Easily the very best micro four third camera
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used to own the Panasonic GH2, GH3, GH4 and now the GH5 and every model up was quite an improvement in all aspects and this one is no exception. This is easily the very best micro four third camera you can buy. Don’t listen to the bad reviews regarding the autofocus; autofocus is working just fine on this camera and actually it is improved over the GH4. I very much like the slightly larger (about 10%) body, on all the previous models I used to have a battery grip attached just so I can hold it better and have a better grip on the camera but so far it seems I don’t need a battery grip at all for the GH5. I mainly use this camera for shooting real estate with the Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 7-14mm, this combination produces outstanding picture quality and videos with in camera body stabilization.

The best pro-sumer camera out there, hands down.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The GH5 has it all, everything a professional videographer needs within an acceptable consumer price range. The 4K 4:2:2 at 10bit is unmatched at this price point, and the catalog of usable lenses on the GH5 is incredible. While the extra crop factor can be a bit of a nuisance at times, the quality output from this Panasonic gem is worth the annoyance. Very solid build, full-size HDMI output, WiFi, rotating touch screen, customizable button map... it has everything! Highly recommend getting the Vlog color profile as well.

great video capture
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So the menu system takes some work to get used to. I came from another Panasonic system so I was already primed for that. It captures amazing video. I am extremely satisfied with the quality of the footage. The only thing I would complain about is that, after a few months of light usage, the lcd display hinge is a bit wobbly. It's wobbly enough to cause me a bit of fluster when preparing for shots in motion.

Yes yes yes
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got the gh5 with high expectations based off reviews seen online and off of the amount I was going to pay for it. Definitely worth the money and everything I expected. I switched from Nikon (although I still use my Nikon for photo). I do have one warning if you plan to still use Nikon lens and are getting a metabones... the auto focus won't work with Nikon. So I had to start buying canon lens . But the camera is still great

The best
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the best camera for video that I’ve gotten my hands on. With the new autofocus fix in the latest firmware updates it’s now even better. While the contrast autofocus will never match canon and Sony’s technology it is much improved and far more reliable. And nothing in this price range delivers on image quality like the gh5. Nice solid camera. The pro series adds a lot of weight compared to the semi pro line. But the weight feels good to me and is easily handled by the crane 2 and ronin s gimbles. Endless options to tweak your image. Enjoy working with it and finding your own look or take a shortcut and search for many pros settings posted all over the internet. This camera won’t disappoint. Disclaimer I don’t realoy take photos with this camera and I’m not a photographer. Only work in video. But the pictures I have taken are great by my standards.
