New AF system with advanced
DFD Technology never misses a
once-in-a-lifetime moment
The LUMIX GH5 comes with
a newly improved Depth from
Defocus[6] and Contrast AF
technology, which not only
calculates the distance to the
subject by evaluating two images
with different sharpness levels,
but also analyzes the form, size
and even motion of the subject
comprehensively. Thanks to the
new Venus Engine, the time for
measuring the distance to the
subject is 6x faster, while factoring
the distance into in-plane or in-
depth is 2x faster.
The speed of sensor drive during
auto focusing in photo shooting
mode has been increased to 480
fps, which is 2x faster than that
of the GH4. Consequently, the
LUMIX GH5 realizes ultra-high-
speed AF of approximately 0.05
sec [7] and 12 (AFS) / 9 (AFC)
fps high-speed burst shooting
using a mechanical shutter in full
resolution. By analyzing every
single frame precisely, it achieves a
maximum 200% higher precision
frame detection with minimum
motion detection error for
higher tracking tolerance against
moving subjects.
If focus is not exactly as the user
intended when the shutter is
pressed, the LUMIX GH5’s Post
Focus function [8] enables users
to select the specific focus point
even after shooting – particularly
helpful in situations like macro
shooting where severe focusing is
For even more precise focusing,
the number of focus areas has
been increased from 49 to 225.
Users can create a group of
focus areas depending on the
composition and can control it
