Venus Engine Beauty

The CMOS sensor and the Venus Engine reproduce extraordinary color detail and natural texture expression. Multipixel Luminance Generation and Intelligent Detail Processing render intense brightness and contrast. The Three-Dimensional Color Control zings with rich colors from dark to bright shades, and high-precision Multi Process NR makes your images pop even at high sensitivity settings.

5-axis Dual I.S. 2

Combining the Body I.S. (5-axis) in the camera and the O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer, 2-axis) in the LUMIX S Series lens,* the 5-axis Dual I.S. 2 compensates for blurring even powerfully, allowing the use of a 7-stop slower shutter speed. ** The astonishing power of the 5-axis Body I.S. with 5.5-stop compensation power*** corrects shake for all lenses, even those not equipped with O.I.S.
* 5-axis Dual I.S.2 can be used with the lens S-R24105, S-E70200, S-R70200 and S-R70300 as of February 18th, 2021. ** Based on the CIPA standard (Yaw/Pitch direction: focusing distance f=200mm when S-E70200 is used). *** Based on the CIPA standard (Yaw/Pitch direction: focusing distance f=50mm when S-X50 is used).

4K 60p/50p Smooth Video

In combination, Panasonic’s 4K technology, CMOS sensor, and Venus Engine deliver spectacular 4K 60p/50p video in a full-frame format.* The outstanding heat dissipation allows offer both 4K 30p/25p/24p and FHD recording with no time limit.**
* Maximum recording time of 29 minutes 59 seconds in 4K 60p/50p. ** Excludes high-speed video recording. When the ambient temperature is high or continuous recording is performed, the camera may stop the recording to protect itself. Wait until the camera cools down.

NOTE

  • NOTE

    • (*2) About motion picture recording / 6K PHOTO/4K PHOTO recording
      - 6K PHOTO is a high speed burst shooting function that cuts a still image out of a 4:3 or 3:2 video footage with approx. 18-megapixel (approx. 6000 x 3000 effective pixel count) that the 6K image manages.
      - Use an SD memory card with SD Speed Class with ""Class 4"" or higher when recording motion pictures in [AVCHD].
      - Use an XQD or SD memory card with SD Speed Class with ""Class 4"" or higher when recording motion pictures in [MP4(under 28Mbps)].
      - Use an XQD or SD memory card with SD Speed Class with ""UHS-I / UHS-II UHS Speed Class 3 (U3)"" when recording motion pictures with [MP4] in [4K] [High Speed Video], [MOV] or [6K PHOTO/4K PHOTO].
      (SD speed class is the speed standard regarding continuous writing.)
      - Recording stops when the continuous recording time exceeds 10 minutes with [6K PHOTO].
      - Recording stops when the continuous recording time exceeds 15 minutes with [6K], [5.9K], [5.4K], [High Speed Video] or [4K PHOTO].
      - Recording stops when the continuous recording time exceeds 29 minutes and 59 seconds with [C4K/60p], [C4K/50p], [4K/60p], [4K/50p] or [4K-A 50p].
      - Motion pictures with [MP4] in [4K] or [MOV]:
      - When using an XQD memory card of 32 GB or less, or an SDHC memory card: You can continue recording without interruption even if the file size exceeds 4 GB, but the motion picture file will be divided and recorded/played back separately.
      - When using an XQD memory card over 32 GB, or an SDXC memory card: You can continue recording without interruption even if the file size exceeds 96 GB or 3 hours 4 minutes in length, but the motion picture file will be divided and recorded/played back separately.
      - Motion pictures with [MP4] in [FHD]:
      - You can continue recording without interruption even if the file size exceeds 4 GB or 30 minutes in length, but the motion picture file will be divided and recorded/played back separately.
      - When the ambient temperature is high or continuous recording is performed, the camera may stop the recording to protect itself. Wait until the camera cools down.
      - XQD is a registered trademark of Sony Corporation.

      (*3) For [4K/60p] [4K/50p] video output, use an HDMI2.0 cable that has the HDMI logo on it, and that is described as""4K compatible"".

      (*4) The camera may stop recording when used in lower or higher than recommended operating temperature: -10 to 40 degrees.

      (*5) Upgrade Software Key (DMW-SFU2) is required.

      (*6) Firmware must be updated to version 1.2 or later.

      (*7) Firmware must be updated to version 1.3 or later.

      (*8) Firmware must be updated to version 1.5 or later.

      (*9) Firmware must be updated to version 1.6 or later.

      (*10) Firmware must be updated to version 2.0 or later.
