Lumix S5IIx

“Lumix S5 IIx”

“Polar Bear photography and video expedition around Svalbard, Norway with the Lumix S5IIX.”

“Shot on Lumix S5IIX”

“And then I shot the exact same scene with my S52X and Vlog.”

“Again, takes the same batteries, same lenses, and gives me effectively the same image as my S52X.”

“…as most of you know I create my videos with a mixture of an S5 2X and a gh5 and sometimes my little osmo cameras”

“…but for me I use smaller cameras the gh5 the S5 2x those cameras don't really require a tripod this big at least the way that I have them rigged”

“…so I've had both of these cameras for a while now the Lumix S5 2X and the Lumix gh5 and I wanted to make this video as a way to help anyone who is struggling with figuring out which direction they should go as far as camera and lens mount system”

“…my S5 2X and my gh5 both have Mo issues so having a slightly stronger strength is what I usually go for”

“…but now you can actually start grading footage from the osmo pocket 3 and mix it in with cameras like a gh5 or an S5 2x which I've done a lot in the past few months using this camera”

“…so I've used this camera for a little over a year now so I wanted to share some of my thoughts on it using it for YouTube videos spec projects and even some paid gigs”

“The S5 2x autofocus has been updated and everything seems to be working just fine”

“…this opening shot was done with the 18 mm at T 2.1 and the portrait shots were at 35 mm all shot in 4k apsc mode on my S5 2X”

“…in fact this whole video has been a mixture of 80d footage mixed in with my S5 2X and I still think it looks really good”

“…so for the gear that I'll be using on this project I went with some Staples like my S5 2x my godo mic OC monitor and my small rig batteries”

“…this is smaller and lighter than my S5 2X and the lenses for this camera are smaller and lighter as well”

“I found that the same LS I use on my s52 X footage can be used on my gh5 footage with very little tweaking”

“I've been using this little camera as a b-roll camera for like the past month and mixing it in with my S5 2x footage and no one has seemed to notice which is pretty cool”

“So for the camera I used my Lumix S52X and I shot in 6K open gate which I know is probably a total overkill for what I was doing but I wanted the option to crop for vertical so I could give some social media friendly videos for Michaela to use.”

“So, now that I've spent about a month with the S5 2X, I wanted to talk about why I like this camera so much.”
