  1. etherealsam –

    This is an excellent camera. The image stabilization is incredible when paired with a Panasonic lens with image stabilization. Out of the box it takes great pictures, but there are tons of options to optimize the camera. Luckily there are lots of videos on line to show you how to use the different features and people publish configuration files that you can load into the camera to get started. Video is stunning, just make sure you purchase a SD card that can handle the speed.

  2. HobbyCinema –

    Im a Canon guy, but WOWWWWW GH 5 is my new favorite toy. ISO is not that bad, and auto focus once you update the software… problem solve. For the price, you are getting a monster.

  3. Zachary –

    This thing is a beast. 10 bit 4K at 60 FPS nuff said

  4. Davidm –

    This is a great camera all around for the price. Recommend it 100%

  5. Josh –

    I went into debt to purchase this camera and it was absolutely worth it. If you’re considering this, just get it. It’s an amazing all in one camera regardless of what you’re using it for. The only negative is low light, but in reality it sees about as good as you can with your eye. The sensor also allows you to get extra reach out of telephotos from other systems. And you can adapt just about any lens to this system which is amazing.
    Just buy it.

  6. Sambo –

    This is an excellent camera and I will miss the 4K 60… if you are wanting this camera and autofocus Is your priority then I would not recommend it . If you are a manual shooter then I would highly recommend this camera even over the Sony a7iii and over the Sony as7ii… in my opinion autofocus is crucial for gimbal work and that is why I returned this camera and I am now waiting on the Sony a7iii… the only thing I will miss is the 4K footage at 60 frames per second. The a7iii is has way better dependable autofocus that I need and it is getting a lot of hype for alll of the photo and video features … if you are a manual shooter who wants photos and video I would also recommend the a7iii . But like I said if your a manual shooter and are just looking for video features then get the gh5

  7. tcarretti –

    Coming from a GH3, this was an amazing upgrade! So many new features like 4K, IBIS, 6K Photoburst, 180fps at 1080. I could go on and on. Can’t wait to get out there and put it through it’s paces.

  8. Timmy –

    I use this camera every weekend to shoot various events and it has never let me down. 4K 60p internal recording is really nice to be able to slow it down in post!

  9. Brobes –

    I have had my Panasonic GH5 for a year and a half and it Produces by far and away the best footage I have ever had. I’ve also owned 4-5 other cameras and love what it can produce for the price

  10. David –

    this is a game changer camera which really boasts videography

  11. Navin –

    This is my fav camera setup, i use it with the sigma 18-35mm with a speedbooster. I use it for my youtube videos a lot and pair it up with some good hand grip with the battery pack & you will never get disappointed again. I will keep this system for ever until it dies upon me :).

  12. Flanconleche –

    So if ur buying this camera im gonna assume your into making videos, It shoots 4k 10bit 4:2:2 @ 30fps and 4k 60fps 8 bit 4:2:0. It has an amazing gimbal like sensor stabilization. but its biggest flaw is the auto focus, it sucks. still a good camera tho.

  13. Naga –

    If you want to shoot video and also great photos there is no better deal for the money. Overall best product with blue ray quality! highly recommended.

  14. Mabel –

    Love it very nice camera very nice product. That I always do use

  15. estafel –

    So the menu system takes some work to get used to. I came from another Panasonic system so I was already primed for that. It captures amazing video. I am extremely satisfied with the quality of the footage. The only thing I would complain about is that, after a few months of light usage, the lcd display hinge is a bit wobbly. It’s wobbly enough to cause me a bit of fluster when preparing for shots in motion.

  16. Dsure –

    This is the best camera for video that I’ve gotten my hands on. With the new autofocus fix in the latest firmware updates it’s now even better. While the contrast autofocus will never match canon and Sony’s technology it is much improved and far more reliable. And nothing in this price range delivers on image quality like the gh5. Nice solid camera. The pro series adds a lot of weight compared to the semi pro line. But the weight feels good to me and is easily handled by the crane 2 and ronin s gimbles. Endless options to tweak your image. Enjoy working with it and finding your own look or take a shortcut and search for many pros settings posted all over the internet. This camera won’t disappoint. Disclaimer I don’t realoy take photos with this camera and I’m not a photographer. Only work in video. But the pictures I have taken are great by my standards.

  17. Dkalle –

    Amazing cam 4K 60 FPS is amazing especially when bundles with a good lens and a metabones

  18. Jaisyn –

    This is a very good camera but I think the g7 has move value if you plan on using for video.

  19. Fozzy619 –

    This camera has been one of the best mirrorless products!

  20. mjmack95 –

    great addition to my collection… so many cool functions, still working on learning them all.

  21. Chris –

    I like the camera because of its variable framerates and good image stabilization. It works really well with a Metabones Soeedboster.

  22. MrPreneur –

    The GH5 is my number one choice for video production. Can’t find any other camera packed with this many features at this price point

  23. techamech –

    I love this camera and would buy it again! great video quality and lots of features.

  24. Bigrel –

    I really love this camera. 4k and more . Stable footage

  25. Natalie –

    Strictly the best camera for video shooting!!!!!!!

  26. SofG –

    I am a hybrid shooter and being able to take photos and videos is a must. This camera is perfect for that, it lacks a bit on the dynamic range but aside from that having 10-bit color depth and 60 FPS with 4k is a huge upside

  27. TallGuy –

    From shooting remarkable photos to stunning videos at 24 fps, the GH5 is a wonderful camera. The settings allow a beginner to use it with ease, while a professional can tweak it to their liking. Use it to shoot digital cine-quality video comparable to that of a Red camera for one-tenth the cost. It’s just great.

  28. tonycarretti –

    This camera ticks all the boxes for me and it has paid for itself more than a few times already! I love it!

  29. seeKEVINgo –

    There’s a reason most of the top YouTube filmmakers rely on this camera. It really is as good as the hype. For photography it’s honestly middle of the road.

    Only complaint in the high noise floor of the mic input.

  30. Edilio –

    I love this camera. The 4k video it produced is smaller than the Panasonic G85. This camera not only taken great video and have full HDMI output but it takes great picture as well. I missed the built in flash but I bought it for video not photography,

  31. MadLaFamilia –

    The best to get the job done. Whether its photography, a short film or music video.

  32. Kedap7 –

    This camera does so much and the clarity is amazing.

  33. Fern –

    Best value for the money even in 2020 (aside from maybe the pocket 4K) but if you need ibis this is the way to go

  34. john –

    love using this camera for all my video production needs

  35. Karloenrique –

    Great camera for freelance videographers, youtubers, or any one that wants to create great quality content! I’ve done some documentary work with the GH5 before, and it’s a really versatile camera. Highly recommend it!

  36. tomadies –

    I use this for both video and stills, it does everything I need and more! Excellent purchase, well worth the money.

  37. candy –

    the battery life sucks but overall the camera is great.

  38. Techprofessor –

    Wonderful m43 camera — works as advertised // 4K quality

  39. SRL61 –

    Just love it. Nothing bad to say about it. Great video and photography.

  40. floppyMan –

    Solid camera. Honestly I made the best choice between this and the G7. Got it to use for my El Gato 4k Camlink and works well. The body isn’t that heavy and it’s fun to use.

  41. JimE –

    I have had it for about one month now. I love it! Price + plus value works for me any day.

  42. DJPearson –

    Researched this camera for months and can’t be happier now that I have it!

  43. WahajN –

    This camera came out a couple years ago, and still to this day I believe is the best camera money can buy. Under $1500 you get fantastic 4K with robust recording options, anamorphic support, HLG support, and V-Log l. Dual SD card slots is really useful for me as I do backup recording which has saved me on so many occasions. If you add a speedbooster, you can even use ef lenses as well. Battery life is great, I get about 2 hours of C4K recording. This camera is a BEAST.

  44. Doug –

    A great camera, and for video, probably the best there is in its class. I switched over to it from the Canon Vixia 4K, and never looked back.

  45. Recording –

    Great camera. Does videography well. Easy to use inside and out.

  46. GEEKSQUADWARRANTYISAWEFUL –

    The camera was amazing for about a year until a spring in the SD slot broke. Shouldn’t have been a big deal, I had the Geek Squad Warranty. It has been 6 weeks since I dropped off my camera. They have asked me to drive down to my local best buy 3 times, and each time I go they produce more confusion. Instead of simply replacing the camera in the first place they have sent it for repairs, gotten it back un-repaired, sent it to another place for repairs… eventually I got an email saying I “was approved for a replacement” like I won something after all that. The email told me to make an appointment to come pick up my camera. I did. I drove back to my local best buy and they didn’t have my camera. I was there about an hour. At one point the Geek Squad rep asked to see a confirmation on my phone. I pulled it up on my phone and handed it to her. She quickly ran to the back of the store with my unlocked phone and didn’t come back for 20 minutes. I have no idea what she was doing with my data, bank accounts, pictures, social media…. They gave me store credit eventually and ordered me a new camera. They said it would be in their store in about a week and I would get an email asking me to come back again. That would be my forth trip to Best Buy for this broken camera.

    The camera really was great. The Geek Squad warranty I paid for has been a ridiculous mess. All they had to do was replace the camera in the first place, or maybe after the first time they got it back from their repair center and it wasn’t fixed…

    On top of all that, I legally changed my name and gender 2 months ago and after 5 calls, 3 “Chats” and even the manager of the Geek Squad at my local best buy calling Best Buy’s overseas support where they lack the basic language skills to comprehend a name and gender change, Best Buy is unable to “merge” my accounts. I only really had one account. Every time I call or chat with one of their agents they apparently start a whole new account for me for no reason. They can’t tell which is which at this point. I’d just give up on all the accounts but I have warranties with Best Buy for an expensive TV, an expensive espresso machine, my camera that I use for work…. I don’t normally complain when people misgender me, I’m not expecting the world to change around my gender dysphoria. I do expect to be able to use the warranties that Best Buy sold me.

  47. Thomas –

    My 3rd GH5. All are still going strong. Have held up really well filming weddings over the past 5 years.

    4K 10-Bit 30fps recording is amazing and produces life-life video.

    Highly recommend for pro-sumer video recording.

  48. AlexC –

    This was a compromise because we couldn’t afford the s10 but, it is a solid camera with great photos. Video is better than expected. Not the S10 but, happy with the purchase.

  49. user821505 –

    Great for both pictures & videos. One of the best cameras in terms of quality & value.

  50. DarrenD –

    I absolutely love this camera has everything I need for my filming needs
