Why? For example let&#8217;s talk about its recording capabilities:\u00a0<strong>4K @ 60p &#8211; 10-bit 4:2:2 or 1080p @ 180fps<\/strong>, all recorded internally. This crazy amount of data surely needs huge storage space: for this purpose in the GH5, there are <strong>two hot-swappable card slots<\/strong> ( high transfer rate cards are highly recommended) so as one card runs out it switches to the next with constant recording with no overheating!<\/p>\n<p>Another big improvement comes with <strong>Body Image Stabilization<\/strong>: a 5 axis image stabilization on the sensor that will guarantee a super steady video. If you&#8217;re going to add a lens like the Leica 12-60mm (with\u00a0Power Optical Image Stabilizer) you will get a two level stabilization system working together. Obviously, you can pick a wide range of brand for the lens like Lumix, Olympus or Adapted Lens.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/l-5DYNiFe9Y?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Another feature that all you vloggers will like, is the <strong>super bright fully articulated touchscreen<\/strong> that flips up, down and forward toward the lens.<br \/>\nBattery life is good but no as its predecessor (the GH4) so be sure to pick up some extra batteries. For all you pro filmmakers out there into the Lumix GH5 you will find zebras, focus assist, waveform and vectorscope meters are all onboard and will make the happiness of all the pro vloggers. In addition, you can purchase separately a function enhancement\u00a0called VlogL for film production\/professional videographers that increases dynamic range to 12 stops.<br \/>\n<strong>The biggest downside is the low-light performance<\/strong> that comes up with noisy recordings even with low ISO, but Panasonic claimed to fix it with a firmware upgrade.<\/p>\n<p>So what we think about this camera?\u00a0A must own for the aspiring vlogger\/filmmaker on a budget that will do everything that the GH4 will do, but it adds the ability to record <strong>10bit footage directly to SD cards<\/strong>,\u00a0offers weather protection, and in-body stabilization.<\/p>\n<p>Price: $1,999<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"Lens:_Panasonic_Lumix_G_Vario_7-14MM\" >Lens: Panasonic Lumix G Vario 7-14MM<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-461\" src=\"http:\/\/themes2go.xyz\/vlogger-video-wordpress-theme\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/casey-neistat-2017-lens-670x670.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"670\" height=\"670\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themes2go.xyz\/vlogger-video-wordpress-theme\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/casey-neistat-2017-lens-670x670.jpg 670w, https:\/\/www.themes2go.xyz\/vlogger-video-wordpress-theme\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/casey-neistat-2017-lens-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.themes2go.xyz\/vlogger-video-wordpress-theme\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/casey-neistat-2017-lens-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.themes2go.xyz\/vlogger-video-wordpress-theme\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/casey-neistat-2017-lens-658x658.jpg 658w, https:\/\/www.themes2go.xyz\/vlogger-video-wordpress-theme\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/casey-neistat-2017-lens-170x170.jpg 170w, https:\/\/www.themes2go.xyz\/vlogger-video-wordpress-theme\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/casey-neistat-2017-lens.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 670px) 100vw, 670px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>7-14 mm Lumix G Vario Lens<\/strong> is the actual lens used by Casey:\u00a0a very light-weight but sharp &#8220;ultra-wide zoom&#8221; for the micro four thirds system cameras like the Lumix GH5.\u00a0<strong>It does not have OIS<\/strong> (optical image stabilization) built-in but this should not be a problem in your vlog\u00a0due to it being an ultra-wide lens.\u00a0The 7-14mm is light and small, so easy to carry especially compared to an equivalent lens.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cDceLsAWikU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Images offer <strong>great sharpness<\/strong> on-center with minor vignetting at f\/4 but overall the quality of your clips will results great.<br \/>\nDownsides?
