Product Overview

Panasonic Lumix DC-GH5S is a mirrorless camera in the Micro Four Thirds-mount system optimized for videography. Introduced by Panasonic in 2018, it comes with a micro four thirds sensor with 10 MP (3680 x 2760) resolution and a 3.68 million-dot EVF.
The camera has a usable battery life, though a second battery may be a good thing to keep in your camera bag. One should note that the Panasonic Lumix DC-GH5S has a 160 base ISO, which is not conducive to getting the cleanest images. The 12.0 fps burst rate serves enthusiasts well enough, though some professionals may find it limiting.
The Panasonic Lumix DC-GH5S comes with a fully articulated touch display and 225 autofocus points.

Reviewers from cameralabs have found:
Panasonic's Lumix GH5S is a high-end mirrorless camera aimed at pro videographers, delivering the best movie and low light quality from a Lumix G body to date. It takes the GH5 body and equips it with a new sensor optimised for video and low-light. Dual Native ISO allows it to support multiple aspect ratios without compromising resolution or reducing the field of view.
Pros
  • Wide 16:9 aspect ratio
  • Dual Native ISO
  • Good image quality at high ISOs
Cons
  • High sensitivities at high ISO
