Panasonic announced that it has developed a new Digital Single Lens Mirrorless (DSLM) camera LUMIX GH5 that is capable of recording smooth, high-precision 4K 60p/50p and faithful 4:2:2 10-bit 4K video (4K/30p, 25p, 24p, and 23.98p)! It also features 6K PHOTO which cuts approx.18-megapixel still images out of a 4:3 or 3:2 video footage. Taking advantage of its high-speed, long-time burst shooting capability, spur-of-the-moment shots can be saved in beautiful photos with higher resolution that complies with larger-sized printing by substantially increasing the resolution from approx.8-megapixel (4K PHOTO) to approx.18-megapixel (6K PHOTO). Furthermore, approx.8-megapixel 4K PHOTO can be captured at 60 fps. The new LUMIX GH5 is scheduled for commercialization and introduction to the global market in early 2017. Panasonic has also introduced the new LEICA DG VARIO-ELMARIT F2.8-4.0 lens series for the M43 format. Achieving both high optical performance and a compact size, the LEICA DG VARIO-ELMARIT F2.8-4.0 series includes a new 12-60mm standard zoom lens, 8-18mm wide zoom lens and 50-200mm telephoto zoom lens. No release date has been announced, yet.
