Pros: Controls, stabilization, sensor, high ISO

Cons: Contrast only autofocus. Embarrassing and annoying in AF C as it moves continuously.

Opinion: A machine that makes sense to be taken with the latest sale prices, otherwise the AF, especially in AF-C does not justify the launch price. For the rest it is well built but love has not been triggered after a year of use. I'm not saying it's not usable but with any lens I find AF-C distressing with continuous and frenetic bumping. If you want to use it only in AF-S it makes sense to take it. I would say that it had some flaws as a machine, otherwise why did it have such a low diffusion on the market?

Price

Pros: Stabilization, ergonomics, customization, computational functions, high iso hold, shadow recovery. PRICE!

Cons: A bit heavier than the competition, I would have preferred a faster burst.

Opinion: In my opinion at the price at which it is found it is new, but above all used it is the car to buy! Especially if you want to upgrade from a pentaprism camera or the first mirrorless. Ok, the autofocus is not perfect and if you are a professional you will surely have something to say about it, but for 99% of users it is even too much! I, for example, who come first from a 5d MK2 then from a Gh4, find it absolutely performing. It is often thought that photos can only be taken with top cameras and instead they are all amateur photographers'. The range of optics is not the widest, but little by little it is expanding, and the optics are all very good, even the 20 60 kit is an excellent lens, resolute and with an interesting focal range. I use computational functions like Startrail a lot and I have to say that these functions should be implemented on all modern cameras. One thing I would have liked is more lightness, but I see that ML is moving more and more towards heavier and larger sizes. The battery in my opinion also has a good life, plus the car is recharged via usb-c so in case of emergency a power bank can always come to our aid.

Pros: Stabilized, image quality, dynamic range, colors, swivel LCD, ergonomics, files, video excellent build quality.

Cons: don't have it

Opinion: purchased new with a pre-Christmas offer at 949,00 EURO !!! Fowa 4 year warranty, buying a full frame at this price new has no rivals, excellent choice finally after so many years I bring home an exceptional camera without breaking the bank, other brands should take an example of how these products are marketed and instead they compete to see who increases the price the most, paying 4000 euros for a Sony is wasteful, The Panasonic S5 does everything and does it very well videos then it is gorgeous, I recommend evaluating this machine before giving money to other brands that I know well, vote 10.

Pros: Dynamic range, ergonomics, image quality, Dual native ISO, tropicalization, stabilization, advanced functions.

Cons: Unintuitive AF, burst

Opinion: Let me start by saying that I am not a professional, but an amateur photographer. I switched to this camera after using a more modern Canon EOS R10 (apsc) for a year, which certainly had a better autofocus and burst, however useless if you don't practice photographic hunting. Despite its qualities, the plasticky construction, the absence of stabilization and the bad images in low light conditions led me to the purchase of this camera which to date in 2024 I find very valid. For my uses (landscapes, portraits, street, travel and children), in reality, this S5 has no real flaws. Learning to manage the autofocus well this turns out to be good enough for all my uses and, even if not at the levels of the S5ii or other competitors, I have never regretted the purchase. The build quality is excellent, the ergonomics and the position of the numerous customizable buttons immediately give an excellent feeling. The sensor is extraordinary, dual ISO and magnificent containment of digital noise, very performing stabilization. I used it in the rain and in the cold, never any problems. I find the High res image functions at 96 mpx and the live composite very comfortable and useful in many contexts. Lately I've also been discovering its qualities in the video sector, which is as excellent as the photographic one. To date, I consider this machine a best buy.

Pros: File quality, dynamic range, versatility and ergonomics.

Cons: AF not always reliable, but nothing dramatic, more limiting the impossibility of deactivating the flash pre-flash.

Opinion: I state that I find the camera excellent in everything, both photo and video side, the only important limit is the inability to disable pre-flash flash, this involves the loss of fractions of a second that sometimes make you lose the moment as well as affecting charging times, the only solution I found is to use the flash in manual mode, losing the convenience of TTL mode.
