Summary
The Lumix S5 is Panasonic's answer to Canon's EOS R6 and is the best video-centric camera in its price range. It's smaller and costs less than the Lumix S1
Yes. The Lumix S5 is a great hybrid camera at a fair price. However, vloggers, YouTubers, and sports photographers who depend on reliable continuous autofocus should carefully consider the alternatives.Editors' RecommendationsSmaller and cheaper, the full...
Abstract: There's never been a better time to make the jump to a full-frame digital camera. Over the past few years, models with 24-by-36mm image sensors-the same dimensions as a frame of 35mm film-have become more and more affordable. And while the smaller APS-C s...
Abstract: If you're feeling limited by what your point-and-shoot can do, there are plenty of reasons to consider an interchangeable lens camera (ILC), whether it be a traditional DSLR or a more modern mirrorless model. Compared with your phone or point-and-shoot, t...
Abstract: Buying a digital camera is a very different experience than it was a few years ago. Smartphone cameras keep getting better, so there are a lot fewer buyers out there for budget pocket shooters. And because of that, there aren't that many good, inexpensive...

stabilisation de capteur efficace, mode haute définition 96 Mpx, écran orientable, prise en main agréable, protection tout-temps, bonne qualité en haute sensibilité
Viseur décevant, un seul logement compatible UHS-II, suivi autofocus perfectible, rafale à 5 i/s seulement, recadrage en 4K 60i/s, 1/8000s au minimum en obturation électronique, stabilisation bruyante
Nettement plus compact que ses aînés Lumix S1, le S5 offre enfin le gabarit que l'on attend d'un hybride 24x36. Brillant par sa qualité d'image, sa stabilisation du capteur ou son écran orientable, il reste cependant plombé par son viseur électronique e...

Alors que la concurrence propose des hybrides plein format aux fiches techniques plus limitées, Panasonic dévoile un Lumix S5 expert difficile à prendre en défaut. Si la taille de l'appareil est améliorée par rapport aux Lumix S1 et S1R, il reste toujours...
