Full-Frame Mirrorless SLR Camera, “LUMIX S Series”

Panasonic exhibits a prototype of the full-frame mirrorless SLR camera, “LUMIX S Series,” that has adopted the mirrorless SLR “L Mount” standard developed by Leica Camera AG, along with samples of images shot with the prototype.  In addition to the large size photos displayed on the wall, images are being shown on the 4K OLED TV (TX-65/55GZ2000 series), which is also making its debut.  Through the demonstration of the new function, “HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma) Photo,” which realizes superior photographic expression with excellent light-dark contrast and rich color gradation, Panasonic proposes new ways to enjoy photography.

In addition, under the theme “Changing Photography,” Panasonic  takes a look back at LUMIX’s contribution to the mirrorless camera industry during the past decade with its technological innovations, as well as Panasonic’s technological prowess, which allows it to pursue ultimate image quality and expressions with a special focus on 4 core technologies, “lenses,” “autofocus,” “shake correction,” and “video.”

PRESS RELEASE

Panasonic Announces Additional Key Functions for the New Full-frame Mirrorless Camera at CES 2019

Las Vegas, NV (January 7, 2019) – Following an announcement at Photokina 2018, Panasonic will unveil additional key features of the new LUMIX S full-frame mirrorless cameras at CES 2019. The LUMIX S full-frame mirrorless cameras and lenses will be available at the end of March 2019.*

A Whole New Style of Photo Expression

High Dynamic Range Still Photo – HLG Photo Mode

HLG Photo allows images to be shot with a wider dynamic range. By reproducing both glaring lights and dark shadows that are likely to be overexposed or underexposed, the Lumix S achieves rich, precise color expression as close as possible to visual memory.

HLG Photos are produced as an HSP file. The user can play back these vibrant images on the latest Panasonic HLG-compliant 4KTV via HDMI cable connection or other HLG-compliant devices. It is also ideal for photographers’ photo presentations.

Stunning Details with a Realistic Sensation

High Resolution Mode

Taking advantage of the Body Image Stabilizer. (I.S.) mechanism, eight consecutive images are automatically shot while shifting the sensor. These eight images are synthesized into a single image by the new Venus Engine, which boasts high-speed signal processing. Precise details are faithfully reproduced to be saved as a beautiful, highly realistic image. This mode is ideal for shooting natural landscapes or fine art objects with delicate details.

Considering situations where moving subjects are included in the scene, sub options are available to suppress motion blur, so photographers can use this mode the same as shooting in a normal photo shooting mode.

*Availability date may vary depending on the sales area
•Design and specifications are subject to change without notice.
