Really nice comparison, Caleb. I noticed the color differences in the GH5S skin tones as well. Nice improvement! No more jaundice!

This makes me incredibly excited! I have my brand new GH5s on the way and knowing how accurate your videos are compared to a lot of the watered down opinion pieces that have been popping up, its great to see the raw data that takes all the questions out of it. THANK YOU!

I've been following your channel since the beginning of Fall 2017 and I LOVE how much detail you put into your videos when it comes to comparisons/technical details that are not just useful, but RELEVANT to anyone who's in/trying to get into film-making!

Thank you for the very kind words Baila! So glad you're digging the content!

Having watched both of your videos on the GH5s I'm now completely sold on it, thank you so much for taking the time out to explain it all to us properly .

A very big thank you from Germany! This Video was so informativ :)

Thanks for all the hard working comparing these two cams. Always a huge time saver for other shooters that want the best quality and don't have the time/knowledge to break down the sensors.

Oh, my goodness. I geeked out so much on this one. I've really enjoyed my GH5S with Speedbooster. Totally the best at home video rig out there. I do miss the stabilization, but that's only when I go wandering outside of my room to film (which is super rare). I have found that my colors have looked great on the GH5s as well. I haven't had any sort of comments of the green look since I switched over. Once again, another fantastic video. I appreciate your work, friend!

I still haven't gotten over your intro and the music. So good.

Such a good video! Thanks for shooting all these color comparisons breaking it all down!!

Excellent comparison! This is the first time I've seen someone do an overlapping comparison and then an expanded view like this. The more I look at the GH5S, the more it looks like my next camera, as an upgrade from the GH4.

This is insane. I wrote off the GH5s but the results are very interesting. Thanks for this test

This is the only place I can find any info this in depth. Love it

I think this is an awesome video. I'm just starting videography and your channel is trustworthy. Please keep up the good work!

Excellent job and excellent results Caleb, thanks for the time you've put into this.

This is so interesting! Thanks for taking the time to try and sort this all out. Ultimately though, I think this just confirmed for me personally that full frame is the way to go. I can’t get enough of it!

Not gunna lie, until I started seeing the sensor quirks like this, I was 100% sold on "I need a GH5 but have no need for GH5s." But now I really want GH5s and I don't even know anymore.

GH5 is a hybrid. Which is better for me. If you’re doing video mostly, the GH5S is probably better. As a hobbyist this is splitting hairs but VERY interesting as a nerdist.

I would ask yourself this. How often do you go handheld? If the answer is under 50% of the time, I'd get the GH5s.

I have both the GH5 and GH5s. When I bought the GH5, I bought it as a bundle with the Panasonic Leica 12mm-35mm f2.8 lens. The IBS lens on the GH5s makes a big difference.

Calib, great video, this must of taken a while to produce. Appreciate your work!

Wow! I've been waiting for this for a little while now. Great video! Definitely worth the wait. And man I've been loving your stuff Caleb. Just got a G85, (and your Guide) to hold me down until I move on to the GH5s, and your channel has been my go to for those cameras, and pretty much anything else for over a year now, especially lighting.

Thank you Nick! Sorry this one took so dang long! Glad you're enjoying the videos and guides :-)

Great production value and I love that you took the time to do all these tests :) I’m leaning towards the GH5S, but not only do I have to compare it with the GH5, I have to consider the Black Magic Pocket 4k as well :p

That was Amazing!! Thank you so much! This seems like such an intense topic to have to go thru but your presentation was A++++ As someone probably below an amateur when it comes to cameras (I mean I only found out what a micro four thirds camera was a few days ago - yes I know, where on earth have I been living), I was still able to follow your explanations and descriptions easily (along with your other videos of which i've basically binge-watched ^^;)

Great video. Totally clear, totally relevant, great graphics, audio + tests. Thanks - you've helped me a ton make a decision about cameras.

What a crazy good video! So much love for your input on this. Learned A LOT!

Just "Subscribed" to your channel. Awesome work Caleb... A lot of work you put in and is appreciated... I would LOVE to see this same comparison between the GH5s and the new Sony A7iii. I'm torn between the GH5s and the A7iii. (I would use neither for photos, only video on a Ronin relying heavily on auto focus) Here are a few comparisons that I would love to see between the GH5s and the A7iii that I think would help a lot of us: 1. A side-by-side "autofocus" test between the GH5s (with the latest firmware and the 179 shutter hack) and the Sony A7iii. 2. The GH5s 10-bit 422 (highest bit rate) vs the A7iii 8-bit both 1080 and 4K (for dynamic range, banding, etc) 3. External out analysis from both cameras to an Atomos / Odyssey 7Q+ highest bit rate / color profile possible. Keep up the great work!

Thank you, I am amazed and this has changed me from wanting a GH5S to needing one.

Super great presentation. I just got my GH5s and my own experience comports with your analysis. Small changes but a big improvement in skin tones.

Wish I could give this video two thumbs! Showing the pic in pic with the speedboosters and different sensor sizes was BAD A... well it was extremely helpful! And the field of view comparison is excellent making you a genius! Thanks, Praying for you! I hope God blesses you for helping so many others.

Awesome video man! I was dead set on purchasing the GH5 for some time, but I thought I noticed those slight color differences that you proved. The GH5S really does look better. I'd be interested in seeing a comparison of the color science and tests between the A7III when that's released and the GH5S. I'm more comfortable using Panasonic and I've heard grading S Log footage from Sony can be a headache, so I'm curious if it's gotten any better and worth the switch.

Fantastic comparison. Thanks!

Awesome I was waiting for exactly that. Thank you so much :)

Very good video and very informative - thanks for this dude!

2 years later and still great info, thanks

This is EXACTLY the sensor size test I was looking for! GH5s with speed booster compared to super 35, APS-C, and full frame! Thank You!

Nicely done! Thanks for the effort Caleb. Keep it up : )

Great video, Caleb. Just FYI...Your links are mislabeled in the description. You have to sets that are both called Panasonic GH5s even though one is linked to the GH5. Thanks for the great work you do.

You provided a very good test, so I subscribed to you! :)

Good stuff. Thanks for the thorough comparison!

AWESOME video and comparisons! Thank you so much for the info on the cameras. How long have these two been out?

Great video. Your hard work is greatly appreciated!

Thanks for this video. You answer all my questions

soo good! I was waiting for someone to make this test! I would love to see .64 speedbooster in action tho'

Thx again Caleb for this great and detailed test. I'll try to translate it in French to add subtitles as soon I have time 😉

Good stuff you covered everything i wanted to know about the new sensor for GH5S

Thanks for the effort and well explained video. Won't be ditching my GH5 anytime soon though.

just bought a gh5s with speedbooster. thank you for the great video

Very interesting and informative stuff. Well explained as always ✌🏽 Thanks 🙂

super-awesome comparison! thanks for sharing this and being AWESOME :)

I'm a newbie so I may be confused about this. SInce you know the GH5 color is a little off, can't you do a custom LUT and color correct in post really quickly?

@ricetteok109

Theorically, yes, you can create your own LUT file to match GH5 with to GH5s.

Great tests! So awesome! Thanks, Caleb!

This was freaking awesome. Thanks mate!

Great comparison between both cameras, thank you!

Hey Caleb, thanks for free knowledge

Thanks for the video it’s great and I love the new intro👍 what would you say the best picture profile is for great skin tones on the gh5s? Using 4K 60 8bit for weddings

Great comparisons! Thank you so much!!

This is how you do a comparison. Enjoyed it a lot, thanks!

Great video! I’d love to see this comparison after you apply the Lemmings LUT One which totally fix skin tones perfectly and or step back a step to get more information in the background. The GH5 is so sharp you can literally move 10 feet back without any loss in quality.

Awesome video! I’ve always wondered about adapting full frame glass to the gh5s! It would be awesome to see the GH5s used with the 0.64 speed booster. I wonder how close to full frame you could get it?

Great comparison, Caleb! The GH5s suddenly became more interesting as a new camera choice. Thank you for the insights!!

This is the only review that's worth watching. Thank you for this!!

very interesting ! Thanks

Thanks Caleb you made it very clear and easy.

Extremely helpful! Thanks for this. I'll be getting my GH5s soon and I was wondering how my Tokina Cinema 11-16 Canon Mount will look on this sensor. I'm looking at the Ultra Cine Speed Booster and fingers crossed there's minimal vignetting 🤞 ...especially with the slightly wider FoV.

If you can lead me the footage of that color charts of both cameras, I will love to make a lut for matching Gh5 to GH5s. ;)

Hey Caleb great video! How wanna know if the autofocus work on both cameras.. Please let me know!

Ordered 5s last week, had viewed some comparisons, no hesitation at all. The improvements are very tempting.

Great testing, thanks mate

Excellent video Caleb! I'd love to see from you how gh5s performs color grade versus sony a7III , have you think on doing a review about that? it would be great!

Very helpful! Thanks Caleb!

very nice video, extremely informative ! Thank you !

Hey Caleb, great video! Maybe I missed this but did you list which lenses and focal lengths you used for each shot? I’m guessing you used the same lens for all of the metabones shots and then the same lens for the micro 4/3 shots?

Great vid mate!!

Could you please tell the exact crop factor numbers in UHD between GH4, GH5 and GH5s?

Great video but would love to see the DOF review with the GH5S plus Speedbooster and a crop without. I would love a GH5S but I love the shallow depth of field on the C100. Oh the struggle!!

These tests are actually really interesting, as I have the GH5s and I'm on the fence to get a speedbooster or not for mis. 35mm lenses.

nice Video! I would like to see some dynamik range and log workflow compairisms

And this f*cking global shutter !

Great video! Subtle but noticeable skin tone differences. Any chance we can download the side by side GH5 GH5s colour tests clips. Would like to see if a simple preset could be made in FCPX to bring the GH5 colours inline to the GH5s. They aren’t fair off so would think this is possible.

I love the light setup at the beggining!

A great video about the comparisons. I am especially encouraged (if not downright shocked, to see how much difference the speed boosters make in the field of view, which again, affects crop. My question is do you see any difference in the sharpness of the image with or without the speedbooster? You asked about lighting in the other video. In this one, I would put a light in front of your face to light the area from the top of your eyes to the hat, which is very dark.

@mazurindependentfilmmaking2713

There is difference in sharpness but its not critical. Lumix m4/3 senors are so sharp - you really need to reduce that sharpness in post...

This is an excellent comparison - thanks for all your work on this. You mentioned 10-bit 4:2:2 -- do you know of any software that will allow you to view and trim 10-bit 4:2:2 without rendering? I'm using MPEG Streamclip for that purpose on 8-bit, but it won't play 10-bit, and I'd love to take advantage of 10-bit, but having to render just to trim is too much overhead. Thanks in advance for any thoughts.

Thank you for doing this!

Great vid! Should make a tut on matching GH5 color with GH5s color!

Very interesting. Thanks Caleb for all your hard work in testing here! As a creator myself i know how much work goes into it! My thoughts... I have a feeling this is simply due to the change in sensor technology or calibration of the LUTs to the new sensor. It could be possible for Panasonic to release a firmware update to fix this in a future release. I would welcome a skin tone adjustment in firmware on the GH5 - Especially for VLOG-L as this would help in post more! It is interesting to note that the GH5 with a speedbooster produces a higher pixel resolution image in comparison to the GH5s and is more inline with Super 35 equivalency when shooting Film due to the GH5 downscaling of the sensor! The GH5s doesn't do this because it doesn't have the extra Megapixels to downscale with but it does have larger pixels which take in more light and produce less noise effects much more like a Fullframe camera so its getting those benefits (ie LOW LIGHT performance is better). For all those contemplating the purchase... Here are my reasons for choosing the GH5 over the GH5s: 1. Lower price 2. In body image stabilization and onsensor stabilization (+Anamorphic IBIS!) 3. Anamorphic and open gate shooting modes - I use anamorphic from time to time. 4. Higher resolution image over the GH5s in good lighting due to downscaling internally on the GH5 5. Slow motion footage is fantastic at 4K48, 4K60, 1080p120 (180 max but doesn't look that great) 6. I also Shoot photography and need some of those features. Buy the GH5s If you need: 1. Low light performance 2. Higher frame rates than GH5 - 1080p240 (versus a max of 180fps in GH5) 3 shooting fast moving or vibration sensitive shots where the IBIS is inhibiting. 4. Need slightly wider angles on your Fullframe adpated lenses, i can definintely see an advantage here for things like interior shots! But personally if you are going to spend that much more or already have a GH5, save up and wait for the Sony A7S3 when its released if you need a Fullframe Low light camera (unless you want to stay in panasonic ecosystem entirely). I always recommend using the right tool for the job. Hope that helps!

super useful - thank you

i cant get over how good the g7 for your on camera bits looks. it just looks so crisp.

Yo Caleb, thank you very much for that! One question, the more magentaish thing on the GH5 can be adjusted on the WB can it not? Thanks man!

All I want to know is .... which one is better?? ;) Amazingly comprehensive study again Caleb, mucho compliments. The frame variances were pretty incredible and the GH5s + speedbooster seems to be the winner for me. Noticed a gradual increasing redness on your skin tones for the overall shot of frame comparions. Were you just so tired and angry at that stage or what it done intentionally? Big props to your single mother-wife for taking care of those two kids all the time! ;)

I would be interested in a comparison between natural, hlg and vlog on the gh5s and which one of those would give you the best skin tones...

You hit angles a lot of other channels don't. Great work man!

Great Video man. Yeah the crop reduction is a great addition. I have the XL speed booster version (.64x you were referring to) and if my math is correct, the Crop on the GH5s is now a 1.15x crop. It would be interesting to see the a6500 with it's speedbooster compared to the XL version on the GH5s to see which one comes closer to the full frame look. I said it in my video review of the GH5s. This camera is a game changer for Micro 4/3rds and I believe will really reshape alot of peoples prejudices regarding micro 4/3rds system. Also with the low light capability, it makes lenses like the Olympus 12-100mm f4, which I wouldn't consider before on previous M43 cameras, now as a serious versatile option for event work. I also noticed the color science difference. It's very similar to canon's color science. I'm holding no regrets on my GH5s purchase.

Great video. Thank you!

When color matching the GH5 and GH5s, what do you recommend to compensate for the differences in colors that you mention? Messing with the hue in the picture profile? What adjustments would you make? Thanks!

the colour different dude to hardware or is it something that can be corrected by firmware? awesome explanation graphics btw!

Hey Caleb what are your thoughts on anamorphic shooting mode? Which camera has better options? What do you think about new black magic pocket 4k? Will it support anamorphic mode as GH5s?

Dude what a great comparison! Mind blown!

Hey Caleb, if the pictures of the field of view comparison at 5:00 are correct than the Sony a6500 (4th place) and GH5 with Speedbooster (5th place) must change places. I checked your pictures and even zoomed in on a screenshot. There is definetly a wider field of view on the GH5 with speedbooster picture. Compare the 4 squares on the grey card and you can see it. Still a very good informative video!
