Review: Sensational Performance – A Masterpiece of a Camera - The Panasonic LUMIX S5II is an exceptional piece of engineering. This camera is truly sensational and delivers outstanding results across the board. The image and video quality are exceptional, producing crystal-clear visuals with fantastic colors right out of the box. The new autofocus system is rapid and precise, making both photo and video work incredibly reliable, even in challenging conditions. Ergonomically, the camera is brilliant—it is comfortable to hold for long shooting periods and feels solid and robustly built. For content creators and photographers seeking top-tier full-frame performance, this camera is a 5-star powerhouse and a highly recommended investment.
Review: Spectacular camera - Incredible image quality, both for photo and video. Hard to overstate how nice a camera the S5ii is from both a hardware and usability perspective. The body feels very well constructed and ergonomically is a step above other cameras in a similar price range, (I also own the Sony a7iv). The menus are very well laid out and the ease with which you can assign functions to buttons just by extended press rather than menu diving is a brilliant feature that I wish some other manufacturers would copy. Also, autofocus: it is very good, it doesn’t yet have the versatility of Sony’s AF system, and some of the settings (tracking, I’m looking at you) are poor in comparison to Sony’s equivalent, but it is infinitely better than the DFD system on the original S5 (which I owned until recently). Easily my favourite camera in the price bracket. If you’re looking for a camera that is a true hybrid and you lean possibly slightly more towards creating video content, do not hesitate. Also the IBIS is unreal.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The dogs danglies
*by A***C on 28 November 2024*

Nothing touching this south of 3K. Build quality is still supreme and the firmware support makes it the winner. Auto focus is not a problem like it was in the earlier firmware revisions. Colours are a personal choice but coming from Sony you can imagine how I feel. The buttons are the best of any camera and feel solid and precise. Just a brilliant piece of kit.
