      Hey Sam, I was thinking about buying an A7IV... however I don't like Sony colors if you don't want to color grade... S5 looks good camera.. could be almost perfect if had a phase AF ;)

      Hey. Yeh that’s the only down side BUT it’s good enough for me and I didn’t think I’d be able to handle it. It’s been great to be fair. Video on how to get the best auto focus settings in a few days so stay tuned for that and it may help. BUT, to be fair, the Sony colours are great if you get the white balance and exposure correct in camera… like any camera really. But it’s a lot more expensive. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻🎥🤩

      One month ago I’ve get S5. Amazing camera for stills and video. For me is also very important that S5 has Anamorphic mode. Lenses are great and light weight. I will remain in this sitem. In the future Panasonic will improve their aoutofocus and that will beat Canon and Sony totaly.

    Love my Lumix S5. Hit's all the marks for me. While I use a rig with follow focus control, the times I need to use AF it's performed well for me and pretty big upgrade in AF performance over the earlier GH5 I used previously. Paired with an external recorder for the 12-bit RAW, this is an amazing setup.

    Awesome! Great to see another RUclips content creator going for the S5!
    I’ve had the S5 for a while and it is actually amazing, for all the reasons you mentioned + the possibility to shoot RAW (which is borderline incredible for such an affordable camera).
    Funnily enough, I use Sony cinema cameras for most of my higher end jobs (FX9, FX6 and FX3), and I do use my trusty A7C for a lot of my RUclips content and anything where I don’t want to worry about autofocus… yet I’m very impressed with my S5’s autofocus performances, and I got to a point where I can really trust it quite a lot.
    I’ve actually shot the talking head portion of a couple of my upcoming YT videos with it and it’s mostly very good.
    Tbh, the S5 got very little love from the day it was launched, probably partly due to a lot of us self filming content creators deeming it’s autofocus borderline unusable at launch (and it was indeed a lot worse before firmware updates), but it is generally much better now to the point that it is totally usable.
    However, if you look at this camera from a filmmakers perspective, this camera offers so much that it’s pretty complicated to dismiss it.
    I’m most certainly still gonna hold on to one Sony hybrid body (because… RUclips), but man… the S5 is defo my camera of choice for anything where I’m not required to work with those (lovely) Sony cinema cameras.

    In terms of build quality the S5 is exceptional whereas the R6 really let me down in very critical work in Fiji during their summer heat. The R6 lcd display in very cold temperatures just like my 5D mk IV goes very dullish. I’m surprised how far behind Canon has fallen behind other players. Kinda sad as I have invested a lot in Canon glass (EF) lenses which are way behind in every aspect to like offerings from Sigma.

    The S5 is a really good choice. But you can get more dynamic range in the R6 if you shoot in clog3 in cinema gamut profile vs clog in 709. That’s a much flatter log, not as much contrast and saturation. Either way you gotta use the tools that are better for you and make your work easier. Great video!

    Very good review. I knew seeing your previous videos the S5 would win! However, the Panasonic S5 has a 4K 50/60p crop. I have the S1 and R6 and the Panasonic is a country mile more video centric than the R6.. but the S1 stays in my bag 90% of the time except when I need 2 cameras for interviews. For the work I do the AF on the R6 is necessary. The S1 AF and 50p crop are the only things that bother me.

      @@SamHolland I use the Sony a lot especially when shooting videos of my kids who run around a lot. But s5 in good lighting is just more beautiful, better color and more filmic in its footage. I bought the s5 after watching many youtubers’ footage. They say its footage rivals midrange cinema cameras, and after using it for over 1 year, I agree. There is something very lovely about the footage.

I'm even learning manual focus and seeing a lot of creative space using that instead but it's a learning curve for sure. No problems with AF photographing though at all! Much love from Sweden!

    Great video as usual Sam. I have an R6 (and a 5DC, R, BMP4KCC, & a6400) and just picked up an A74. I could get by with what I had. But while I love the Canon's colors, even on the 5DC, I do enough video that having two Sony's with no video time limit is worth having the other body. I really like the BMP4KCC, but damn I love dependable autofocus! Now I'm wondering if the 33MP for some activities might make me pick up the A74 more often than my R6 for stills. Eventually, I might dump all my lens adapters and move to one system, but for now, variety is the spice of photography.

    Full frame--yes, slight crop on the S5, but the S5 gives you C4k in several different image envelops---I'm pretty sure the Canon does not have those options.
    Good review, Sam. Yes, Canon AF is better, but for actual film making AF is inferior, and those who get enslaved by it are almost always lazy filmmakers. What they really want is a glorified point and shoot.
    They're welcome to it.
