My LUMIX S5 II ULTIMATE Cinema Camera Build

Do more of these Armando! videos like this and Caleb Pike's are so great to watch

The S5ii is such an awesome camera. I really love it. Puts a smile on my face to see Panasonic bring the full package after all these years.

S5ii vs fx3 / a7iv editing work flow

Love it, nice camera build 🙂

I use a lot of smallrig for the same purposes but is always nice to be introduced to other bits of equipment, thanks for that

Thank you for the time you’ve given to make content with this camera! Decided I’m moving away from my Sony camera after my recent first experience working with v-log footage. It’s so good! Getting cold feet jumping ship to Panasonic s5ii ecosystem. This content is very useful!

Thank you very much for this video It made me want to buy an s1h
its a better choice for this kind of setup when autofocus is not useful (integrated time code + OLPF filter+Better internal codec+ external proresraw &braw)

Great set up! 3'45" is a Sony body...

Hey ! Those are my rig builds on there !! That’s so cool!

I agree that this company Kondor Blue is delivering on some incredible products… ❤

Love the Kondor Blue rods

Just a beauty! Awesome job, man. Thanks

Excellent build Mondo!!! Everyone at Kondor Blue has quickly become my literal heroes

Tu haces los mejores videos!! Excelente

Oh My God.....Armondo you just got me in the mode to shoot something.....Only that there was no gear to do so....Never enjoyed a rigged out rigging video like this......Great job brother....👍

Wow that design is INSANELY GOOD!

Hi.It's a dilemma for me to choose one of these cameras for commercial works and short films.
Gh6 vs s5iix vs fuji xh2s vs a7iv?❤️

Can you please do a cinema build for a FX6????? Please? We have a v messy setup and need to get more out of it :)

Yeah, this is a really clean build! Inspiring!

does film making has to be this complex.. why can we just have our camera lenses and start shooting something greeeeeat !.. whiii

Terrible lag vía hdmi :(

Now I want to build one for no reason. Killer setup. Thank you for sharing.

Really well done. So thorough. Can't express my appreciation enough for sharing everything. Was curious to see how it moved from jib to ronin to tripod, etc. Is that in another video?

Do I need to sell just one kidney or both to buy this ?

Thank you, Armando ! May I ask how come some of the shots in the film have some anamorphic flavor to them - and to the best of my knowledge, the DZO lenses are not anamorphic. How did you manage to get that over to bokeh and wide aspect ratio ? Cheers from New Caledonia !

Well, I know one more VERY IMPORTANT FEATURE no one is talking about... Lumix S5II and S5IIX don't have new Phase Detect AF in 1080p full frame 50,60,100 and 120 FPS but only old Contrast AF which is the biggest disappointment... So for some reason people who prefer to shoot 1080p FF in slow-mo from 50 to 120 fps they should do that with old glitchy Contrast base AF. Same for all of those who were hoping to upscale 1080p 50-120 fps to 4k - no PDAF. And taking into account it's a video-oriented hybrid camera, it looks like without a firmware update in the next several months almost perfect camera becomes garbage. I preordered S5IIX and now looking forward to the firmware update. Hope they will fix it by the time S5IIX ships. If not - will just move to another brand. I believe this is a very important factor people should know about.

This has got to be the best rig system I have ever seen! I've been convinced to get the Lumix S5II and now this is all perfect perfect perfect!

It's glorious 🥺😍

Great setup man! Wow the 4K teradek is quit expensive… if I am going to by the DZO set I can’t afford the Teradek. Do you have any cheaper options in mind?

Am I able to get the license to shoot ProRes Raw for the s5 II? Or are we still waiting to be able to? I can’t find the link

Makes you forget that’s a 1800 camara😮

what dtap can be used for s5ii if i wanna use a v-mount battery?

I’m considering the S5IIX for some project work I have coming up. But what’s not clear to me from the documentation is whether the camera accepts external timecode. Obviously here you’re using the Deity unit, so is that feeding into the camera or into an external recorder. It would be a big help to know this before I spend the money. Thanks so much.

Nice plug for Kondor Blue! They have some cool features to their products.
Q: Does that cage accommodate the Panasonic XLR interface that attaches to the hot shoe? Lt looks like the top handle will interfere with it.

@mondobytes can you please give a link to that timecode receiver? how do you attach that to S5 II? via audio jack?

what storage solution are you recording to? using memory cards for a short-film sounds dangerous

Does anyone know if the non trigger version of the handle has 1/4” mounts on top?

Hey Armando, how were you powering the FIZ motor?

This rig set up is fire... 🔥🔥🔥

Can I setup all the some things in my S5IIX?

Love This!! I don't shoot any films, but most customers want (only need) 1080, so I shoot with mirrorless and DSLR a lot! It's great to still make these rigs look as professional as possible.

Great rigg! I feel that Condor Blue are paying per time their name is mentioned in the video. 😅🤣

This is a great setup! You didn't mention the shoulder pad or front handles. Did you use the Kondor Blue 15mm Dual-Rod Clamp with ARRI-Style Rosettes? It would be awesome if you could update your links with the handles and mount for the front handles and shoulder pad!

Think counted 17 "actuallies" :D Other than that, awesome build

How different are the bodies of the S5 ii and the original S5? I'm wondering whether this cage would fit the original S5 too?

Es todo wey!!

Thanks for the video, its a beautiful rig. Do you know how much does the entire setup weight? And can you tell us what tripod and what mattebox are you using? Does the mattebox has filter slots? Thanks again!
