Proud owner of S5. Thanks for making such videos so that people will be aware about the other capable cameras available in the market, rather than just getting trapped with companies having good marketing.
I have had my S5 for a few weeks and it staggers me how underrated it is. Literally the only downside I can see is the autofocus, which makes no difference to me since I'm using adapted vintage primes to save more money anyway!
Lumix cameras in general are underrated imo. I rmb when I first saw the S5, it was on par, if not, surpasses video capabilities of most other sony/canon options. However, I ended up going fuji because I dont do cinematography that much
I actually sold my Canon R6 for the S5 with the Ninja V. I don´t know why i didn´t buy the S5 in the first place. The difference between CLog3 and VLog is huge! The S5 is so extremely underrated and it deserves more attention in the filmmaking market!
I loved the video, but are you feeling OK? Your voice Sounds wierd im this vid. Maybe I'm halucinating but in Case you've got yourself Something Like a cold, I would Just Like to say: Get Well ASAP!
@Big Cook but if you want all that you cant find them on the others that have great autofocus, so use a mediocre af and have all the other goodies mate ;)
@Big Cook hmm it surely has good af, but dci 4k, braw, prores, waveform, spotmeter, best log profile and last but not least great image quality with less than 1500.... i dont think so brother :) ...ohh and a usable in most cases af if there is light ...man s5 is a killer camera in this category if you care about other things than autofocus.... for some i know its number one priority but after trying them all....nah i ll keep on using pana
@Big Cook sure but he's talkin about 'cinema' cameras ....so control is more important i guess, if you are a youtuber for example af is umber one.... if you do commercial you may need af in some occasions in my experience
Finally pulled the trigger on this camera and so happy I did. After using cinema cameras for projects in the past I can honestly say it truly blurs the line between a mirrorless and cinema camera.
I almost pulled the trigger on buy this camera. But after looking at aftermarket lens selection and prices for them… my wallet was whispering to stay with Sony apsc. So now I’m waiting for new a6000 series (a6700 or a7000)
Well actually you could buy this Lumix s5 in a kit with a kitlens and a prime and it is pretty cheap! I’ve recently bought the s5 + 20-60kit + lumix s 50mm f1.8 for about 2200 Eur, Panasonic has a cashback event going on - 400 Euro off the purchase so in total it costs only 1800 Eur. For that price I couldn’t find a better camera with such an amazing video quality and features Sure the next Lens (probly sigma 28-70 2.8 or panasonic 85mm 1.8) is gonna hurt the wallet a bit, but what else would you expect from a full frame system - you get what you pay for😁
Well damn, I just bought the FX30.... just kidding. I mean, I did buy it, but I considered the S5 too. I decided on the FX30 for my needs, but the price value of the S5 is so good, I'm literally considering it as a second camera for social content (Open Gate all the way).
I got the S5 recently on Amazon U.K. brand new with the 20-60mm kit lens and the lumix 50mm f1.8 prime lens for £1,300!!!!. In my opinion this camera sh1ts all over the A7IV and I love Sony, but my god if it sh1ts on the Sony it murders the canon R5!. To have the equivalent setup on the Sony here in the U.K. would have cost me nearly £5,000 and the R5 just under £8,000!. All for what bit better auto focus on the Sony!. The autofocus on the R5 is sh1t just watch potato jets videos on it!. I like a little bit of random out of focus it looks more authentic as when is everything 100% in focus 100% of the time in real life!?!. Yea for the money there is absolutely nothing that competes with the S5 at the price I got it for with the included lenses!.
Completely agree. I got the s5 for black Friday with the kit lens and 85mm f1.8 for 2500 aud. I wanted the a7iv but I just couldn't justify spending over 1000 more.
@@aylenstudios yea same ideally I wanted the A7IV because I wanted thr shutter curtain (silly reason probably) and because I have a RX100Va and I’ve always bought Sony, TVs etc. but yea no way here in the U.K. the A7IV is £2400 body only so once you add one decent lens your easily at £3400 that’s without memory cards or nd filters, microphone etc. I just though sod that and the sony doesn’t have waveform, luminance spot meter, anamorphic, the Live Photo option which is super on the S5,it doesn’t have time code so on and so on. As for the canon they can just sod off in my opinion their cameras are crap, living off the canon name!. You’d have to be bonkers to spend upwards of 7x and over on a canon camera that’s less versatile and can’t be used in hot weather lol!.
I agree with everything you've highlighted for Cinema Quality capture. Especially for professionals like yourself who do so much work in post to deliver an emersive viewing experience, I think for myself I might have some additional criteria that poses questions about the run and gun performance like, Auto Focus, or focus peeking for pulling manually, Frame rates, sound recording, maybe even some performance aspects for shooting sports and wild life, I will concede that when Image quality is the thing that matters most, many of these things are going to take a back seat. I think most photographers would agree that it would be zero imposition to set up a tripod and go through all the painstaking work of composing at the correct time of day to get a very specific landscape image, understanding that expecting a quick hand held snapshot just isn't always realistic, and so I do respect that some of this image quality in video does come with the burden of file size and purhaps some other sacrifices in a camera under 2K, I'm just curious what you get for this budget, and maybe what your kit might cost, set up the way we see it in the video, I've seen the S5 here ( in Canada ) for around $1800 body only, which I happen to think sounds increadibly budget friendly considering what many used cameras cost still today with abysmal video specs. I often think at some point a dedicated video camera might even start to make sense, is there a video camera you like that might offer the image/File quality you are looking for with purhaps better workflow and performance? Ok I just read this camera has anamorphic recording settings? I sm trslly curious about this. I know 4x3 is a thing right now that many who've been shooting vertically are returning to but I have to say that wide screen is where it's at for me when it comes to cinema.
Lumix S5 = 1500, Atomos Ninja V = 500. That's 2000 without lens, accessories and tax. I get...I really do, but that's far far away from the " Under $1500" thumbnail. Reality price is approximately $3500 stretching it...still a great price for "cinema-like syle" features.
? This was the most confusing video.... was this a lumex ad? False Color? Xml inputs? Pre amps? Built in ND's? Pocket 6k pro, FX30, R7c (coming) pocket4k..... this video just seems so branded and its not even a "cinema" Camara. Hey I shoot on a DSLR but still the people watching your content know a thing or two about the trends and what's out there..... this video just seems off. Maybe re title it like "why I love the lumex xx" or something. Love you man but..... this feels like a sales ad. I'm sure the lumex fan boys will appreciate it but there was zero actual value here. All I got from thus was lumex, lumex, lumex, just being honest brother.
I think the title is very misleading, sure the S5 alone is a great camera not get me wrong ( comming from a Sony user ) but once you add the Ninja V, SSD, and batteries the price point is closer to 2500 than 1500. Sure is a great value, but everything has to be said. Also the lens selection it’s the worst system so far
Wow! Awesome video, Lots of info in a short amount of time. I've been a professional photographer for 15+yr but never really got into video.. lately every client I have seems to expect video as part of the services and I've been scrambling to catch up on a huge gap in camera knowledge for film. This is exactly what I've been looking for! Thanks from a fellow Torontonian 🇨🇦
But nobody taking about the horrendous hdmi lag with external monitors. Its over 200ms. Its very noticeable and much harder to do follow focus with, which is a must as the af is dire.
Hi Chris ! How do you do with IBIS with wide angle lens ? I am using the S1 with Zeiss 20mm and I not so happy with the stabilization, there is a lot of wobbling, should I use a gimbal with it ? Thanks!
I'm not gonna lie, I'm torn... haha A year ago I purchased the Sony a6400 to use as a dual-use (Photo & Video) it has worked GREAT for me and I am super happy with it. But, now knowing that I could purchase a budget cinema camera for a few hundred dollars more than I purchased my a6400 for is a tiny bit upsetting. Am I alone? LMAO
If you're super happy with the a6400 then don't worry, it's unlikely you'll need the extra features the panasonic will give you unless you work professionally.
I use the a6400 got it on release date. The only downfalls I’ve noticed is no IBIS and short battery time. That little camera boosted my career so I won’t knock it and the image for photography is comparable to the a74 from face value unless you’re really pixel peeping
You shouldn't. S5 is just a unique product that is like the a7iii of 2018, priced way too cheap for what it does, but that's because most people can't live without autofocus.
Best bang for the bucks for sure!!! Only Panasonic don’t hold back on their gears. Anywho, how much did Panasonic back up the “money truck” to pay you? J/K
I notice how you movie your hands incessantly and dynanically, because you're an ncessantly dynamic guy. At the same time I dynamically move the cursor away from the subscribe button, having not clicked it, whereafter I dynamically swoosh the cursor to the dislke button and instantly and dynamically click the mouse. Now I'm going to take a walk and wave my hands dynamically at people and hope no-one will punch me although it would be richly deserved.
Love the video, but the s5 isn’t a cinema camera. It’s a great camera that can produce high quality results “cinematic” but it isn’t a cinema camera and that’s a good thing. We need to stop glorifying the term.
I look at things like battery life, battery costs, lens availability, and lens costs. Nothing is worse than realising how the legit batteries are way too expensive, so you get the off-brand ones, and they only last 10 minutes.
Battery life is good. Besides, you can run the camera on a cheap power bank through the USB port if you need to. Lens availability is good. How many lenses do you really need anyway?
@HGQjazz i only really need 3 main lenses, but when i get them, i like to have a variety of choices, and if i need to hire others in the future i would check to see what the hiring cost of compatible lenses is.
@@sbalget There are Cannon EF to L mount , and Arri PL to L mount adapters for under $300. I chose to get some basic EF glass for my Lumix S Series cameras (14-24, 24-70, 70-200 F/2.8), and I can use them with adapaters on Sony alpha series or Canon R series cameras.
I’m glad the s5 is getting some good press from a legit UA-camr and creator. Image quality is everything and honestly .. I think it looks better than anything else out there under 5 grand probably higher .unless you need 4k 120 or spend all your time in front of the lens it’s a no brainier .. absolute weapon!
Nope. Bmpcc6k/g2/pro is leagues ahead in image quality. Its not then close. I don't own either of them but I've worked with Blackmagic footage and if you think vlog can be pushed then you obviously haven't used braw
@@Matt-zw6eo what do you mean “nope” bro. 😂 I started the sentence with “I think “ meaning it’s my opinion. Can’t just ‘nope’me haha. I’ve got an s5 and every shoot every week it impresses me more. Bmpc6k is also dope. But for me… s5.
you can record externally through a monitor. meaning that with certain monitors, you can attach an ssd to the monitor and then whatever you're recording will be stored to that rather than the camera :) if anyone would like to add onto this with more specific details, please feel free!
@@jessecumberledge4530 i don’t think there is anything you cant get out of the s5, I mean, you can boost it with either bm assist or atomos to get prores, but the best you can do for a gh is to use some speedbooster to get the ff look, and let’s be honest, ff or at least s35 is a must
If you are looking for how to grade V-log don’t look at this guy because honestly his grading and process is pretty bad which causes him to not get the most out of the camera. Look up ‘Ed Prosser’
Always makes me wonder why other creators ignore this brand, are they getting paid or just personal preference? 😂 Great breakdown and video Chris, I really appreciated your perspective.
They all get paid. I’m sure Chris got paid to come over from Sony to Panasonic. In his editor video, they also used Sony’s so who knows what. Pick one YOU like and create
@@martzallmedia I mean for this specific video he wouldn't have gotten paid. There are strong laws and regulations that insist media discloses when it is sponsored.

@@joppe.v I think it’s a good camera. But there is a reason you don’t see any lumix on pro set. Sony, canon and Blackmagic are better option in my point of view. And From what I see on every shooting , most of the people think the same.
@@averypless hey , my personal équipement is a Sony fx3 and a Blackmagic 6k. I rent for bigger configuration depending the project. I still have my good old gh2, Panasonic change the game back in the day. But now, i can’t see anyone using a lumix.

@@jessecumberledge4530 i don’t think there is anything you cant get out of the s5, I mean, you can boost it with either bm assist or atomos to get prores, but the best you can do for a gh is to use some speedbooster to get the ff look, and let’s be honest, ff or at least s35 is a must
@imidaufilme I have and use both. Love em both for different reasons. And you would be surprised what you can do with a m43 sensor.
@@imidaufilme had ff and m43, love the prices of m43. Ninja v gets pricey with it costing $1000 for a recording setup.
Chris the 🐐
Do you have a video on how to color grade V-Log? I love my S5!
If you are looking for how to grade V-log don’t look at this guy because honestly his grading and process is pretty bad which causes him to not get the most out of the camera. Look up ‘Ed Prosser’
AF ? lol
Always makes me wonder why other creators ignore this brand, are they getting paid or just personal preference? 😂 Great breakdown and video Chris, I really appreciated your perspective.
More and more people rely on AF these days sadly
Yeah, coming from the Gh5 not having good auto focus is a big detriment
They all get paid. I’m sure Chris got paid to come over from Sony to Panasonic. In his editor video, they also used Sony’s so who knows what. Pick one YOU like and create
@@martzallmedia I mean for this specific video he wouldn't have gotten paid. There are strong laws and regulations that insist media discloses when it is sponsored.
@@martzallmedia he only switched to the S5 for video content , photography wise he's still also using his Sony
Yeah best under 1500, the Lumix S5 would cost me 2000$ and another 3000$ for the setup in the video. Fqin clickbait bullshit
I’m currently a Sony a7iii user, but I have always had a special place in my heart for Panasonic… Question: do you find it difficult to match up the footage from your Sony to the Panasonic s5?
I Hope Panasonic pay you well and it’s worth it for your buisness. Because obviously nobody care about lumix camera anymore.
people would care about lumix, but sony and canon are just overshadowing other brands, probably because every youtuber has either a sony or a canon
Just curious, what's your set up looking like these days?
@@joppe.v I think it’s a good camera. But there is a reason you don’t see any lumix on pro set. Sony, canon and Blackmagic are better option in my point of view. And From what I see on every shooting , most of the people think the same.
@@averypless hey , my personal équipement is a Sony fx3 and a Blackmagic 6k. I rent for bigger configuration depending the project. I still have my good old gh2, Panasonic change the game back in the day. But now, i can’t see anyone using a lumix.
It's actually up to par with sony and canon, people just dont realize because they don'y give it a chance :)
