    The fact that I find you one of the best channels out there is because you explain everything so detailed and worth knowing. but what separates you is that the motion graphics among that are so useful that I immediately understand what you're saying, compared to just a talking head, talking about the features or explaining certain drawbacks.

    We all need to stop talking about Panasonic auto focus until they change to phase detect. I don't use auto focus, ever, so I am not interested in it. There are much more simple cameras for bloggers who want it. I am a filmmaker, I am interested in the quality and the assist features. The S5 is beyond what most filmmakers need. The idea that I can shoot FULL FRAME, 5.9K RAW, for 2000 bucks is beyond incredible. Many thanks for this incredible content. Brilliant work.

    This is such a great detailed review !! Perfect show and tell to properly explain all the features of the camera. Clear for the layman, the enthusiast and I’m sure the pros. Loved the graphs and the timely coloured and animated annotations, accompanied with totally relevant b-rolls to illustrate what you’re talking about right that second (e.g. the cut to the 65mm lens on the S5 on set…). Loved it ! I’m about to scour your channel to see if you have other camera reviews like this one. Gosh that was good !
    I have so wanted to love and buy this camera: such an inviting little body that makes you want to hold it and shoot with it, so many good features for photography, but that autofocus for videos is a deal breaker for me. The lack of choice in their lens lineup for lightweight telephotos (e.g. the sony 70-350 or 70-300 FE) is another one for my usage 🥹.
    Come on Panasonic, please get that autofocus situation sorted! The rest (like lens manufacturer building lenses for the L-mount) will follow.

    Simply one of the best channels I've ever seen on youtube, It is like Gerald Undone but with graphics and animation!!! Outstanding work...! Thank you for your valuable help I received my S5 a few days ago. I was very afraid to switch to Panasonic because of the AF problem but I'm really happy with the S5, I was a Panasonic micro third user (G7) in the past but I left because of the autofocus and poor low light performance. It is my first Full Frame and now I'm coming from Sony A6400 which is a wonderful camera but know I feel the big leap of Full Frame at an affordable price... Hey men where did you find those wonderful PNG images in your presentations are soooooo gooooood...!

    Wow, a great review. I like how you mention the camera capability along with your viewpoint or recommendation how it can improve in very clear graphic presentation. I hope Panasonic will listen to your professional feedback and improve its camara especially AF.
    Thanks again for this Great review!!.. Please do video tutorial how to make beautiful presentation like this clip too..

    I just had to subscribe to your channel. Amazing how informative your videos are. I have seen so many videos from other youtubers to learn about the S5. All I had to do was watch your video. I ultimately decided against the S5 because of the autofocus. Now I'm looking forward to the A7IV and the GH6.

    Best in-depth review ever!
    I am still using my S5, done more then 100 videos for a CZcams channel I would love to mention but it wouldn’t be fair 😊.
    What I’ve noticed that once you are filming and to avoid pulsing you can tap on the screen of the camera to choose the AF point and not to tap on Set.
    This means that the camera will wait for the confirmation but somehow not pulsing….
    Yes you can’t see any other information in the meantime but still work to try.
    When window shopping I always come to the same conclusion. S5 is very good camera even 3y later.
    Thank you for the educational review. It must have been a hard work to put it together.
    Well done.👍🏻

      Thank you so much for your kind comment.
      And yes, the focus idea you have seems to be a great solution for desperate times when you really need to nail focus.
      And yes the S5 is great! Didn’t you want to consider the new S5IIX?

    • @vilagivideos3020
      @vilagivideos3020 Před 3 měsíci +1

      I have. However I’ve just got a FX 30, second hand for less the a S5iix.
      I am bit puzzled over the video quality… in a bad way. I have 2weeks to return it if I can’t make up my mind.
      I like everything about FX30 but it feels like the video is much better from the Panasonic.
      The Sony feels like you need to be very careful with how you expose.
      Any thoughts on this. As you have used both of the systems.
      Thank you for your time.
      (Or is it just a matter of FF vs S35)

    • @THEDPJOURNEY
      @THEDPJOURNEY  Před 3 měsíci

      I personally didn’t test the FX30, I have doubts it’s the same sensor as the FX3, and it’s a matter that SONY tweaked the image to match the FX3. Again I’m speculating here.
      But yes, Panasonic surely has a better image in my opinion, it’s a lot more professional and the closest thing to ARRI look from the affordable Mirrorless market I would say. The thing that drives people away from Panasonic ‘s look is how it needs a lot of massaging after you shoot it and applying their 709 LUT. That’s what people don’t understand when comparing to SONY. Which gives you a lot more contrasting and saturated image.

    • @vilagivideos3020
      @vilagivideos3020 Před 3 měsíci +1

      Thank you, I have packed the Sony up.
      On the used market the S5ii is about 400 less then the S5iiX.
      So I may as well look for a lens with it. If needed one day pay for the update.
      Thank you for your time.
      Have a good light.

    Great video. This really does seem like an interesting camera and I think I’ll pick one up to compliment my EVA-1. One thing I think I’m going to miss is the inability to switch native ISO setting, and then adjust ISO from there. For instance with my EVA-1, when I’m in native ISO at 2500 mode and I step down to 2000, it gives me a much cleaner image without taking any substantial hit to dynamic range. Varicam owners do the same thing when shooting native ISO of 5000, they step it down to say 4000 or 3200 for less noise. Anyway sounds like noise really isn’t an issue anyway but it would be nice if we had that level of control.

    As many others have said, great specs review, thx so much. So clear and charts/diagrams really well put together. I used to do info charts for a big company so know how much work goes into this. I have subscribed to your channel, the first CZcams channel I’ve ever subscribed to. Eager to see the AF tests as other reviews have shown it to be OK tracking in video. I don’t know why it’s giving these inconsistent results, maybe there are different FW versions out with reviewers?

    • @THEDPJOURNEY
      @THEDPJOURNEY  Před 3 lety

      It’s a pleasure to know I’m the first channel you subscribed to. Yeah AF is inconsistent, in photo mode you get GREAT results. In video it’s not to be trusted. I did many tests and I never got something that makes it worthy of my trust.

    • @nashi0
      @nashi0 Před 3 lety

      The DP Journey Thx. I guess you’ll cover this all in your AF video. Would be good to know what settings etc make it work better or worse. Frame rates seem to make a difference. Maybe aperture too? Also subject setting and lighting. With so many different models (subjects) and reviewers, there’s no consistency of shoot environment, perhaps this contributes to inconsistent findings. I’ve never made videos before but want to give it a go, so I have no experience to compare it with, just what I see online.

    Congratulations on a PHENOMENAL review! Instant sub! How do you edit all of your titles/animated graphics? BTW, thank you for being the ONLY CZcamsr with the good sense to notice and point out the horrible headphone jack placement that gets in the way of the LCD. This is extremely disappointing! Shame on Panasonic for doing this, especially considering how they could have designed the camera with the jack out of the way, just like Canon is doing with their cameras!

    Let's pray for the Panasonic engineers! Ha! brilliant review with amazing graphics. Your critique is right-on, though I am not sure (after watching your other video) if you know to tap the screen to confirm the AF tracking.
    Though we now have the S5 Mark II with phase-detect AF and the II X with more video features, I bought this original model for its even deeper discounted price. The fact that Panasonic doesn't forget the older models when updating firmware to record external RAW is really nice.

    Amazing review and graphics! I preordered it with the 20-60mm a couple of days ago and will get a free Sigma 45mm 2.8 as part of the deal, and here in Sweden it's cheaper then the new Sony A7C which is crazy. I will use it as my main photography camera and a partner to my GH5 for filming where the GH5 falls short (low-light, dynamic range, full V-log etc) and I already have the Ninja V. I Wish it had a better EVF and Full-HDMI but for the price compared to others in the same range it's a no-brainer for me. I only use autofocus for stills anyway. Would be great to have good continuous autofocus in video but the other specs and things like shutter angle is much more important to me. I plan to get the new Sigma 85 DG DN 1.4 for portrait work, interviews and b-roll. And probably the Sigma 24-70 2.8.
    Which lens do you use most frequently when filming with the S1H/S5?

      It is a shame that we in Sweden did not get the deal that The UK (and I think the US) got, where you have the choice of the Sigma lens or the Panasonic XLR audio unit. As a GH5 user with lots of fast speedboosted adapted glass, I would go for the audio unit especially as the Swedish price for it is relatively high compared to the UK.

    Beautiful work as always my man... I recently sold my S1, GH5 and GH5S and saw the S5 as a missed opportunity with the micro HDMI and DFD. However, this extremely well balanced and considered review might've just swayed me back towards Panny with a truly amazing value cine/photo anamorphic capable cam. Let's all hold hands and pray that they save us all and themselves from a horrifically dystopian duopoly of Canon and Sony.

Lens selection directly from Pana is not that wide, but I use 80% of time my 16-35 f4 from Pana and another 15% Sigma 28-70 and it covers pretty much everything I need (interviews, product videos, my CZcams creative work, vlogging). Photos are top, easy to edit skin tones. Overall 9/10, no reason to change.
