About it

Step up to the professional grade Panasonic LUMIX GH5s C4K mirrorless camera that offers over 29 LUMIX and LEICA compact lens options built on the next-generation (ILC) interchangeable lens camera standard [Micro Four Thirds] pioneered by Panasonic. Its "mirrorless" design enables the high performance, durability, mobility, and low light gathering needed for professional Cinematic and Anamorphic 4K video production. The LUMIX GH5s includes cutting-edge C4K: 60p50p 4:2:0 8-bit, 30p25p24p 4:2:2 10-bit, 4K: 60p50p 4:2:0 8-bit, 30p25p24p 4:2:2 10-bit recording with unlimited recording.

Plus simultaneously feed 4:2:2 10-bit real-time image output through its full-size HDMI port (Type A) to an external monitor or recorder. It is suitable for professional video making that requires accurate monitoring of the imagery or high quality recording to external codec devices (such as ProRes). 400Mbps (ALL-Intra) high bitrate recording mode is also available. A cable lock holder for the HDMI cable is bundled with the LUMIX GH5s to prevent cable disconnection problems. C4K/4K 4:2:2 10-bit 60p/50p video is output only. 3,680k-dot, Large OLED LVF A super high-resolution 3,680k-dot OLED LVF (Live View Finder) provides improved visibility, even under direct sunlight. Plus a high 0.76x magnification (35mm camera equivalent) clarifies image detail, and a smooth display at 120-fps with minimal time lag. Anamorphic Video Mode Ideal for recording with 'squeezed' cinematic filmmaking lenses. In anamorphic desqueeze display mode, images are displayed in a cinemascope aspect ratio. Wave Form Monitor & Vectorscope To check brightness, luminance or chroma color balance. Like709 Gamma (ITU-R BT.709) & Knee Control Broadcast flexibility for post-production. Luminance Level 64-1023 / 64-940 / 0-1023 (10-bit) For choice of video luma levels Bluetooth 4.2 and Wi-Fi�� 5GHz Panasonic's LUMIX Image App for Android / iOS through Bluetooth 4.2 (Low Energy) enables remote shutter release, and video record Start / Stop. Plus this full-time connection between the camera and mobile device consumes less energy. After shooting, it automatically switches to a fast Wi-Fi 5GHz (IEEE802.11ac) connection to transfer data to your mobile device of JPEG and RAW files. DMW-BGGH5 Battery Grip By using two batteries-one in the camera and the other in the grip-exclusively designed for the GH5 and GH5s, the optional DMW-BGGH5 doubles the battery life for extended shooting. It also makes gripping more comfortable during vertical shooting. Exclusively designed for the LUMIX GH5s, the DMW-BGGH5 perfectly matches the camera, boasting splash/dust/freeze-proof rugged design with a joystick controller.
