Ok I think it is for travel photographer and videographer. Even vloger need more than 15 mins sometimes.

This prompted me to take another look at the Canon R8. It's $1200 now and looking even more appealing. No open gate or 4k from HDMI, but record limit is 2 hours or until it overheats (and they say it only does that in 4k60 or 4k50p) ... no crop in 4k60 and a heaphone jack (but no IBIS.) Did I mention it's $300 cheaper than this new Panny?

no 4K from HDMI? where did you get that? I own the R8 for almost a year and record pretty much all my videos with a capture card over hdmi, hdmi works up to 4k60, no problem. As for overheating, in the studio i can use a pc fan at 5V and keep it going for hours and hours with no issues in 4k60. Without the fan it lasts like 40 minutes. in 4K30 it lasts a lot longer depending on the room temperature, maybe like 1-2hours, without airflow in the room and some heat it can even overheat in 4k30 in like 40-50min, this is all over hdmi, not recording on sd Outside in the sun it can overheat in under 20 minutes though. 4K30 holds up much longer, usually it's fine in normal use case outside. In my studio for long term talking head I generally just turn on my fan that is hooked up in a bracket in the cold shoe, very easy and convenient daily use solution

15 min record limit is an utter joke. In 2024? It can't be excused.

i've been doing research. The IBIS is awesome.. low key, if it has Angle Shutter, then there's less complications of calculating frame rates. also, since they can do both FF and APS-C and upload short form content (vertically) on social media, this camera is amazing! Is it compatible with the AI tracking with the RS3 ?

@@whoismatt 1080p is still relevant, even in 2024, for gaming content creators. If you're going to record yourself and your reactions, especially for a long time while playing a video game, you need a camera with unlimited recording limit and the option to record in 1080p as it's not too demanding on your camera. This is really important because it reduces the chance of the camera suddenly overheating in the middle of your gameplay. Recording in 1080p is also preferred if you don't want to end up with a really large file size at the end of the session. You could of course use a regular webcam to record yourself, but then you wouldn't be able to separate your facecam footage from your gameplay footage while editing.

According to my search of the iPhone app store, the Lumix Lab app doesn't exist. If it appears, will it also work with other cameras like s5ii?

I personally don't want to spend comparatively much money on it. For 300-400 bucks cheaper? Maybe.

From an event coverage point of view I would have a second camera op (assuming the bride and groom are willing to pay for one of those) who is quick cropping and posting to social media and here’s the important part *** using the happy couples’ very own signature LUT in the same way they have a signature cocktail at the bar. Used that way (in the right markets) the camera could fully pay for itself in two or three weddings maybe one. There’s a unique feature set here which opens up some new possibilities.
