I’d say the Lumix is better if its mainly video work, it has better video focused toolset, open gate etc.
If its hybrid work then the Nikon would be better.
Easy: if you need non-cropped 4k60 or any kind of 4k120, get the Nikon. Otherwise, get the Lumix, particualrly if you're outside the US. You WILL love the 6k Open Gate. (The Nikon is almost twice as expesive as the S5 II outside the States.)
That pricing is strange
I have and had
S1R, S5II, S9, Z6, Z6iii, Z8, Zfc. I sold the Z6, Zfc, and S5II.
Today at home, I have the S1R, S9, Z8, and Z6iii. My favorite is the Z8 because it is more powerful, and I am more of a photographer than a videographer. For photography, I had no affinity with the S5II, which is why I sold it. I prefer taking photos with the S1R/Z8/Z6iii and even the S9. I also have the Fuji X100vi. Well, all of this has nothing to do with video. What I wanted to say is that for photography, not video, the autofocus of the Nikon Z8/Z6iii is better than that of Panasonic.
Interesting observations
The S5iiX is a versatile hybrid camera that excels in video production, particularly for professional use. It offers a more affordable option compared to some Nikon models.
While Nikon is moving in the right direction, there is still room for improvement in their video capabilities. Features like dual recording and Open Gate would significantly enhance their mirrorless cameras. I am tot sure why Nikon is taking so much time to introduce at least one of these two features.
As an owner of the S5iiX, I highly recommend it. It's a fantastic choice, especially considering its availability in the used market for under $1800.
If the S5IIX's 60fps Crop is a limitation, you can effectively use it as a B-camera, as its v-log color files can easily match most other brands.
I think the S5iix is closer in price here in the US to the Z6III. You can get a lens or 2 with the S5IIX for the same cost as the Z6III Body alone . Just my input not saying better just a killer deal .
If you don’t high frame rates… yes that IS a killer deal! And most storytellers do not need high frame rates
@@FramesTM yeah I wish it had 4k 120 or even just 4k 60 with no crop
@@TwoTimesRmediawait for lumix s1hii this year . the 1st version has no crop in 4k60. and probably will be better in higher frame rates
@@dmgfilmproductionandphotog1567 that will be nice to see but, I'm ok with the S5ii X . I hope they release a beast of a camera in the s1h II
BTW, in the video you mention Panasonic doesn't pay much attention to still photos. While I agree (and wouldn't really recommend the S5 II as a plain photo-only camera with for example Sony having tons of lenses, incl. extra-cheap ones), one should also take into account that the 6K OG video of these Lumix models are an excellent sills resource if you 1, can put up with the somewhat (NOT much!!!) worse quality 2, shoot videos to later be able to grab proper frames (that is, you shoot high shutter speeds to freeze motion / avoid camera blur). I've been doing this for ages - that is, I shoot video 99% of the time, with sufficiently high shutter speeds and later grab the frame I also want to distribute as a still photo. These 6K OG videos are of extremely high image quality - if I can choose between shooting a video I can also publish, unless it's extremely dark or I need 96 Mpixels, I just shoot video and grab stills later.
Great comparison Frames. On the AF section, I think the background was too bright for the cameras to detect the pen well. Sony has a feature I would love Nikon to adopt, which is Pre-AF, where the camera starts focusing prior to pressing the shutter button work in photo and video modes. That aids their AF system to perform better than Nikon as it's it's pretty much in focus before you press the shutter. I'm one that prefers to have the recording done internally, rather than an external drive, also, I wish they would have added active cooling.
Thank you Wayne!
I do like that you can record video to two cards at the same time on the Lumix and that it has a shutter angle. However, the Nikon is a better ecosystem that would be even better if it had access to full-frame Sigma lenses.
I will say that with my Nikon I sometimes use my ninja V that I had from when I had a Lumix S5 and I can record to the SSD while recording internally. If you shoot with Lumix and want RAW video you have to hook up an external SSD regardless.
would have been good to see a detailed test of dynamic range like z6iii vs a7siii.
i think the s5ii has 1 stop more DR but 4k 60 crop and no internal raw recording is definitely a drawback.
am fine with no open gate recording on z6iii. i like to shoot horizontal video rather than cropping.
i don't shoot weddings or events. so dual recording isn't a problem too.
i hope Nikon will have more third party lens in the future.
how does z6iii compare to z8 in terms of dynamic range ?
God d@it you were supposed to tell me which one to buy. 😂 Great video.
🤦🏽♂️😝
How does nikon deal with overheating on a days shoot? No active cooling seems concerning given the high frame and bitrates
Video upcoming soon
The Panasonic system definitely looks better optimized for video. The Z6iii clip looked herky jerky even with the IBIS. The Panasonic was smoother. Also Nikon needs to fix the AF algorithm in the firmware for video. The part of the scene that is not moving is the background, while the waving pen is screaming "hey focus on me!" Seems like they can fix that with a firmware update. Don't get me wrong I love Nikon - have the Z6ii and Z7ii and love them - I don't shoot video or anything that requires blazing fast AF.
Hmm yes. I also found another new perspective on this in the comments section. Check
Lumix s5ii vs sony a7iv which is best bro?
S5iiX
Thank you for your balanced insights!
Thanks. Interesting to see how companies adopt different approaches to issues. Regarding the auto-focus it's not a right or wrong issue, and depending on the situation, one approach may be preferable. I think Nikon's approach is better as the Panasonic can get distracted by some inadvertent object that gets in the way of the true target.
I hope your model gets paid well 😄
😄
The Z6III has a faster sensor while sacrificing DR. The S5II/X is a better body for video but with a slower sensor. More professional features like dual slot recording, active cooling, open gate, shutter angle are big misses on the Z6III. The IBIS is also not up to par with the S5II.
And photography also goes either way. Better rolling shutter on the E shutter modes and a faster mechanical shutter burst are advantages for the Z6III. But RAW pre burst, handheld high resolution mode in camera, better DR are also notable advantages for the S5II. The EVF is class leading on the Z6III.
And most importantly there is a pretty significant price difference in most markets between these two cameras. You can get an S5II, a 20-60, a 50 f1.8 and an 85 f1.8 and still save some cash over the Z6III body only. That is some serious value.
much awaited!
So what’s your decision!
@@FramesTM Z6iii, no brainer!
In my country Z63 costs 2700 vs 1700 of Lumix - so price to value Lumix is much much better
That’s a very strange price difference
Great❤
Great
Why does this video look so bad?
