The Panasonic DC-S5 II X is the perfect camera for the creator. Set includes Sigma 50mm f1.4 DG Art lens .
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 and was 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
range. For example, it offers 4K60p 4:2:2 10-bit, Apple ProRes, ALL-Intra, USB-SSD recording or advanced streaming features.
USB-SSD
recording
USB-SSD recording is for photographers and videographers who want to improve backup and post-processing efficiency
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

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.
The fast standard 50mm F1.4 DG HSM Art lens delivers the highest imaging performance for a new era of superior image quality. Its excellent optical performance makes it the ultimate "always with you" lens.
This lens is a symbol of SIGMA quality and the ideal standard lens. It delivers superior performance and fulfills the concept of our Art product line to the highest degree. It provides immensely balanced images with a wonderful bokeh and sets a new standard for fast standard lenses
,using all the experience and the latest design technologies drawn from past developments to effectively correct aberrations and achieve high resolution and amazing imaging performance, even at the edges of the image
.High resolution with a wonderful bokeh
While high resolution is desired for the focused subject, beautiful bokeh is desired outside the plane of focus for a smooth transition of sharpness. Imaging errors such as sagittal coma and color distortion, which affect image quality, are effectively corrected. Even at open aperture, high-resolution reproduction is achieved without blurring. By reducing vignetting to a minimum and preventing colored fringes in front of and behind the focus point, a very natural bokeh is achieved.
Excellent sagittal coma correction
Ideally, a fast standard lens already exhibits high imaging performance across the entire image area at open a
.
Excellent sagittal coma correction is provided, for example, by the bare pressed aspherical glass lens elements. Due to the reduced distortion of point light sources at the image edges, it is perfectly suited for astrophotography and available light.
Italso provides attractive bokeh for portraits and indoor photography.
Correction of longitudinal chromatic aber
ration
SLD (Special Low Dispersion) glass elements are used to counteract longitudinal chromatic aberration, which is difficult to correct even in image processing, and ensure high image quality over the entire focus range
a result, the lens achieves sharp and high-contrast image reproduction.
Minimized distortion
It is not possible to compensate for distortion only by changing the aperture values. Thus, the development phase of the lens was already decisive in minimizing distortion. In the "SIGMA 50mm F1.4 DG HSM", each glass element has been precisely positioned for optimized force distribution to reduce distortion to a minimum.
High peripheral ill
umination
The lens offers very uniform illumination even in the peripheral areas of the image, which can otherwise be a problem with large diameter optical systems. The positioning of large elements in the front lens group improved efficiency at open aperture. This helps minimize vignetting and provides the utmost clarity across the entire image field.
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.
Close focus limit of 40cm
The lens incorporates a floating system that adjusts the distances between lens groups during focusing, minimizing the amount of lens movement required
.
This enables a close focusing distance of 40cm and a maximum magnification of 1:5.6. Similarly, fewer aberrations at each shooting distance are the result, enabling the lens to deliver high imaging performance across the entire focus range.
Fast focusing
The Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM) provides quiet and very fast AF. With the improved AF algorithm, smoother AF is achieved. It can also be manually intervened at any time, allowing sensitive focus adjustment by simply turning the focus ring.
Round aperture
The near-round aperture consists of 9 aperture blades and provides a very pleasing bokeh outside the plane of focus of the image.
Brass bayonet
The lens is equipped with a solid and precise brass bayonet
