Thanks very much!

Thanks brother!

Thanks man 👍🏻

Thanks Keith. Ah that's cool. It's a very special place that's for sure. So much to offer; from rolling open moorland, to forests and rivers, valleys, neolithic monuments and settlements, and ancient woodlands. The light is just incredible. And yeah it's great for astro too. A filmmaker's dream

Thanks a lot!

That's lovely to hear thanks mate 🙌🏻

It sure is. Thanks 👍

Thanks 🙏

Thanks Roy!

Thanks!

Thanks very much! And thanks to Dartmoor for the scenery 😍

@@RoweFilms of course 😉

Thanks very much! Yeah it's still a beast. My setup has changed somewhat since I shot this, but I won't be getting rid of the GH5S anytime soon.

Thanks guys!

Thanks Nick 👍🏻

Thanks man. Keep plugging away you will get there 💪

Thanks a lot!

Thanks Sappy 😊

Thanks. Hi from Devon!

Thanks! Dartmoor almost grades itself 👌

@@RoweFilms I am not sure but my mind is on gh5s as my first camera . My goal is youtube i mean videos . Would you suggest that camera for beginners like me ?

@@faroo7011 yes but just be aware of the lack of ibis in the GH5S. The internal stabilisation of the GH5, GH5II and GH6 might be better suited to a beginner

@@RoweFilms thanks mate

You can do it 🙌

Thank you for the encouragement! 😉

It is indeed 👍

Thanks Kashif. Honestly, I'm actually struggling to remember 😂. My setup has changed quite a bit since I shot this, particularly lenses. I'm pretty sure I used mostly the Samyang T1.5 cine lenses, EF mount with a speedbooster. The widest shots are probably the Panasonic 12-35mm f/2.8 mark II.

Hello. That's good to hear thank you. I'd recommend shooting everything in V-Log, in any of the 10 bit 422 settings. If you go with one of the All-I settings, that's how you will get the best quality out of camera with maximum data under the hood. Alternatively, you can output to an external recorder such as the Atomos Ninja V, and record externally in ProRes 422, or ProRes RAW. ProRes RAW being absolute beast mode, the best quality you will get out of the GH5S. You might find it useful to watch this BTS of mine, if you haven't already: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oZd5qNuZnrGcdJ8.html I'm not the man to ask about Autofocus though I'm afraid, as I always shoot manual. Best of luck!

Sure does 👍🏻

Thanks! Yes I always shoot VLog. Only exception is when shooting RAW and even then I convert the linear RAW image to Log for grading. Never find myself with a contrast problem with these cams as shooting Log that's very much up to you to dial in. Cheers!

@@RoweFilms I see.. that is great to hear! now in 2023 do you still gonna use the GH5s, or do you think is better to find a GH6 house and keep using ones old lenses? I got three lenses from the Gh3... I also been thinking to get the Black Magic 4k or even wait for their new L format pocket camera that I guess will not be able to take 4/3 lenses but it might be the best choice at the end of 2023 and forward... but I am not sure... I feel for acting in front of the camera I need continuous autofocus, and for going out in the city making street documentaries of people's lifestyles I need low light abilities that I can trust... But the Black Magic Cameras do have a different fallout of color science that is very appealing .. but maybe is more about How one learn to color grade than it is n issue of the Panasonic GH cameras to handle a similar look of the Black magic cameras? what is your opinion and advice? thanks for getting back! cheers

Mixing formats like that could be tricky, different lens mounts and all that. You might be better off with one or the other depending on your needs

@@RoweFilms The Panasonic S5 Mark 2 has come out its has caught my eye

Thanks! This might help: rowe-films.sellfy.store

Thanks very much that's good to hear mate. That's a good question because both are great cameras, but as of 2022, I'd have to say GH6. The low light advantage you speak of is there, however the gap has narrowed considerably with advancements in tech. The GH6 is a significant improvement on the GH5 in low light, thanks to functions like the DR Boost mode which produces a very clean image. So this is less of a ‘thing’ now. And if you follow my channel, you’ll probably see I’ve never been one to buy into the argument that a bigger sensor is superior, because that’s just not the case. There’s always trade offs. The GH6 overall is a more advanced camera in my opinion. Much better functions and settings, especially in terms of resolutions and frame rates. The S5 for example doesn't even shoot 4K 60p in 10 bit, whereas the GH6 shoots 5.7K 60p, 4K 120p and HD 300p, all in 10 bit. Further, the S Series line all have cropping in on the sensor, and the S5 has some recording limits too. In my opinion, the S Series, as fantastic as they are, are now starting to show signs of their age and are in need of an update soon. The GH6 is the more future proofed camera right now and gives you more options. Being m43, lenses are smaller, lighter and cheaper - something that shouldn't be sniffed at when considering wedding shoots. A good way to think about it is, the GH6 is top of its line. The S5 is bottom of its line. Or should I say, entry level. And that plays out in specs and functions etc. But there is no disputing both cameras create fantastic looking images with very little between them in terms of visual quality. Cheers

@@RoweFilms Hey tommy, thanks so much for taking the time and replying it. I was already leaning towards the GH6 but hearing from you has helped me a lot with the decision. The GH6 is it then. May I ask one last question? Is there any budget lenses would you recommend for shotting weedings? The GH6 is very expensive at least in my country and right now I can't really afford lenses that costs almost the same price as the camera body, so i will have to go for the cheaper ones. I've been thinking in buying one prime and one zoom lens as well, so that i can have a bit of both worlds and not run without options whilst filming it. If you have any recommendations I would gladly accepted it. Thanks so much for everything Tommy. I wish you all the very best. Cheers mate.

@@augustolucca4024 no worries. Yes the Panasonic 12-35mm f/2.8 ii is a great all rounder. Basically a 24-70 equivalent in ‘full frame’ terms. Very versatile focal length and it’s pin sharp, if that’s the kind of thing you like. Primes wise, the 25mm and 42.5mm f/1.7 are very nice lenses, fast, produce lovely looking images and incredible value. Hope that helps

Don't use black bars, set your project to the correct aspect ratio you plan to export it in (eg. 2.39:1 which would be 3840 x 1607 for 4K delivery).

This 👆👍🏻

Thanks! No mostly recorded into the Atomos Ninja V in ProRes 422

Yep, all natural. Dartmoor is known for its incredible light. Only a tad of pro mist on the lens, that’s it.

@@RoweFilms beautiful

Definitely. I've been mixing S5IIX, GH6 and GH5S no problem at all.

@@RoweFilms Thanks mate. Can the GH5s record Raw with a recorder?

@@biglazybeastproductions yes it outputs raw 👍🏻

@@RoweFilms Fantastic. I think having a MFT camera along with my full Frame will open up some interesting possibilities while filming. Thanks again for all your help.

@@biglazybeastproductions no worries mate. Yeh I love running both. Different tools for different jobs 👍🏻

No ProRes via the Ninja V

@@RoweFilms so when in ProRes is it 10bit or 12bit?

@@colinthomas2525 standard PR is 10 bit, PR RAW is 12 bit

@@RoweFilms So you use FCPX I suppose ?

@@dark-california yes that's right

@@RoweFilms Thank you. I am new to videography and your videos and info help. This is the style I see myself doing wedding videos

You’d need to define what you mean by “cinematic” settings mate? There’s an awful lot that goes into it

Noise is caused by underexposure. Try exposing your shots higher 👍🏻
