Great stuff. Thanks for sharing. Have you managed to find a solution for the moire effect yet?🎉

Kef R3 vs Genelec 8030c Which is better for nearfield use? They cost nearly same in my country, so I’m curious which one is better!

Amazingly enough, there is a company offering installation of an OLPF now, which is something that needs to be done in a proper lab with specialised equipment. As a result it is only available in limited quantity for a relatively high price. Practically speaking, it may only be useful for those in the USA too due to shipping, but I shall investigate it. kolarivision.com/product/olpf-aa-filter-upgrade-for-panasonic-lumix-s1-and-s5-cameras/?ref=126

How does pixelshift in S1 effect moire? And: Why dont you just set in camera sharpness on minus 2?

What does 'Hardingmaal' mean?

Love the review - really do and agree with all your comments. I returned my S5 Mll because of the terrible moire on both stills and video. No need for that background music. The information is interesting enough. Makes me feel that I'm watching this in a funeral parlour.

Help! Going through a terrible bout of it right now

Great video ! Can’t wait to see what you guys do next. Keep up the good work ! Also, love the mug.

When Will Flanders Scientific make a 7" monitor! Enough with these subpar small monitors.

Did they solved the problem?

Do you want to show every wrinkle in someone's face

Does this only happen in video? Crossing fingers it’s not a photograph problem

The other BIG issue with the S5iiX is the banding when shooting BRAW. Have you ever encountered this?? I'm gutted as this was the reason I bought the camera: ua-cam.com/video/DWogkeEV3Uc/v-deo.html

Does the GH5 II have the same issue?

Wow at 7:05 that is totally unusable. So what do S5 Mark II owners do about it?

Why not just fix it in post? some gaussian blur in davinci on channels and it's generally gone, at least never saw footages (i don't own an S5iix but did color grade a hefty load of footages from various cameras with moire issues) that weren't quickly saved in post when shot in prores 422

Comedian Marc Maron first introduced me to the concept of what I later came to know as Gear Acquisition Syndrome in an old bit of his where he talks about needing a pair of "magic running shoes" that would make him leave the house and actually exercise, all by themselves, without him having to do anything. Shopping addiction exists in all areas, and like you said, it's always an excuse, a displacement strategy like any other addictive behavior. Just listen to Gabor Mate talk openly about his addiction to shopping for classical music. In contrast to "normal" shopping addiction, G.A.S. is particularly sad though because it turns creative activity and/or self-therapy into paralysis and self-harm.

wow, what a disaster. SHAME on panasonic for this. completely idiotic and unacceptable.

I have the S5ii. I get moire when shooting video of clothing. It happens with my X H2s also.

Exactly, @Panasonic! Put OLPF on your video centric cameras… I just shot a wedding video and I didn’t notice the moire until I got home and a lot of the footage was ruined… Moire is unfixable in post. Please fix this Panasonic.

I suspect the Doepfer A-198 would be the best controller for something like this

Thank you. Concise.

Thank you for your work on this. I bought an S5IIX a few weeks ago. In many ways it's the perfect camera, but my previous Canon camera haunted me with moire and I can't have that constant concern again. Because of this and other videos I've seen on this issue, I’m looking into changing the S5iiX for the Sony FX3 which does have OLPF, as does the FX30. But ... I don’t want to as the S5IIX is great in every other way. From what I’ve read on this, and I’m no expert, moire is less likely if shooting at the sensors full range as this prevents down sampling which is a component of moire. I wondered if using a diffusion filter to soften image, whilst shooting at 6k may be the only solution. I spoke to someone who uses vintage glass with S5IIX and they reported no problems. But I don’t have that luxury unfortunately. I simply don't know why Panasonic didnt add OLPF filter to the X. The GH5'S' added OLPF. The S1'H' added the OLPF. Either there were technical reason, or not having OLPF filter maintains product sepration for the true 'cinema' S1H series which is soon to be upgraded. Maybe the fear was the S5IIX would canabalise sales of that camera. The Lumix G5H'S' has OLPF and is cheaper than the S5IIX, but has none of the image stabilisation etc. So it may be a product separtion thing. Black Magic latest 6K cinema camera now has OLPF. Many thanks for your help on this dreaded subject.

Regarding the production of music I am glad that I dont have that much gear because I am doing things mostly out of the box. I guess its a general problem because nowadays you can get everything from everywhere. You are flooded with advertisings. "For this sound you need this. For that sound you must have this..." I think the point is that you can produce everything with everything if you just invest enough creative effort. Maybe its better to learn one tool and master that instead of heaving a toolbox with tools you never use. E.g. a pianist has only a piano and nothing more so he has to be creative to get the most out of the instrument. I know those words are easier said than done. When I think about buying additonal gear/software I try to ask myself "Do I really need this, does it really helps me to get that step further in creativity. Does it opens new creative worlds too me?". Well at least I try but I think its worth it unless you will sink in gear you will never use (that much). *blows the dust from his Microfreak*. Stay creative ;)

I currently own five Atomos recorders (3 Ninja Vs, one Ninja Blade and one Samurai Blade). None of these are very colour accurate and I just put up with it. I trust my cameras and I know that the recorders are recording what the cameras see. I set the white balance and I use the waveform and false colour to nail the exposure. I agree this can be a bit aggravating; however, because of the kind of work that I do, these recorders are essential for the work I do.

great informative video. i read through all the comments and I must admit the amount of the details shared here. One of the Lumix S5 user told me that if he shoots video in V-LOG, he never sees any moire. Not sure if he didn't notice it or he was telling the truth. Any thoughts?

This could potentially be a solution. ua-cam.com/video/K9hvb4vKJnY/v-deo.html

Just look at their Spinorama, there are many so called "studio monitors" that measure worse, yet people still fall for marketing BS.

But tbh, which full frame mirrorless at this price point doesn't have moiré? I have read online that the R6 does, so does the A7IV. Or are theirs not as bad as the Lumix's?

When I was younger I wrote more songs on my cheap gear but it was definitely limiting. Now I have amazing gear but I don't have the same momentum with songwriting. I was watching a Beatles documentary and realised they started with some pretty crappy instruments...but by Sergeant Peppers they had the best gear and musicians at their disposal and the sound was definitely better. They didn't need to own everything because the Abbey Road studio had so much great stuff. Hunger and drive matters the most...but it is pretty cool to be able to have gear that helps rather than hinders your overall sound. I think what helped me when I was younger is that I had more community supporting me. The more hours and years you put into something I feel it earns as well the credibility and need for better gear. Yo-yo ma has the right to buy an $100,000 cello if he wants because he's made millions.

It's rarely about need - it's about want. That's how they hook you 😊

This is a ridiculous video, do you realize how many great videos are made without OLPF. For some reason there are a few people that think it’s the end of the world when it’s clearly not a big issue. I never had a OLPF and never suffered from moire.

I don't know what camera to get, I hate the look of really sharp digital cameras which I think a lot of high res panasonic cameras have especially with a new lens, it's so the opposite of what professional cameras look like. It's weird because it isn't fake sharpness, the detail is there but it looks so jarring, cinema cameras somehow capture the same detail in a less harsh looking way. That said these new sharp cameras look amazing with vintage lenses that soften the image. But I really want to be able to get the soft netflix look with my own camera, that would be really amazing. I'm thinking maybe the s1h is the only one, black magic is good too but I like photography so having it do both is just ideal. There are so many camera options it's so hard to choose one. Probably not super important at the end of the day you can use anything but still, I want as close to the soft alexa look in a hybrid camera as I can get, but I'm worried if I get a used s1h they'll just bring out a new one with loads of amazing features I want and then I'll be sad because probably won't be able to swap.

The biggest CURE for GAS that hasn’t been highlighted enough is to simply use what you have. That’s it. You will start to love the work most and not the tool, and if you really need a different tool for the job it’ll be appearant in your work.

i love how u expressed this idea. wholeheartedly agree. something like moire/banding/flicker is too distracting vs minute gains in sharpness. shame, i love my gx85/g85 and the panasonic approach is so feature rich and user friendly. i am trying out the s5iix and i didnt notice while shooting, but after i dumped the footage, i saw some banding and flicker in my first tests as well. i saw some ppl say to try synchroscan, but its mainly the issue of *not noticing the moire *while shooting** and then discovering the issue later that makes me queasy. otherwise, the value for the features is top notch for the price. but def the fact i didnt notice the moire/flicker/banding etc makes me uneasy when shooting w the s5iix. on the fence about doin a return, jus arrived this week. i love the ibis and full frame/4k60 features. weatherproof, all around image quality aside from moire n flicker etc. but its a signif issue, noticed moire on tshirts and flicker shooting outdoor urban scenes.

I had this camera, completely ruin a corporate shoot, I’m so lucky that they paid, because if it would’ve been may paying I would have said no. The Moire is absolutely horrendous. I have never had a camera in my life. Be so bad with handling this. Now I’m stuck with a camera that I cannot sell for a reasonable amount of money.

You are so right. Thank you for the video.

Strangely, I have the opposite problem. The Ninja V I've been using always makes reds look too pink and oversaturated. It's more like an artificial cherry candy. Other cameras will pick up the same color as a red-orange, or a proper medium red. I can usually balance it out in post, but it's annoying to do that every time. The really strange part is that if I film something with green lighting and then switch back to white, THEN the white will look orange.

Was thinking of buying the S5ii because it was on a deal (as a result of the X coming out). I've been toying with the S1H and the S5ii. S5ii is obviously new, with new auto focus features, updated tech, comes with a kit lens etc and is pretty much identical to the S1H quality wise. Why is the S1H so much more expensive? It's annoying because it feels like old tech but I don't want to pay out for the S5ii if that moire is as bad as you say. I want flawless shots, cinematic looking scenes in short movies I create. Moire is going to ruin those shots and now I'm not sure if the S5ii is worth it when you say the S1H gives you a natural look out the box. Is the tech really that different to where the S5ii isn't worth it. Is the S1H really that large?

lovely video!

The new Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K sounds even more attractive considering its full-frame, uses the L-mount and includes a optical low pass filter.

For me it was synths. I bought my very first drum machine and cheap synth to experiment with sound, put out some music for myself and have fun. Although I’ve acquired a lot, I’ve stopped and when I feel that urge to acquire I go back to the first two devices I bought that one fateful day and just play. Just the two of them, on the floor, just like I did the first time I plugged them in to remind myself why I’m in this ❤

Great video! Thanks!

in what settings did you encounter this moire effect ?

So cool AFX used this in his new tracks

I just returned mine after facing this problem

This is the most painful video ever produced……. You nailed like a pro, me and my 45 guitars thank you 🙏

I'd thought the price would be ginormous, but it's quite reasonable.
