Panasonic Lumix cameras are so underrated. Just got one and i don't regret it! Highly recommend
I just switched to the canon r6 mkiii but I use Panasonic s5iix’s at my job. I guess I’m an idiot because I assumed all camera manufacturers have good ibis now but the Canon ibis is fucking dog shit. Almost unusable for video. I really was spoiled by Panasonic.

Nikon Z6 iii vs Nikon ZR vs panasonic S1 ii for travel videos?
Regarding IBIS - Panasonic is on a completely different level. Nikon’s stabilization is nowhere near as good as Panasonic’s, not even close. There’s a simple physical reason: Panasonic bodies have a much larger IBIS chamber, which gives the sensor more space to move and correct motion. It’s not just

Why hasn't anyone made a locking micro-HDMI cable for cameras?
I understand your frustration. One of the reasons I LOVED my Panasonic AF100 was that they didn't skimp on the professional stuff. It had XLR inputs, it had locking HDMI, it had SDI video output through a BNC connection, it even had RCA jacks (the yellow one was how you output timecode to another de

The Lumix S9 finally has a compact prime lens - TTartisan just released their 40mm 2.0 L-mount version
I don't understand what Lumix was thinking with the release of the S9 without a small quality prime for the camera. If they had released S9 with a small quality 28mm or 40mm f/2.8 prime, sales would have went through the roof. The S9 was not a fit without that small prime to hang my hat on. Bloggers

Nikon Z6 iii vs Nikon ZR vs panasonic S1 ii for travel videos?
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

Panasonic S1IIE for 2000€ good deal for video and photo work?
I have yet to buy this camera, but from what I can tell, everyone is sleeping on it pretty hard. The narrative is that it’s an S5II with all the new features and upgrades of the S1RII/S1II, like false color, internal RAW, cripples stabilization, and the new body design. However it seems that’s not t

Two New LUTs | Bubblegum & Delaware
I'm so glad you like them! Comparing the A1 and S5IIX is like comparing apples to oranges, honestly. I no longer shoot with the A1 but when I did I used it specifically for aviation photography. The burst speed on the A1 is the best I've used for capturing high speed action. One thing that surprised

Seeking MFT lenses with "Full Frame Look," reliable AF, and minimal focus breathing
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

Lens suggestions for S1ii (after moving from Fujifilm), Video + Photo in Large Scale Live Events
I was a Fuji X user for over 10 years, I moved to the Lumix. I purchased the S5iiX it came with the S 85mm f/1.8. for (Thank you B&H) free I also purchased from eBay the S Pro 16-35mm used like new for $695.00. I really like street photography the most, so I took the S Pro 16-35mm out for a spin wit

What are your thoughts on the s5ii af (and more) ?
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
