Panasonic LUMIX S5II Mirrorless Camera (DC-S5M2KK) with LUMIX S Series 100mm F2.8 Macro Lens (S-E100)

This camera meets every expectation that I possibly could have had. The build quality and robustness of the menu system is astounding. I had touched a few SONY and CANON cameras the other day in Best Buy and this just is a cut above.I already added a few accessories until my cage arrives but I’m more than happy with the camera. The L-Mount system is full of lens options and then there are lens adapters to use other brands. I grabbed the EF-L mount adapter to accompany the S5.The IBIS is amazing as usual for Lumix cameras and the image quality of the 20-60 kit lens is great. The dual SD card slots is also a great addition and I was already used to that on my G9. I am also surprised that it’s slightly smaller yet slightly THICKER than the G9.I look forward to creating quality content with this bad boy.

Cada día amo más mi cámara lumix s5IIEs una hermosa cámara. Ya muy profesional, 6k. Open gate. Para este precio es una joyita. Si me permite el bolsillo directamente daré un salto al S1II, y este será mi segunda cámara. Pero por el momento es mi adulada, más que mi 6700 de Sony ☺️🙌🏼

my beloved camera, great for almost everything that i need, i'm mostly wedding videographer and i think that is the best camera that i had, i don't really use 60fps so it's not important for me the crop factor.

The media could not be loaded. Después de un par de meses de uso, cada vez me gusta y aprendo un poco mas usando mi Lumix S5ii. El autofocus me ha funcionado el la mayoría de las ocasiones sin problemas. Lo que me gusta es que es una cámara muy configurable en cuanto a opciones en el menu como en "botones" ( tanto para foto como para video) lo que lo hace una tremenda FF por 1500$ , por ahora solo tengo el 50mm F1.8 y lo he notado un super compañero con esta potente Cámara. Me queda seguir aprendiendo y trasteando mas. V-log es algo que agradezco Es mi primera cámara y ha sido una curva de aprendizaje que se disfruta.

So I bought this for myself as a birthday present and man I have not been disappointed I absolutely love this thing, I I've been doing professional photography for about 10 years now and I upgraded from my Canon MK3 to this and it's fantastic, high resolution, amazing features, it's incredibly fast, video quality and choosing a raw still from a video to use as a photo comes out crisp! 10/10 buy this

So many pros:The colors are beautiful and accurate like no othersEasy menu interface and intuitiveHigh-quality buildSmall but perfect with the gripBuilt-in qualitygood lens quality dedicated, not many but enoughThe best price for the level, you can do pro worksProfessional for the price but it has some cons:The battery doesn't last and you will need the battery grip to add one more. Even with the battery, it will have a poor life. don't worry all cameras at this level have the same issue maybe 20% more life.The square form design makes it a little hard to handle for many hours and will make it scratch easily in corners.Caps are rubber-frailHigh ISO pictures are unusable from 51000 and up, or you will need to spend much more on pro lenses to get pro jobs at low lights. f -.8 or less.No high-quality zoom lenses from 200 mm and upLess screen and visor resolution than some dated Panasonic cameras.No 24-105mm f2.8 lens like competitors have.I love it instead it is not perfect.

Excellent Camera, takes great photo and video. All the buttons and dials are in perfect position.

Almost perfect if you don't mind the large size, excellent ISO and video performance, although I'm 95%+ stills photographer, so that's not very relevant for me. The size is also substantial and the resolution 24 megapixels is neither low nor high, so I switched to Fujifilm x-t5 with it's 40 megapixel (I use prime lenses instead of the excellent 24-105 Panasonic zoom) aps-c and I love it! This camera also would be great with prime lenses like the Sigma Art (only available for full frame cameras like this Panasonic and others), they cost about the same price as Fuji's premium f 1.4, but they weigh more so all together the full frame system weighs much more, isn't any cheaper and isn't high resolution, and like Fujifilm also doesn't have shutter flaps that close to protect the sensor when off, but at least the food you feel has ultrasonic sensor cleaning when you turn off the camera. While this camera will work perfectly for some people for a still photographer like myself it is not the best option even though it cost less than the competition, but its weight and it falls short of perfect for a stills photographer because of its focus on video, basically.
