My understanding, and it could be incorrect as Panasonic is so secretive about these details, is that the thermal sensor of the image sensor was too sensitive and proactively ended recording well before any concern to the sensor. Panasonic LUMIX had to experiment with determining what that correct l

The a7rV will be the better camera in my opinion. It’s one of Sonys absolute best. And in my opinion for editorial, your camera should be 100% there every time. I think the Sony is that, while Panasonics are extremely nice, they are playing catch up. And I also don’t feel like the big bodies of ever

It’s a tool. You’re using it as said tool. On that note, my old S5II was falling apart like this after a year (and 50k shots). Talk to Panasonic, send it in and they will fix it under warranty. Ignore the ignorant people here who barely use their camera as intended.

Just to be clear, I do not have an S5II and have never used either the S5II or the S5D, so I probably should not have commented.

My Lumix s5II screen was always a bit hanging downwards. Till someone ran over my tripod and the screen and mechanism needed to be repaired. The screen opening and closing feels more sturdy now. My shutter button needs a replace since I got the focus problem. Af doesn’t work 98% of the time anymore.

Ok so the comments so far don't seem to be familiar with this issue at all. It is very real within the S5ii and I had it on both of mine. I even got Panasonic to confirm that they were aware of the issue, sent it in for warranty repair, and that accomplished pretty much nothing. It was not an issue

Yup, bought an S5ii open box from Best Buy and then moved abroad, found out card 2 has a bent pin. That's also when I found out that Panasonic won't honor the warranty if you moved to another country. I have a dozen emails where they refuse to fix it under warranty but will happily charge me for the
