Panasonic DC-S5 II X + Sigma 24-70mm f2.8 DG DN (A) L-mount

Panasonic DC-S5 II X

With its exclusive black design and superior video capabilities, the LUMIX S5M2X is the perfect camera for the modern photo/video creator who demands the highest standards in both photo and video. And thanks to its compact, rugged body and built-in fan, it is a reliable companion even in the most extreme situations and is always ready to shoot. The

S5M2X is based on a newly developed full-frame 24-megapixel CMOS sensor and an image processor that is also new, developed as part of the L² technology partnership between LEICA and LUMIX. Fast and precise focusing is provided by the new Hybrid Phase Detection AF, and

thanks to the new processor, the S5M2X sets new standards for video in its price

, it offers 4K60p 4:2:2 10-bit, Apple ProRes, ALL-Intra, USB-SSD recording or advanced streaming features.

USB-SSD

USB-SSD recording is for photographers and videographers who want to improve backup and post-processing efficiency

• Better heat resistance than internal recording
• Cheaper than SD memory cards
• Can record at high bit rate in record mode

Wireless streaming USB tethering
Live streaming can be easily configured via the LUMIX Sync app (Android / iOS). In environments with a lot of wireless interference, stable communication speed can be ensured by connecting the camera to a smartphone via USB.

Wired Streaming
Enjoy highly stable communication with IP streaming over a wired LAN connection indoors

.

By connecting cameras and PCs via a wired LAN cable, multiple cameras can be controlled to deliver high-quality video and audio up to 4K 60p / 50p. H.264 and H.265 codecs are selectable

Live View composition
For photographers working with light in dark environments, such as starry skies. Only the luminous subjects are captured, e.g. to show the light trails of stars and fireworks.

Sigma 24-70mm f2.8 DG DN (A) L-Mount

The SIGMA 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN Art is compatible with various models of the latest full-frame mirrorless cameras. This means that professional photographers or ambitious amateur photographers alike can achieve top performance in a wide range of photographic applications.

For example, the AFL button can be assigned different functions via the camera menu, which improves operability when shooting. By using a stepper motor with the latest algorithm, a balance between acceleration and smoothness of the AF drive is achieved. This enables stress-free focusing. In addition, this lens is compatible with eye-detection AF commonly used in mirrorless cameras, which enables extremely precise focusing in portrait photography. The Zoom lock mechanism prevents accidental extension of the lens barrel. An AF/MF switch, also featured on many other SIGMA lenses, is also available.

Reflection and Ghost Eliminating Design
From the beginning of the lens design process, susceptibility to reflections and ghosting is studied to achieve an optical design that is resistant to even strong backlighting. Super Multi-Layer Coating (SML) reduces flare and ghosting and delivers sharp, high-contrast images, even when backlit. In

addition to Super Multi-Layer Coating, Nano Porous Coating is used

.

In terms of coating, the lens is designed to be less affected by strong light incidence, such as reflections.

Close focusing distance of 18-38 cm
The close focusing distance is 18 cm in the wide-angle range

.

This allows you to get closer to the subject when shooting than the lens hood allows. The maximum magnification is 1:2.9 at wide-angle and 1:4.5 at telephoto, allowing for a greater variety of expression in close-up photography.

Round aperture
The near-round aperture consists of 11 aperture blades and provides a very pleasing bokeh outside the image's plane of focus

Dust and splash protection
Thanks to its dust- and splash-proof design, the lens is suitable for a wide range of applications and environments.

Brass bayonet
The lens is equipped with a solid and precise brass bayonet

.

The special treatment of the surface to reinforce the strength enables the long-lasting use
