you can beat that thing. God bless. Jesus heals. But i hear ya. Keep a good mood and water fast the shit ouf of that cancer. It will die before you will.
@@avarmadillo yeah, got the 24mm and I can go 60p with the super duper stabe after the last update, focus is amazing now second only to sony and it's awesome!!
My 20-60mm (was the kit lens with S5) and 70-300mm both operate smoothly, but then again mine aren't stunt lenses for performing falls onto hard surfaces.
As I was watching the review, thinking that there are a lot of things to be a little disappointed in (cropping, no AF in high fps modes, and a low 180 max fps, less than quality feel to the lenses) but then I saw the actual video images and they are pretty amazing!
best wildlife image quality i ve seen by you mate, good job panny, i think that you will like the sigma ...as they say all L-mount lenses are like 1st party.... go get em tiger
Man, your videos are so awesome, best scene... camara drops... F..... ** ......... C ....... ** LOOOOL Love it! Great video, very entertaining as usual!
there is something about the panni codecs for wildlife, they just look good. I keep returning to the g9 even if the AF is subpar, vs. Sony or Olympus. For a basic FF hybrid, it is difficult not to go for the s5.2 with that kit lens. Lets see now a GH6-like fast readout version.
The S5 AF is better than the G9, and it's keenly priced right now. At lower frame it rates allows for full frame and "telephoto" aps-c shots with one lens. I use vintage manual glass for video so autofocus isn't an issue.
@@borderlands6606 I have the S5M2, so no need to settle for the S5 worse AF 🙂. But for telephoto I still use M43, I cannot lug around the current FF lenses >300mm, it is just silly.
I used to have Sony x3000. While I was a good action camera, I ended up selling it. Panasonic had firmware upgrade. You don’t need atmos ninja. Only needed if you want to recorded bm raw. Can recorded to ssd, while it is external, it is much faster and cheaper than sd or cf express. Ibis is amazing on lumix, open gate 6k, vlog. Da Vinci resolve also supports vlog, so no need to colour correct but have option if you want to.
It would be amazing to see Panasonic's new autofocus tech trickle down to a possible G85 successor in the near future. Maybe a crop sensor version cut down from the full frame, instead of m43. Split the difference.
@@DennisDinges True, didn't realise how big the g9 and gh7 were. Even bigger than my s5ii! I love my G85, perfect m43 sizewise apart from the dodgy autofocus.
I got the s5ii, love the image out of it and the stabe is crazy especially with the 24-105. Rigged up - can't even imagine how steady it would be. For casual video, the natural profile looks really nice. If you're going to get the s5iix, just put the cash down and get that kondor blue ssd handle. It's slick as hell. I'm guessing the in-camera raw is going to be the big daddy model since it's such a niche feature that the main people who need it are the folks with equipment budgets who can write off a new camera. Also heard they're doing $400 discounts when you buy an s5iix and lens together. If it would have been practical for me - that's the deal I would have gone for.
@@davidvictory9764 it has AF but it's contrast detect up to I believe 100 or 120 frames iirc. From 120-180 it's manual only. The quality of the 180 isn't very good and I would only use it for casual/social media use. It's not going to look good on a bigger screen
@@karikaru oh that sucks. So hard to choose a camera as nothing seems perfect even tho realistocly it's more than enough. I thought I was the only one that thought 180fps looked awful on the gh5 and very digital and noisy. Thx now I know
@@davidvictory9764 no problem! Yeah I'm rarely using slow motion or if I do, it's 60fps so not a big deal for me but I can understand for others it can be.
@@davidvictory9764 I'm in the same boat! I've been waiting since before the A7iv/Z6ii came out to figure out what I want to throw my money down on!?!? That has to be a pretty big statement - I have had the money to buy a camera (in the 2-3k price range), plus a good lens and accessories for 4-6 years now, but still haven't - due to , you guessed it - consistent crippling and hammering!
I bought the S5M2X a year ago after watching this video. I've been using the 20-60 kit lens which has been fine for my mediocre YT channel. I have a 24mm 1.8 on the way since I only really use the 20-60 at 24mm. I'm glad it has the same filter size so I can move my Black Pro Mist over to the new lens when it gets here. Will the cinema finally be ours? Time will tell.
3:04 yes I was testing the s5 II two days ago and had the same "issue" the zoom on the 20-60 is pretty stiff or how you wanna call it. It's the opposite of smooth.
Buuudy!!! been awhile and Im still laughing. Love your content cracks me up. If you are ever in Calgary and want to go for a beer give me shout would be a blast to hang out!! Cheers my friend and all I want is the perfect camera as well haha!!
I'm infatuated with the stabilization on the Panasonic, only used Canon and Sony cause i use the autofocus to film myself...but man i've got my eyes on a Panny might hold out for an updated 4/3rds for form factor.
I heard that the S5ii doesn't have USB-C streaming, though it may be possible through the HDMI to a Cam Link. I don't know for sure, though. I think the S5iiX does allow USB-C streaming. Maybe I'm using the wrong word. Web-cam? Is web-cam the same as streaming? Putting a video/audio signal directly to the computer.
Disagree. The value for a video shooter--the S5iiX can't be beat. I wouldn't trade it for an A7sIII, a camera that won't even do DCI. You call that video?!?!? Not I! The Panasonic hand held look is MAGIC! BEST VAUE on the market.
Yeah we know, you still have issues with it..... But honestly, I think the S5 checks all my boxes so hard that it wipes them clean off the list! I wouldn't even have a list if I had an S5. Keep in mind though, I can barely use my G9 properly so I'm definitely not ready for an S5, but that won't stop me from buying one if the right deal comes around. Yeah I already have an Atmos 5, and I've got plenty of SSD's which this camera can use right out of the box. You don't need the ninja from my understanding, just an external SSD, but I already have both so I'm good to go! Cheers 🍻
The way I look a the S5 vs S5II is they are in a completely different price bracket of camera. S5 is at an optimal price to performance level for full frame, the S5II starts heading towards competing with the above optimal camera range, and it's price for the small feature bump shows it. Especially if like me you got the S5 on a super sale when the S5II was coming out lol.
Apparently Sigma and Leica lenses are not third party for Lumix cameras, Sean from Lumix USA was explaining that in one of his videos. That's a whole point of L-mount alliance.
OMG 😂 I have tears in my eyes dude, I still cant stop laughing, catching that tip over on camera was epic beyond epic, we've all done it (sort of) my god the comedy of unintentional errors is the best comedy. Made my day man cheers.
Love your stuff. but yeah there's not a lot of $2000-2300 cameras that will do Prores, Prores RAW, etc in camera. Even if you could, SD cards are ridiculously inefficient in terms of both storage space and price for anything past H264/H265. So i don't really think it's fair to criticize that. After all, for most of the main mirrorless cams in this price range in recent years, you'd need an external recorder AND SSD to do that kinda stuff anyway. Personally i'd rather have the option to record to an SSD i have lying around. I know you're being dramatic, but you don't need a $200-300 SSD to record anyway. You can get old samsung NVMEs that are like 512GB with an enclosure for like...$60 all in? 1TB SSDs, you don't need the fastest ones, virtually any modern SSD is more than capable of those bitrates. I'd much rather just pony up for an SSD than pay whatever the hell they charge for massive SD cards that are also uber fast if i need that kind of data rate. Truth is that the VAST majority of people are just fine shooting like 100-150mbps H264 and still getting amazing results. Even for paid work it's rarely worth going over that unless it's actually high end. And if you're doing work that really warrants ProRes or RAW, you are basically expected to rig things out regardless, even just to make corporate clients make you think you're 'worth the money'. The flexibility this camera offers is fantastic.
Pani boy is definatelly a winner here as a best hybrid camera - ZVE1 is trash in photo, 12 mpx, no pixel shift. Yess, 4k 120 is nice, but with all the e stab you still get a crop. R8 has the best 4k 60, no crop, but 0 stab + you need to watch out for overheating.
Love that bokeh on the Panasonic but not bokeh on that x3000. That is the differences here folks. More separation from the subject from the background so you can focus more on the subject or person(s) good job Panasonic 9:29 - 9:42
@@cameraconspiracies I'm working on the 3.0 update of my 55M Advanced Luts. Maybe you want to try these out? These also fix the oversaturated red issue in V-Log.
@@cameraconspiracies you might have some settings wrong preferences. It should be pretty neutral after a transfer. You could also try some like film convert nitrate, or dehancer. They have free trials with watermarks before you need to buy. I have film convert and it’s does a really good job of converting log to a good and accurate image.
That Panny is just incredible. The things you are mentioning - vloggers so many times - 99 % of people are going to record in 60fps no matter what. Imo whats most important for a vlogger is stabilisation, and hands on, there is probably no camera with better IBIS in this price range than this one. The options for amateur filmographers are there as well with that huge selection of codecs (SSD tho, but you want to use that anyway if doing filmmaking). The only real hit this camera gets is that crop while recording, but sharpness, color science and stabilisation are way over its price league.
😅 I've known for a while that you have this channel but this is my first time watching it. I've been an event videographer for about 20 years. But I've evolved into more documentary style stuff and never rigged a camera before. But I just bought an FX30 and started rigging it up. Ever since I got a cage and v mount I've been experimenting with different monitors, trying different handles, even got a Ronan RS3 pro and thinking about adding it to the cage and handles all crazy, saving up to get the FX3 but holding off well I learn on the FX30 in hopes they will upgrade it which has to be coming please!!!!
I find it humorous that you can buy the FX3, a cinema camera, and not have prores (because you don’t have a Ninja), no shuttter angle and only 16:9 and 17:9 recording, or buy the S5IIX and Ninja and rig it for the same price as the FX3. The S5IIX isn’t really the best vlogging or videography camera but has far more standard cinema features.
dude I love the way how you explain the things) keep going ) no mater what the camera)))) you just need a right broom ))) Its super funny even fo russians ))))))))
I dont mind a crop every time, usually prefer, but what is the quality loss as I see Lumix crop gets better quality when cropping but that was just 2 videos
I'll take having to use a cage, that I would already be putting on the camera anyway, to hold an SSD, over having to pay over 50 cents per gigabyte for a CF express card. Best Buy, as of this writing, has a San Disk usb C 4Tb SSD for $250. Insane price difference. Worth the cage, cable and mount imo.
I'm that guy that helps the S5 ii x out.... I've got it rigged up all pretty with my video assist, ssd, and external battery. It's nice having so much power with a versatile form fsctor. I shoot all my free time footage in FHD prores, and most of my client ahoots too. You can crop in pixel- pixel to in FHD, which gives your folcal length a 3.125 boost. That way, you can really reach out with a 300mm. I do use sigma glass tho....
Dude, for the BRAW you need the Video Assist, not the Ninja Atomos. For birds you dont need BRAW. But that prores option on the S5iix is the one to shoot at. I am actually suprised you went for that OG BMCC and not the Sigma FP. It probably cost and weight the same, but the Sigma kill it. And it can shoot raw internally. Thats right! The panny looks amazing allthough its a bit souless. Would wait to see what Leica would bring instead of the SL2-S (a remake of the panny).
Damn I wish you got a better shot of that Pink car in the background at 9:48! It would have been great ti show Panasonic saturation! If slightly more than candy floss!
Man you're a great actor and I believe you know It. Best than lots of them in Hollywood 😎 So, could helpe me to pick a camera? I almost bought a gh6. I'd like something, necessarilly same price, but just around this price (it could be more). Thanks for this help and for the brilliant channel! Thanks, cause I didin't buy gh6. And what a relief!

Yea, that was scary. Thankfully, it was a short tripod. If it was taller, who knows what damaged might have been done.
Love your stuff. but yeah there's not a lot of $2000-2300 cameras that will do Prores, Prores RAW, etc in camera. Even if you could, SD cards are ridiculously inefficient in terms of both storage space and price for anything past H264/H265. So i don't really think it's fair to criticize that. After all, for most of the main mirrorless cams in this price range in recent years, you'd need an external recorder AND SSD to do that kinda stuff anyway. Personally i'd rather have the option to record to an SSD i have lying around. I know you're being dramatic, but you don't need a $200-300 SSD to record anyway. You can get old samsung NVMEs that are like 512GB with an enclosure for like...$60 all in? 1TB SSDs, you don't need the fastest ones, virtually any modern SSD is more than capable of those bitrates. I'd much rather just pony up for an SSD than pay whatever the hell they charge for massive SD cards that are also uber fast if i need that kind of data rate.
Truth is that the VAST majority of people are just fine shooting like 100-150mbps H264 and still getting amazing results. Even for paid work it's rarely worth going over that unless it's actually high end. And if you're doing work that really warrants ProRes or RAW, you are basically expected to rig things out regardless, even just to make corporate clients make you think you're 'worth the money'. The flexibility this camera offers is fantastic.
The blacks do not look right from the S5iix. Is that a grading issue, or the nature of the sensor?
Grading. I'm getting very low noise blacks on my S5d
Enjoying all the content... more confused than ever... but happy.
20:54 When you look how the wood is flickering in the pan-movement.
Is that a result of the rolling shutter?
The picture is so turbulent.
Thank you for the mirror duck in my life.
Pani boy is definatelly a winner here as a best hybrid camera - ZVE1 is trash in photo, 12 mpx, no pixel shift. Yess, 4k 120 is nice, but with all the e stab you still get a crop. R8 has the best 4k 60, no crop, but 0 stab + you need to watch out for overheating.
Love that bokeh on the Panasonic but not bokeh on that x3000. That is the differences here folks. More separation from the subject from the background so you can focus more on the subject or person(s) good job Panasonic 9:29 - 9:42
Can’t wait for your V10 thoughts!
Looks like you hit the JJ before this friend 😂❤😂 7:17
please make a compare video of a7iv and s5ii x
Yo!
A very nice review. Fresh and fun way to do it! Cheers Mate!
I have heard that those Panny lenses are stiff new and loosen up with a but of use
dont you kind of have to choose between the atomos or the black magic? isnt it either prores raw or braw?
Nice thumbnail! Hahahaha had to click on it no matter what! Love your videos anyway!
For vlog have you tried a color space transform? That generally gets you a good picture.
It's still too red. Red is quite oversaturated right now and many are hoping for a fix since it also results in red gamut clipping in certain cases.
That was colour space transform...
@@cameraconspiracies I'm working on the 3.0 update of my 55M Advanced Luts. Maybe you want to try these out? These also fix the oversaturated red issue in V-Log.
@@cameraconspiracies you might have some settings wrong preferences. It should be pretty neutral after a transfer. You could also try some like film convert nitrate, or dehancer. They have free trials with watermarks before you need to buy. I have film convert and it’s does a really good job of converting log to a good and accurate image.
@@Photovintageguy Settings aren't wrong, there's only 1 option lol. It's a known issue. Panasonic's official LUT is even worse.
That Panny is just incredible. The things you are mentioning - vloggers so many times - 99 % of people are going to record in 60fps no matter what. Imo whats most important for a vlogger is stabilisation, and hands on, there is probably no camera with better IBIS in this price range than this one. The options for amateur filmographers are there as well with that huge selection of codecs (SSD tho, but you want to use that anyway if doing filmmaking). The only real hit this camera gets is that crop while recording, but sharpness, color science and stabilisation are way over its price league.
😅 I've known for a while that you have this channel but this is my first time watching it. I've been an event videographer for about 20 years. But I've evolved into more documentary style stuff and never rigged a camera before. But I just bought an FX30 and started rigging it up. Ever since I got a cage and v mount I've been experimenting with different monitors, trying different handles, even got a Ronan RS3 pro and thinking about adding it to the cage and handles all crazy, saving up to get the FX3 but holding off well I learn on the FX30 in hopes they will upgrade it which has to be coming please!!!!
Could tell immediately which camera is the Sony. It's the one that makes your skin look orange.
The starling shot is beautiful! :)
I find it humorous that you can buy the FX3, a cinema camera, and not have prores (because you don’t have a Ninja), no shuttter angle and only 16:9 and 17:9 recording, or buy the S5IIX and Ninja and rig it for the same price as the FX3. The S5IIX isn’t really the best vlogging or videography camera but has far more standard cinema features.
The Black Magic made you look like you have a sun burn. Pany looks great, but the GH6 looked better, especially in slow-mo.
Just rewatched this.. and the wildlife footage is actually magical! (Panasonic) colours are real :D
Loved the interface in black magic but hated to color grading aspect
dude I love the way how you explain the things) keep going ) no mater what the camera)))) you just need a right broom ))) Its super funny even fo russians ))))))))
I dont mind a crop every time, usually prefer, but what is the quality loss as I see Lumix crop gets better quality when cropping but that was just 2 videos
I'll take having to use a cage, that I would already be putting on the camera anyway, to hold an SSD, over having to pay over 50 cents per gigabyte for a CF express card. Best Buy, as of this writing, has a San Disk usb C 4Tb SSD for $250. Insane price difference. Worth the cage, cable and mount imo.
Sadly, the Pannys are limited to 2TB SSDs. I use several with my GH6 and now I have the S5 IIX on the way.
Legend ❤
I'm that guy that helps the S5 ii x out.... I've got it rigged up all pretty with my video assist, ssd, and external battery. It's nice having so much power with a versatile form fsctor.
I shoot all my free time footage in FHD prores, and most of my client ahoots too. You can crop in pixel- pixel to in FHD, which gives your folcal length a 3.125 boost. That way, you can really reach out with a 300mm.
I do use sigma glass tho....
why panasonik is a bit crop ❓
I have an S5ii with the 20-60 and the 70-300 and both zoom and focus really smoothly - you've not been playing on a sandy beach have you?
✖️ the last man we can trust in cam gear game. We owe him.
Man you need to try R8 + rf 100-400mm it would be fun . Althought the fun only last for 30 minutes lol
Gets all cameras for free from camera companies. Complains about all camera companies 😂
Panasonic should do something for that colours: it always give that "sandy beige" rendition that really put me off.
The Reds ar really weird
was just in the middle of a gerald video but i had to tune in
Dude, for the BRAW you need the Video Assist, not the Ninja Atomos.
For birds you dont need BRAW.
But that prores option on the S5iix is the one to shoot at.
I am actually suprised you went for that OG BMCC and not the Sigma FP. It probably cost and weight the same, but the Sigma kill it.
And it can shoot raw internally. Thats right!
The panny looks amazing allthough its a bit souless.
Would wait to see what Leica would bring instead of the SL2-S (a remake of the panny).
The return of the sacred Sony X3000! Looked fantastic! Panasonic I applaud you! Looks great too!
This remains the best camera content channel on UA-cam
Damn I wish you got a better shot of that Pink car in the background at 9:48! It would have been great ti show Panasonic saturation! If slightly more than candy floss!
🤣🤣🤣🤣amazing video! the comedy is great
You inspired me to get the Sony A7siii and I am happy with it.
What about Canon EOS M 14bit RAW with ML crop mood?
Have you tried the CineLikeD2 profile? That’s my favorite when I don’t want to mess with vlog on my S5.
8:06 he looks happy 😊
They should just upgrade the G85 autofocus
Man you're a great actor and I believe you know It. Best than lots of them in Hollywood 😎 So, could helpe me to pick a camera? I almost bought a gh6. I'd like something, necessarilly same price, but just around this price (it could be more). Thanks for this help and for the brilliant channel! Thanks, cause I didin't buy gh6. And what a relief! I You're an artist man!
