Panasonic has announced an upcoming firmware update for its flagship Panasonic Lumix GH6 compact camera.\u00a0The version 2.3 update will bring significant improvements – and expand the capabilities of the Panasonic Lumix GH6.\u00a0The previous firmware version for this camera was released in September 2022.\u00a0Then the ability to write directly to an SSD was added.<\/p>\n

One of the major innovations is the ability to record in uncompressed Blackmagic RAW codec to an external Blackmagic Video Assist 12G HDR recorder.\u00a0All Blackmagic Design film cameras record video in this codec.\u00a0The Blackmagic Video Assist 12G HDR Monitor is available in both 5″ and 7″ versions.<\/p>\n

Thus, Panasonic Lumix GH6 will be able to record 12-bit RAW video in the following formats: 5.7K, C4K, anamorphic (4:3) 5.8K, anamorphic (4:3) 4.4K when connected to a recorder.<\/p>\n

In addition, C4K 120p\/100p or 4K 120p\/100p video can also be output via HDMI to a Blackmagic Video Assist 12G HDR recorder in BRAW format.<\/p>\n

In general, firmware version 2.3 will expand the functionality of the Panasonic Lumix GH6 camera. It is difficult to call this setup profitable (provided that for a given amount you can buy a movie camera with a large matrix).<\/p>\n

Panasonic Lumix GH6 was\u00a0announced\u00a0in February 2022.\u00a0The camera has received significant improvements in terms of video shooting.\u00a0There was a recording mode ProRes 422 HQ (10bit) in 5.7K resolution.\u00a0The bitrate in this case will be 1.9 gigabits per second.<\/p>\n

The second mode with a maximum bitrate of 800 megabits\/sec is 5.7K 60fps 4:2:0 10-bit.\u00a0There were no such options in the previous generation Lumix GH.\u00a0All of these modes use a built-in active cooling system.\u00a0The Panasonic Lumix GH6 camera is equipped with matrix stabilization with a maximum efficiency of 7.5 stops.\u00a0However, it is achieved only when using some branded lenses.<\/p>\n

Earlier, we published\u00a0the first information about the Panasonic Lumix G9 Mark II camera, which may be presented in the foreseeable future.\u00a0It is reported that the announcement could take place before the end of 2023.\u00a0Potentially, the device may receive support for hybrid autofocus, which was first used in the Panasonic Lumix S5 Mark II camera.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
