Active IS also supports an enhanced video stabilization.<\/li>\n<li>Built tough and for use in all of natures elements. The Lumix S5II(X) is dust and liquid resistant with a camera body made from a full die-cast magnesium alloy frame.\u00a0 Your camera and content are protected with sealing added to all joints, corners, dials, and buttons.\u00a0 This is a camera built for longevity.<\/li>\n<li>Supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 with double UHS-II card slots.<\/li>\n<li>Relay and backup recording options.<\/li>\n<li>Large 3.68 million dot OLED Live View Finder with high magnification ratio (1.52x\/.76x 35mm equivalent).<\/li>\n<li>3-inch free angle touch control monitor in 3:2 with 1.8 million dot resolution.<\/li>\n<li>Optimized design with 8-directional joystick and drive dial including a position for High Resolution 96 MP mode for JPEG\/RAW.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Lumix S5IIX \u2013 The Panasonic Lumix S5IIX version possesses everything the S5II features, but with extra enhancements specifically designed for videographers looking for a more professional video recording feature set.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>RAW video output provides more flexibility for professionals who do a lot of postproduction editing.<\/li>\n<li>The S5IIX allows video recording and playback to SSD via USB.<\/li>\n<li>14+ stop V-Log\/V-Gamut capture delivers a high dynamic range and broad colors; in-camera photo and video color grading; 5.8K Pro-Res, Pro-Res internal, RAW over HDM<\/li>\n<li>Wireless or Wired IP streaming (perfect for vloggers and videographers)<\/li>\n<li>All I Codecs \u2013 Allows for higher quality individual frames but will create larger size files.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>On Sensor Phase Detection<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One upgrade that makes the Panasonic\u2019s new Lumix S5II and S5IIX stand out is the on sensor phase detection system which enables subject recognition, auto focusing, and auto tracking.\u00a0 Panasonic is pulling out all the stops as this is the first time they\u2019re incorporating this technology into their mirrorless cameras.<\/p>\n<p>Phase detection creates a second image to pull information and data from.\u00a0 Think of it as giving your camera a second eye to see, to keep everything in focus and with the proper brightness, just like people use two eyes to see.\u00a0 This enables the Lumix S5II and S5IIX to produce higher resolutions for photography and videography in all settings, light or dark.\u00a0 Phase detection enhances the cameras capabilities in many ways.\u00a0 Particularly, it allows the camera to determine the depth and distance within your frame which results in accurate focusing and subject tracking.\u00a0 Additionally, it helps maintain the focus on your subject without overshooting, which is a very attractive feature for videographers who record while moving or walking.<\/p>\n<p>With 3 powerfully accurate recognition modes, the Lumix S5II and S5IIX gives you the option to capture your shot exactly as you envision.\u00a0 Panasonic incorporated algorithms for each distinct recognition mode which allows you to prioritize whether to track and focus animals or humans, body and head features, or faces and eyes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>New Imaging Processor<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Co-developed and designed in partnership between Panasonic and Leica, the Lumix S5II comes with a new processor that helps you create the magic.\u00a0 The new Imaging Engine compliments the 24.2MP full frame CMOS sensor by offering twice as fast signal processing speeds for high bit rate recording.\u00a0 With quicker speeds, higher resolutions, and processing power, the Lumix S5II offers over 14 stops of dynamic range in V-Log and V-Gamut codecs.\u00a0 It also allows for higher speed burst shooting at 9(AFS)\/7(AFC)fps using a mechanical shutter and 30fps (AFS\/AFC) using e-shutter in JPEG\/RAW.\u00a0 Plus, the S5II now has DUAL Native ISO to keep your images vivid and beautiful even in low light settings.\u00a0 More power and faster processing speeds help the Lumix S5II(X) achieve better color depths and detail during photoshoots and when editing postproduction.<\/p>\n<p><strong>REAL TIME LUT<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>LUT, which stands for \u201clook up table\u201d, if a function that lets you save a range of colors that can be applied and transform the range of colors in an image.\u00a0 This is a common practice during postproduction and would generally require a computer.\u00a0 With REAL TIME LUT, the Lumix S5II can store up to 10 different LUT\u2019s which you can then apply to your image in real time.\u00a0 Not needing a computer to perform LUT\u2019s can be a huge time saver, especially if you only intend to edit rendered colors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ACTIVE I.S. (Image Stabilization)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Lumix S5II and S5IIX boast an incredible Active IS system.\u00a0 The 5-axis stabilization system keeps your images and video looking sharp, focused, and polished even when you\u2019re shooting in a highly active setting.\u00a0 Active IS lets the Lumix S5II detect and prioritize any camera movements while photographing or filming.\u00a0 This allows recognition and compensation of any movement, so your stills and video maintain stabilized and in focus.\u00a0 You also get a correction mode which further assists retaining focus when there are moving objects within your frame.\u00a0 When shooting in High Resolution Mode which provides unbelievable detail in 96MP, you will find the Active IS especially helpful in producing a vivid and crisp product.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Heat Dispersion System<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As demand for videography cameras grew, the biggest problem has always been about the camera shutting down from overheating.\u00a0 Panasonic resolved this in a very innovative way that is superior to other cameras, allowing for the Lumix S5II to virtually have unlimited recording (Unlimited time vs extended time).\u00a0 With a small fan, a high efficiency heat sink, and innovative camera design, the Lumix S5II and S5IIX provide heat management to always keep your camera cool.\u00a0 The worst thing is to have a camera shutdown during a shoot.\u00a0 With the Lumix S5II and Lumix S5IIX, you will never have to worry about a common issue videographers have.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Video &amp; Audio Recording<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Lumix S5II and S5IIX is the perfect tool for videographers, content creators, and vloggers.\u00a0 There are many different powerful formats to record in which gives you the option to create content exactly as you imagine.\u00a0 And the heat dispersion system helps you stay focused on your photoshoot with unlimited recording time, and not power and temperature logistics.<\/p>\n<p>The Lumix S5II records in 4:2:2 10-bit C4K\/4K 60p video with options to record in 4:2:0 10-bit 6K\/29.97p LongGOP video via H.265 Codec.\u00a0 Additionally, the S5II features LUT 6K 30p Open Gate which translates to full sensor recording.\u00a0 This opens more format recording possibilities and flexibility when editing.\u00a0 This is a very appealing feature if you like shooting in different aspect ratios.\u00a0 Not to mention the incredible 14+ stop V-Log\/V-Gamut capture dynamic range plus REAL TIME LUT function.<\/p>\n<p>The Lumix S5II also has 4 channels of 96kHz and 24-bit audio when using an external mic or adapter.\u00a0 With crystal clear audio recording to compliment your immersive scenes, your final product will always look polished and professionally produced.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-14942\" src=\"http:\/\/www.buydig.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Picture5.png\" alt=\"Panasonic

\u00a0S5IIX version provides you everything the S5II has to offer but with extra support and features geared towards video recording.<\/p>\n<p>With the Lumix S5IIX you have RAW video output, internal ProRes capture in 422 and 422 HQ, All-I codecs, which are fantastic tools for videographers who spend a lot of time editing postproduction.\u00a0 You also can record SSD via USB, and the Lumix S5IIX supports direct wired or wireless streaming IP.\u00a0 The bottom line is that the video feature set on the S5II are great, but you will get more power, options, accessibility, and efficiency when recording video with the Lumix S5IIX.\u00a0 If you\u2019re a videographer, the S5IIX is for you.<\/p>\n<p>When you compare to other trending cameras such as the Lumix S5II vs Sony a7IV, it is clear which is the better choice.\u00a0 Although the Sony a7IV is a terrific camera, the Lumix S5II is better in many ways.\u00a0 For example, you only get 10fps in burst rate mode with the a7IV vs the Lumix\u2019s 7-30fps options.\u00a0 The S5II also offers far more video resolution and compression options, meaning you have more control over size and quality during shoots and more material to work with in postproduction.\u00a0 Not to mention 14+ stop high dynamic range and real time LUT which is huge for vloggers and content creators.\u00a0 With S5IIX, you also get USB+SSD recording and playback, plus RAW video output.\u00a0 Panasonic really did a great job with these two new cameras.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Availability and Price<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The <a
