Portable Camera that cuts well with BMPCC4k?
Ive seen the Panasonic GH4 or 5 footage match up nicely. A Used the GH4 is reasonably priced. The Gh5 has in body stabilisation, the GH4 not. Both have focus peaking very handy, and auto focus, not that i'm keen on auto focus. GH4 shoots at 24p in 4k and 1080, with 60p available in 1080 only. The GH

Stupid Question about Equipment + Shoutout to PMI team
Hi mate I’m a tv camera op working in documentaries, If they’ve got decent budget the fx3 is probably what they are using but honestly that would be absolutely overkill for what you are intending to do. Get a cheaper Sony A7S or even an old Panasonic lumix GH5s which would be perfectly fine for just

S1ii EF adapter any examples?
Yeah I came from canon before the GH4 and have stayed with Lumix since the GH4 (GH5s and now S1ii). Always with adapted EF lenses! My experience with the S1ii has been great professionaly (video's for clients) aswell as personally (photo's). The new firmware that dropped recently improved the AF and

A lumix s5 owner and want to get a GH5 or GH5s. Want to know anyone have some footage that they shoot for reels. Also Its kinda crazy gh5 has a usb type C!
A GH5 with f/2.8 lens would weigh roughly the same as the S5 with a kitlens. The main advantage of the GH5 would be: More zoom range for the same weight. The leica 12-60 give you the FF equivalent of 24-120 for similar weight as the S5 20-60. (Though shooting in APS-C mode on the S5 effectively exte

When to stop renting & when to buy
I started off small with just a canon RP and a 35mm and wasn’t even recording audio at the time. I then eventually moved to the 2 GH5s and got 2 Tascam DR-10Ls for audio and an H4essential to get audio from the DJ. Needless to say i was not fully invested financially in any setup so i wouldn’t take

Seeking GH5 upgrade ideas for low-light concert productions
GH5s. No stabe if that's important. The GH6 is a beast of a camera. The major thing people complain about is the autofocus not being PDAF. But, compared to the GH5... it's amazing. People love the colors. There's also a streaking issue that every video I've ever seen the people admit they don't see

I want to buy Gh5 but im scared of the autofocus problem
When I first got into video cameras as a hobby I really bought into the assumption that autofocus was important. This is what led me to purchase an FX3. What I've realized is that in practice, the majority of what I shoot is talking head, youtube style video sand all three major lines (Canon, Lumix,

Opinions on the LUMIX GH3?
LOVE it! Bought one back in 2013 and it started my love affair with LUMIX when the rest of the industry was going crazy for the 7D and T3i. I still have it, and it still works. I don’t use it professionally anymore due to the single card slot and mini-HDMI. I have the GH5 and GH5s and they are both

Amateur trying to pick between GH7 or S5iix for outdoor camping style videos sometimes at night
I use the Sony a7iv for my videos, it’s a beast in low light and I’ve had it in severe storms, no problem. Another good option for you would be the Sony a6700, it’s a bit cheaper but still outstanding in low light. Get a good prime lens that opens up to f1.8 or more and you’ll bet set. Sigma makes a
