Panasonic S5 uses a better Sensor

As we can see the sensor size is the main difference between these two cameras. The Panasonic S5 full-frame sensor will deliver exceptional images as well as more details and depth in videos with better low-light performance. Both cameras feature sensor-shift IS (5.5 Stops without OIS Lens / 6.5 Stops with Dual IS), so you will get stability support while you are shooting still images and videos.

As usual with the help of a Fullframe sensor, we will get a boosted ISO range inside the Panasonic S5 Camera.

Panasonic S5 shoots DCI 4k

The S5 also gets a significant update in 4K DCI and ProRes RAW support. So, if you are buying up the latest Panasonic S5 then for sure you will get DCI 4k videos with your camera. Another most important fact we have to admit the Panasonic S5 does a full sensor readout, that’s is 24.2MP full-frame CMOS sensor with no AA filter; Full-frame oversampled will give you massive details while creating 4k videos with your camera compared to a M4/3 sensor-based GH5 Mark II camera.

Panasonic GH5 Mark II vs Panasonic S5 – Verdict

Panasonic GH5 Mark II isn’t giving us enough reason to recommend you for video purposes. The GH5 Mark II update gives us a strong hint that Panasonic wants its existing consumer base to move into the S series aka the Fuullframe series.

As you can see from the initial specification the camera is using the same sensor as Panasonic GH5, although they have upgraded EVF and battery from Panasonic S5.

The battery life of the Panasonic GH5 Mark II camera improved. The Panasonic GH5 Mark II uses the BLK22 battery of the Panasonic S5 camera. So, more or less.

The new  Panasonic GH5 camera allows a USB power supply, USB power charging, USB power delivery which was not possible with the old GH5 camera.

More of less the Video and still specs of the camera remain the same which is really disappointing for those who are waiting for an upgrade.
