Systemkameraerne fra Panasonic har længe været blandt de mest velegnede til videoprofessionelle. De har understøttet flere formater og været bedre tilpasset til video end de fleste andre kameraer.
En af grundene til det er, at Panasonic løbende kommer med opdateringer, der giver kameraerne flere videofunktioner.
Nu kommer der HLG-understøttelse i Photoshop via en plug-in til alle fire full-frame-kameraer i Lumix S-serien. Samtidig får Lumix S1, S1R og S5 understøttelse af Blackmagic RAW i 5,9K via HDMI.
Kameraerne understøtter også farveprofilerne ClassicNeo og L.Monochrome S med den nyeste firmware-opdatering.
Herunder kan man se en oversigt over opdateringerne:
