More details are coming for the upcoming Panasonic GH5 specs list. It will replace the current GH4 mirrorless camera which has been introduced back in February, 2014.
It is getting more exciting when we come closer to the official announcement date of this product. The company will unveil the video-centric shooter at Photokina event. The flagship Micro Four Thirds camera will be released in early 2017.
Now trusted sources has posted more Panasonic GH5 specs pointing details about 4K and 6K video recording.
Panasonic GH5 Specs To Include 20MP, 4K at 60fps and 6K at 30fps
A big surprise is about the sensor of the MFT camera. There were so much rumors floating around about the sensor. Now the rumor mill claims that the sensor will be in 20-megapixel resolutions.
The camera will have no crop for 4K video. This means that when recording 4K videos, it will use the whole sensor. Currently the GH4 uses 2.3x crop for 4K and this is only a part of the sensor.
The GH5 will also feature 4:2:2 10 bits internal recording. If true this is big news for professional filmmakers. This means that the MFT camera will produce very accurate color reproduction, especially with skin tones. On the other hand it also means much better LOG profile shooting.
