The Panasonic Lumix DC-GH5 is a digital, mirrorless system camera housing of the manufacturer-independent Micro-Four-Thirds-System . It is the successor to the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH4 and was presented in autumn 2016 and introduced at the end of March 2017. It is the first mirrorless system camera that can record films at a data transfer rate of up to 400 megabits per second or 3 gigabytes per minute and in 6K mode (18 megapixels per image). It also allows 4: 2: 2 color subsampling and a color depth of 10 bits. The sister model Panasonic Lumix DC-GH5S , presented at the beginning of 2018, is equipped with only 10 million pixels and allows the use of higher exposure indices .
technical features
The camera housing of the Panasonic Lumix made of magnesium alloy is equipped with a swiveling and folding, touch-sensitive monitor , an electronic viewfinder with dioptric compensation , a hot shoe .
In addition to the lenses with a Micro Four Thirds bayonet catch, almost all lenses with a sufficiently large image circle can be connected via lens adapters due to the small flange focal length of 20 millimeters .
The GH5 camera housing works exclusively in live view mode for both still and moving images with manual distance setting with a software magnifying glass or with a versatile autofocus system with contrast measurement that can also recognize faces and track motifs. With the help of the electronic shutter , still pictures can be recorded practically noiselessly.
The camera can be controlled and read out by smartphones , tablet PCs or mobile and stationary computers via a WLAN connection . The free Lumix Tether software is available for remote control with a computer ( tethered shooting ) with the Microsoft Windows and iOS operating systems .
