Lumix S5II

Yes, definitely. I've used other systems as well and always come back to using Lumix the most. I just love their ergonomics, aggressive pricing and menu system - I think the menu system is second best to Leica's. L mount lens selection is excellent now and is getting better every year, most 3rd part

Hey there! Full time business photographer videographer here. Looks like you’re hitting the limit of using a hybrid photo camera for long form video. The Nikon Z8 is an incredible camera, but some would say it isn’t built for hour plus continuous recording, especially in a theater environment. Readi

S5iiX and S1ii longtime user here! Been in this situation hunting lenses, many times, for10 yrs. Short answer if one-and-done: Sigma 20-200 Tried almost all Sigmas and Lumixes, bought every FF L mount focal length from primes to zooms, 14-200mm. M4/3 too. Can't go wrong with any starting out really.

I did because I'm ridiculous and wanted to treat myself. It's been so much more work than a beginner dslr to figure out and program a "one size fits most" mode, and only I can see the difference in the photos locally since they always get compressed online, even in dedicated cloud storage, but whate

Having owned the S1R and now the S1Rii, the original was a much nicer built camera, with great design touches, I much prefer it from a handling perspective. (I miss the top screen!!) But the S1R’s autofocus is pretty crap, if you’re doing static portraits and landscape work it’s fine but good luck d

High frame rates on the S5II which require an APS-C crop, selfie/vertical videos, Astro & landscape photography. Plenty of uses for a 16mm prime, especially a quality one with AF. Much more accessible than the sigma 14mm or 15mm Art lenses, wider than the lumix 18mm or Sigma 20mm primes.

As the one who converted from G9 myself, something like S5II will suit you just right and will improve autofocus because it now has PDAF instead of just DFD on G9. I did use S9 at first but really missed EVF, so took advantage of this Best Buy deal, that gets you S5II, 20-60 kit plus free 85mm f1.8

Fujifilm has more fun factor for sure. I really like the user experience. I traded an x-s20 for an S5II. I have also owned an X-H1 and X-T30 II. I do miss the smaller size and more affordable lenses, but I didn’t really care for the film simulations and if you mainly develop raw files, I will say th

I shoot wide and crop most of the time with my real estate clients. For any parts where they're talking on camera, I shoot in 6K Open Gate (Lumix S5iiX), which gives me plenty of options for cropping vertical or horizontal. For the b-roll, I shoot wide then crop. And honestly with how short the vert

The honest answer is…the z8 and z9 are better cameras for the wildlife purpose. Albeit they are very large. My S5ii and Sigma 150-600 came to around 2.5k..that’s less than one Nikon Z8. So I’d expect it to be the better camera. The sigma 150-600 is a nice lens, the autofocus is slow though. The zoom
