Here is Esquali (formerly "Camera Notes")
On the evening of May 25, Panasonic officially released the GH5II micro-single camera, and announced that it will launch a new generation of sensors and image processing engines later this year, supporting GH6 recorded at 5.7K 60p 10bit and 4K 120p 10bit – thus, GH5II has become the "appetizer" of GH6.
<h1 class="pgc-h-center-line" data-track="8" > product overview</h1>
Released in May 2021, the Panasonic GH5II features a 4/3-inch 20.3-megapixel CMOS and 5-axis stabilization with support for up to C4K 60p video recording. The overseas price is about 1700 US dollars, and the domestic suggested retail price is 11398 yuan.

The Panasonic GH series was pioneered in 2009 as the first photo/video hybrid camera. To this day, there are still quite a few video teams that are using GH5 and GH5S. The new GH5II not only provides a relay option for photographers who are using the GH5 series, but also conveys panasonic's voice of not giving up M4/3 to the majority of Lumix G users, accumulating strength for the year-end GH6.
Because of this, ET feels that GH5II is mainly for users who are using GH5 and GH5S, and urgently need to update products because of product aging, failure and other reasons. Professional users who still have a working camera in hand can wait for the end of the year GH6; without any lens burden on newbies, ET is still more recommended to consider the Lumix S5 with greater potential.
I know that when you talk about Panasonic cameras, some people say focus. There will be bread, but I can't say more about it now

Compared with GH5, the GH5II mainly improves stabilization performance and focus recognition capabilities, comes pre-installed with V LOG-L, and supports C4K 50p/60p 10bit recording formats. Compared with the GH5S, the GH5II, in addition to being equipped with body stabilization, also has USB charging/power supply, wireless live streaming and a larger battery - it must be said that Panasonic's stabilization is very powerful, whether it is with 100-400mm telephoto or 25-50/1.7 without stabilization, you can feel the obvious stabilization effect in the shooting.
However, the GH5S with dual native ISO is irreplaceable in terms of high-quality image quality and post-production space. At the same time, the GH5S is also the only LUMIX G series camera that supports ProRes RAW external recording and can be connected to a timecode sync line (via flash synchronization interface) – the other is the square box module camera BGH1.
* The GH5II adds flat (straight), L. Monochrome S and L. New Classic, while the two film tones have also been changed from Cinelike D and Cinelike V to Cinelike D2 and Cinelike V2.

When going to Wuling Mountain before, ET handed over the GH5II to its peers @ Xiaotian Bird-Seeker. He himself uses the G9 and Leica DG 100-400/4-6.3, and there will not be too many difficulties getting started with the GH5II. The following shows some photos and videos taken using GH5II, which are not rigorous samples and are for your reference only.
Finally, ET also got the newly launched Leica DG 25-50mm f/1.7 lens, and will bring you images taken using GH5II and 25-50/1.7 in the future.
