Overview

Lumix GH5M2

4K 60p 4:2:0 10-bit video recording and wireless live streaming capability.

Free Your Creativity. Go Live.

Panasonic is proud to introduce a new digital mirrorless camera with outstanding video performance- the LUMIX GH5M2. Evolving from the GH5’s superb performance, the LUMIX GH5M2 achieves C4K/4K 60p 4:2:0 10-bit*1 video recording and simultaneous output of 4:2:2 10-bit over HDMI during 4K 60p 4:2:0 10-bit internal recording. With the pre-installed V-Log L, it’s easy to match the colour tone with the footage recorded using V-Log from the S1H/S1 and the V-Log L of the GH5/GH5S.

Key Features:

  • Pre-installed V-Log L
  • 4K 60p HDMI Internal Recording
  • Wireless Live Streaming
  • Body I.S. (Image Stabilizer)
  • USB-PD Power Supply/Charge
  • Auto Focus Using Deep Learning Technology

The new ultimate hybrid mirrorless camera

Pre-installed V-Log L

With the pre-installed V-Log L, there is no need to buy a separate activation key.

4K 60p HDMI Internal Recording

With the adoption of the latest Venus Engine, it combines high speed with excellent performance, even enabling 4K60p 4:2:0 10-bit internal recording and simultaneous 4:2:2 HDMI output. 

Wireless Live Streaming

High-quality live streaming is possible with minimum equipment (Using the LUMIX Sync application for smartphones).

Body I.S. (Image Stabilizer)

Making it possible to use a 6.5-stop slower shutter speed. Stabilized video is available even when the camera is moving or panning.

USB-PD Power Supply/Charge

For prolonged use, the new battery is a 2200mAh high-capacity model. The camera’s battery can be recharged either via AC or USB according to your preference. It also complies with USB PD (Power Delivery).

Auto Focus Using Deep Learning Technology

Using AI, a person's head, body or animal can be recognized and tracked more accurately than in the past. The face/eye recognition is 50% faster than its predecessor and the tracking performance is 2x faster.

12-60mm / F2.8-4.0 | Standard Zoom Range

Finally, the long-awaited standard zoom lens from LEICA has arrived.

This 12-60mm (35mm camera equivalent: 24-120mm) lens provides flexible framing from breathtaking landscapes to beautiful, mid-telephoto 60mm portraits. The stunning resolution of this LEICA DG lens renders everything clearly, from corner to corner. Designed for reliable use even under poor weather conditions, this handy and high-quality lens is all you'll need for challenging.

Lens Features:

  • Professional high-quality LEICA DG VARIO-ELMARIT optics with Panasonic’s Nano Surface Coating. (4 ASPH / 2 ED)
  • 5X Optical 24-120mm F2.8-4.0 (62mm Filter Tread)
  • Durability metal body for various weather conditions (Splashproof / Dustproof / -10C Freezeproof)
  • Panasonic POWER O.I.S. compatible with LUMIX Dual I.S. 2.0 LUMIX Mirrorless cameras.
  • Fast focus tracking via a 240 fps linear motor

Leica DG Lens Optical Performance

Opt for a LEICA DG lens and get the ultimate in optical quality and performance. They naturally meet the strict quality standards set by Leica Camera AG. Thanks to the sophisticated design of these lenses, you will enjoy brilliant clarity all the way to the edges of your photos. At the same time, distortions of all kind are prevented to enable precise, sharp picture rendering. This means you have the ideal tool for pro-level images in the palm of your hand.

More Creative Options

Splash/Dust/Freezeproof

Brave the elements in nearly any kind of weather or shooting location. This lens features a splash/dust/freezeproof construction* that is tough enough to withstand even heavy field use. It protects the lens system inside from sand, rain and more, making it perfectfor shooting under harsh conditions. Now there is nothing holding you back from capturing the creative nature or landscape shots you want.

* The lens supports this feature in conjunction with splash/dust/freezeproof LUMIX cameras.

POWER O.I.S.

Capture scenes carefree or at the spur of the moment. The optical image stabilisation (O.I.S.) technology built directly into the lens ensures your photos will look great, with sharp blur-free contours across the entire picture. Taking highly popular MEGA O.I.S. further, this advanced technology immediately compensates even large camera shake and vibrations that may occur in photography. So you can capture true-to-life scenes without the need for a tripod. In the end, you’ll enjoy wonderfully crisp images.

NANO SURFACE COATING

Put an end to unwanted ghosting and flaring – the Nano Surface Coating has been applied to lenses within the system. This special, ultra-thin coating was developed originally by Panasonic to reduce bothersome reflections across the entire light spectrum. The result: crystal-clear pictures even if you’re photographing a light source in the dark.

VIDEO SUPPORT

With video support any user has everything they need for recording with their LUMIX camera. Not only does it perform smooth aperture changes so there are no sudden jumps in exposure, it also boasts a silent design for enhanced capture of the scene’s audio. What’s more, the stunning AF performance of this lens records excellent 4K video, where precise focusing is essential.

LENS CONSTRUCTION

Aspherical (ASPH) lenses reduce size and weight, effectively preventing spherical and distortion aberration. Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) lenses correct chromatic aberration rendering sharp, high-contrast images with clear colours from corner to corner.
