The GH6 is built around a sensor with parallel high and low-gain readouts to deliver a 'Dynamic Range Boost' mode that Panasonic says delivers more than 13 stops of dynamic range at higher ISO settings. It becomes the first GH camera to use the full VariCam V-Log profile.
The Panasonic Lumix DC-GH6 comes at a recommended price of $2199. This is a $200 increase, compared with the GH5's original price in March 2017 but $200 less expensive than the GH5S was, at launch.
