With an always-on connection, images can be geotagged, and your smartphone can be used as a remote control. The camera can also be conveniently charged on the go via USB cable direct to the camera, anywhere there is a USB power source.

Stable shooting, high-speed AF and advanced imaging

Panasonic’s 5-Axis Dual IS 2 offers excellent stability in a range of situations. A high precision gyro sensor joins the Dual IS system of 5-axis in-body stabilization and 2-axis optical stabilization in selected lenses. This makes it possible to use up to five stops slower shutter speed in both photo and video. Incredibly stable performance can be achieved when shooting handheld, reducing the need to carry a tripod or Steadicam rig. The electromagnetically-driven shutter system provides quiet, steady shooting.

Panasonic has achieved high-speed AF with its advanced control technology. The lens and sensor communicate at a maximum 240fps. Contrast AF with DFD technology allows the camera to achieve a high-speed, high-precision AF of approximately 0.07vi sec. The camera also boasts high speed burst shooting at 9 fps (AFS/MF) or 6 fps (AFC), at up to 600 (JPEG) / 30 (RAW) images. Other AF functions include AF Sensitivity, Face/Eye Detection AF, Pinpoint AF, One-shot AF and advanced Low Light AF. Focus peaking is available for more flexible manual focusing. Bracketing modes available include focus, aperture, exposure and white balance bracketing.
