Highlights of the Panasonic Lumix S5 II include a new 24MP full-frame sensor and 6K / 30p video recording, with virtually all video options available in 10-bit. What’s more, the S5 II isn’t limited to 16:9 video aspect ratio (or wider) like most cameras, but can record from the full sensor area, which in the S5 II is 3:2 aspect ratio.
This camera with a 20-60mm lens is a formidable pairing. Together, they're a well-made and compact combo that cover most stills and video scenarios, the wider-than-normal angle of view being particularly helpful for filmmaking. The full-frame ‘S’ lens range is coming together nicely, too.
The Panasonic Lumix S5 II is a fantastic camera for photographers, and it's also perfectly suited to videographers. With uncropped 6K 30p recording and excellent image stabilization, run-and-gun filmmakers have everything they need.
The S5 II is also great for those filming portrait video for social media. It can record uncropped video from the full 3:2 aspect ratio sensor, meaning no unnecessary loss of detail when shooting in narrower aspect ratios than the industry-standard 16:9.
