Main features

• 24.2 megapixel CMOS sensor with two native ISO values Offers stunning image quality with a wide dynamic range that captures rich detail and vivid colours even in challenging lighting conditions. Dual Native ISO technology ensures exceptional low-light performance and minimal noise.
• 4K 60p/50p 10-bit video and RAW output Offers 4K video capture at up to 60p/50p with 10-bit depth and supports RAW output to external recorders, providing high-quality footage and flexibility for post-production.
• DJI LiDAR compatibility for accurate auto-focusing Designed to seamlessly pair with DJI's LiDAR rangefinder module and DJI RS 3 Pro gimbal, the S5D utilises LiDAR's 43,200-point rangefinder for fast and accurate autofocusing, even in low light. This eliminates the need for a focus motor, allowing the most compact hardware to be built without compromising accuracy:
  • No calibration is required: Save time with plug-and-play compatibility.
  • Improved focus in low light:* LiDAR improves focus accuracy in low light conditions, making it easier to take complex shots.
• 14+ stops of dynamic range and V-Log/V-Gamut support Offering extensive colour adjustment options and cinematic depth of field, it supports the industry standard V-Log/V-Gamut, ideal for high-quality video and film projects.
• improved stability with Dual I.S.2 The body's 5-axis I.S. pairs with the lens' O.I.S. for effective stabilisation, allowing stable shots even when handheld or in low light.
• Compact, durable design Weighing just over a kilo, the S5D is lightweight but durable, and its magnesium alloy body is weatherproof to withstand demanding shooting environments.
• Additional features for creative flexibility Includes real-time LUT support for in-camera colour correction, multi-angle framing options and extended connectivity options via 5GHz Wi-Fi and compatibility with the LUMIX Lab app for remote control and image transfer.

With its compact design, advanced DJI LiDAR compatibility and professional-grade video and photography capabilities, the Panasonic LUMIX S5D is designed to empower filmmakers who want top results without the space of traditional film equipment. Ideal for both handheld and stabilized stills, it is the perfect tool for versatile, on-the-go production.
