Panasonic originally announced the GH6 camera last May, with a target delivery of before the end of the year, but due to the global shortage of key components, that date was subsequently pushed.

At the time of the original development announcement, Panasonic stated that the GH6 will accommodate a wide variety of recording modes and shooting assist functions, the LUMIX GH6 will deliver next-generation video performance built to satisfy a wide variety of creative requirements, redefining the possibilities for video recording in an interchangeable lens camera.

According to the teaser, the camera will be announced via a YouTube Livestream at 1 am UTC / 8 pm EST on February 22, 2022.

There are few details about what to expect in Panasonic’s video-centric Micro Four Thirds camera. The company did say that it would be able to capture 4:2:2 10-bit DCI 4K footage at up to 60 frames per second and do so for an unlimited amount of time when used under certified operating temperatures. It will also be able to shoot 10-bit 4K 120 frames per second High Frame Rate (HFR) and Variable Frame Rate (VFR) video.

Perhaps most exciting is that Panasonic mentions a newly developed sensor that allows it to record a 10-bit 5.7K 60p video. Micro Four Thirds has seen little development when it comes to a wholly new sensor, and it remains to be seen if this is just an advancement on top of the same hardware it has been using for years or if the sensor is entirely new.
