A pioneer in the Micro Four Thirds class, the Panasonic Lumix GH6 Mirrorless Camera is a petite beast that challenges full-frame rivals, and the improved processing power of the Venus Engine enables fast sensor readouts for internal Recording of 5.7K 30p in Apple ProRes 422 HQ, FHD 300p, and handheld 100MP photos.
The GH6 properly exposes across 13+ stops, features in-body, Sensor-shift stabilization, and can be spliced into VariCam footage with its pre-installed V-log image profile.
Panasonic has created a compact flagship camera that professionals can choose for stills, as a primary workhorse for independent cinema, or as an extra angle on feature productions.
Flagship Imaging Platform
High Resolution 25MP Sensor, 5.7K Video
Redesigned from the ground up, this Sensor improves upon its predecessors in the GH Series with new silicone and software. It has an improved 13+ stops of dynamic range despite its reduced cell size due to the increased number of pixels on the Micro Four Thirds Sensor.
Use a CFexpress Type B card to internally record 5.7K Apple Pro Res 422 HQ, or the SD slot to capture 10-Bit 4K120p footage. The ability to record high bitrates and an unlimited Recording time set this camera apart from any of its predecessors.
For maximum sharpness, the Sensor is unhindered by a low-pass filter; it smooths out any moir through intelligent detail processing from its updated Venus Engine.
Relying on its next-generation image stabilization, this camera synthesizes eight distinct images into a single 100MP image - all without requiring a tripod.
Lightning-Fast Sensor Readout
The Venus Engine has twice the power of previous generations, which enables 75 fps continuous shooting or 300 fps variable frame rate (VFR) slow motion footage.
The Venus Engine's fast sensor readout limits the rolling shutter distortion to keep skyscrapers vertical when shooting from an automobile's action mount or to capture slow-motion footage of quickly moving objects.
Stabilization: In-Body, Sensor-shift
In-body, Sensor-shift, 5-Axis image stabilization is obtained with a high-precision gyro-Sensor and a stabilization algorithm.
At all focal lengths, this stabilization technology offers 7.5 stops of deviance from the shutter speed dictated by the reciprocal rule.
Its in-body, Sensor-shift technology works seamlessly with the optical image stabilization of Panasonic lenses.
Electronic stabilization is available to those who accept the slight cropping effect it requires.
Boost I.S. mode is the most extreme form of electronic stabilization, simulating a shot locked off on a tripod.
AF & AE Highlights
The processing speed of the autofocus has been tripled, powering the 315-area contrast-detection depth-from-defocus (DFD) system.
The updated algorithm calculates the distance to your subject and predicts whether it is moving closer or further away from the camera, anticipating where it will be for the following frame.
It functions by collecting data from several focal planes, and then creating a 3D, real-time depth map.
The subject-tracking focusing system also supports face, eye, head, body, and animal recognition.
The autofocus will automatically switch from body recognition to face, then eye recognition as the subject approaches the camera for improved sharpness.
The Focus Limiter, Manual Focus Assist, and an updated joystick enable quick and precise focusing.
Zone AF is a less obstructive overlay, and Face Priority in Multi Metering prevents unwanted exposure changes.
Professional-Grade High Bitrate Video
Limitless Latitude
5.7K 30p Recording is supported in the high-quality Apple ProRes 422 HQ/ProRes 422 codecs for visually lossless, high bitrate footage well-suited for intense manipulation in post-production.
ProRes 422 HQ/ProRes 422 is also supported in DCI 4K and FHD at up to 60p.
The GH6 supports unlimited Recording up to DCI 4K at 60p with 4:2:2 10-Bit sampling for pristine detail and depth in colour grading.
Preserve 13+ Stops of Detail
Shooting in V-Log and V-Gamut will give you 12+ stops of dynamic range, which can be increased to 13+ stops by activating its dual-analog gain circuits with Dynamic Range Boost Mode.
One circuit using ISO 800 absorbs the richness of the visible spectrum while maintaining detail in the highlights, and ISO 2000 captures low-noise gradients of black in the shadows.
The well-exposed picture is composited once passing through the Image Synthesis Dedicated Circuit.
This makes it different from a dual-native design because you're not selecting one ISO or the other, but both are working in tandem. Dynamic Range Boost Mode is available for footage shot up to 60 fps.
Unlimited Recording Times
Panasonic recognizes the importance of shooting extended clips and has designed the GH6 to not have a maximum record time.
