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

FF Firmware upgrades, no MFT in sight

I get the buying advertised specs point, but here’s mine: sensor size aside the features gap between the new L mount bodies and the gh7 is much larger than the gap between the gh7 and GH6 imo. When the gh5s was launched, people were calling it the mft version of s1h. Gh7 is not the mft version of s1

I need a camera for both photography and vlogging?

Extreme low budget: < €300 Lumix G80/G85 - a 4k hybrid camera with IBIS from about 2013. 16 megapixel Micro Four Thirds sensor. Lovely camera, but quite dated. Great to learn on. Lenses for Micro Four Thirds are cheap too. If you can find one with the 12-60 3.5-5.6 kit lens, you'll get a decent lens

Does the Panasonic GH5s continually slave timecode?

The GH5S is getting old at this point, I wonder if there are any newer Lumix models that you could pick up at a similar price with better timecode support?

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
