The Panasonic Lumix GH5's maximum shutter speed is 60 seconds and there's also a Bulb option for exposures up to 30 minutes long, which is excellent news if you're seriously interested in night photography. The shot below was taken using a shutter speed of 30 seconds at ISO 100.
The studio photo is unfair; the GH5 image was taken with the excellent Olympus 45mm f/1.8 but the GH5 II with the much better Leica f/1.2 lens. True, both are taken at f/5.6 but the Leica is much sharper and produces better contrast and is less prone to resolution extinction.
In our Panasonic Lumix GH5 review, we test a camcorder/camera hybrid that outputs 4K at 60fps and speedy 12-fps stills -- and doesn't miss a beat.

The Panasonic GH5 II is good for sport and wildlife photography. While its continuous shooting speed is just okay, it also offers 4k and 6k burst photo modes that can effectively capture images at 30 or 60 fps in 4k and 30 fps in 6k, so you can capture specific moments of high-speed action.
