A good product at a good price, I advise you to try it.

Very happy with the camera. With its pros. The camera lies perfectly in the hand, a heavy metal case. All the necessary buttons are placed on the body - ISO, white balance, exposure compensation, autofocus settings. This is very convenient, especially when you shoot with gloves in winter - you donโ€™t need to poke frozen fingers at the screen. The image quality pleases - there are no complaints about it. As for the whale lens, the image quality is good, the lens feels solid and high qualityโ€ฆ

Very high quality product, it's not the first time I bought it.

It was time to switch from 6D + 24-105. Since I am an amateur, I need a full frame and all in one and less weight. Total chose S5 kit after they gave a discount + 50 / 1.8 as a gift. All together it cost 175,000. The choice was between: 6R is more expensive. Sony has more lenses and they are a bit cheaper. But for some reason, no. Chose because of the matrix "S5 uses the same 24MP sensor as S1 with S1H" BUT S1H is approved by Netflix. Therefore, the picture with even hands will be modern).

Pros
  • Matrix full frame. Focus on the eyes in backlight - works). The video quality is impressive. Autofocus in video works almost like on small matrices) Comfortable grip. Light weight. Surprisingly good whale 20-60. Both for photos and videos.
Cons
  • Price

Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

This is the best camera among its class, despite the fact that I bought it in the USA, and there is no menu in 2022, it's not difficult to figure it out. On the one hand, the camera is full of chips, on the other hand, everything is accessible for the amateur to understand. I took it mainly for video, only this camera can shoot in 4K 60 fps, though not a full frame, but this is quite enough. Autofocus sometimes jumps, but adjusts quickly, and this is mainly in poor lighting and blurry objects.

Pros
  • Photo/video quality
Cons
  • Expensive optics

Almost done Panasonic

Well I bought this camera because I currently have a Panasonic G7 and I really wanted to upgrade it. not too heavy, the materials are very well made. The picture was great, you could definitely see good depths and HD in videos, the image stabilization works very well. I tested this camera with and without the gimbal, you could shoot handheld easily and you had perfectly smooth videos and the kit lens was amazing, can't say anything negative about it. And if Cameron had a good profile union then

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

Amazing camera, questionable sale

I really like this camera and in the $2k-$2.5k price range I think it's the best. I usually switch between Nikon and Sony so it was like an amazing mix of both (with autofocus being the only quality worse than both). All in all, for feature film making, travel films, vlogs that don't have autofocus issues in rapidly changing light conditions or subjects, general photography (except maybe sports if you're unfamiliar with 6K burst shooting) this is an amazing all -in- round. The kit lens is alsoโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • No performance

Panasonic, Focus please

This camera is great considering the price and the features it offers. If you are a pro or semi-pro and focus manually most of the time, up to 2k will make your dream come true. It's got all the bells and whistles a pro shooter needs: 4k 10bit 4:2:2, 5.9k external recording, Vlog, CineD, every penny of customization options, a beautiful fully articulating screen, pretty much everything its big brother S1H Has. IBIS is ok (not as good as S1H) and you have an integrated vlog. BUT, BUT, BUTโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
