Panasonic LUMIX S5II Mirrorless Camera, 24.2MP Full Frame with Phase Hybrid AF, New Active I.S. Technology, Unlimited 4:2:2 10-bit Recording - DC-S5M2BODY Black

I bought this for myself as a BD present, after using a Canon R50 for one year and a half. It is a bit heavy (using the 24-60 F2.8 from Lumix), but the image quality is 10/10. I have been using it for 4 days, and I love it.

I've been doing photography since 1991. Started on a pentax, moved to a Canon. For video I use Blackmagic Cameras. I still use my Blackmagic but moved to the L Mount on Lumix. It does an amazing o woth taking stills and is a beast at doing pro video. I especially love the advanced auto-focus features. it's greta for recording yourself for YouTube sicne you can swing the monitor out to see yourself.

Delivered in good condition, but you have to update the software to enjoy the experience.

LUMIX makes quality cameras that are a great value. The auto focus is better on the s5 II than on the s5. With a kit lens the weight is manageable for a hike or a video shoot . There are plenty of lens options for L Mount.

I purchased this camera back in May 2025. I wanted something within the l-mount series and fell in love with Panasonic’s line. I’ve shot about 10 weddings and 3 engagement session with it. With it being super light weight, wedding days have felt so much easier on the wrist. Battery life is great, ~3-4 hours on each battery with constant use. It’s small, in a good way, and functions exactly how I need it to. It feels durable. Super beginner and pro friendly. I recommend the 35mm 1.8 from the Lumix line.

Excellent Camera, takes great photo and video. All the buttons and dials are in perfect position.

Almost perfect if you don't mind the large size, excellent ISO and video performance, although I'm 95%+ stills photographer, so that's not very relevant for me. The size is also substantial and the resolution 24 megapixels is neither low nor high, so I switched to Fujifilm x-t5 with it's 40 megapixel (I use prime lenses instead of the excellent 24-105 Panasonic zoom) aps-c and I love it! This camera also would be great with prime lenses like the Sigma Art (only available for full frame cameras like this Panasonic and others), they cost about the same price as Fuji's premium f 1.4, but they weigh more so all together the full frame system weighs much more, isn't any cheaper and isn't high resolution, and like Fujifilm also doesn't have shutter flaps that close to protect the sensor when off, but at least the food you feel has ultrasonic sensor cleaning when you turn off the camera. While this camera will work perfectly for some people for a still photographer like myself it is not the best option even though it cost less than the competition, but its weight and it falls short of perfect for a stills photographer because of its focus on video, basically.

Just the right size.

An great, all in one, hybrid full frame camera. Excellent build quality and really comfortable to hold. I don't have anything negative to say about the camera. It does everything well - great pictures and fantastic video. Lots of flexibitliy with video, although I mainly shoot photos. Highly recommend.

La amo mucho. Tiene unas capacidades increíbles y permite hacer de todo, y además el v-log de lumix es uno de los mejores. Los colores que logras son preciosos. Y tiene muchas funciones que en cámaras el doble de caras te dan como premium. La mejor opción, no sólo por barata, sino por excelente. Además, panasonic sigue actualizando el software y ha metido muy buenas mejoras; y tiene decenas de funciones que te hacen la vida muchísimo más fácil para grabar video y para fotografía. Igual la conseguí en una oferta por 27mil, a ese precio, nada mejor. Y ya hay muchas opciones de lentes, y en amazon jp están más baratos ;)

La encontré en una promoción fugaz de Amazon el cuerpo por 27,000 mxn y simplemente es la mejor compra que he hecho. Tiene un rango dinámico espectacular y graba hasta 6K30p sin recorte. El problema que no lo consideraría como tal es la limitación momentánea de los lentes, pero con la alianza Lumix-Leica-Sigma-DJI pronto podremos disponer de más lentes a mejor precio.

Hands down the best camera for the price currently on the market. Only downside is cropped 4k 60fps but that's expected at this price point. The dual native iso produces NO noise in the shadows and the image can be pushed super far in post with restoring highlights and boosting up shadows. Blown away at the versatility of the image and the dynamic range. If you have a GH5 or GH6 this is the worthwhile upgrade to full frame. Zero issues with this camera and I'll be using it for many years to come as my A-cam on all commercial productions.

Increible equipo, superó totalmente mis espectativas
