Andrew Reid predicts Panasonic is soft-quitting the market for professional photographers and videographers

I think Andrew went from healthy scepticism to bitter dommerism some time ago. He seems to think of himself as some sort of a scorned LUMIX fan. As for the substance of his blog piece - LPS has been phased out for years in Europe so no, it's not an unusual move. can you imagine Nikon ending NPS or C

Is it possible to go under $2400 during summer? (s1r2)

I get it. I am a shill with their video. The gh7 and g9ii are great. I'm a m43 Lumix shill. I got my S1r and S5 bc I was getting into photo (portrait) and thought the next PDAF cameras would be more digital, and people always say they notice a difference now that Lumix has gone PDAF. I do get good p

Should I trade in my MFT gear for an S1Rii for event photography/videography?

Don't!!!! I sold my S1R II on ebay, so I know what I am talking about: The S1R II has a horrible battery life. The ergonomics are bad, because the body is thicker than the previous LUMIX lineup. The camera overheats like crazy! You can not use CFExpress Typ B cards, they get way too hot, so you are

Sold all my Sony gear for LUMIX and couldn’t be happier

I also switched over to Sony due to lens selection – but I kept my Lumix for video and low light stuff. The Lumix S5 is a really great camera and it's round about €700 used in my country, but despite that, I switched to Sony with an used A7R3 because I wanted to crop more and the S1R is too heavy an

Which flash should I buy for a S5II?

Second everything you said. Godox is nigh unusable with Lumix cameras. Found PCB better, but there is still some minor lag. Best way was to use the sync port on the S1R with the trigger, gave the least lag. In the end, for anything involving strobes or tethering I just use my trusty Nikon D750, beca

Swap from the Lumix S9 to the X-H2?

From looking at a bunch of dynamic range sciency stuff apparently the X-H2 has better dynamic range than the S9 so I don't think I will miss the full frame. The S1R ii crossed my mind. however the price to what I get is just not there for me. and it would remain bulky where the X-H2 I could get the

Thoughts on selling G9 and “upgrading” to a S1?

S1 OG? Or S1ii/e? Second vote for the g9ii. I've mostly used the newer bodies and GH line. I know people like the G9... I also got one for a steal ($650 w Leica 12-60 new) after the g9ii. I couldn't get used to the g9. The g9ii is an incredible camera. I like it more than my full frame S1R / S5. I o

Swap from the Lumix S9 to the X-H2?

If I were to get a full frame sadly it would not be lumix. The value just isn't there like it used to be to me. I would get a A1 mk1 before an S1Rii or a A7R iv before a S5ii. In terms of low light I don't really shoot and if i do its on a tripod where any camera can perform well. I have noticed in

Can't decide: which one between Lumix S1/S1R, Nikon z6 ii/III or a new Sony?

I had the Lumix S1R. The thing that surprised me the most of about that camera was how quickly it chewed through batteries, and that it would heat up a bit while doing nothing (I'm assuming very inefficient components just generating heat and sucking up power). The S Pro lenses are great, however, i

Official Gear Purchasing and Troubleshooting Question Thread! Ask /r/photography anything you want to know! July 04, 2025

After a few weeks, I'm still torn between Sony and Panasonic. And now I even know, that I'll travel to Paris in a few weeks. Should I get a second Lumix S5, the S1R or should I rather go the Sony route (A7RIII, A7III, A7C) – up to €2K – used only – and I'll look in Germany, not in France I asked som
