Panasonic's video-focused Micro Four Thirds camera features a full-size HDMI Type A port that, via firmware, conforms to HDMI 2.1 and can output 4K/120p — far more robust than the micro HDMI on most mirrorless bodies. A USB-C terminal at the USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) tier handles fast offload and charging. Dedicated 3.5mm microphone and headphone jacks support serious sound, and an optional XLR adapter mounts on the hot shoe for balanced audio. Dual card slots combine one CFexpress Type B for high-bitrate ProRes with one UHS-II SD.

Notes & Compatibility
Full-size HDMI Type A; raised to HDMI 2.1 spec (4K/120p output) via firmware v2.3. Both 3.5mm mic and headphone jacks. Storage is dual: one CFexpress Type B (proprietary card media, kept in prose) and one UHS-II SD slot (modeled). Flash sync socket and optional DMW-XLR1 hot-shoe XLR adapter covered in prose. Panasonic specifies USB Power Delivery at 9 V/3 A on the USB-C port, so use a PD charger that offers 9 V at 3 A. The 3.5mm MIC jack switches in the menu between plug-in-power mic, mic and line input, so a mixer or wireless receiver can feed it at line level. A 2.5mm REMOTE jack takes a wired remote, and timecode in/out runs through the flash sync socket with the supplied BNC conversion cable.
