    I bought the Panasonic GH6 nearly a year ago and it's been a fantastic little camera. With any kit you buy there will be flaws that you will have to live with and perhaps need to nurture a new skill to compensate for a feature that does not perform as expected. This is true of ANY camera system and the flaws on each system will annoy different people to varying degrees because we are all different and have different critical uses. So if a lens or a feature causes you an issue for shooting wildlife it might not be a problem for someone else who shoots interviews or property/real estate etc. We are all different, we have different uses and therefore 'limitations' will affect us all differently. There is also the question of skill. I have seen so many times two people using the same tool but one is not achieving as good a result as the other and it boiled down to ones competence and skill or lack of. I hear so many complaints about the lack of gh6 autofocus yet they are using it for purposes where autofocus is not critical and in some cases they are using it in circumstances where manual focus would make more sense. I can give you an example! Sitting at a desk speaking to a camera for youtube videos. Ok I understand why autofocus might be useful if there is a shallow dof and the presenter has a lot of in and out head movement, but if the dof is not critical and or there is not so much head movement then there is no focus on the planet more reliable than manual focus in these situations. In fact I would say once set up manual focus is preferred because it does not rely on any face tracking and also if you are in a dark environment often you can kiss goodbye to even sonys autofocus which cannot operate reliably in certain dark situations. This camera business has so many variables and there is such a vast spectrum of personality types in people that really blur objectivity. We can only do our best based on our experience which is never exhaustive, not even in Gerald Undone who gets it wrong from time to time.

    Tip for manual focus on Panasonic- use a monochrome screen and red peaking. I use a GX85 as an everyday carry camera (smaller than my G9) and a lot of vintage lenses. This camera has HORRID peaking but this combo salvages it. Even with its EVF with less than 1M pixels.

    I am far from an expert at cameras. My first camera was a Sony a6400, and I upgraded to the Panasonic Lumix gh6. I love the lumix, I like the color, the functions, and pretty much everything about it. Yes, the autofocus is lacking, but I am a huge fan of manual focus, especially for my insect macro photography. Thing is, to my understanding Cinema cameras don't have auto focus. I don't think the black magic cameras have autofocus. Sony arguably has the best auto focus, but so long as your primary objective is not autofocus, I feel like the gh6 was a great purchase, at least for me. Now, I'm not a fanboy and it doesn't hurt my feelings that some people don't like this camera, and as the theme song was suggest, there is no perfect camera. But so far, this seems to be the best thing for the buck for me, and I am enjoying it. Love the channel

The feature set on the Gh6 is far more mature and generous too. Lenses, especially telephoto, are 1/2 the price, weight and size. Superb image from 5.7k prores or 800mbs h.264/5. Love the timecode and other options too. GH6 IS 1/2 THE PRICE…go figure.

    Let me just say this, I have to agree and disagree with you on some points:
    - I own the GH6 too and the FX30 (used to have the A7SIII), I love the colors on the GH6, the Sony colors are not great, they've improved that's for sure, but the GH6 image is so pleasing in almost every situation, minimal color grade is needed.
    - The battery life sure is not amazing, my G9 lasted double of 1 battery on the GH6, but keep in mind that you're pushing higher specs on the GH6, specially the stabe, on my Sony is a joke in comparison, and you know this.
    - The 4k 120p I feel its on the same level of quality if not better than the A7SIII (from what I see in the footage I have, and some you showed)
    - the manual focus I have to sadly agree there, its not the sharpest sure, I've talked to Lumix about it, I feel my G9's view finder was sharper to be honest, or atleast the Image looked sharper, wish they fix this because yes, sometimes I'm second guessing too.
    but overall I love my GH6, I've tried several systems and models, and the GH6 keeps confirming how amazing it is, I'm happy owning both Sony and Panasonic, best of both worlds, and I feel you're just making excuses in somethings to sell it, sure do what you want its you money but those quirks are easy to live with, the A7SIII has a lot of stuff I don't like and its better on the FX30 even, and again, if M4/3 is on par with a FF and its better then some FF on the market, that says a lot, I say keep the GH6 its a wonderful camera and I use it for work (commercials, social media jobs, short films) and as a Hobby I use it for Wildlife too.

    The best reason for a Panasonic camera must be the “open gate” sensor to film videos for 16:9, 1:1 and 9:16 at the same time. That is really intriguing to me. Never used it. Only once borrowed a GH2 in 2013 for a shoot and it was looking better and was more fun to use than my Sony camera. But that’s years ago back then Panasonic had better auto focus as neither Canon nor Sony had trustworthy autofocus 😂

    As soon as Kasey buys a camera we all start the timer until he makes a video about how much he needs to sell it because it no longer measures up. This has gotten so predictable that I am finally understanding that it is his deliberate strategy to drive views through trashing every camera on the planet, past, present, and future.
    I have already started a timer to count down until he posts a video of 5 reasons not to buy a Panasonic GH23, or a Canon R17, or a Fuji XT37 and a half. He would complain about the future Nikon, but we all know that they accidentally invented a space-time bending machine while trying to outdo Sony autofocus and they inadvertantly transported their factory into another dimension and they cannot figure out how to transport their futuristic cameras back to Earth because the janitor insists that the correct code is MIRRORLESS-D850 but none of the engineers believe him and they keep trying to punch in Pi but they can never get to the end of it to find out it is the wrong code.

    Apart from the missing viewfinder which is probably a big deal, the FX30 with the 11mm 1.8 and the 70-350mm is probably pretty close to what you are looking for. The crop in 4k120p isn’t bad for wildlife, animal eye detect autofocus, good stabilization(compared to other Sony cameras, not compared to Panasonic or Olympus) and very compact.
    If you want maximum reach you could throw the 200-600 on there. And a lens like your 20mm f1.8 would be nice for the studio on it.
    But, it’s a probably a pretty boring camera, coming from the A7S III with nothing really new and exiting, so I get ya.

    Many sources claim the highly regarded sensor on the old Nikon D700, was made by Panasonic? I don't know, but that sensor and camera were a jewel.
    ‘Ordinary Filmmaker’ has a video out saying Panny may be releasing a new AF system. I would think they would have the technical prowess, and be able to come out with a game changer? We will see. 👍✌

    Try the R6 Mark II with the RF 100-400. The lens is a little slow but I hear good things about it. The camera's eye AF is allegedly better than the R5 and original R6 and slo-mo is up to HD/180. I'm sure there's still plenty about it to rip.

    Feels like you've tried everything else, and it's pretty clear you won't get any improvements from Sony unless you go canon or nikon. And the only reason to go nikon these days imo is if you want an affordable native pro prime, and sacrifice some AF. Just go R6ii man! Can't wait till you try out the glorious eye AF. It's magic!

    • @spruceguse
      @spruceguse Рік тому

      from what i'm seeing, the Canon R6ii shoots only in H.264/H.265/MPEG-4 codecs? Two of those are really hard to edit smoothly on a PC, especially if you're trying to shoot 4k 422 10-bit. MOV and ProRes on the GH6 are fantastic to edit with. Editing choppy footage might be even more painful than a out of focus duck.

    • @simonthibodeau7082
      @simonthibodeau7082 Рік тому

      @spruceguse yeah I mean for him the R6ii is an even more expensive upgrade since he'll probably need to buy an rtx 3000 or something to put his PC up to date. Which sucks for sure but I guess those codecs aren't gonna change and you'd probably need to update your PC eventually anyway. Since he's been dabbling with topaz video AI anyway for example, a better gpu upgrade just for that is entirely justified imo.
      I guess my main point is not that he should definitely upgrade, just that upgrading to anything that doesn't have good animal eye af these days is simply a bad purchase decision in general. He can keep what he has now, nothing wrong with that. The GH6 ain't bad if you have it, but I would never recommend it to a new buyer for wildlife. I mean an oof shot is a missed shot, no other way around it...
