If you're a fan of full-frame mirrorless cameras, then a new option might be heading your way soon. Back in May, it was rumoured that Panasonic would announce its flagship Lumix GH6 mirrorless camera in August. That hasn't happened yet, but new rumours of a Lumix S5 have already begun to surface.

According to camera leaker Nokishita, a teaser image and tech specs of the Panasonic Lumix S5 have been found. In terms of design, it seems like it'll be similar to the Lumix S1 but may be smaller in size. As for key features, it's expected to have a 24.2MP full-frame CMOS sensor, 5-axis image stabilisation, and the Contrast autofocus system with DFD (Depth From Defocus).

As for the rumoured tech specs, there's 4K video recording at 60p, ISO of up to 204800, and 7fps burst shooting (5fps with Live View). It's also supposed to have a 2.36-million dot EVF and a display with LUT View Assist. The battery has a capacity of 2200mAh and should last for at least 440 shots if the display is switched on.

We don't have a lot of details or any confirmation to go with this leak, but Nokishita has been reliable in the past so this news is probably legit.
