The Lumix S5IIX is an extremely capable camera that can deliver many Codecs both internally and externally. I wanted to build this Lumix S5IIX cine handheld rig to accommodate both ProRes via SSD and ProRes RAW via HDMI.

Hope you like this video, and thanks for watching!

*Apologies for the sub-par audio in this video! Echoey room and wrong gain settings for the transmitter kit!*

What do you guys think of this setup? What would you change?

[MicroFourNerds]

It looks so pretty! I’m definitely a fan of the more minimal rigs these day. You can go mad with it all can’t you

Another great rig build video Josh, love that you are still using our filters & wonderful to hear thank you 😍

[Brazen_Rebel]

Love the build. Doing something similar with my G9ii except I just returned the tilta S5iix cage in favor of the Nitze cage for S5IIX because the curved top right design of the tilta cage partially blocks the WB button and sort of forces you to use your thumb to hit the record button, which means I have to lift my palm. Plus no mounting options. If you're ever looking into a new setup for your S5iix strongly recommend the Nitze cage. It takes the best features from the tilta and smallrig cages and combines them, plus universal compatibly with all NATO clamp styles. Cheers! As a new Lumix user, Love your content. Oh, also .. I just got the S5IIX cage from Dark Power Labs... That thing is so sick, you should take a look at it.

Hey Josh, I would add the tilta side battery focus handle on the left. This would take care of SSD mounting, provide battery for the monitor, power and control a tilta nano and give much better stability to the camera. With that lens, it would be perfect.

Thanks for the vid, I’ve got a basic set up at the moment on the s5iix. You’ve added about £4K of kit here! Great video but beyond my budget.

[CorneliusCreations]

Thank you for this video, Josh! I used your past videos for my S5 rig build. I am going to watch this a few times so I can get a better idea of how to right my S5ii!

[herenow]

Absolutely love the utility of this rig, thanks!

[AlexBellini]

Production vibe in this video is different.... I love it!!

[FDFchannel]

hello. Do you know if i can power camera or monitor via usbc powerbank? i use a little osee monitor

[OCAIOF]

Nice rig! I love the small and compact vibe!

[MajorLeageSchill-vupe]

Why do you use a 85mm prime over say a 50mm prime? Just learning thank you

[true_n_thusiast]

I love this rig. Its actually very similar to how I have my s5ii set up! Quick question though.. What exact lens and lens adapter are you using here? I would love to know so I can consider for my set up! Thank you!

[EdProsser]

Nice rig man! I might have to pick up the tilta mirage at some point

[joshuacook]

I wanted to ask how are you providing power to cam and monitor? Just batteries?

[Seph_vision]

Ninja comparable to the Black magic assist? Is the raw the same quality?

[rodrigo-r-pereira]

Hi, Josh.!The Ninja V seems to record up to 10bit. For 12bit recording you need Ninja V +. Do you confirm this? None of the videos I've seen specify the Ninja V +...

[ThiCityProductions]

What’s your take on external dummy battery components?
