Video

you haven't seen the canon fullframe rf 28mm f2.8. or sony FE 24-50mm f2.8

You ever consider shooting with a GH6 if you found one on a steal?

Thanks for your insights Nigel! Keep up the great work! Already have a question for next month haha

Very informative video. Thanks for making it. Something that is not often mentioned re focus of Lumix cameras is that the AF/AE LOCK button can be programmed to force the camera to focus quickly both in autofocus and manual focus mode. I've only heard it mentioned once on CZcams but for me its a game changer for these cameras. 👌

Loved the episode, great content creators both of you! 😊 But did anyone count how many times the filler word "like" was said in this podcast episode? 😅

The setup looks cool man!

Thank you so much!!!!

lets goooooo

First comment here. I’m happy to listen this for first thing in the morning ❤

Which top handle do you recommend ?

hey Nigel! the G85 was my 1st Lumix, I sold it for a GH5, however I brought another one because of the size...just falling in love using it again...one question: some say that it is better to use the Natural color profile since it is the flattest and easier to color grade...and you suggest the Cine D...isn't the color already too 'baked in' which gives lest flexibility in color grading? ...which is the best?....by the way why this second channel? thx

Is it suitable in weddings? Im using R8

I got this camera for several years now and it’s been good to me

LIKE 320 🎥📷📽🎬

If you could buy a G85 for 250 bucks or a Olympus e-m1 II for 400 which one would you pic? As a b-cam to a Panasonic S5ii so not main camera. Is the e-m1 ibis as good as the g85 ibis?

G95, GX9 and G100 all have noticeable 1.3x 4K crop… whereas G85 and GX80 only have a small 1.1x 4k crop. It results in better 4k video quality. Weird downgrade for the G95 and GX9.

Whats your setting on CINE D profile?

In my opinion the Panasonic S5 is a full frame equivalent of all of Panasonic Mid Range micro four third camera's. Especially the ones from 2019 backwards.

Do these LUTs work with Cinelike-D2? Got a GH6 hehe

Are the first 50 seconds of this video shot with the kit lens the camera comes with?? PLEASE let me know! Thank you!

I love that you spend so much time helping your followers!

Wait, the G100 totally has a mic jack. I have one.

Holyshit is the comics vm30 that good? That's crazy good EDIT: if you wanna learn davinci resolve as fast as possible, change the key shortcuts to match premiere pro. It will feel exatcly like you're using premiere. The timeline pretty much works almost the exact same way if you get the shortcuts right

Bought a cinema camera 6k and sold my fx30 for a s5ii lens mount compatibility has been a life saver

Being practical is great. I still shoot with a gh4 as backup and gh5 as a main camera. My audio gear though is another story. basically the bane of my existence.

Thank you for answering my question, really helpful advice! Think I will definitely sell either the M43 or Sony as I really think the S5ii could be a powerhouse for me in the long term

I agree with you about weddings. If you can shoot weddings well. Aunt make a narrative film out of audio and visuals captured on the wedding day or surrounding the wedding weekend, then You can basically branch out into anything else. Filming weddings well is hard.

Yeah, I kinda want to have only one system also. I have a G85 and X-T3. Was thinking about getting an X-H2s but started watching all the CZcams AFC issue videos 😂. So of course I went down a GAS rabbit hole of not knowing what to get next. R6 MKii yeah but not with that micro hdmi or those restrictive lens options. Z6iii Seems cool but no open gate and it’s a bit expensive. S5iiX yeah but it’s slow. I dislike slow stuff. Or just stick with what I have a get some nice lenses. Ugh 😅

Hey Nigel, I'm currently considering a side-grade from my FX30 to the S5IIX. Would you consider the S5IIX's autofocus to be in a state that's close enough to Sony-level since the update a few months ago? I currently rely heavily on autofocus for mostly event videography, but I keep a close eye on the settings, as even the FX30 struggles with multiple faces in the frame. I also deeply envy the recent Panasonic models having the ability to switch their focus-by-wire lenses to linear.

Hi Nigel great podcast...I am as well split between MFT and L mount with a P6Korg as well but I have 24-105 EF USM F4 glued on it for run and gun docu style. For me Hard to justify new MFT buy nowadays Wich such lens variety in L mount alliance...

The people that hate Nikon are the ones that have not had a Nikon. They just follow a fad. It's as simple as that. They talk about autofocus but Nikon has had a perfectly acceptable autofocus for years, while its glass is the best in the market. Anyway, micro four thirds gives great strong points.

More of these! This is awesome.

Really nice to watch this kind of a vlog, raw and short! Btw. Will you edit and post some footage from BMPCC OG?

I would think the popularity of the G85 would be greatly diminished if more people were to explore all the upgrades found in the G95. In my humble opinion the G95 is the real cost-effective bomb with its headphone jack, 20 Megapixel improved sensor, 120 p hd as well as other improvements I don't care to take the time to list. Anyone hoovering around this price range would be so much better served if they spent just a little more and bought the G95! What are your thoughts?

4:12 "Florida boy can't handle the cold!" 💀 I was in the water longer than you lol

(insert witty comment) Oregon is such a beautiful state, thanks for showing me around Nigel, I'll never forget this trip!

Nice! Did you take him to the Goonies house. We went but felt for the owners so didn’t go to close.

Where did you get the bench? Or did you build it yourself?

hi nigel! just discovered your channel. just curious, which olympus camera did you use to shoot this video with? i love the IQ for video

Bought your cinelike-d luts and they are a game changer!!!!! People cannot believe the finished product is an 8 bit camera. LOVE my G95 (bought in 2019) and still have felt NO need to 'upgrade' to the GH models. Your luts have my heels dug in that much deeper.

This man has ever since peeked my interest in Lumix M4/3 cameras with a perspective of what M4/3 can do that 8bit full frames of the a7iii era cant. Cheers to him for what he does

Just saw a video by Evan Monsma that I think you might find interesting. The dude MADE a speed booster out of scrap wood and a magnifying glass!

I have two of them..Use them for event interviews.. I can record and take photos with the other one..I love mines.. I need to get a few more..Nice video.. Make more videos using G85..

The most realistic van I've come across. You show the 'smallness' of it, which other people don't seem to show. I wondered if I was odd... now I know I'm not!

I started my video career on this camera, definitely recommend anyone to pick it up for their first camera!

Perfect

You made a great video, thanks. The G85 has very good image quality and I have the same combo. What setting are you using in the Cine-D profile?

Picked one up today for $310, with kit lens, mint, boxed, less than 50 shutter count. I picked it because it's the cheapest Lumix body which has focus bracketing.

can it used photo?
