Panasonic GH5s now in Stock in the USA. And tested by Dpreview: “results are hugely impressive”

For the very first time the new Panasonic GH5s is in Stock in the USA via BHphoto, Adorama, Amazon, FocusCamera and Panasonic.

And right in time Dpreview published their full GH5s review:

The GH5S is a highly specialized filmmakers’ camera that makes few concessions to anything but this core purpose. An excellent sensor combined with high bitrate, 10-bit 4:2:2 capture means the results are hugely impressive. Add an external recorder and these benefits remain, even for both UHD and DCI 60p capture. The loss of stabilization means it’s limited to gimbal or tripod work but in those circumstances, it shines.

The camera earned the Gold Award and this is their list of PROS and CONS:

GH5s now in Stock and shipping in Europe

The GH5s is finally in Stock and shipping in Europe. It’s in Stock in many places like for example Amazon.de or Amazon UK. It will be in Stock on Feb 5 in USA via BHphoto, Adorama, Amazon, FocusCamera and Panasonic.

There is also a new review at Photographyblog:

While we can certainly understand the logic behind this design decision, it’s certainly going to put off a lot of would-be purchasers who’ve previously enjoyed the many benefits that in-camera IBIS offers, for both video and stills alike. If IBIS isn’t a deal-breaker, then the many improvements that the GH5S offers for video compared to the GH5 are well worth the slight hike in the asking price, especially as V-Log is now included in-camera, rather than being another expense as with the GH5.

In summary, the Lumix GH5S rounds out Panasonic’s flagship camera line-up, joining the stills-focused G9 and hybrid GH5, with all three being excellent cameras that do what they do very well.
