Panasonic S5 II vs Panasonic G9 II - Full Frame vs M43 in 2023 - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mNeIfdGBud2XpH0.htmlsi=PiFGM9dj1uSd5Zkg

S5ii series is exactly what panasonic needed to release. They are now on-par with most competitor features, ahead in a few, and behind in a few. I'm looking forward to new cameras they develop after these.

Bought S5II few weeks ago. So I’m happy with it. It’s my first FF mirrorless and price deals were main reason to buy it. I use it regularly with my Xt4. Love Fuji for way it handles with f2 lenses. For low light S5II obviously wins.

Another great video, thanks! I keep thinking that when I replace my G9 and GX9, I’ll probably get the S5 II. Your videos continue to help me move in that direction.

Great video. You are right that this camera puts Panasonic back into the game. Let’s hope the cameras has sold well. Having the right spec at the right time is important. The problem for Panasonic is that they can gain marketshare by getting switchers into their system.

Congratulations on the excellent work friend!!! Please tell me, which camera did you use to record the video (Shooting both cameras at the beginning) And what setting is used for this video on KZfaq (Bitrate and Format) Please answer!

Great video as always! Thanks a lot!

Great video, I am on the verge of getting one of them. I’m leaning towards the non X version. Thank you. I noticed Málaga on few shots. Do you live here?

I was surprised this didn't pop up in my search when I was looking at S5iiX videos. Love how you break down cameras in your videos. I'm happy that Panasonic finally got it together with the autofocus. I kept my GH5 even though I got an a7s iii because it was such a beast. I would love to see Phase detect auto focus in the GH series. I'm not too keen on the crop in 4k60 and no 4k 120p in 2023 but we'll see what they do next.

Nice. thank you I would love to see a S5 ii R together with the G9ii a perfect RunNGun hybrid setup for fast delivery for the more "serious stuff" i'm eagerly awaiting the FF EVAii and the next gen of box cameras (wich i would prefer over a S1Hii)

Thank You for this great video. It is an ideal camera. Best regards, Kai the bee filmer,.

Great long term review. Only major hole in the L mount seems to be fast telephoto lenses and f1.2 primes. Would love to see a 85mm f1.2 and the standard 400mm and 600mm primes and maybe even a 100-300 f2.8. About photo video switch, they do have a software photo video switch called "creative video combined set". Weird approach, not a real substitute for a physical switch, but it is there.

Is S5ii good for wild life / sports photography? or Canon R7 is better for that?

Great video, as always my friend. I'm using the S5II since March, I think. As a long time Lumix user who switched to Canon because of the AF, I am VERY happy to switch back. This camera fits my content a LOT. One question: have you ever tried the Sigma 150-600 sports on this cameras? I'm thinking about getting one for wildlife vídeo and stills. Do you have any opinions about AF and IBIS? Right now I'm using the a6700 + Sigma 100-400 for this, but I'm very inclined to build a full Lumix setup. Cheers mate✌🏻🙂

Is there overheating with the 5.9k external recording? Still getting this camera. just wanting to plan a bit

Excellent review. I was going to buy a Sony A7c ll as a smaller full frame compliment to my Lumix G9 but other than the size the S5 ll seems to be as good or better?

Hello, I am considering purchasing the S5 II, but after seeing several testers of this device, I have some doubts. Can you tell me in the 30 fps burst mode, when you press the shutter button there is always this moment of slowdown when the burst starts? Still in burst mode, to overcome this problem is there a pre-trigger mode (like on the G9 II)

I used both the S5II and A74. I sold the sony. Sony pros: High resolution photo and some video sensor zoom features extending the range of the lens in situations where swapping lenses is not an option. Photo/video switch, autofocus (my usecases) more reliable, button lay-out, lens options, start-up time. Panasonic pros: IBIS, Open Gate and recording formats, video features, firmware updates, better grip, viewfinder, no overheating.

s5iix best for photography ?

Apple prores makes the video better colour or better sharpness ?

If I switch to full frame these may be the way to go

Both these camera's are on my list and also I am looking forward to seeing what Panasonic does with the Panasonic S1H Mark 2, Panasonic S1 Mark 2 and Panasonic SR Mark 2

Great video, I have a comment and a question. My comment its about ergonomics. For me the front dial in Nikon, Sony and Fuji it's an ergonomics problem. My index finger rubs with my mid finger and I need to reposition my grip everytime. So it prevents to handle the camera in a firmly and relaxed way. Canon and Panasonic solved this, Canon put the index finger dial behind the shutter and Panasonic around the shutter (S5 line) or on a clearly different step over the rest of the grip (S1 line). Now my question. What happens if you use an APSC Sigma lens on the S5II? Can you use it in full frame mode? That way you could crop the way you want.

Panasonic has a few new cameras that have been registered and not announced yet. I’m pretty confident a high res cam will be released this year.

What are the single AF issues with Sigma lenses? Have you tested the IBIS plus OÍS with Sigma lenses in video? I heard it does not work.

Some people have said the image quality on the original S5 is slightly better than the II and X. Is that correct? Not sure if for stills and for video. Might have something to do with the new AF system.

did you use an external monitor? These cameras do not have a very comfortable HDMI output delay. Richard Wong even made a separate video about it. It would be interesting to know if this has changed with the firmware. or you haven't used it and can't advise?

1.5 hour ceremony, dual card recording DCI4K 24P in 32 degree celsius and direct sunlight. No problems reported!

Great video. Thank you. I'm still using the original s5, and I feel like it just gets better every day. :-) But recently I ran into a problem because it only shoots 23.976 fps, and I needed a DCP for a film I just shot, and that's a problem. So I'm considering upgrading just to get straight 24 fps. I'm actually thinking of upgrading to the s1h, because I would love to have an olpf. I've only seen moire show up once in the 2 years that I've been using this camera, but I would love to have that filter. I even thought of getting a gh5s, because it shoots 24 and has an olpf, but I have anamorphic lenses for my full frame camera, I have a bunch of vintage lenses, I would have to get new adapters, which is not that big of a deal, but I just don't feel like moving to micro 4/3 after using full frame for so long. As much as I considered upgrading to the S5ii, or the iix, I think the s1h will solve my problems. (I don't really use autofocus at all) Then again, I could just keep my S5 and make a "workaround" dcp, which I'm told can be done. I just don't like the idea of a workaround for a theatrical showing of a film. Trying to make the audio work doesn't sound like a great idea to me. :-) (obviously I'm talking about future projects for upgrading my camera, I'm not going to reshoot this film.) Thanks for sharing, this was a really comprehensive video, I appreciate it.

informative video

Would you say the combined ibis and the 24-105F4 lens stabilization is on the same or around the same level as a gimbal? Im thinking of picking up that lens just for the dual stabilization alone, since I hear its amazing (I hate gimbals for wedding shoots)

Does it still revert to DFD when in 1080p at higher fps (60 and above)?

Hello. Has Lumix S5 II advanced focus stacking (so called "post focus") or not? Is difficult to find trustworthy information on the internet. Some sources say one way, others another.

Sometimes I wish I was a dentist as well...

Waw, a Siriu Cinelens attached to the S5IIx is showing the target audience of this camera, which is video audience.

I wonder what interesting glass he was referring too? That was my biggest concern with the system. Had the S5II but sold it to pay some of the cost for the Z8

I would love this camera but the most important thing for me is whether it can be used as a Webcam for Zoom and Teams on Mac, Windows (and sometimes Linux ) as this is what I would use it for most. I have had terrible trouble getting my S5 to work so had to borrow a Sony ZV-10 which you just plug in and it works straight away. Good review anyway, covered just about everything else.

Hello my friend, welcome to 2024, where people so hyped with 1" sensor pocket camera ^^

I have had the s5ii for 6 months and it has been the most consistent camera I have ever used. I’ve never had so many shots for both photo and video be “winners” versus the amount of shots I take. With Sony cameras (unless you nail exposure perfectly) you can expect to throw out maybe half of your shots at least. I feel like the image quality you get from these cameras is above Sony cameras but below maybe a red Komodo or arri Alexa. What a wild statement to be saying….

I'm still in a dilemma about whether to go for the FX30 or S5II. Currently, I'm using the Panasonic G85, and it's a beast when I shoot wedding videos, especially solo. Panasonic stabilization is a must for me; however, I kind of prefer Sony's color looks and the variety of their third-party lenses. Unfortunately, I can't go with Sony's amateur stabilization. I don't want the hassle of using Catalyst Browse software for each set of 100 clips. I've never used a Vlog PP on Panasonic because the G85 lacks log profiles. I'm not sure if it is similar to Sony's S log, allowing me to use a variety of LUTs.

Great video, I've got the S5IIX and it's a really enjoyable camera to use, the only issue I find is the exposure becoming darker when you half press the shutter as shown here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hL97hpmEvsfZias.htmlfeature=shared

S1H2 is gonna be an insane market destroyer I really hope it has immensely upgraded features.

no more sony a7 IV?

My only comment about the G9II having S5II ergonomics is that the G9 was the best physical ergonomics of any camera I'd ever picked up. If Panasonic wanted to make them the same to save $, making the S5IIx match the G9 makes some sense to me. But, it's fine. Still love the G9II, just would love it more with the old power-switch location, top screen, locking knob, and a back-right wheel that didn't set me to F16 all the time :-) Thanks for the video, you're always very thorough and considerate.

The S5II is near perfect for my demands. But what is most irritating is, that the eyesensor is still active when the screen is folded out. There is no setting in the menu to let the eyesensor automatically switch off when the screen is folded out. One has to do this manually by the LVF-Button. For me this is a major issue and I hope Panasonic will fix this by a firmware update.

Obuv na noge 😂

The internal video image quality is still better on the first S5 and S1, the edge sharpening and chroma noise reduction of the S5II are disappointing. I hope the new S camera will not get the same internal video engine.

We need another s1h2 with a global shutter I’m saving up for the next lumix camera
