You shouldn’t assume that there are no good deals to be had between Black Friday and the new year sales, as we’ve noticed that the Panasonic Lumix S5 full-frame camera is nearly half price on Amazon.
While the camera is quite old in technology terms, coming out just over five years ago, it still has many virtues. These include a 24.2MP full-frame CMOS sensor and 5-axis in-body image stabilisation, and the Lumix S5 is also a great budget choice for video makers and content creators.
It enables you to record 4K 60p, 10-bit video, with a full HD 180fps Slow Motion option as well as 4:3 Anamorphic support. There is also a Live View Composite Mode, so can you create one dramatic image out of several live shots – perfect for new year’s eve firework displays.
Thanks to this 45% discount on Amazon, the price has fallen to $997.99.
