LUMIX S5IIX

I can only speak to full frame. If you don't need the ABSOLUTE best in autofocus, and want to avoid breaking the bank, the Panasonic S5IIX does absolutely everything well. One step up in price will give you a big step up in performance to the Panasonic S1II. Another step up in price will give you an

Two questions to make you think. What are you missing in not having the desired big 3 camera systems vs your s5IIx. Meaning what more will you gain? Are you sure it's not your skill vs the gear? I ask #2 because I don't know much about s5IIx capabilities so I looked up what is important to me as spo

I can share a few images. As per previous comments, a good portion of Leica SL Lenses are either rebranded Panasonic or Sigma lenses; that doesn't mean they're bad though. My particular lens in the Leica APO Vario-Elmarit 90-280, which is one of the first lenses released for the SL system roughly 10

Honestly it’s kind of a weird lineup of native lenses for primarily video use. If less noise at higher ISO’s is the most important thing I’d say go for FF. Personally I think the S5IIX is a great value for video. I wouldn’t say you have a huge investment tying you to M43 and you can certainly get de

Having used an s9 and S5iix for over a year and having switched now to a Nikon setup with ZR/Z8/ZF I can only say I am more happy with current gear BUT for your needs, an S9 it’s the best bang for the bucks you can have. Yes, crop on 4k60 it’s a pain in the arse but noting that will make you rip you

i learned on an AE-1... the whole retro thing makes very little sense to me i have an X100VI but i like it for its size and what it can do in that small and easy to use package...not the way it looks DP review compared the Zf to a few other cameras The Canon EOS R6 II is still the camera to beat in

Godox and the Panasonic L-mount bodies may not be a great choice, like it is for everybody else: https://www.reddit.com/r/Lumix/comments/1egjpzb/godox_and_s5iix_is_a_bad_pairing/ There's apparently a lag on firing, and issues with TTL accuracy, as well as banding issues with HSS. Godox might work if you'r

I'll tell you why I want to switch, maybe you can understand me then.I want 4K 48-60 FPS recording for video with good AF and IBIS that doesn't overheat and doesn't break the bank. The problem: the S5IIx has a crop, and even when I record in 1080, the good AF is gone (the S9 have it!?). The A7IV ove

So I started with the s5iix. The phase detect autofocus was perfect for my needs as I don’t do any professional sports. It locks on. Not as good as Sony but not much worse, and the ibis blows Sony out of the water. I also significantly prefer the skin tones coming out of Panasonic cameras, and for v

I shot with an A7iv a lot during college, my main work cam for years was an OG G9, and I've just picked up the S5iix. So not super across the S1R but I have some reference as to the two systems. What I can say is that the menu system/software/ergonomics are one of the biggest reasons I stuck with Lu
