The Panasonic GH5 camera is rumored to be officially released in early January. For a short period of time today B&H had listed on their website that the GH5 pre-orders will start at 1 pm on January 4th, 2017 (the text is now removed). The GH5 was announced at Photokina, but no additional information was provided. The only specs listed on the product page so far are:
- Newly developed 18MP Micro Four Thirds sensor
- DCI 4K video recording at up to 60 fps
- 4:2:2 10-bit internal recording
- 6K Photo & 4K Photo modes
- The price of the GH5 camera is expected to be around $2,000 (as much as the Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II).
According to the latest Panasonic roadmap from Photokina, there will also be three new Leica Hybrid f/2.8-4.0 MFT zoom lenses in 2017:
- Leica DG 12-60mm f/2.8-4.0 standard zoom lens (expected 2016)
- Leica DG 8-18mm f/2.8-4.0 wide zoom lens (expected 2017)
- Leica DG 50-200mm f/2.8-4.0 telephoto zoom lens (expected 2017)
