Panasonic Lumix DC-S5 II Body

The Panasonic Lumix DC-S5 II is a welcome addition to the popular LUMIX S series. This mirrorless camera delivers incredible photo and video performance in an attractive, compact design. The S5 II features a 24 Megapixel 35mm full-frame CMOS sensor that lets in plenty of light and produces razor-sharp images. Combined with the advanced image processor, the sensor delivers outstanding image quality for both photo and video.

Reliable Autofocus and stabilisation

The redesigned image sensor introduces, for the first time in the LUMIX line-up, hybrid phase-detection Autofocus. This hybrid Autofocus system combines phase detection with contrast detection for fast and reliable focus. The new system can easily recognise subjects even in challenging conditions such as low light. Once focus is locked, it continues to track the subject across the frame. Continuous Autofocus is also available when zooming in, as well as AF micro adjustments.

The LUMIX S5 II features significantly improved Image stabilisation, so you can capture stable, sharp shots even when shooting handheld. Active Image stabilisation is particularly useful in demanding conditions — such as when using a telephoto lens or filming while walking. It also ensures highly stable video by optimising horizontal, vertical, and rotational correction.

Exceptional video performance

This mirrorless camera offers exceptional video performance comparable to the LUMIX S1H. Shoot in 4:2:0 10-bit 6K (3:2) and 5.9K (16:9) at 30fps, and 4:2:2 C4K/4K at 60fps. Record effortlessly in High Frame Rate mode at up to 120fps and in slow motion at up to 180fps. A range of colour profiles are supported, including 14+ stop V-Log and V-Gamut. The REAL TIME LUT function lets you upload colour correction LUTs to an SD card and apply them directly in-camera rather than in post-production. Professional videographers will also appreciate features such as Waveform Monitor, Vector Scope, and Zebra Pattern. Additional features like System Frequency (24.00Hz) and Synchro Scan make this camera well suited for professional use.

Excellent photos with minimal workflow

The camera offers a range of options to help you achieve excellent results with minimal workflow. Features such as AWB lock, MF assist, and a new Live Crop function provide a highly refined shooting experience. An HDMI Type-A port and USB 3.2 Gen 2 connection offer extensive connectivity options. Thanks to 5GHz Wi-Fi, you can also connect wirelessly to smartphones and tablets quickly and reliably. Dual UHS-II memory card slots ensure you always have plenty of storage space.

Panasonic Lumix L-mount 24-60mm f/2.8

Looking for a versatile zoom lens for your L-mount camera? You've found it! The Panasonic Lumix S-E2460E is a high-quality zoom lens that stands out thanks to its large maximum Aperture of f/2.8 across the entire zoom range. This light-gathering capability not only delivers excellent image quality and beautiful Bokeh effects, but also allows you to shoot at faster Shutter speeds, even in low light — resulting in sharp images with minimal motion blur.

The Focal length is adjustable from 24 to 60mm, making it highly versatile across a wide range of applications: from dynamic landscapes and architecture at 24mm to atmospheric portraits with beautiful background blur at 60mm. All of this in a relatively light and compact lens weighing just 544g — ideal for photographers who are frequently on the move.

A standout feature is the Hybrid Zoom function, which extends the zoom range to an impressive 187mm without changing lenses. This is achieved through a combination of optical zoom and crop zoom, operated directly via the zoom ring.

This lens is also an excellent choice for videographers. Focus breathing — an optical phenomenon where the image slightly zooms in or out when shifting focus from one point to another — is suppressed, resulting in smoother, more professional-looking footage where the frame remains consistent as focus changes. The lens also features a silent Autofocus, which is essential when recording video.

Thanks to an impressively short minimum focusing distance of 19cm (at Focal lengths between 24 and 30mm), you can get close to your subject for greater creative freedom and macro-like imagery.

Finally, this lens is built for tougher conditions: it is dust-, splash-, and frost-resistant (down to -10°C), making it suitable for use in a wide variety of weather conditions.
