Panasonic DC-S5 IIX + S 20-60mm f3.5-5.6 + S 24mm f1.8

Panasonic DC-S5 II X

With

its exclusive black design and outstanding video functions, the LUMIX S5M2X is the perfect camera for the modern photo/video creator who has the highest demands on both photo and video. And thanks to its compact, robust housing and built-in fan, it is a reliable companion even in the most extreme situations and is always ready to shoot.

The S5M2X 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. The new Hybrid Phase Detection AF ensures fast and precise focusing

,

and thanks to the new processor, the S5M2X sets new standards for video in its price class

. For example,

it offers 4K60p 4:2:2 10-bit, Apple ProRes, ALL-Intra, USB-SSD recording or advanced streaming functions.

USB-SSD recording
USB-SSD recording is for photographers and videographers who want to improve the efficiency of data backup and post-production

, for example.

• Better heat resistance than internal recording
• Cheaper than SD memory cards
• Can record in high bit rate recording mode

Wireless streaming USB tethering
Live streaming can be easily configured via the LUMIX Sync app (Android / iOS). In environments with a lot of radio interference, stable communication speed can be ensured by connecting the camera to a smartphone via USB.

Wired Streaming
Enjoy highly stable communication with IP streaming via a wired LAN connection indoors. By connecting cameras and PCs via a wired LAN cable, multiple cameras can be controlled for the delivery of high quality video and audio up to 4K 60p / 50p. H.264 and H.265 codecs are selectable

.

Live View composition
For photographers working with light in dark environments, e.g. starry skies. Only the illuminated subjects are captured, e.g. to show the light trails of stars and fireworks

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 of 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 LUMIX S Zoom also ensures high-quality video recording by minimizing focus breathing as much as possible

.

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. In addition, the UHR (Ultra-High Refractive Index) lens enables uniform image quality from the center to the edges of the image and ensures a compact design.

Panasonic Lumix S 24mm f1.8

The Panasonic Lumix S 24mm f1.8 impresses with its high imaging performance and its 9-blade circular aperture ensures a particularly attractive bokeh. The lens also offers outstanding mobility thanks to its compact size and low weight. It is also characterized by a dust- and splash-resistant design and can be used in the most adverse conditions down to -10° C. As part of the F1.8 lens series, it has the same size and position of controls and the same 67mm filter diameter for intuitive and consistent handling. Finally, it also ensures high-quality video by suppressing focus breathing

.

Sophisticated lens design for best image quality

The LUMIX S 24mm F1.8 lens consists of twelve lens elements in eleven groups, including three aspherical lenses, three ED (Extra-Low Dispersion) lenses and one UED (Ultra Extra-Low Dispersion) lens. The use of three aspherical lenses and nine circular aperture blades enables both high imaging performance and an attractive bokeh effect with smooth sharpness/blur transitions. The ED lenses and the UED lens effectively suppress chromatic aberration

.

Finally, during the joint development of the F1.8 lenses, emphasis was placed on a uniform image appearance as a further quality feature

.

Particularly fine eye when focusing

The LUMIX S 24mm F1.8 works quickly and silently with the camera's high-precision contrast AF system at a maximum of 240 fps. When using manual focusing, a non-linear or linear setting can be selected for the focus ring. In the non-linear setting, the focus is shifted by a variable amount according to the rotational speed of the focus ring, e.g. to switch more quickly between focus areas. Whereas in the linear setting, the focus is always shifted linearly according to the angle of rotation of the focus ring. The entire focus range can be traversed in 90 to 360 degrees (adjustable in 30 degree increments) in the linear setting
