Panasonic Lumix GH5 vs Sony RX10 IV

But for us, where does this fit in the video camera world? And i mean the only real drawback to it. I can see is if you need good, continuous autofocu...

They put us up. We are going to review the RX 10 mark 4 So I want to mention Jordan's actually shooting the whole episode on his RX 10 mark 4 as well ...

Almost perfect, the best 4K color depth video camera (prosumer) BUT for the autofocus problems in keeping the main subject in focus. Firmware update to support 4:2:2 in 10bit color is slow and unavailable as of August 2017. Recommend gimble stabilizer even with a LUMIX IS lens.

My daughter was standing still about 15 feet away. We were indoors in medium light. The focus was extremely slow to acquire and unpredictable. Capturing moments requires a camera that has fast and reliable focus, and this camera failed in that area

Now there are some poor lenses too, but if you are willing to pay a little more I have found all of the Panny/Leica and Olympus Zuiko lenses to be very, very good.

Even when set to its faster operation mode, it takes much longer to adjust than you would with a mechanical zoom SLR lens. If you're sitting under the net and a player is driving toward you for a layup or dunk, it's harder to keep them tightly framed than it would be with an SLR lens—you're better off shooting a bit wide and cropping later if you want the whole sequence. Keep this in mind if you need to change the focal length quickly and regularly when capturing sports or similar action.

Love this camera. The stabilization has changed the way I film weddings. It's a thing of beauty to use a 70-200mm lens on a monopod for wedding toasts. The dual card slots is great to have

Canon RP with a kit lens. I have the 24-105mm f/4-7.1 IS STM (its the cheaper of the two RF kit lenses.

A GH5 or G9 is the way to go for you, in my opinion. Unless you’re spending around 3000$/£ or more, full frame makes no sense - you’ll be stuck with one kit lens and you’ll need another grand to get another. In APS-C land, Canon and Nikon have nothing interesting, only the more recent Fuji X series cameras are seriously capable video cameras, but at the price point of a GH5 they’re generally inferior.

If you get your head around the price of this camera you may have found the best bridge camera on the market right. I know that my DSLR's will be staying home when I go on vacation. Less bulk to carry and I won't have to worry about changing lens and missing shots

This camera is a powerhouse for the price. Full disclosure, my first camera was a Panasonic SD camcorder back in 2005, then switched to a Canon Pro camcorder in 2009, then jumped on the Panasonic train again with the GH3 and was using them until I picked up the GH5. The image is amazing, but that's not news. What is news - and hopefully will not be overlooked - is how much this camera is amazing to use

So another thing that the RX 10 mark 4 has is the touch screen So now it's a three inch screen. It articulates pretty good It doesn't fully articulate...

The zoom as an all-round lens and the 85mm as a close-up when the zoom is used wide-angle. I don't think overheating will be a problem as interviews don't go longer than 30-45min either. With my old equipment I'm used to stopping recording after 30min, changing memory cards and batteries and then filming again briefly. Autofocus is also usable here and resolution for photos is optimal

If you need low light, go with the DSLR setup, if you need the much longer zoom range of the Camcorder (Sports), you should probably go with that.

This is an amazing little package that can give cameras 4 times more expensive a run for their money. The Lumix DC-GH5 is blurring the lines between prosumer and professional with features like 4k at 60p, 10-bit 4:2:2 recorded internally, plus many more. Future firmware updates will blur those lines even further with a 400Mbp/s bit rate codec! This is an exciting camera that will give you stunning photos and videos (admittedly more on the video side). A must own for the aspiring photographer/filmmaker on a budget

Believe it or not this camera actually comes pretty close to professional level use. I was super impressed by it and this lens has tons of other cool ...
