GH6 OVERVIEW
A
pioneer in the Micro Four Thirds class, the Lumix GH6 Mirrorless Camera from
Panasonic is a petite beast that challenges full-frame rivals, a powerful
hybrid addition to the video-centric GH series that offers cutting-edge tech to
cinematographers and photographers alike. 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 primary workhorse for independent cinema, or as an extra angle
on feature productions.
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 moiré 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 who
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,
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.
