Master Your Creative Universe
A true triple threat with incredible quality in still photography, movie production, and unlimited live broadcast. LUMIX S5IIX offers unparalleled flexibility and reliability in both photo and video. Packed with features that inspire and empower dynamic storytelling, and powerful performance accessible to beginners and masters alike.
High Connectivity for Incredible Visual Expression
With the LUMIX S5IIX, recording and playback are supported using an external SSD via USB. In addition, the ability to record ProRes 422 HQ (max 1.9Gbps) and 4:2:2 10-bit All-Intra directly to SSDs, which combines portability and high capacity has improved efficiency in data backup and post-processing.
Go Live - Anytime, Anywhere
Choose your favorite streaming approach to share your latest in real time. For outdoor use, wireless live streaming (RTMP or RTMPS) is easy to set up with the LUMIX Sync app. For indoor use, highly stable wired live streaming (RTP or RTSP) is also available.
Raw Power
Shoot in 5.9K 12bit in Apple ProRes RAW or BRAW when using a compatible Atomos or Blackmagic external recorder.
Autofocus Got Your Focus 779 Times Over
With 779 points of autofocus, the first Phase Detection Autofocus system from LUMIX delivers clear images with speed and accuracy to help you capture your target subject even in the most challenging scenes including those in which multiple subjects are involved, and in backlit or low-light environments.
Image Stabilization Stability Where It Counts
New Active IS 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 IS can compensate for even significant camera shake approximately 200 percent more than conventional systems.
Full Sensor Open Gate Flexible Framing
Nowadays everyone needs to prepare content for multiple aspect ratios. By utilizing the full sensor area and allowing for customizable frame markers, the S5IIX lets you confidently capture content with all final deliverables in mind.
Real-Time LUT See Your Vision Come to Life
Choose from the library of LUTs or add your own, then apply in the 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.
Camera to Cloud Seamless Workflow
Adobe Camera to Cloud enables recorded content to be directly uploaded to the Frame.io platform from the camera through Wi-Fi or USB tethering, for seamless sharing of captured photos (JPEG or RAW) and Proxy videos, enabling remote checking and joint editing using non-linear editing software.
Burst Shooting to Never Miss the Moment
LUMIX S5IIX 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.
Heat Management for Unlimited Recording Time
An optimized heat dissipation structure enables extended recording even when shooting in high resolution. 4:2:2 10-bit C4K or 4K 60p or 50p unlimited recording time from 0 to 104 degrees F.
