I tried the Lumix S5iix (my honest opinion)

Have you ever tried a Lumix camera? Are there any features I missed. Also let me know if you'd like to see a direct comparison to something like the Canon R6ii!

You didn’t mention that this camera had probably the best stabilizing system! That’s huge

It’s not hype. It’s an open gate 6k30 full frame with active cooling. Now compare the price to something similar.

Hello Anthony, You forgot to mention that this camera doesn’t overheat and also has no video recording limit. You could also mention the Leica color science in this camera. There are very affordable prime lenses for both photo and video. Additionally, this camera inspires me to go out and shoot, testing both photography and videography. I can just hold it in my hands without reason as well—it just looks very cool. There is a tracking mode (eye, face, body) for photography now with the new firmware update. I can add many more things, actually, but I am still testing this camera myself now. Cheers.

I’m a cinema camera shooter. For the last 10 years I’ve been shooting on a RED. I always thought about buying a mirrorless to take stills and BTS videos of sets. I like the Sony auto focus… but they didn’t have shutter angle. However there is only one thing that people who actually shoot all day ( 8 hours ) care about … that’s a fan. If a camera overheats … it’s not a professional camera - I got a lumix S5iiX because it has a fan built into the camera. I don’t care if a camera shoots 8K has autofocus and every single cool feature. If there is a chance it’s going to turn off because it’s designed too actually overheat. It’s a piece of sh..

Imagine having a camera so good, that the core gripes are around the colour of the text markings on the body and an EVF on/off switch that can be disabled in the menu...and that's really about it. So here's what this video is actually about: Image quality? Excellent. Dynamic range? Excellent. Professional features & tools? Excellent. Ergonomics? Excellent. IBIS? Beyond excellent! Price point? Beyond, beyond excellent! Simply put, there is simply nothing from either Canon, Sony or even Nikon that matches the insane value proposition of the S5II & X. Fuji & Blackmagic come close though.

Actually, you can have 4 real time luts at a time, you just need to save them as "my looks" which have indeed 4 slots (and potentially more, I see a strange software limitation where you can't select more, but there are greyed out voices in the menu). Great video, thanks.

Proud user of Lumix cameras since 2008. Never looked back.

Hey Anthony!! Love your content, I wanted to give you a tip for multiple LUT profiles on LUMIX cameras. You can create up to 10 custom profiles on the camera, go to any custom slot, select LUT as base for the profile and then select the Cube file you want to use for that profile and you’re all set!! Hope it helps!

I wouldn't be mad if you joined me in the small but mighty Lumix community 😎

I’ve been wanting to try this system and camera out.

Man your videos are so great! Love your work bro

Per wasting of space by the LVF button - you can reprogram that button to do a large number of things, on an equal basis with all the other customizeable buttons.

Also! To Clarify 14:34 you can change your lut "sort of" in the playback menu you can got to RAW Processing and change your lut as long are shooting in RAW/FINE this will allow you to input a different lut and it will create a new JPG of the same image

I have had the s5ii for a year now, taken it to 5 different countries, and used it capture the first moments of my daughter meeting her baby sister for the first time. It is a swiss army knife like you said, which is why i bought it as a creator living overseas where I dont want to carry a huge amount of gear and glass and just want something that is durable and has me covered. it's really the best camera for the money on the market in terms of dollars in for value out.

I was a Canon shooter. Now so happy with Lumix S5II X... Simply loving it~!🥰

Mention the IBIS. It's world leading.

Which YouTubers were “paid” to promote this camera? All the YouTubers I’m familiar with had the exact same situation as you.

Definitely worth a comparison in Video & Photo. 🔥

I believe the feature of using more then one preset is actually available in the S5ii. You can use the real time lut funktion in your "custome picture profiles" and then just switch picture profiles like your preset is a native picture profile. Great video! Id love to see some one to one comparisons!
