The G2 is the 2nd generation lavalier wireless microphone system of SYNCO running at 2.4GHz band. It is reborn with a TFT display, making all key indicators (battery status, audio level etc.) seeable. It continues processing the input audio via patented technology and sending clean, clear audio based on 2.4GHz digital transmission technology. Similar to the G1, this wireless microphone system also comes in 2 forms, including a 1-to-1 G2(A1) and the 1-to-2 G2(A2) models. The G2 is an excellent wireless mic solution for content creators in every field: stage performers, on-camera presenters, vloggers and more.

The new LUMIX S Series compact lens with L-Mount, 50mm fixed focal length and f/1.8 aperturewill go on sale in July. The ED and UHR elements used reduce chromatic defects and thus improve colour rendering; very good drawing throughout the image area ensures sufficient optical performance for 4K/6K video recording. The lens also features a linear, silent autofocus motor to suppress "breathing", a nine-blade aperture with very smooth operation, and a dust-, moisture- and freeze-resistant construction. Panasonic is also preparing 24mm f/1.8 and 35mm f/1.8 models with the same dimensions (the 85mm f/1.8 is already on sale).
