  • Key Specs
    • Image Sensor Size: 35mm Full Frame (36 x 24 mm)
    • Effective Pixels: 24.2 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
    • Standardized Video Resolution: 4K (2160p) (An approximated measurement of the product’s video resolution. This may not be the exact resolution of the product, which may be slightly more or less when using a pixel-by-pixel measurement.)
  • General
    • Brand: Panasonic
    • Model Number: DC-S5BODY
    • Product Name: LUMIX S5 Mirrorless Camera Body - DC-S5BODY
    • Color: Black
    • Product Set: BODY
    • Camera Model Family: Panasonic Lumix S
    • Digital Camera Type: Mirrorless Camera Body Only
  • Imaging
    • Image Sensor Type: NMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
    • Image Sensor Size: 35mm Full Frame (36 x 24 mm)
    • Digital Zoom: 2x (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
    • Low Light/High Sensitivity: true (High sensitivity digital imaging devices are designed to work in low light conditions to produce a high dynamic range image.)
  • Focus
    • Autofocus: true (Allows the camera to automatically focus through the lens, rather than by adjusting the lens manually.)
    • Eye Autofocus (Eye AF): true (Automatically seeks out and focuses on the subject's eye and holds it as the camera and subject move and as the photographer shoots at high frame rates.)
  • Exposure Control
    • Shutter Speeds: Bulb (Max 30 minutes), 60-1/8000 (The length of time the shutter remains open when the shutter release is activated, expressed in fractions of seconds. The longer the shutter is open, the more light that is able to be captured by the camera sensor.)
    • Minimum Aperture: f/5.6 (The smallest opening of a lens, typically expressed in f-numbers. The larger the number, the smaller the aperture and the less light that can enter the lens. A smaller aperture creates a larger depth of field, which keeps both foreground and background in focus.)
    • Maximum Aperture: f/3.5 (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)
    • Burst Rate: 30 frames per second
    • Self Timer: true
    • White Balance Modes: yes (Settings that calibrates how the color white is rendered in an image/video, reducing the appearance of unnatural contrasts caused by various light sources.)
    • Effective Pixels: 24.2 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
  • Lens
    • Lens Type: Standard Zoom
    • Minimum Focal Length: 20 millimeters (The minimum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The shorter the focal length, the greater the area of scene captured.)
    • Maximum Focal Length: 60 millimeters (The maximum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The greater the focal length, the smaller the area of scene captured.)
    • Lens Series: Panasonic Lumix S (The product group that the lens belongs to, based on similar shared features.)
    • Lens Model Number: S-R2060
  • Flash
    • Integrated Flash: true
  • Display
    • Display Type: LCD
    • Screen Size: 3 inches (Size of the screen, measured diagonally from corner to corner.)
    • Touch Screen: true (Touch-screen devices make navigating more intuitive. Using a touch-screen display, you can do things such as tap to select, hold and drag to move items, swipe to scroll, and pinch to zoom.)
  • Video
    • Standardized Video Resolution: 4K (2160p) (An approximated measurement of the product’s video resolution. This may not be the exact resolution of the product, which may be slightly more or less when using a pixel-by-pixel measurement.)
    • Video Resolution(s) and Frame Rate(s): 4K (2160p) video recording (Refers to the number of pixels, both horizontally and vertically, and the frame rate used to capture the video. The higher the resolution the finer the video detail that can be seen. The faster the frame rate the smoother the playback for higher motion activities like sports.)
    • Slow Motion Recording: true
    • HD Movie Mode Focus: Automatic
  • Compatibility
    • Memory Card Compatibility: Secure Digital, Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC), Secure Digital Extended Capacity (SDXC) (The type of memory card(s) recommended for use with the product.)

  • Rated 5 out of 5 stars

    One of my favorite cameras I've used

    It’s hard to think of a better value per dollar for a full frame camera that does professional-grade video and photos. To get a similar performing camera from other brands, it can cost multiple times the price. Especially compared to Canon, Panasonic cameras always felt more complete and this is no exception. It feels like a complete camera, not a compromised one. The recording formats offer so many options (like the 4K/6K photo mode I never knew I needed) it encourages you to try new styles of filming. I don't have to think about recording limits or other quirks. It just works. Image quality is stunning and it’s easier to color grade video footage. Even the basic styles (the non RAW or LOG formats) appear to have improved dynamic range from their past cameras and can be lightly graded. Based on initial tests, the color matches well with the MFT line of Panasonic cameras, particularly the newer ones released in the last 2 years. I’ve owned cinema cameras in the past that can’t even pull this level of image, so it’s a technical marvel.

    So many Video Feature for the Price!

    I think Lumix is very underrated and it's an amazing system for Video. The S5 is a mini S1H and is the Size of a GH5 but is Full Frame. It holds a lot of features for the price like using a 6K Sensor but downsampling to 4K but you can attach an Atomos Ninja V to be able to shoot in 5.9K ProRes RAW. No other camera at this price point offers that. There Anamorphic Lens Support, Angle/ISO, Histogram, Vectorscope, Luminance Spot Meter, V-LOG, 1080p 180fps, and the list just goes on. This camera is really getting close to the cinema world for a fraction of the price and it offers so much more feature then a Sony and a Canon
