Equipment:
1, camera: Lumix S5 II in Standard Pirture Profile, -5 Sharpness (disabled sharpening), -5 NR (disabled any kind of NR), - 3 contrast, -1.5 saturation. 6K Open Gate mode (effectively 8K but without the leftmost/rightmost area) rendered as 8K.
2, lens: 28-200. Absolutely great on a gimbal as
a, "tilt" doesn't need readjusting on the DJI RS4 between 28 and 200 if you use an in-between value for default
b, the zoom ring is easy to turn (unlike the 20-60) so it's possible to zoom in/out without locking the gimbal. Again, unlike with the 20-60
3, DJI RS4 gimbal
Manual mode to be able to force 1/400s for proper action freezing; f8 when zoomed out and f9 when zoomed in.
The 2nd camera was an iPhone 14 Pro Max. I only used its footage for the water shots (always shown after the Lumix shots are first shot), shot from behind the pool.
