About the camera:
Well-rounded, lightweight, and sleek, the Panasonic Lumix DC-S5 meshes capable video and photo capabilities with a portable body design. Featuring a full-frame 24.2MP CMOS sensor, the S5 is distinguished by its UHD 4K60 10-bit internal recording, Dual Native ISO, and wide 14+-stop dynamic range. Beyond video, it caters to a versatile range of stills applications with 7 fps continuous shooting, ISO 100-51200 native range, and even a 96MP High-Res Shot mode. Regardless if working with photo or video, the S5 maintains a quick and accurate 225-area DFD autofocus system with refined subject tracking, as well as 5-axis sensor-shift image stabilization to minimize the appearance of camera shake.

In terms of physical design, the S5 borrows elements from the larger S1-series of cameras but has a smaller footprint and lighter weight profile for improved portability. The S5 incorporated a 2.36m-dot OLED electronic viewfinder and a free-angle 3.0" 1.84m-dot touchscreen LCD, and it has built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for wireless connectivity. Dual SD memory card slots are featured, too, for flexible file storage and the body also has a splash- and dust-sealed design for working in trying conditions.

About the recorder/monitor:
The Atomos Ninja V 5" 4K HDMI Recording Monitor is a 5" on-camera monitor/recorder that records and plays back up to DCI 4K and records to purpose-built mini-SSDs. This monitor can record Apple ProRes Raw up to DCI 4K60 directly from the sensor of select cameras. Display features include a 10-bit screen with a brightness of 1000 cd/m² AtomHDR technology for accurate monitoring of your log gamma footage, and support for popular log formats from Sony, ARRI, Canon, JVC, Panasonic, Nikon, RED, Sony, and Z CAM cameras.

Built to withstand the rigors of production, the Ninja V features an aluminum chassis and powers from a single L-series battery. Additional features include a variety of onscreen exposure analysis, framing, anamorphic de-squeeze, and focus assist tools. Separately available AtomX SDI, AtomX SYNC, Connect 4K modules, and an SDI Raw license key to further expand your Ninja V's capabilities. Firmware update 10.61 brings customized timecode sequences that can be saved as a single file.

Ultra Wide Lens 8mm f/4 Micro 4/3 (not fisheye)

Includes: Front and rear lens caps, 52mm filter adapter

More

INCLUDES

  • Front and rear lens caps
  • 52mm filter adapter

OWNER NOTES

Super wide. Great for tight interior shots. Super light, compact and sharp.
Ultra wide and ultra lightweight at just 3.9 oz, the 8mm f/4 Lens from SLR Magic can easily find a home on your drone or gimbal stabilizer. Designed for these demanding applications, this lens offers a 16mm equivalent focal length with minimal distortion and high sharpness, ideal for vast landscapes, tight interiors, and architectural work. Also, it has an f/4 aperture that allows for the lens to remain extremely compact. Operation is simplified and optimized for remote camera work, including manual aperture and focus along with a locking screw to avoid any accidental focus shifts during your shoot. The lens uses a 7-blade aperture diaphragm for smooth bokeh and offers a 43mm front thread for accessories, such as an optional hood or the included 52mm filter adapter.
Optimized for use on drones, aerial systems, and stabilizers, this 8mm lens is extremely lightweight at just 3.9 oz and measures 1.8 x 1.6".
This ultra-wide angle 8mm lens is designed for use on Micro Four Thirds cameras where it provides an equivalent focal length of 16mm.
With a maximum aperture of f/4, this lens is able to remain compact while ensuring excellent sharpness and depth-of-field control.
Manual focus design is aided by the inclusion of a locking screw that will help prevent accidental focus shifts during shooting.
Manual aperture control from f/4 to f/16.
Focusing range of 3.9" to infinity.
Front thread for 43mm accessories, such as an optional lens hood or the included 52mm filter adapter. Due to the design of the front element, this lens will not directly accept 43mm filters, and requires the use of the included 52mm filter adapter.

Alec C. Made the whole rental process very easy. He offers quality equipment at a reasonable price. He was communicative and offered great service. He made sure I had 2 chargers!! 2!! and and an extra battery for a total of three because he knows what it’s like out there. Simple straightforward easy service can be hard to find nowadays and I find to be extremely valuable when the rest of work/life is complicated. Thank you Alex C.
