Panasonic has just officially announced the new Panasonic Lumix DC-S5. Featuring a full-frame 24.2MP CMOS sensor, Panasonic S5 is distinguished by its UHD 4K60 10-bit internal recording, Dual Native ISO, and wide 14+-stop dynamic range. Beyond video, it caters to a versatile range of stills applications with 7 fps continuous shooting, ISO 100-51200 native range, and even a 96MP High-Res Shot mode. Regardless if working with photo or video, the S5 maintains a quick and accurate 225-area DFD autofocus system with refined subject tracking, as well as 5-axis sensor-shift image stabilization to minimize the appearance of camera shake. This new camera costs $1,997.99, first available for pre-order at B&H/ Adorama.
