Full Panasonic GH6 specs and new images leaked!

Digicameinfo leaked all images, specs and a video of the GH6:

  • 25 million pixel PLF-less sensor
  • High resolution shooting of 100 million pixels
  • 5.7K video
  • Sensor readout up to 300fps
  • High-speed readout of 120 fps at 4K resolution
  • Rolling shutter suppression
  • Computational processing capacity is about double
  • New intelligent details New 2D noise reduction High-performance 3D-NR (video) Improved AF performance Processing speed is 3 times faster than before DFD performance has evolved
  • New recording mode 4K120p 4: 2: 0 10bit 300Mbps 4K 60p 4: 2: 2 10bit 800Mbps / 600Mbps 5.7K 60p 4: 2: 0 10bit 300Mbps C4K 120p 4: 2: 0 10bit 300Mbps C4K 60p 4: 2: 2 10bit 800Mbps / 600Mbps Recording file method supports Apple ProRes in addition to MP4 and MOV 5.7K 30p Apple ProRes 422 HQ 1.9Gbps
  • Card slot: CFexpress TypeB slot, UHSII compatible SD card slot Weight: 739g
  • Dynamic range boost function: It is possible to shoot a wide dynamic range image at a maximum of 60 fps by synthesizing an overexposed image and an underexposed image in real time. Achieves a dynamic range of up to 13+ stops approaching the full size. The minimum ISO sensitivity is 800, and when using V-log it is 2000, so an ND filter is essential. Image stabilization: Adopts an ultra-high performance gyro sensor and a new algorithm, and has a correction effect equivalent to 7.5 steps. Smooth image stabilization that is ideal for movies. Dark place performance: High-sensitivity noise is much suppressed compared to GH5II while increasing the number of pixels. It can be used normally up to ISO3200. Built-in microphone evolved from 16bit to 24bit. 4 channels can be recorded when using an XLR adapter. Phase-difference AF is not installed, but AF is much better. The AF calculation speed has tripled, the background omission and tracking performance have been greatly improved, and the AF speed has also become considerably faster. There are 315 AF points in the full area. Human, face / pupil, animal + human subject recognition can be used in all AF modes. The focus range can be set with the focus limiter.

And one of our sources sent us the OM-1 accessory list:

1. HLD-10 
2. remote control RM-WR1
3. battery pack – BLX-1 (battery)+BCX-1(charger)
4. USB-AC charger F7-AC

Aeon made this OM-1 vs E-M5III size comparison:

Robert also made this side by side between the OM-1 and the Sony A7Iv.

Asobinet saw the new OM-1 and here comes the detailed description!

The japanese blog Asobinet saw the new OM-1 camera and described it:

front

  • A macho design similar to the E-M1X, not the shoulder of a conventional model
  • Fn button is the same as E-M1 III
  • “OM SYSTEM” in the logo part of “E-M1 Mark III”
  • “OLYMPUS” in the penta part continues
  • The “OM-1” logo is placed in the “OM-D” part of the conventional model.
  • Shutter button and command dial are similar to E-M1X

back

  • The button configuration at the bottom right of the AF joystick is the same as the E-M1 III.
  • The ISO button on the top of the thumb rest is the same as the E-M1 III
  • The command dial is similar to the E-M1X
  • The MENU button is on the left shoulder (same as E-M1 III)
  • AEL button coaxial with Fn lever
  • Independent AF-ON button
  • Vari-angle monitor
  • Eye sensor independent of large viewfinder

Top surface

  • The design of the left shoulder is similar to the E-M1 III
  • The mode dial is the same as the latest model (B mode is independent, no Art)
  • Exposure compensation / REC button is similar to E-M1 III
  • The position and shape of the strap metal fittings are the same as the E-M1 III and E-M1X.

side

  • Remote release terminal is the same as before
  • The cover design of the memory card slot is different
  • The accessory port on the left is the same as before

Overall, the design is like adding E-M1X and E-M1 III and dividing by two. If the spec information previously distributed is accurate, it should be a little larger in millimeters than the E-M1 III and E-M1 II. If there is something that E-M1 III users are interested in, is it a command dial design similar to E-M1X? Since the shutter button and front dial are separated, it seems that you need to get used to the operation a little. Also, the design around the Fn lever and AF-ON button has changed a little, so you may need to get used to this as well.

If it was a world line where the E-M1X did not appear, I have the impression that this might have been named the E-M1X. It is a rumored camera that has been called “Wow camera” for a long time, but I wonder if it is an “Aha” camera rather than “Wow”. It seems that there is no mistake in seeing it as a legitimate successor model of the E-M1 lineage, but since it is not definitive information, it is only half the story so far.
After that, I’m worried about the functionality and AF performance that can’t be seen from the spec sheet and appearance.


(FT5) Just to be clear: The Panasonic GH6 still has no phase detection autofocus

GH6 specs at BHphoto

The autofocus will be improved by quite a bit, but I can now confirm with 100% certainty that the GH6 will not use a phase detection system. Let’s hope Panasonic engineers found some “trick” that can really fix their flawed af system…

A source told me this about the soon to be announced new GH6:

  • rolling shutter is eliminated
  • Not sure if they also eliminated mechanical shutter but there is a chance for it.
  • And last but not least a massive improvement in AF. It may called DFD AI. They claim that tracking is 5 times better than in GH5.
  • no phase detection AF.

The official specs shared by Panasonic are:

  • New Micro Four Thirds Sensor
  • Updated Venus Engine Image Processor
  • 5.7K 60p Video, 10-Bit Sampling
  • DCI 4K 10-Bit 4:2:2, Unlimited Recording
