      It has a 1.5X crop at 4k 60 and that disqualifies it as a professional use camera, imo.

      @DustinArmstrongPro  Před 2 měsíci +3

      You realize that ARRI, RED, and many other "professional" camera brands have cameras that are exclusively S35 (1.5x crop) sensors? It cropping in at 4k 60 is inconvenient since it's a full frame camera but saying it disqualifies it for professional use is wild

    Dustin, thank you for continuing to make videos for the Lumix line. You are one of the very few who still do and I appreciate each and everyone. The "Brand" Ambassador programs started going by the wayside with Canon and their Ambassadors of Light program. Was sad to see that start to diminish. Seems like the Brands would use these better to highlight their gear and the people who use them. Would be something to reach for (a goal or milestone for the Brand and the photographers who use them). Anyway, keep up the great work. There are those of us Lumix users out here that really like what you do and the gear you use. Keep up the good work. Peace.✌

    Atleast someone's there using lumix for videos, would love to own a lumix one day and yes as you said it hard for someone to buy cameras, still struggling to get my own kit of lumix so i can make good content, love the brand love their cameras.
    Have been a sony user as i don't have my own camera, but if you ask me i will always go for lumix because i must say lumix is on a different level in term of cameras. Love your videos, gets me motivated to work harder to achieve my dream.

    Thank you for your content. I would love the Lumix s5IIX for my hybrid type of content. Unfortunately it is out of my budget. Between the body and the few lenses to cover the 16mm to 200mm I shoot at, it appears to be in the $5000 range plus my local sales tax. I know this camera and lenses would cover me for years like my Nikon d3100 (14 years). My other cameras are 5+ years old, but are limited to specific uses.
    I also like the 4 channel audio option as I am considering getting back into offering service.
    Please keep up with the content. I was considering a couple of Sony cameras , but after seeing what the S5IIX has to offer, this is the camera I am considering for my next long term use purchase.

Have a question, between the 100-300 and the 100-400 , which one do you recommend? And also , I bought I UHS-ii v60 SD card , but was told I need a V90 instead? Is there a big difference?

      I'm not as familiar with micro 4/3s gear for LUMIX over S series so I'm not the one to ask haha. V90 though if you're shooting higher bit depth files and higher frame rates. V60 will be fine for most though. Something to consider if you plan to do that though
