The technical details behind this camera
In a Micro Four Thirds category first, the Panasonic Lumix GH6 compact camera sports a newly developed 25.2-megapixel Live MOS Sensor. In addition to high-resolution imaging and high-speed signal readout, the sensor's single exposure HDR technology is a significant leap forward in dynamic range performance. The next-generation Venus Engine powers not only advanced image processing and computational photography, it unlocks a new world of video codec options and framerates to enhance workflow and versatility for professional or aspiring videographers. The GH6 offers V-Log/V-Gamut and provides an amazing 13+ stops of a wide dynamic range.
Streamlining workflow for creators, the GH6 now includes Apple ProRes 422 HQ, 5.7K 30p internal video recording. This saves time in the editing stage of production by avoiding the time-consuming step of transcoding media from common compressed codecs into ProRes or proxy formats, as is often done by mirrorless hybrid camera users. Today, creators are also demanding high framerate recording options in higher resolutions. The GH6 delivers on this with outstanding C4K 120p in 10-bit 4:2:0, all without a crop or the image quality compromises that are often encountered in the hybrid camera segment. LUMIX users have always enjoyed reliably long recording times, and the GH6 is no exception with unlimited recording assisted by Panasonic's latest heat management technology, including in intensive recording modes such as C4K 60p 10-bit 4:2:2.
Sensor and processor technologies
Panasonic has developed a new 25.2-megapixel Live MOS Sensor without LPF (Low-pass Filter) with a high resolution, high-speed signal readout that reduces rolling shutter and achieves wide dynamic range. The GH6 provides 13+ stops of wide dynamic range with pre-installed V-Log and HLG recording using the Dynamic Range Boost mode. This mode uses two analog circuits, a high gain and a low gain, with each simultaneously capturing a different exposure, and saturation/noise level. The two images are combined at a pixel level to create a high dynamic range image with both low noise and high saturation, resulting in clear and smooth HDR video with rich gradation.
The new Venus Engine delivers approximately twice the processing power of the previous generation. It has evolved with key technologies - Intelligent Detail Processing, 2D Noise Reduction, High Precision 3D Noise Reduction for video, and High Precision 3D Colour Control. Together they provide less noise, higher detail and realism and enhanced colour reproduction for rich, faithful colour expression. Utilising the powerful image stabilisation system, 100-megapixel high resolution images can be captured in camera using the High Resolution mode both with a tripod or handheld. Eight consecutive images are automatically shot while shifting the sensor using the Body I.S. The result is a 100-megapixel (11552 x 8672- pixel) stunning image that faithfully reproduces precise details and can be saved in both RAW and JPEG. To provide users with the greatest shooting flexibility, multiple modes are available to shoot a variety of scenes, including those with motion.
Professional-quality video performance for unlimited expression
The GH6 achieves an impressive C4K 60p 10-bit 4:2:2 unlimited video recording. In addition, high frame rate video recording has been enhanced to include 4K 120p 10-bit 4:2:0, and FHD 240p 10-bit 4:2:2 (with audio recording) to enable impressive expression such as speed ramping. VFR (Variable Frame Rate) is available up to 300fps in Full HD 10-bit for dynamic slow motion. For creators desiring wide screen anamorphic content, the GH6 supports full-sensor 5.8K 30p 10-bit recording. when utilising dedicated anamorphic lenses or filters. It is possible to display de-squeezed footage to monitor in real-time.
The LUMIX GH6 also achieves 4:2:2 10-bit C4K 60p both internally and externally over HDMI simultaneously. The inclusion of HDMI 2.1 will support C4K 120p HDMI video output with a future firmware update. C4K 120p 12-bit RAW output to the Atomos Ninja V+ monitor recorder will also be available via a planned firmware update. In response to requests from professional users, Panasonic has included video assist functions such as Waveform Monitor, Zebra Pattern, Luminance Spot Meter, Frame Marker, Anamorphic Desqueeze Display, Red REC Frame Indicator, and Tally lamps. Some of the new enhanced features include Safety Zone Marker, which shows a guide of 95%, 90%, or 80% recording area; while Centre Marker now allows you to choose the type of marker. In Colour Temperature Setting, the kelvin values can now be displayed on the user interface while recording.
High-resolution audio recording is now possible supporting up to 24-bit 96kHz. By using the optional XLR Microphone Adaptor DMW-XLR1 and the 3.5mm input jack/built-in microphone, users can capture four channels of audio, reducing the need for external audio recording devices. Combinations of external microphones can be used to best fit the recording situation - such as outdoor interviews where voices and ambient sound both need to be captured. The headphone channel can be switched during video recording and audio menus can be directly accessed with the Fn1 button on top of the camera for easy sound level checks during 4-channel audio recording. 4K 60p Time Lapse video can also be produced inside the camera. With the Exposure Levelling function, the exposure is automatically adjusted to prevent large changes in brightness between adjacent frames, allowing daytime to night time 'holy grail' time lapses to be created in-camera. The internal time-lapse calculator allows users to understand the required settings without the use of external apps/intervalometers.
