Panasonic Lumix GH5 Mark II Mirrorless Camera with Leica DG Vario-Elmarit 12-60mm f/2.8-4 Lens

Boasting updated video capabilities and a refined design, the Panasonic Lumix GH5 II Mark II provides a professional-quality imaging platform for shooters who demand versatile video and stills capabilities in a single compact camera. Featuring a 20.3MP Live MOS sensor with coating, the camera records DCI and UHD 4K with the full sensor area and can output 10-bit 4:2:0 internally up to 60p, or 4:2:2 at 30p. The GH5 II offers unlimited video recording for less downtime when filming, and the camera ships with pre-installed V-Log L for multi-camera recording, making it easy to match the color tone with the footage recorded by other VariCam-series cameras. The included DMW-BLK22 battery provides approximately 410 shots per charge when using the rear monitor or electronic viewfinder, and the high-capacity battery can be quickly charged with the bundled USB 3.1 type-c cable. You can also supply continuous power to the camera while shooting photos and video via the included USB cable. This is a certified refurbished product backed by a 90-day warranty.

Stunning Image Quality

A 3-inch 1.84m-dot rear TFT LCD monitor provides flexible framing, high visibility, and vivid color to support viewing from a variety of angles. An updated 5-axis sensor stabilization system works with Lumix O.I.S lenses to activate Dual I.S. 2 for highly effective shake correction. Previously limited to 5 stops of shake reduction, this now means you can compensate for up to 6.5 stops of shutter speed. A Depth-from-Defocus autofocus system benefits both still and video recording modes to ensure fast and precise focus.

Human Face Detection

The GH5 II features a human face, eye, head, body, and animal recognition. Deep Learning technology detects the eye and faces approximately twice as fast as the GH5 allowing you to concentrate on the composition of your photos and videos.

Easy-to-Use Lumix Sync App

Designed for today’s creators and audiences, the easy-to-use Lumix Sync app for smartphones and tablets provides high-quality live streaming with minimum equipment. Livestreaming via a router is available as well with Lumix Network Setting Software. Whether indoors or outdoors, only the camera and a smartphone are required to reach an audience, making the GH5 II an ideal camera for electronic news gathering, travel, event, lecture, and live commerce applications.

20.3MP Digital Live MOS Sensor with Coating and Venus Engine

Featuring a 20.3MP Digital Live MOS sensor with a newly developed Coating, the GH5 II boasts an evolved Venus Engine Imaging Processor. These updates suppress ghosting and flare in backlit scenes, offer a 25 percent increase in dynamic range, and improve color gradation and reproduction. Multipixel Luminance Generation technology maximizes sharpness and faithfully reproduces brightly illuminated scenes. It offers excellent three-dimension color control and precise noise reduction techniques for shooting at sensitivities up to ISO 25600. It also enables shooting speeds up to 12 fps with AF-S or manual focus modes.

4K Video Recording

The GH5 II features outstanding video performance for professional videography and is capable of unlimited video recording in various settings. It can record DCI and UHD 4K 60p 4:2:0 10-bit and simultaneously output 4:2:2 10-bit over HDMI during 4K 60p 4:2:0 10-bit internal recording. An HDMI port is present on the camera for high-quality output for use with external monitors and recorders. The camera also offers high bit-rate recording for highly detailed images free of compression artifacts.

Wireless and Wired Livestreaming

Designed for ENG, travel, event, lecture, and live commerce applications, the easy-to-use Lumix Sync app provides high-quality live streaming with minimum equipment. Whether indoors or outdoors, only a camera and a smartphone are required. Livestreaming via a router is available as well with Lumix Network Setting Software. Additionally, wired USB-LAN IP live streaming will be supported by a future firmware update.

Dual I.S. 2

Helping to achieve the utmost sharpness when photographing handheld, an enhanced Dual I.S. 2 system combines the camera’s sensor-shift image stabilization technology with lens-based image stabilization to compensate for a broad range of movement types and renders sharper, clearer imagery. Dual I.S. 2 requires the use of compatible Lumix lenses featuring O.I.S., and this updated stabilization system enables the GH5 Mark II to compensate for 6.5 stops of camera shake.

Body Design

A large OLED Live View Finder has an impressive 3.68m-dot resolution and 0.76x magnification for eye-level composition. A larger means for image composition and playback, the 3-inch 1.84m-dot rear TFT LCD monitor has a free-angle, tilt-and-swivel design to support viewing from a variety of angles. It is also a touchscreen, which permits intuitive menu navigation and settings control. Constructed from magnesium alloy with die-cast front and rear frames, the GH5 II features a durable design that also incorporates extensive sealing at each joint, dial, and button to render it both splash and dustproof as well as freezeproof to 14-degree-F.

Leica DG Vario-Elmarit 12-60mm f/2.8-4 ASPH. POWER O.I.S. Lens

Spanning a useful wide-angle to short telephoto range, and designed in collaboration with Leica, this versatile lens utilizes four aspherical elements and two extra-low dispersion elements to deliver well-corrected and sharp image quality that is void of color fringing and distortions. The lens makes use of a linear motor for fast, quiet, and precise autofocus performance, and the Power Optical Image Stabilizer system minimizes the appearance of a camera shake for sharper handheld shooting. Additionally, the durable metal body of the lens renders it splash, dust, and freezeproof to suit its use in trying environmental conditions.
