POINTS OF AUTOFOCUS

The first Phase Detection Autofocus system from LUMIX delivers speed and accuracy to help you capture your target subject even in the most challenging scenes were multiple subjects are involved, as well as in backlit or low-light environments.

IMAGE STABILIZATION

Stability where it counts.

New Active I.S. lets you walk and shoot with the smoothness of a gimbal. By determining the status of camera shake and optimizing horizontal, vertical and rotational correctional ratios, Active I.S. can compensate for even significant camera shake.

See your vision come to life.

Choose from our library of LUTs or add your own, then apply in camera (for both photo and video) to make sure you achieve the look you are going for as well as reduce time in post-production.

HIGH RESOLUTION MODE

Capture every detail

The LUMIX S5II automatically captures eight consecutive images while shifting the sensor, and the new engine's high-speed signal processing smoothly synthesies them into a 96-megapixel equivalent (12,000 x 8,000 px) image.

30FPS BURST SHOOTING

Never miss the moment

LUMIX S5II delivers AFC burst shooting using the electronic shutter at 30 frames per second with 24.2mp resolution. The sensor's higher readout speed also minimizes rolling shutter distortion and captures images too fast for the naked eye to process.
