I switched from the fx30 to the s5iix and honestly can say you can't go wrong with either.. FX30 was easier to rig up but the s5iix allowed me to take on some additional photography work on the side! Open gate and the real time lut feature has been really helpful as well.
in a same situation, how is lowlight grain situation with s5ii with fx30, and in general image quality comparison
It definitely seems to be performing better in low light than my fx30. Image quality is similar but enjoying the FF benefits across the board. I like the UI better too.
I was the opposite I went from the S5ii to the fx30. Much prefer the fx30 overall. The 4k60 no crop won me over.
Can you burn the lut to the video?
Yeah I'm pretty happy with LUMIX right now
just bought the S5ii. did update the firmware. all in all an immaculate beast of a machine. in love.
Zach Mayfield, Subscribed because your videos always make me smile!
Switched from an R6 to S5II on a whim. Fell in love lol. A little quirky at first, but it is an amazing camera. And the OTA updates make me feel cared about as a consumer.
I'm a Sony fan boy and I just bought the S5iiX. It had a little learning curve. But wow! It's an amazing camera for video. The auto focus is near perfect. Great video!
I’ve had the fx30 , and fx3 and fuji xh2s and believe me , the lumix s5iix rules them all ! After multiple projects and matching the s5iix to the alexa mini 😃. The Lumix s5iix is the best purchase out of all these choices ‼️
Idk about that... The xh2s is the closest thing to an alexa so far. From sensor size to log curve, 14 bit readout and shutter speed. How does an S5IIx rules it?
@@smartideas-pedro1690 the answer is color science . Try matching them to an alexa mini and you will see for yourself . The xh2s is way too oversharpened.
@@smartideas-pedro1690 Have you shot one before? It's the same sensor as the Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K (NOT pocket)
@@smartideas-pedro1690Also, if you want to get really technical... The GH6 is the closest hybrid camera you can get right now to an Alexa. It has a Dual Gain Sensor just like the Alexa... That is, it records video at 2 ISOs (1 high and 1 low) and then combines them into 1 video output.
@@smartideas-pedro1690on paper it looks good, amazing really.
It trust fattysorprano’s opinion though because we’ll look at his work it’s amazing regardless of whatever camera he uses.
Great video! Love my s5iix
I had an FX30 for a short bit and I really enjoyed how easy it was to create with, however, I found myself needing something a little more hybrid and picked up the S5 ii at launch and really loved it. Naturally, I own neither now and have an X-H2S
loved the video! I wish it was a bit longer though!
Zach! Love your videos and perspective. Would love to see your thoughts on the Nikon Zf for film making. I recently switched to ZF because it offered a close alternative to the a7siii for about the price of an fx30. I mostly shoot photos but I've been loving the 10 bit and it feels like a big step in video from my former a7iii and a7riv. Cheers!
LUMIX BS1H and S5IIx - my tools of choice.
Love your style and content, friend! Subbed! 🎉
Also, the dad life, creator balance resonated with me 💯
Great Series! Would still love to see older cameras to put through there paces. 5d series, cinema eos series, eva1 etc.
No way you and Ryan Kao dropped a video on the same day 😍 we’re off to a great start ladies and gents.
Great video, Zach! I’m an FX30 shooter, but I’m definitely considering getting a S5iiX as my second cam, just to open up my versatility as a shooter.
Hey Zach! So glad you got to retest the s5iix! Which would you recommend for a 3-camera podcast? I'm more familiar with Sony, but like the idea of full-frame, would love your thoughts! Pricing comes out about the same with bodies and lenses.
Thx for video. And what about moire issue?
Zach the great guy with good videos! cheers!
What was the name of that power bank you plugged the mac into inside the car
So between Sony and This one, which one you prefer?
Watching Finzar with your Kid is just amazing 👏
LUMIX all the way baby! I'm still rockin my GH5 & GH5II with a fine collection of Pro lenses and other gear to go with... Fun Fun Fun.
This camera is amazing but the biggest flaw is hdmi lag that all Panasonic cameras have when hooked up to a external monitor. Makes using manual focus harder.
I have heard of this issue. Personally I have never had it. I use the Atomos NV. I bought an 8k cable and never had any issues with it. I use the S5ii and before that the GH5. Didn't use the standard 4k hdmi cables just 8k.
Thumbnail is on point bro
My preference on the LUMIX cameras for video are the ones with a good OLPF. The S1H is still best here, although Kolari Vision have one for the S5IIX also.
I find myself grabbing my s52x instead of my S1H, such an easy, yet professional camera
specially after the last update, this camera is a beast!
Have to try the S9, despite all the fallout, have been impressed with the sooc jpegs and ease of creating and adding film simulations. Lots of cinematic colour and grain
i just dont like what sony did to the A7S3 it can easily be an fx3 with a viewfinder, but they seem to of abandoned it for the fx cameras. no updates. im still getting updates for the g9 mk 1. can i get a link to Connor's channel would love to see his vid on the cato lens
I’m balls deep in the Sony ecosystem. But I love that that the S5IIx exists
I have an original S5 and tested the G9ii (which has the same focussing capacity as the s5ii). My problem as a stills photographer is that that should be one camera, a FF that works like the G9ii. Because between them they'd be incredible.
I just like your style. You could talk about different soups and I’d watch
hey Are those some Jim Green boots he is sporting???? How cool is that? @10:39
Nice vibes from this video.
That camera is very special. I think its 'the perfect camera in it's class.
Been using the s5iix for a couple of months now. Got it on a bundle with the s-pro 24-70mm. The biggest downside so far are limited lens selection (especially where i live where every single sony lens known to man is available to rent but good luck finding any L mounts). I love the ibis, it is one of the biggest thing that caught my eye. This camera really rips when it comes to stab. As a run and gun filmmaker that mostly focuses on event (music concerts) recaps, the ibis is definitely a big help. Since my office still has their a7s3, switching back and forth. I can safely say that if you want total reliability and convenience go with the sony. But if you are open to some catch, (even after the update sometimes in the middle of shoot it just lost focus to the nearest point making it all a total blur, but thankfully my lens has a clutch that you just pull to manual focus). The 6k open gate, the shutter angle settings, v log (preference) Panasonic is bringing the heat. Both are more than great for anyone looking to pickup a new camera, but it all boils down to reliability and convenient lens choice or superior stabilization and better colors.
Look into leica(expensive) and sigma for L-mount
What's up with the vignetteing and wobble from that "sick" anamorphic lens? Looked kind of awful to me...
Hey first of all, what a cute kid good job😄👍 I experienced freezing on the a7iv and fx30 multiple times. Like you in your streetphotography video with the a7iv. With the fx30 especially with vintage lenses and an adapter (mf). Do you have the same problem? Thx for the entertainment🍿
I switched over to the S5iiX because it was the best camera at that price point. Nothing came close bang for buck and more expensive cameras don't even guarantee you'll have the features that Lumix S5iiX has
on site where they filmed percy jacson(the movie).. nice
once your videos out, i will watch them. it is not about the camera.. it is more about your contents and the discussion you want to share with us. I don't care about camera, it is your smile and your contents that makes me happy and relief me of my work stress. keep it coming man. Owh i still love GH5.. but now i stick to ZVE1.. it is small..
link to your friend yt?
Great video dude. I really like my S5IIx. Done some walking and talking shots etc since the update and autofocus was pretty flawless for that.
Also if the deer have a menacing twinkle in their eye, run fast and cover your ass.
I HEARD HIM SAY CANON R1 !!! that little champ..! better give canon a chance :P
We just need to get the box that they alreaddy made.. but with the new S52X sensor and processor but as a cinema box like the BGH1
care and grace
You’re doing great at being a dad man.
honestly, I need a hug before I start eating too
4:10 I love when u read the comments 😆☺️☺️
I really think the s5iiX vs A7s3 is a more fair comparison
Someone go turn off the Halation in Zach's computer please cuz what in the bloom is that Zach 😂
LUMIX S5II X 💓👌
Blazar REMUS!!!
Camera gear comment sections can be wild!
Lumix OP
4:03 yes
Given the Blackmagic 6k Full Frame is currently $1575, I say lay into it for a future dad video.
Well, well, well, look who is back after all that FX30 talk, Now Lumix doesn't seem so bad, huh :))))
🙌🏼
i like your videos.
Zach Efron to Mayfield! cool! you lookalike Chris Hau. hahahaha hi new asian subscriber. Sony fanboy haha!
Just love your wife and baby. I don’t give a shit about anything else you do, as long as you’re having fun!
Levi, very biblical name. I love it. God bless you and your family.
I’m home safe x
Why are your dogs been in a cage at night?
Hey Zach , very good video . I can do better editing in your videos which can help you to get more engagement in your videos . Pls lmk what do you think ?
Different cameras different tools, no need to compete anything (in life in general)
Levi for AOT??????
You should switch to Kodak
AND while the S5II may work for some :) HERE my beef with the Panasonic S system as a filmer and photographer. So while the S series may work for you :) For me it has one >>MORTAL FLAWMORTAL FLAW
half of the shots are not in focus.
The overhyped S5 ii is the worst
affiliate farmhouse for brands lol
🙃
turn down the halation bro lmao
if you want REAL cinema results… just buy an Arri
Can you adopt me?
"Doesn't have reliable autofocus" comment definitely sounds like someone that doesn't know how to use manual focus and wants the camera to do all the work
S5iix image quality and colors are ass S5 mark 1 was much better
100% agree. S5 II is trash
Sony systems are a strategic decisions, not which camera is better today than x or y. Choosing Panasonic is a bad strategic decision. Sony make most of the worlds sensors and have computer tech from their games consoles. Panasonic waited almost 10 years before admitting their contrast detect autofocus for video was crap. They are a million miles behind Sony. Sony start with point and shoot and go up to Cinema production cameras. If you only have one body and one lens buy whatever you like.
Well, Panasonics offering starts at point and shoot and go up to cinema cameras like the VariCam 35 for example so no difference there, haha. As someone who have used both cameras talked about in this video extensively i can say that the AF is not quite on par but it's easily in the same ballpark and absolutely not "million miles behind Sony". You must not have used these cameras side by side in a professional setting if that's your conclusion. And the AF on the S5II/X is more than good enough for youtube, i would argue it's better than Nikon and pretty much at the same level as Canon now if not better in some situations. For commercial work i would never use AF (well, never is not quite true) as we basically always use glass meant for video and not photography/hybrid use so real cinema lenses for many reasons. As the IQ on Lumix cameras are undeniably a bit better if you compare cameras in the same price range or cameras that use the exact same Sony sensor like the A7III and the S5 (entire S-series range uses that sensor) i would still go for Lumix which i do most of the time even if the AF is a hair better on Sony and especially as AF is almost never needed in a professional setting. Doesn't mean i don't shoot on Sony though, i've used the FX6 and the FX3 as well as the A7SIII on several shoots and they're great cameras.
The S5II/X uses a Sony sensor so the fact that Sony can't make the same exact sensors preform as well in the same price range is unfortunate, they obviously aim for different things. Lumix has way more professional tools like waveforms, vector scopes, shutter angle etc while Sony focuses more on ease of use and to appeal to the masses and get as many cameras in as many hands as possible. They're basically way more vloggy than Lumix which is fine ofc, it's their niche and they got that on lock as it used to be Canon that was king of youtube but now it's Sony and that sells cameras which ofc is the ultimate goal of a camera company. Lumix has unfortunately started to go this route as well with the S5II/X and taken a page out of Sony's handbook and crippled these cameras somewhat with aggressive noise reduction and a lot of sharpening in non RAW video for exactly the same reasons. People that don't professionally work with video on a day to day basis don't notice that but people that do will and have notice this (it's all over the forums but ofc not in reviews for obvious reasons, haha) which is pretty common. Sony, Fuji, Canon and now also Lumix all do this on the lower end cameras unfortunately. Lumix didn't used to this though, for example the original S5 which also sports the same Sony sensor (or a variant of the same sensor) as the S5II/X doesn't have these NR/sharpening issues and the S5II/X didn't have those issues in the pre production firmwares. This unfortunate development only happened after release to get as many cameras in as many hands as possible (most likely) like most other brands as selling cameras is the most important thing. The best possible IQ is reserved for the flagships that aren't meant to be sold to the masses like the S1H, FX3, R3 and Z9 for example.
Sorry for the wall of text but i felt that this needed a bit more nuance as nothing is as easy as Sony good Lumix bad or Lumix good Sony bad, haha. Basically they're doing pretty much the same things now and the difference between them except for like monitoring tools and shutter angle which i don't understand why Sony refuses to implement means they're pretty damn close in performance. Sony isn't miles ahead of other brands when it comes to AF anymore and Lumix doesn't solely focus on the best possible IQ anymore. For youtube nowadays it's pretty much a toss up, it more comes down to what you personally like. Cheers
@LiamMarskog sony venice burano fx6 fx3 etc etc and there is the reason red no longer exist as separate company and was bought for peanuts by nikon. As I said, this is a strategic decision. If you bet on Sony 10 years ago, you won. Panasonic are like a 100 metre runner, late for the final, and still thinking they have a chance. The vast numbers of third-party party lenses are a clue. Third parties dont make a new lens for a small platform. Virtually every day, Sony gets more and more lens options from standard to Anamorphic. If you think near perfect autofocus isn't important to professionals, maybe you should tell Philip bloom. Pansonic didn't have a single camera in the top Japanese camera retailer's best-selling 20 list over the last 12 months. There is lots to like about the current Pansonic cameras, just no faith in them even catching up. Sony just made a laughing stock of the "in development " Canon R1 with the actually available Sony A9 iii. It's global shutter for sports and wildlife is game changing and when a Panasonic finally installed phase detect Sony added AI and as someone who owns the A7RV , ZVE1 and A6700 just because of that AI autofocus I think Sony know what people want. Only my opinion.
@@ourtvchannel Wasn't really coming here to argue, just wanted to give this some nuance as it was sorely lacking that but i guess i can at least answer you.
No, RED wasn't bought out by Nikon because of the Burano or any of the other cameras you mentioned. They got bought out by Nikon over the lawsuit they launched years before the Burano over internal compressed RAW patent that RED owns. Great patent for Nikon to own so that whole thing happened over a legal battle and that has absolutely nothing to do with Sony. The rumor is (this is a rumor) that RED really wanted to be bought out as well, and it wasn't because their business was going badly and def not because of Sony. RED's corner of the market isn't touched by Sony or anyone for that matter, what RED has a choke hold on is giant budget nature docs like BBC's Blue Planet for example. As someone that knows a few people that make these shows they are RED all the way through, would absolutely not chose a any Sony camera over what RED has to offer when it comes to that specific thing. The Burano that was just released isn't really for that and like i said this whole legal battle thing started WAY before the Burano anyway and the FX6/FX3 aren't competing in the same sport as RED cameras except for maybe the RED Komodo but it's ofc a much better and much more expensive camera that's not really meant for the same things. People that need AF won't get the RED Komodo and people needing the color fidelity you get with the Komodo won't be getting a FX6 or a hybrid mirrorless body like the FX3. Different tools for different jobs.
Yeah, i think you should read my comment again.. Sony knowing what the masses want and not focusing on sheer IQ with their lower end cameras (even high end at times like the A9III but that's a given because of the sensor) is what my entire comment was about, haha.
Have a great day man!
@LiamMarskog wrong, yes they had a legal battle and great for nikon they got a good patent but if you saw the usa rentals for red cameras you'd know people were switching to Sony. If professionals didn't want to rent Red then the writing was on the wall.
@@ourtvchannel haha, alright, let’s say so :)

8:18 the used camera buyer in me thought Connor was wearing an MPB shirt... but it's Campbell 🥫😂
