Still got the “Display” button in an place where it gets tripped accidentally
The Panasonic Lumix GH4 proved to be a runaway success when it was released back in 2014, so Panasonic certainly had a tough act to follow with the new GH5. They've evidently spent the three intervening years hard at work, as the GH5 represents a big...
10Bit 4:2:2 DCI 4K, No additional crop when shooting in 4K, Long battery life
Menu is not organized well, Low Light Performance
The Panasonic Lumix GH5 is a feature rich camera. It shoots 10-bit 4:2:2 DCI 4K video and doesn't need a lens with image stabilization to get a steady shot. Overall the GH5 is a good value and well worth considering.RECOMMENDED USERS:Documentarians & Indi...

The Panasonic GH5 is a camera oriented at videographers, and includes features often found on more expensive pro video gear. It captures video at up to 4K/60p resolution, including 4:2:2 10-bit color up to 4K/30p, and has useful tools like waveforms and b...
Abstract: For those wanting to step up from entry-level to midrange ILCs, there are many things to consider, including the choice between a DSLR or mirrorless camera, what sensor size suits you best, how important video is to you, and of course the lens system.Whil...
