New ROBOT SKIN for the GH5 by LockCircle

Share

LockCircle just announced the new Robot Skin for the new Panasonic GH5:
—-

LockCircle approached the mirroless cameras cage design from the beginning when the concept was just  “wrapping around the camera”, with a lightweight mechanical cage with many threads to only add cinematic accessories.
The design and engineering of cages evolved quickly, thanks to LockCircle’s international user feedbacks analyzed across many cage/camera editions and different users needs, deeply inspiring the entire design process.
For the new Lumix GH5 the LockCircle design approach was totally new and the word “cage” didn’t fit the extensive research done around the new Lumix GH5!

LockCircle is proudly presenting the truly innovative Robot Skin for the Lumix GH5 following what is called “cinematic research science”!

The Lumix GH5 camera body shape was captured in different physical, ergonomic, kinetic and tactile directions to analize user feelings and effective cinematic accessories mounting.
LockCircle with the Robot Skin GH5 is introducing the revolutionary “meltdown concept” for straight functions access and total view of the camera dials when shooting.
The LockCircle’s R&D department, lead by Dante Cecchin, worked intensly to create the cinematic Robot Skin GH5 that’s a authentic milestone model, outside traditional boundaries commonly used in the industry.
The ultralightweight Robot Skin GH5 is a natural extension of the original camera shape, a real cinematic production innovation!
The orignal GH5 camera design details were formulated like a “conceptual palette” driving the genesis of the Robot Skin GH5 aeshtetics.

GH5 review by CameraLabs: “a no-brainer for videographers but also very respectable for stills”

Share

CameraLabs posted the full Panasonic GH5 review:

Unsurprisingly it’s the movie modes which really impress with unlimited 4K video internally at 60p or in 10-bit at 30p (or both if you’re using an external recorder), and a wealth of features including vectorscope and waveform displays, anamorphic capture, programmable focus transitions, optional XLR inputs and very flat output (especially with the V Log L update), all making it one of the most portable and professional movie solutions for the money. The GH5 is a no-brainer for video pros but also becomes a highly compelling stills camera too – Highly Recommended.
