The Panasonic Lumix DC-GH5 is the fifth in the company's industry-changing video and stills 'hybrid' lineup. With its 20MP Four Thirds sensor and deep video-centric feature set, it looks likely to pick up where the GH4 left off as a favorite of indie filmmakers and photographers whose interests venture into the realm of motion picture work.The GH5's feature set moves on suitably far from its predecessor that the company says the GH4 will remain in its lineup as a lower-cost option for users who don't need the additional capability that the GH5 brings.For many users, the addition of in-body stabilization and 4K video without cropping might be enough to make the camera a worthwhile upgrade, but Panasonic has revised and improved almost every aspect of the camera's behavior and performance.Key Features- 20MP Four Thirds sensor (no OLPF)- 5-axis in-body image stabilization system with 'Dual IS 2' support- All 4K footage taken using full width of sensor (oversampled from 5.1K footage)- Internal 4K/30p 10-bit 4:2:2 video capture4K/59.94p and 50p shooting with 10-bit 4:2:2 output or 8-bit, 4:2:0 internal recording- 1080 video at up to 180p, enabling 7.5x slow-motion- 9 fps shooting with continuous autofocus- Advanced DFD autofocus- Dual UHS II card slots (V60 ready)- Autofocus point joystick- 802.11ac Wi-Fi, NFC and Bluetooth- Pre-configurable rack focus mode- Waveform and vectorscope monitors-. Paid upgrade to enable V-LogL video capture with LUT-based preview display4K 60p video ( First time in the world)The eye-catching feature on the GH5 is its ability to shoot 4K footage at up to 59.94p and 48p (or 50p if you're shooting for PAL). Footage is oversampled from 5.1K, thanks to full sensor readout, meaning sharp footage that takes advantage of the full size of the sensor. Internal recording will be limited to 8-bit 4:2:0 IPB encoding at up to 150Mbps but with higher quality available if an external recorder is used. 4K video is shot using the full width of the sensor and has no time restrictions.Last but not the leastIt's way more better than it's competitors (Sony's a7s and a7r) even after having such a low price.

I am an independent filmmaker, needed this little beast so that I don't have to hire/borrow camera & asseseries as we make zero budget films. This camera is perfect in almost every aspect be it handy, great specs, pricing; you can shoot weddings, documentaries, shorts or even films. I was waiting for this masterpiece for almost a year, did a lot of research before finalizing it. Now when it is arrived unfortunately I don't have enough money to buy it. But those who are planning to buy this and having a dilemma over GH5 or Mark IV, I recommend you to buy GH5 as in technicality both have great specs, great features or possibly MARK IV will win by a point or two but it doesn't really matter, but...but here is a catch, you will save some serious money which you can again invest in other asseseries.
