LUMIX S5IIX

The S9 doesn't have any official weatherproofing, so if you anticipate harsh conditions out on the mountain that will defnitely be a consideration. While the build quality on the S9 is good, I wouldn't necessarily call it "rugged" by any stretch. If you're taking the camera out onto the mountain and

People just hate panasonic for no reason. Thats what I wrote. Plus a personal story how sony fools customers. Yeah the s5iix is a really robust camera.

I moved on from Fujifilm last year and primarily use Panasonic Lumix now (S5IIX and S1RII). Quick thoughts off the top of my head: The IBIS is so much better. No weird wide-angle wobbles and no jerky corrections during camera movements. I love the color science. Fujifilm has great colors too and thi

I'm trying to sell my S9 at the moment so I am maybe not the best to ask. It's a great camera, don't get me wrong, but I own the S5IIX and bought another non-X variant because while it's bigger, the ergonomics and build quality are much better.

I was a Fuji X user for over 10 years, I moved to the Lumix.

It's always great to hear another person's experiences. Speaking specifically of native lenses (since I don't dive much into third-party due to color rendering), I think you've highlighted the main issue with Panasonic/Lumix, which is consistency. Their lenses can be excellent, but their quality con

I was on a hiatus of 5+ years. Always owned Panasonic cameras as I just liked the look of the footage, the features, and the form factor. I got an S5iiX and it's been a fantastic camera. I'm not really sure that Canon is something I'd spend money on unless you were strictly a photographer. I don't t

Howdy!! I'm like you, blessed with good deals on used panasonic gear (S1/S5iix and S9) !!! If you are not rushed in time, I would say wait to have a good deal on the panasonic prime lenses. I got their 50 and 85mm on the cheap, so I paid a third party price for a native lens (especially if I compare

I love the images straight out of camera, and it’s operationally speedier than the next generation of cameras, especially the slow ass S5IIX. I love that it’s smaller than them too and personally can feel it. Way better battery life than the S1II generation, I’ve also never seen an overheat warning
