Panasonic DC-S5 II + S 20-60mm + S 70-300mm f4.5-5.6

Panasonic DC-S5 II

With its outstanding photo and video performance and an amazingly compact and robust body, the LUMIX DC-S5M2 meets the high demands of creative photo and video enthusiasts while offering exceptional value for money.

The S5M2 is based on a newly developed full-frame CMOS sensor with 24 megapixels and an equally new image processor, which was developed as part of the L² technology partnership between LEICA and LUMIX. For the first time, the sensor in the LUMIX system supports phase detection in addition to contrast-based autofocus and combines both focusing methods to create a new hybrid phase detection AF. In addition, the new processor offers outstanding image quality and video performance with high bit rate or 6K resolution.

Panasonic LUMIX S 20-60mm F3.5-5.6

The LUMIX S 20-60mm F3.5-5.6 is a robust, lightweight standard Zoom lens with a focal length from 20mm ultra-wide angle to 60mm for versatile use - from dynamic landscape shots to portraits. The wide angle of view also facilitates indoor shooting and the impressive close-up limit of 0.15 m (maximum magnification 0.43x) extends its use in product photography. The new LUMIX S Zoom also ensures high-quality video recording by minimizing focus breathing in the best possible way.

Thanks to its compact design and low weight of around 350 g, it does not compromise the photographer's mobility. It is characterized by a dust- and splash-resistant design* and can be used in the most adverse conditions down to -10°C. In addition, a fluorine coating on the front element repels water and oil. The filter diameter is 67 mm and the lens has nine blades for a virtually circular aperture.

The lens consists of 11 elements in 9 groups and uses 2 aspherical lenses and 3 ED (Extra-low Dispersion) lenses to suppress both axial chromatic aberration and chromatic magnification difference. Astigmatism can also be corrected with these aspherical lenses, resulting in high resolution performance. Furthermore, the UHR lens (Ultra-High Refractive Index) enables uniform image quality from the center to the edges of the image and ensures a compact design.

The dual stabilization system (Dual I.S.) of this telephoto zoom also combines the O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) of the lens with the stabilizer in the cameras of the LUMIX S series and thus compensates for camera shake, enabling a shutter speed that is 5.5 f-stops slower. The focus control with a maximum 480 fps high-speed sensor drive realizes fast, high-precision autofocus.

With an outstanding minimum focusing distance of 0.54m or 0.74m, the LUMIX S 70-300mm F4.5-5.6 MACRO O.I.S. achieves a maximum magnification of 0.5x (at 300mm) and thus enables macro photography and videos at half life size. The rounded aperture with its 11 blades ensures a particularly attractive bokeh over the entire Zoom range.

Nevertheless, the LUMIX S 70-300mm F4.5-5.6 MACRO O.I.S. is compact and lightweight, allowing for comfortable mobility. The robust, dust and splash-proof construction also withstands use in harsh conditions, even at -10° C. The fluorine coating on the front element is also water and oil repellent. The filter diameter is 77 mm.

The optimum arrangement of 17 lens elements in 11 groups with one UED lens (Ultra Extra-low Dispersion), two ED lenses (Extra-low Dispersion) and one UHR lens (Ultra-High Refractive Index) effectively suppresses both axial chromatic aberration at the telephoto end and chromatic aberration at the magnification end at shorter focal lengths. The UHR lens in particular achieves uniform image quality from the center to the edges of the image while contributing to the compact size of the lens.

All LUMIX S-series lenses feature a mechanism that minimizes "focus breathing" for videographers when shooting video - a phenomenon that occurs when using interchangeable lenses designed primarily for still image creation. In addition, the focus shift during Zooming is suppressed so that the subject remains in focus and better video recordings are possible.
