The GH5S presents a pure video experience with professional features and incredible low-light performance. At it's heart, the GH5S contains a much different image sensor to the GH5. The new, high sensitivity MOS sensor is 10-2 megapixels, with plenty of resolution for stunning 4k video recording, but pixels nearly double the size of the GH5's sensor for greatly enhanced low light performance.
Building on the excellent low light capabilities of the new sensor, the GH5S also features Dual Native ISO, similar to what is found in many high-end production cameras. Not only does the GH5S feature a standard analog circuit with a base ISO of 160, Panasonic has implemented a second analog circuit with a base ISO of 800, providing greatly enhanced image quality when shooting at high ISO levels.
Slow motion shooting has been improved as well, with the GH5S capable of variable frame rate recording up to 240fps in 1080p, compared to 180fps in the GH5. The GH5S is capable of 60fps in 4k, for a 2.5x reduction in playback speed.
