It is here. The 35mm Full Frame Panasonic Lumix S5 L Mount camera. Packing the essence of the conventional S Series camera in a compact, lightweight body, the new hybrid full-frame mirrorless camera LUMIX S5 provides excellent performance in both shooting photos and recording videos for serious, enthusiastic photographers and videographers.

Sigma sent the fp mirrorless camera into the upper atmosphere!

What do you do with the smallest and lightest full-frame camera ever built and the brightest ultra-wide angle 14mm lens on the market? You send them to the edge of space of course! This 4K UHD 12-bit RAW video and 24.6MP stills makes for some of the most impressive imagery ever captured from the upper atmosphere!
