I have been using this for at least two years. The stand out features of this is the video quality, and IBIS. I primarily use this for video in 10 bit. The good I do not have overheating issues when shooting in 10 bit mode, though in 90F heat I do feel it get noticeably warm after an hour. I have not had it shut down on me. The battery is typically safe for 1:30 of 10 bit footage (1:45 or 1:50 total possibly) when using the LCD. Using 3rd party batteries there is at least 15% less run time on average. When comparing against the Sony A7, there is the light weight construction (sony is no different) control ergonomics (something sony lacks) and control options (way better than sony). The video quality is better than my D850. I have at least four video profiles set up on my camera depending on the situation, but you can have more under C3 by going through the menu. I have shot it in (almost) complete darkness and was able to get usable footage after some light cleaning (flat profile). For sound, the auto limit works and keeps things from clipping. The 20-60mm lens is pretty good as a kit video lens for most things. It has a sharpness falloff after 35mm or so, but most of my use is at 20mm. The LCD screen can be customized to your liking with multiple options. There are several profiles to choose from, and you can additionally tweak most of them. I use Cine-D for outside, Natural for indoors, Flat for low light and the last one is the 8 bit mode in 709 for long shooting. Lots of control here. No issues with Auto-focus when shooting pictures. Having the options to choose either e-shutter or mechanical is an advantage when you want to shoot silently. Fun with manual focus lenses with focus peaking enabled along with IBIS. The not so great Battery life indicator does not have % indication. This makes it difficult to tell if you have 5 more minites of video life left or 30 seconds, when running thr battery down. Though normally getting the battery that low to begin with is bad practice. The supplied charger is no good. It takes too long, costs too much and takes up more space than needed. I use the XTAR 4 bay charger to charge multiple batteries. So the auto focus can hunt some times, which typically happens when there is low light (when you're at iso 12800). This can happen with rapid subject changes too. This isn't news. It's typically not an issue most of the time in normal light with subject tracking enabled. The built in sound pre-amps are good enough, but external recorders will be cleaner. I never use the built-in microphones. When taking pictures, the D850 is clearly better. The Nikon has a better grip, even if bigger and heavier, for my hands. The grip on the S5 hurts my hand after extensive shooting. Buffer depth is not high enough on the S5 for my liking, though it's fine once you put a V90 card in. My biggest annoyance is that the Nikon gives me all of the options that I need to tune the Jpeg output where it's perfect out of the camera, but this isn't the case with the Panasonic. What the Panasonic is missing is a separate brightness option, that allows me to pull down shadows in a specific way while boosting highlights without clipping everything. In Raw, I more or less can get there - obviously slightly different due to being different brands. Exposure drift on static objects. When using auto-iso in video on a static scene the camera will sometimes start to overexpose by two stops for some reason. Switching to manual iso drops you all the way to the base, which ruins the footage. Dialing in exposure compensation while this starts to happen is an experience of chasing your own tail. This is with the latest firmware. The USB-C port on my camera does not work off external power when recording. I verified this with a USB power meter. I use a dummy battery with a USB-C connector in to a battery. This runs without issue except when the battery gets depleted, which causes an abrupt end to the video corrupting it - Panasonic provides a software tool to rescue your footage and it does work. Battery grip tax. Some brands charge obscene amounts of money for battery grips, which is mainly plastic and some wires, and Panasonic is no different. Other The electronic image stabilization can introduce artifacts in to your footage, but this is expected behavior. While the IBIS does work, it's not magic and shaky footage will still be ruined. I like controls to be lockable against accidental changes, this is a feature of typically expensive DSLRs for pro's. One thing that can happen is that the switches might move. The focus switch might get changed, or your burst mode selector type (leftmost dial) might switch to a different burst mode without realizing it. This is typically a risk when you have the camera hanging off while you walk around - from repeated brushing up against clothes. Versus the S5 II and X Looking at the specifications, the main stand out feature for me is the ability to record 10 bit without a time limit. I have lost some moments because I was not paying enough attention, granted that is ultimately my fault. The second attractive feature is the larger buffer for taking images. With this I would not need to keep V90 cards just for pictures and keep the large capacity V30 cards for video in the camera. The better auto focus comes with a cost, mainly reduced ability to pull up shadows due to banding. This S5 does not have banding. But I suspect for most this will be the main desired feature.

Camera has a great 4k video quality. Great low light paired with a fast lens like a f1.8 Auto focus is not the best, but we all know. I'm overall happy with the purchase. The standard picture profile is the best. lot of settings for video, build quality felt great in the hands. No complaints at all Purchased the camera 3 weeks ago and decided to return today 1/6/23 simply because the S5ii is being released by the end of the month. Otherwise I would have kept the camera.

I love my Gh5. It's made a lot of great videos and it's made me a LOT of money over the years. My only gripe was the M4/3 format for several reasons. This camera does everything the Gh5 did so well and so much more. Although I have many cameras for various situations, if you can only afford one camera, this would be a great choice for video and photo. PROS: -Full Frame + APS-C modes -96MP still images -24MP video images give you great image resolving -easy to use menu just like the Gh5 -in-camera time-lapse video creation is so great and builds on the Gh5 -the sigma EF adapter is perfect for all of my EF lenses -auto focus is greatly improved over other Panasonic cameras -Log film mode built-in -resolves clean blacks even at ISO 20,000 (can be cleaned up in post if ISO exceeds 20,000 -the lens it comes with is perfect for gimbal use although it's aperture-situation isn't ideal -6K recording coming soon -dual SD card slots -great battery life -uses XLR-1 -great dials -heavy duty construction -no moire filter, so it resolves the every last MP of imaging power while still adequately reducing moire CONS: -auto focus still lags behind Sony (but I almost never use it, so not a concern for me) - as many will be upgrading from Gh5 its a bummer it uses a different battery -viewfinder should have been upgraded, it's quality is now outdated -slow motion is in APS-C mode -10 bit mode is hard for editing software to process -no all intra

The media could not be loaded. Doing multicam work, and find this camera to be the best in decades of shooting. 4K 10bit in 3840 or C4K/DCI on fairly standard SDXC cards, not exotic memory cards that A7SIII would need. Glad to finally move on from Sony ecosystem, especially in the IOS stabilization department. Happy with the image quality, and the lightweight 20-60mm lens. I'm a SOC (Society Of Camera Ops member), and enjoy using it for handheld work also. Good viewfinder, and ability to place the LCD screen implements well also. Connectivity and ports are ample. Pair it with a fast lens for very low light shooting. Typical night lighting, it images fine. Basically like I mentioned, it can record 4K 10bit onto pretty standard SDXC cards. Yes you can go down the higher bitrate road to wherever with the Sony and others, but this one can go there too, externally to a Ninja V, in 6K. Personally if I need 6K in 12 bit, I would rather buy regular useable recording memory, ie SDXC cards and SSD drives, instead of proprietary or expensive memory. The power options are excellent, the single battery last a long time, and it can take external power through USB-C. So I started this whole rig with building it with Sony A7SIII's. I quickly changed that when looking at a side by side sequence shot with both cameras (A7SIII and S5). The test was at night. To me the S5 had much better motion interpretation, and again way way better stabilization. The S5 to me was a clearly better choice for my work. One last thing, the video shows 8 S5 cameras in full record sync, I love that multicam record beep sound.
