Panasonic has introduced the successor to the LUMIX S5II. The camera has the letter X added to its name. It stands out with features including Black Magic RAW video and ProRES RAW.
The new Panasonic LUMIX S5IIx was designed with the philosophy "Shaping Emotions". It comes in a fully matt black finish that looks similar to the black-and-white camera that Panasonic previously brought to market.

The camera is focused on video, with ProRES and Black Magic RAW output options. The camera records in 6K, which is downsampled to 4K footage for perfect sharpness. Focusing is done with hybrid phase detection, making the camera considerably faster than its predecessor.
The camera offers real-time LUT overlay and has an unlimited recording time. You can also record directly to an external SSD. The camera has built-in image stabilisation of up to 5 stops. For video, this is limited to 3 stops.
Of course, this 24-megapixel camera is also suitable for photography. It allows you to shoot up to 9 frames per second. The autofocus includes eye AF and tracking for people and animals.
The Panasonic LUMIX S5IIx is available for a recommended retail price of 2,499 euros.
