I Tried Vlogging With LUMIX S5II (Better Than Sony?)

I might have just found the best camera for vlogging on YouTube. I have been looking for a new full frame vlogging camera and was trying to decide between Sony vs Panasonic Lumix vs Canon. After doing a lot of research, there was a clear winner on paper: The Panasonic Lumix S5ii (There is also a Panasonic Lumix S5IIX). However, the Panasonic lumix s5 ii vs Sony for vlogging on paper is one thing, but how does it actually perform? This is my Panasonic Lumix S5ii camera review. I had questions, is the lumix s5ii good for video? Is lumix s5ii better value? Is the Panasonic lumix s5 ii best camera for vlogging? How Good Is The Panasonic Lumix S5 ii in 2024 For Vlogging? Am I happy with my vlogging set up? is the Lumix s5ii or s5iix better than Sony for vlogging?

Well, there is only one way to find out... a Panasonic Lumix S5 ii vlog test. Today I take my new camera out around the beautiful island of Madeira, Portugal to put it through its paces. I test out the Panasonic Lumix S5 ii autofocus. Test out the incredible Lumix stabilisation and I try and answer whether it is the best camera for vlogging in 2024.

So, join me as I take my new Lumix S5ii camera out for a real life test! Let's explore the amazing features of the Panasonic Lumix S5ii and how it enhances my vlogging experience. Enjoy this vlogging camera review.

This isn't sponsored, I wish it was... I bought the camera out of my own money.

What do you think of the new camera? (minus my mistakes)

[PheepSheep]

That’s quite a difference in video quality! Would love to see more behind the scenes / tech videos

[UniquelyMary]

I normally watch camera channels but yours popped up. The video looks great!!!! I have an S9 and also enjoy it much!! Hope your channel grows!!!

[Valkyrie_SDS]

By far the best review of the camera presented in a different and real way.

[ChristopherDikiy-hm]

Thanks for sharing and owning your failures with your very compassionate viewers. We have been waiting for you to step up your YouTube vlogging game for a long time. You are now amongst the YouTube Gods, Mark and Gary. Seriously, great video. What a fantastic and beautiful place to "test" a new kit. Well done!

This video made me a subscriber.
Many thanks for your great content and especially for this video of the camera which sits very high on my wishlist.

[TwoTimesRmedia]

I have the S5iix . Same sensor and same quality. I love the quality of the Lumix sensor

[Hulalulatallulahoop]

Yay, you're back in Madeira! I can get my Madeira fix again, lol! I did love the Cruise vlogs though, I have to say! Gorgeous camera! Never had a Lumix camera as I've always had Nikon, lol. At the 12.25 mark you had a Ladybird on your shirt, lol....cute!

[yeshashing]

Good quality videos and even audio is nice. So happy for you for the upgrade 😊

[rapbisnar]

Listening to your “why you chose this camera” portion, I think the s9 would’ve been a fantastic option. Hope you’re enjoying the s5ii!

Best S5II review out there!
Since it's been almost 6months since you bought this, how did this fare for you so far?
Do you still enjoy this? Or any quirks you don't like?

[chrisfigley]

You won't regret moving to Lumix/Panasonic! Awesome cameras 🎉

[maxf]

Good news Joe. You will continue to post awesome vlogs.

[icehousemedia]

Finally someone who is as excited about the S52 as i am. I have the X; but using it for some professional work, also super happy.. Can't wait to see some cool Maderia Vlog shots once you dialed in the nd filter.. 🙂✌

"This content was sponsored by Panasonic" lol! 🤣
Thanks Joe, I could see the love you have for the new lady in your life & I know she's a keeper! 📷😉❤
I'd definitely consider a wide angle lens because I have a similar lens to yours for my camera, & it times I've found it not wide enough.
I really could notice the difference in the general image quality compared to old, yes a definite increase!
I'm sorry to hear your old tripod is suffering from erectile dysfunction, but it happens to the best of us lol! 😋
I wish I had a sister who would deliver expensive items to me! Bravo Sophie for your performance! I hope it didn't take much to talk her into appearing in the video? Yes we'd love to see more of her!
Have an amazing week my friend 🤗

[Chinte]

Honestly an amazing video quality bump I love it

[pureheartvisuals]

Thought so much of it for my paid work that now I have 4 plus an S9 😂. Incredible cameras. The S5 II is one of those cameras you just have to stop trying to convince people of and just enjoy the quality & value for yourself.

[Studiotek]

I think you had "Boost IS" turned on, which is what caused the wobbly effect. Boost IS is only for when you are standing still. It's supposed to emulate a tripod.

Other than that, awesome job!! The camera is amazing! What do you think of it now that it's 4 months later?

[StevesRealReviews]

What is our audio set up? What mic? Great video and the audio was great.

[nigel]

Awesome camera. BBC broadcast quality. (Part 3)
Hope you're well.
