One Camera to Rule Them All?
I will update this review as time goes on. At this point I have only experimented with the camera for several hours, but I already have enough information to form a solid foundation for a review (I have also used the GH4 for a few years). I run a small video production company, and for years I have used the GH4 for capturing high quality video. The problem is that every video shoot also requires several high quality/professional photographs. While the GH4 excelled in capturing video as a true camera it always came up short. As a result, I was always forced to lug my Nikon D750 around with me. I would travel with two cameras, and two sets of lenses. Occasionally, I would substitute the Nikon for my Fujix100T or I would substitute the GH4 for my Osmo Pro (recently it has been more of the later). What I need... want... would love .... is camera to do all of it. I guess I could invest in the FF Sony, but the idea of investing in a 3rd set of lenses doesn't exactly excite me. At some point.... either the video on the Olympus will come up... or the photo stills on the Panasonic will improve...right? Based on my tests - I think the GH5 will become my Holy Grail of cameras. I have 0% doubt that it will perform for video (and my the couple of tests I have run look very favorable), but my worry was IQ. The new 20.3MP resolution has me hopeful that the GH5 will become my one camera for all purposes. Photos - Again - I will update this as time goes on - The upgraded sensor seems to make a large difference.In the photos I attached the 1st picture was taken at ISO 400 while the rest were at ISO 1600. Frankly, I always got nervous taking my GH4 above ISO 800 the noise and grain really started to become noticeable. The GH5 looks very usable at ISO 1600 ( I need to check ISO 3200 a little closer). For full disclosure the ISO 1600 shots were taken with the Panasonic Leica f1.2 42.5mm gem of a lens. This is a good point for a tangent,. The reason why i like the MFT format (in addition to the cameras being physically smaller) there are some very excellent lenses out there. I would stack the Olymous Zuiko lenses up against the branded Nikon lenses any day of the week. In addition, ignoring the difference in focal length my Panasonic/Leica f1.2 42.5 rivals my Otus f1.4 55mm for my Nikon (plus it has vibration reduction AND autofocus - eat your heart out Sigma). These high quality lenses are smaller and cost less than their full frame rivals to boot. Now there are some poor lenses too, but if you are willing to pay a little more I have found all of the Panny/Leica and Olympus Zuiko lenses to be very, very good. Other notes - - If you shoot in RAW and use Lightroom you will have to update to 6.9. - The autofocus really is improved. It is very fast on the point. - Has the ability to do focus stacking - I haven't tried this yet - but it is a very interesting function. - Shooting manual is a breeze - I am not sure why Nikon can't copy Panasonic's focus peaking, but if they could... they should. I mentioned I owned the Otus f1.4 55mm.... that lenses would be soooooo much more useful if Nikon offered a similar type of focus peaking. - Low light performance - others may disagree, but I do think that it is better than the GH4. I have very good stills at ISO 1600. However, this might be a counter-intuitive since Panasonic is using the same sized sensor but increasing the resolution. In order for the camera to have better low light performance and higher resolution would require either significantly better algorithms and/or improvements on the actual sensor gathers the light. - Button placement and layout are still very solid. it is easy to navigate WB and ISO settings without moving your eyes (much more difficult on my Nikon D750). - No built in flash. Honestly, I can not remember the last time I used a built in flash. - The camera is not too much larger than the GH4, but it is noticeably heavier. This camera is dense, and while it still has an advantage over my full frame it's losing ground here. Video- - My early footage is excellent. The continuous autofocus is improved (although I do need to run a lot more tests on this one). I loved shooting footage with my GH4, but I usually filmed in manual focus. I never fully trusted the GH4 autofocus - it seemed to spend too much time searching. - The ability to shoot at 180 FPS (you have first select a variable frame rate to get into this menu). - Out of the box it will allow you to record 10 bit straight to SD card (I recommend the new high transfer rate cards). - Image stability - I am very excited for the improvements - but I definitely need to do a lot of testing to see how it really performs. - In short... for video the GH5 will do everything that GH4 will do, but it adds the ability to capture 10 bit footage directly to a SD card, offers weather protection, and in-body stabilization - The screen and viewfinder are excellent. Final Verdict - Again, I will have to update this review - there is MUCH still to be covered (especially for video). However, the early results are very promising and I do believe that Panasonic has made a significant improvement in IQ over the GH4. I may be naive, but I just ASSUMED it would be great for video (minor improvements in the GH4 would have helped maintain its status). The GH5 is roughly double the price of the GH4 so you will need to understand if the photo improvements and the upgrades in video are really worth it to you. For me... it is a no-brainer.... and I am optimistic that for now on I will be carrying just one camera with me! 5 Stars

Still works since I bought it in 2017
I bought the Gh5 in 2017 and have shot tons of videos on YouTube with it. It is still in perfect condition and I use it now as a B-cam. It not a perfect camera if you depend on auto-focus but it works for product reviews in a controlled environment.

Love this beast! Amazing Versatile! Loaded with features!
The LUMIX GH5 is a dream come true! Panasonic has hit a huge home run with this camera! Cinema 4K recording at 24fps internally! 4K at 60fps 8bit 150mps internally! 400mps with update coming soon! 180fps in full 1080 FHD internally! The slow motion on this camera is buttery smooth! The size and grip is fantastic! What it's raining out? No problem this camera with the Leica 12-60mm lens is water resistant! It's also free resistant for shooting in low temperatures! Battery life is way better than the Sony's but not as good as the GH4 with how fast this camera processes it uses more juice. So be sure to pick up some spare batteries. Dual memory cards that can be hot swapped so you can continue constant recording with no overheating! Very grainless recording up to 1600 ISO. With additional purchase you can shoot in VlogL with a dynamic range of 12 stops when shooting at a native ISO of 400. Internal audio level meters, very good mic for this size of camera onboard. Zebras, focus assist, waveform and vector scope meters are all onboard. There are many customizable buttons and the view finder flips out, up, down and forward toward the lens is super bright and clear and also a touchscreen! The menus are very easy to navigate and well thought out! There is now 5 axis image stabilization on the sensor and if you are using a lens like the Leica 12-60mm it has power IOS. So you get two levels of stabilization working together. What does that mean? That means you can walk and record rock steady video! There has been a lot of controversy over the autofocus but I have found if you put it on either face detect or single point and press the shutter half way down to get it to lock on first it works very well. All in all this is an amazing camera for the price! For all the features and how well this works in the field I'd be happy if I spent twice the price! Go create something amazing!

1 year with the GH5
Panasonic has to do 1 thing and only 1 thing right. Just 1 thing, Ok 1 thing only. AUTOFOCUS! This camera isn't a beginner camera by any stretch. I have learnt to LOVE this camera, however, it's a nightmare if you plan on making your life easy with autofocus. However, this camera has taught me to be a better videographer as I manual focus everytime. The flip out touch screen is the best in it's class. The colours and VLOG are dreamy and better than Sony A7iii. While I am reasonably happy with the camera, I would still prefer Sony over this for that autofocus option but then Sony's need to get one thing right - flip out screen. Never a perfect camera is there?

Grey Market product
1/2 hr ago I received this camera from Amazon.ca and sold by "123easyship". I became very suspicious about the product when I saw the box with all the bar code information on it covered by white stickers. Very disappointed to discover that the "Limited Worldwide Warranty" that came with the camera clearly reads that the warranty is only valid if the product was purchased in Panama, Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Peru and Chile. Buyers beware. The product is new and arrived in an unopened box. I will write a more extensive review once the battery is charged and the camera is operational.

Absolutely love it
The design and construction of the body are excellent, the build quality is superb, and everything feels like it's in the right place. With the exception of the placement of the DISP button, I love so much about this camera. From numerous video options, to decent still performance, to customizability of the controls - it's a great choice for hobbyists or pros. There are plenty of complaints or negatives about the autofocus, but since the v2.4 firmware, it's greatly improved. While it can't compete with dual-pixel focussing, it can still hold its own and has many other merits over similarly priced bodies. 2020 Update: It's been a year since my review and my rating stands. I've found some things I'd wish this camera did, but doesn't (eg. charge or self-power over the USB-C connector, or the function to use it as a webcam - a vital tool for COVID-times), and many things that this camera DOES but the competition still has troubles doing in their latest and greatest models (such as not overheating when filming in 4K!) This is still a video powerhouse in 2020 and the still-photo capabilities are solid for the price.

Great mirrorless camera, especially for video
I am a professional photographer who got into videography fairly recently (within the last year or so) and while the camera I shoot photos with records in 4K, I really wanted a camera that would shoot in 4K/60FPS based on the types of things I shoot. In the end my decision came down to either the GH5 or GH5s, both of which can shoot 4K60 - but the primary differences between them (for me) were that the GH5 had spectacular in-body axis stabilization which the GH5s lacks, while the GH5s performs extremely well in low-light which is an area where the original GH5 struggles a bit. Eventually I went with the GH5 over the GH5s - for me, the stabilization was (and has been) much more important than the low-light performance and so I'm really glad I chose the GH5. The articulating rear LCD screen is great (it's also nice that it's a touchscreen) and has so many useful applications for shooting video. The battery life for this camera seems good to me - with a fully-charged Panasonic battery I can probably get about 2-3 hours of on-and-off shooting. The biggest issue with this camera in my opinion is its autofocus. The GH5 uses contrast-based AF rather than phase-detection AF, which is simply not as good. It works, and in a lot of situations it works well. But there have also been a number of situations I've found myself in where I've seen and felt firsthand how the camera can struggle to determine and achieve focus, as well as reviewing my recordings in post and coming across footage that I thought was in proper focus when filming but wasn't. There are a number of different autofocus modes, many of which are good and I think their inclusion of these modes helps to offset some of the drawbacks of their contrast-based AF. Still, don't expect this camera to autofocus as well as a Canon or Sony, because in my experience their AF technology is far superior. But the autofocus in the GH5 is totally usable, especially if you're around the prosumer level in the video realm. If you're a professional, to be completely honest you'll probably need the more advanced AF that you'd find on a Canon or Sony body.

Perfect Video Camera
I have six Lumix cameras in my studio setup for my YouTube channel. This is by far my favorite. Excellent features and works seamlessly with my gimble. The price is one of the lowest I could find anywhere. Highly recommend this item.
