Quick update... Shortly after making this video, i ended up buying both the s5ii and s5iix. I loved the s5iix for my use-case, that i returned the s5ii and kept the s5iix
I guess I am in the same boat as you. Older cameras are still good. I still use a gh4 and gh5. I do enjoy seeing how far these cameras have come though. Very good review. One of these days I may upgrade again.
I’m not sure if I notice a difference in the image quality between the s5 and the s5ii. I will say that I definitely notice a difference with the s5iix. I just got it and it is insanely nice
@@KevinLe You need to view your videos at 1:1 to see the difference. Even on the S5IIX, the sharpening and details filtering are much worse with the standard profiles. On V-Log, the details are better but still not as good as on the first S5. If you use BRAW, the image is great though.

I love my S5 ii. Great video!
It's such a great camera! I'm glad that they finally decided to get away from that DFD and embrace Phase-Detect Autofocus
Thoughts on the Panasonic S5ii or S5iiX? What do you think would be a better camera for the price and why?
Buying for photography and maybe a tiny bit of video.
Awesome! What kind of photography do you mainly do?
@@KevinLe mainly street hoping the sigma 35mm f2 makes it a smaller package. It’s being delivered tomorrow
I think that’s a really good choice of lens. Super duper sharp. I think the sweet spot for the lens is f/3.5 so you’ll have some amazing shots with it
@@KevinLe thanks I’m usually around f5.6 to f8. Should be perfect

Right? The gh5 was the camera that really took me to another level. Another reason why I chose lumix
If you don't need the fast AF of the S5II, the S5 is better, the image quality is nicer.

Cheers much
Female footage was very shakey though
Yeah man. It's comparing IBIS on and Off
