The 24.2-megapixel 35mm full-frame CMOS sensor complies with PDAF (Phase Detection Auto-Focus), with Active I.S.to support walking shots, and an imaging engine that’s been developed to achieve high resolution, natural description, and approximately 2x higher-speed signal procession for high bit-rate video recording. With the high dynamic range and broad colors of a 14+ stop V-Log/V-Gamut capture, and an advanced heat dispersion mechanism for unlimited video recording, the S5II is developed to meet the demands of ambitious creators with an assertive shooting style.

Good for the price, 5 star but
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.

Great image quality!
Great feel! Lots of features that can be customized to your preferences.EVF can be a little jittery in low contrast settings and photo review takes second to display. Focusing can be improved by selecting Quick Focus in the menu. Eye focus for animals and humans works well.

Excelente Producto
Es una cámara espectacular, tanto para fotografÃa como para video. Indudablemente habÃa leÃdo varias reseñas sobre la misma, pero hasta no tenerla entre mis manos, un poco dudaba. Ahora estoy convencido que compré un excelente producto.

Value for money
Excellent camera with many features.. could use an even smaller body. Picture quality is good. Need to have some skills to use. High resolution videos needs rather strong computer setup to process.

Easy learning curve.
Works as it should. Excellent. I have no issues with the crop.

A Bit big
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.

Nice, east-to-use, video camera
I have a few video cameras, mostly intended for serious use and requiring the videographer to make most adjustments manually. What I wanted was something with more automation that would work well for situations in which I didn’t want to spend a lot of time setting the camara’s parameters for the particular shooting situation. I also wanted something that worked reasonably well hand held without a gimbal. Ths fits the bill. I haven’t put it through all of its paces but both the autofocus and image stabilization seem to be a cut above what’s available in similar cameras at a comparable price point. Also the size and form factor make it an easy and incospicuous camera to operate. The image quality is also quite good, with natural-looking colors and proper saturaton.As I said, I haven’t used it yet in highly demanding situations. But from what I’ve seen so far, I feel that I can safely recommend this camera for shooting very good quality videos without the need for a lot of ancillary equipment to assist with focusing or image stabilization. If I couldn’t lug a tripod or set up a camera cage with a wireless focus pull motor and were shooting a non-stationary subject, this would easily be my choice from among the several cameras I own. That’s not to say that it wouldn’t work well on a tripod or gimbel (sits relatively mall size is a great advantage here) or fitted out with a cage and attachments. But those things really aren’t as necessary for this cameras as they are for some other high-quality video cameras.My five-star rating is qualified by the fact that I haven’t had the camera very long or used it across a wide range of situations. So I can’t say that it works magnificently in every scenario or that it will last nearly forever. But I don’t know that those things aren’t true, either. And based on what it has been used for so far, it does just what I want.

My first camera and I love everything about it
This camera came heavily recommended by so many people and I have to say im very happy with it. While I have no way to compare to other cameras in this price range I haven’t found myself wanting more that this camera doesnt offer. It has great video features and takes beautiful photos.. Im not even good and getting good quality pictures.Camera stabilization features are very good and everything from the construction and feel of the camera is quality. Theres are lot to love but I do have a few problems that i havent quite figured out how to address. -I have made a lot of configurations but I just cant get them to get saved. I have to constantly load my settings every time I turn on the camera and its really nuisance. Luckily the menu always stays on load when its prompt.-The camera gives features to lock all functions but only when recording.. would be nice if you could do it while photographing. Not sure how to do it if it isnt the case. I read the whole guide and didnt find anything on how to address this issue.

An great, all in one, hybrid full frame camera. Excellent build quality and really comfortable to hold. I don’t have anything negative to say about the camera. It does everything well – great pictures and fantastic video. Lots of flexibitliy with video, although I mainly shoot photos. Highly recommend.

La encontré en una promoción fugaz de Amazon el cuerpo por 27,000 mxn y simplemente es la mejor compra que he hecho.Tiene un rango dinámico espectacular y graba hasta 6K30p sin recorte.El problema que no lo considerarÃa como tal es la limitación momentánea de los lentes, pero con la alianza Lumix-Leica-Sigma-DJI pronto podremos disponer de más lentes a mejor precio.

Just get it, if you’re like me you’re on the fence between this or the Sony (insert all variations and prices) for the price vs what you get in this camera it really is amazing. I’ve had this for over 2 months and I honestly love this camera. the kit lens is great and sharp as hell, very usable focal range.

Hands down the best camera for the price currently on the market. Only downside is cropped 4k 60fps but that’s expected at this price point. The dual native iso produces NO noise in the shadows and the image can be pushed super far in post with restoring highlights and boosting up shadows. Blown away at the versatility of the image and the dynamic range. If you have a GH5 or GH6 this is the worthwhile upgrade to full frame. Zero issues with this camera and I’ll be using it for many years to come as my A-cam on all commercial productions.
