LUMIX Tether compatibility: cameras, versions and connections

Support is granted per camera body in a specific application release. A body that is on the supported list will still be invisible to an older install. The "minimum version" column below is the release in which Panasonic added that model.

Compiled from Panasonic's published release notes. Last checked 2026-09-08. Where we have not verified something, it is left blank rather than guessed.

Operating system support

  • Windows: Windows 10 (64-bit, 22H2) · Windows 11 (21H2 – 24H2)
  • macOS: macOS 12 Monterey · macOS 13 Ventura · macOS 14 Sonoma · macOS 15 Sequoia on Intel and Apple Silicon

On recent macOS releases, connecting several cameras over USB at the same time is documented as not working correctly. For multi-camera work on a Mac, use wired LAN on a body that supports it. Details are on the Mac page.

Reading the connection column

  • USB — the standard route; requires a data-rated USB-C cable and PC(Tether) mode.
  • Wired LAN — a physical Ethernet port on the body (box cameras).
  • Wired LAN via USB adapter — no RJ45 on the body; a USB-C to Gigabit Ethernet adapter provides it.
  • Wi-Fi — supported on the box cameras, but the least reliable option for remote control.

What this table does not tell you

Feature availability differs by body beyond the connection type: menu control, saving and loading camera settings, firmware updating from the application and HDMI recorder control were introduced for a limited set of bodies. We have not verified the current per-model feature matrix line by line, so rather than publish a guess, we point you at Panasonic's page for the definitive supported-function list.
