Panasonic GH5S Now Shipping and In Stock, Plus Shocking Lowlight For a m43 Camera


The Panasonic GH5S is currently in stock and shipping. It should be interesting to see how widely adopted this camera becomes since it is far more specialized than the Panasonic GH5, but it does offer an undeniable improvement in low light performance.

Philip Bloom: Panasonic GH5S vs Sony a7SII vs Sony a7RIII Low Light Comparison

Philip Bloom put together a great low light comparison of the Panasonic GH5S, Sony a7SII, and Sony a7RIII cameras. Youtube isn’t the best way to judge so he also made the files available via his dropbox here. I have to admit I go back and forth on a few of these shots, but I think I would really like to see this footage pushed a little more.

Kai got his hands on the Panasonic GH5S and seems a bit obsessed with the slow-motion feature. He suggests you expose to the right when shooting slow motion, but other than that the video is typical Kai.
