16 reasons Panasonic S5II is the best camera for the MONEY!

[@ArberBaqaj]

Do you have anymore reasons?

[@neerajjaswal5991]

Hi Arber, Thanks for great videos. Here are some more reasons to switch: 1. Ability to adapt old Canon, Sigma DSLR lenses with adapters and Panasonic IBIS is great to stabilize them. 2. All Panasonic f1. 8 lenses are having same filter size thread , size and weight if I'm correct. Easy for travel and no separate NDs. 3. Cost is most important and value Panasonic cameras gives is huge. Need not to buy CF express type A cards as Panasonic codecs are easy on machines and file size with quality is great.No need to spend on extra type A cards and expensive readers. Panasonic is first one to give consumers external SSD recording from GH6 for high data rate videos. And for Panasonic S5 mii black model to release in May is having that feature. One time payment and enjoy high data rates on external SSDs all are having. 4. Live crop is a great feature in video, no need to buy sliders. These are my few points Arber.

As someone who ordered 2 and is excited, not only did you answer questions I had about the kit lens, but you also gave us downloadable footage!!! You earned a sub, a like to this video and a super thanks. Can't wait to go through your channel!

[@ArberBaqaj]

its comments like yours that give the energi to do this! Thanx a bunch my friend! Can I ask you, what is your name? best wishes!

[@TechMixr]

@@ArberBaqaj my name is Shaun! The service you provided with your video is unique and much needed in terms of some of the things that all the other KZbinrs hadn’t covered. I’m so glad you provided the footage as I had never worked with full VLOG (I’ve worked VLOG-L from my GH5 Mark II) so I did a quick test grade and really got to dig into the quality straight out camera. This was the next best thing to having the camera in hand, so thank you again. And providing all the resolutions is super awesome so others can try different things!

[@TechMixr]

@@ArberBaqaj just got one of my cameras! This thing is awesome even though I messed with it for about 10 minutes. Will dive deeper tomorrow!

[@9adriano21]

Another reason important to me, is actual video Timelapses, not just that S&Q BS in Sonys

[@ArberBaqaj]

that's very true! I actually use that a lot GH cameras!

[@fellowcitizen]

Re-watchin this -- finally ordered wone with a free 14-28. Looking forward to more 💎💎💎

[@Ulrich.Bierwisch]

The new 14-28mm lens might be another reason. Together with the 20-60 and the F1.8 primes of choice it's possible to build a system that is kind of the same size as a comparable GH6-system. For me, the S5-II is also a reason to keep the MFT-System because my expectations to get a better AF in the foreseeable future has now changed from "just hoping" to "being pretty sure". I expect more competitive small MFT cameras from Panasonic that will get better market share and keep the system alive longtime.

[@ArberBaqaj]

Yes I looking forward to testing that lens out and you are very right about the phase detect Af will come to other cameras =)

[@hoodaffairstv]

what sd cards did you use for the 6k

[@God_gave_His_Son_for_you]

My brand new Sony a7iv overheats/shuts down during outdoor daytime video recording so its not much of as workhorse and Im ready to sell it as soon as the S5iix becomes available in my locality. The new cooling fan is a great feature and i look forward to having uninterrupted full frame video for less than the cost of the Sony a7iv. Reply

[@ArberBaqaj]

Is this true? this is so unfortunate. Did you put the A7IV in the higher heating feature? Im not sure what its called.

[@ThePistonPit]

@@ArberBaqaj it’s true, even if temp to high… i had the a7iv and it used to overheat. Sold it and waiting for the X now.

[@ravirajnerkar9101]

Pls do videos on flash strobe and HHS off camera flash S5 II

[@kostasssss]

Excellent video! Did you notice moire patterns on the s5ii due to the lack of AA filter to the sensor?And if so is it going to be a problem on professional work?

[@greek-freaks]

yeah..i love the new arm auto focus..this is quite unique 🤣

[@kdotnico]

Awesome video! I am so much more convinced to buy this! Would this be good for sports photography and sports videography?

[@markshirley01]

I don't really see the advantage of open gate. If you have a object that needs to be completely in frame, then it will need to be within your horizontal 16:9 frame markers and centered within your 9:16 frame markers, so at this point you might as well frame up on a 16:9 file and stop the guessing on the open gate file.

[@9adriano21]

A lot of times you don’t know you are going to need both orientations, I have had customers asked be for vertical version after I shoot only thinking of a 16:9 horizontal edit. It’s more common everyday, by shooting open gate you have a nice blanket to provide both.

[@ArberBaqaj]

Yes exactly! The difference is quite big!

[@markshirley01]

@@9adriano21 you shoot 16:9 4K with vertical frame markers youll have enough resolution for social media anyway - no point guessing two compositions in open gate

[@Average1212]

It allows you to pull your vertical social media from your primary footage all at once, no remounting the camera and trying to recreate for socials. If you are making money from KZbin this is the most valuable feature on any camera period. One shooting session gives you YT, insta, YT shorts, and ticktock, without ever changing your camera setup, or reshooting a shot.

[@angeloplayforone]

Nr 13 Audio is the most important as I think Panasonic is the only brand providing good audio on mirrorless. The others manufactures does not take this important factor in video seriously.

[@ArberBaqaj]

YEs very true, I wished though that jag could disable 4 channels in the menu, so that if you want to only import two you could do it =)

[@ruff1draft]

Arber is there a Neutral picture profile on the Panasonic S5 Mark 1 and Panasonic S5 Mark 2 alongside the V Log and Natural picture profiles

[@mattbrown-mb]

Thanks for the video, just wondered if you can bake LUT in on one SD and record VLog unbaked for tweaking to the other SD with dual recording? Thanks 🙂

[@ArberBaqaj]

Thats a very good question, I don't think so but that would be a killer feature! Im gonna see if its possible and get back to you, best wishes!

[@GlennUpgraded]

for video, it's not possible. for stills, it's possible with RAW+Jpeg.

[@NMMatt]

Great video. I have an S5 iix with the S Pro 24-70. I love the camera for many reasons. I have a question about something I ran into this morning. I recorded 4K 60fps for the first time and the video was split into 1 min clips. Is this a setting issue or is this how the S5 iix records 4K 60?

[@БольшойБратухин]

Hi. What app I can open the settings file with?

[@pfv3462]

The some more reasons to switch are good 2 reasons to buy this camera ;-) Not overheating without opening all protective covers is my main reason for buying this camera! Was this recorded in Antwerp?

[@onovoguto]

Hi! Amazing video! I’m looking for a good camera for video, so what do you think about the lumix s5iix and the Fujifilm xh2s? Which for you is better for video? Thanks

[@ArberBaqaj]

Ive haven't shot with the XH2s unfortunately, I like Fuji for photos but I would actually prefer full frame, and as of wright S5II is probably the best bet, the S5II X will of course be great but I don't expect image quality to be much difference then the normal S5II. The raw recording however will have much more color. Hope this helps =)

[@onovoguto]

@@ArberBaqaj that’s great! Thanks a lot!

[@ArberBaqaj]

@@onovoguto My pleasure!

[@KingLeo-nf3bj]

How do you like the photo quality

[@ArberBaqaj]

Honestly I haven't taken to many photos with it. The few I have taken have been great though =)

[@DennisSchmitz]

Usable dynamic range is usually one stop ahead on the S Series in comparison to the Sony A7s3 and A74. Way less noise reduction and way more usable and cleaner shadows. IMATEST is a synthetic benchmark than can be manipulated by strong noise reduction.

[@ArberBaqaj]

Yes Im not really sure about which is better but they are so close =)

[@jorgemcf]

s5II records audio at 120, or 180 frames? Thanks

[@imranalijafar]

can you please share some 10bit 422 video clips on vlog so that we could try them on pc ?

[@ArberBaqaj]

hi! Sure! I.ll be back =)

[@ArberBaqaj]

There are a few, I have to upgrade my dropbox: www.dropbox.com/sh/o5ye9c6v2d9bvde/AACp8DtvGCb-BW4PW5O9Pg2fa?dl=0

[@imranalijafar]

@@ArberBaqaj thank you so much

[@TonyFuego]

Does autofocus work with mount adapters? I have a sigma 18-35 EF

[@fellowcitizen]

Yes, the Phase AF means that Sigma's MC-21 adaptor is able to work to its full potential.

[@enriquemartin8655]

Does all your ideas on the S5 II do they apply to the X version ?

[@fellowcitizen]

The X version has everything the base model has, plus the special features (SSD rec, All-Intra, pro streaming)

[@mikeyb6737]

Great video. I might buy the x version

[@Lumix2023]

S5 mark ii and a7iv which one is better and prefer ? Hybrid camera

[@GlennUpgraded]

if you're more videocentric, definitely S5ii. A7iv is only SLIGHTLY better for stills but overall S5ii is better.

[@9adriano21]

I’m selling my a7IV for the S5ii

[@ArberBaqaj]

For video S5II is probably better, I have the A7IV as well and its also great but S5II has more tools for video =)

[@ArberBaqaj]

They are quite similar in features but for video I wish Sony gave us, waveforms, vectorscopes, syncroscan, shutter angle, etc...

[@danielbabis1]

Hi Arber, amazing video! I have a question, how do you find the warping/wobbly stuff for vloggin at 16 or 18 mm? I was thinking of getting the 16 28 sigma for vlogging but some of the comments about wobbliness are worrisome. What are your thoughts?

[@ArberBaqaj]

its still a little bit warpy at 18, i would probably go with 20mm. I would go with the kitlens which is so cheap with the camera =)

[@coachoflife8436]

Greetings! Are Your files v log, v gamut? Cant understand why they are so noisy, like really, really noisy, even huge noise reduction do not eleminate it. I am comparing it with my smartphone's slog3 8 bit and 10 bit that i recorded on my android phone with external program and 240 fps looks way better in terms of noise and details than Yours 100 fps on V log. I really liked specs from Panny, but those noise scares me.... Just want to clarify it from You. May be overexposing helps?

[@coachoflife8436]

I really love to film very slow-mo, 240, 480 pfs and more, and this footage reminded me sony fs700r, without 2-3 stops overexposure noise is iremovable.... thus just use my phone for now, want to find good slow-mo camera without paying more than 5k

[@ArberBaqaj]

The slowmo is a bit noise but not the other files =), if you need better slowmo I would go with Sony A7SIII =)

[@deepdas7168]

100000 reasons to get it 💝

[@ArberBaqaj]

Very true =)

[@DrWNoLs]

Woah the pulsing in your sample clip of you outside is terrible! What gives? Downloaded the footage and zoomed in on the background and it’s pulsing worse than the original s5. I’ve never seen that in any other clip of the S5ii so it must be some weird reason specific to that shot.

[@ArberBaqaj]

I actually didn't notice that! Strange, I haven't seen it on other clips.

[@CodakChris]

but you told me to get gh6 ...lol seee cant trust yall

[@DroneStories]

The perfect camera, IF IT, HAD 4k60p UNCROPPED!!! I don't think it will have a good course, because the almost 6-year delay of PANASONIC, to develop a reliable fds autofocus system, reached it almost one step before the final exit from the camera industry (it has about 3% market share) WITH THESE NUMBERS, no you recover, UNLESS YOU OFFER UNIQUE ITEMS, at a competitive price. And unfortunately, it didn't (4k60p...)

[@ArberBaqaj]

For the price I would say, there is nothing close, you can look at A7sIII and A9II but they are in a different price bracket =)

[@God_gave_His_Son_for_you]

My brand new Sony a7iv overheats/shuts down during outdoor daytime video recording so its not much of as workhorse and Im ready to sell it as soon as the S5iix becomes available in my locality.
