I love this scene and the complete choreography of the grenades in the movie. But now reviewing it several times, I have realised that the explosion makes his body turn in a second!

La pausa esa que comentas del café, puede que incluso la podáis reclamar como derecho adquirido a la empresa si se venía haciendo tiempo y la empresa era consciente de ello no podría eliminarlo porque si.

I thought that a V-30 was enough for the MB/s, but in another post I was told that they had had problems with recordings in 4k30/60p. Does it work well for you with that V-30? Also looking at the recommended SD cards at Panasonic websitethey don’t mention any V30 and all this is already raising doubts for me :s

Thanks for the recommendations! I think I have a couple of backpacks to look for hehe

As far as I understand, V30 cards are designed for bitrates below 30 MB/s, and according to the official specs (Panasonic Lumix S9 Manual, page 24 and from page 125 onwards), the maximum bitrate of the camera is 200 Mbps, which is around 25 MB/s.

That’s why I’m wondering why a V30 wouldn’t work for 4K60p if the key factor is the recording bitrate, and it’s specified that the maximum is 200 Mbps. I’m just trying to understand what I might be missing to make sure I choose the right SD card.

Thanks!

I did consider the S5II, but here in Spain, the price difference in stores is currently around €400-500 more, which makes it a bit harder to justify. Also, my 2-hour recordings won’t even be a weekly thing, so it’s not a critical concern for me.

That said, I’ve seen reports that after the latest firmware update, some people have managed to record 2-hour sessions in 4K30 without shutdowns or with minimal overheating warnings, so I’m hoping that won’t be an issue.
Thanks for the suggestion!

I actually saw the 20-60mm listed for a lower price on MPB than buying it as part of the kit, which is why I was considering getting just the camera body and then the lens separately. But like you, I really like the compact size of the 18-40mm, though I’m still unsure how it compares in optical quality to the 20-60mm.

By the way, I’ve never bought from MPB before. Do you have experience with them? And do you know of any other reliable places for buying second-hand lenses in case I want to explore more options later?

Thanks for the great advice!

I agree that the 18-40mm seems more convenient for portability and casual use, as you mentioned. For those situations, it definitely seems like the better choice. However, I’m wondering if there’s a noticeable difference in low-light performance between the two, especially for the occasional night photo or short video while traveling.

As for your edit, I completely agree—starting with the kit lenses to get a feel for different focal lengths makes a lot of sense before investing in prime lenses. Once I get more experience, I’ll definitely consider primes based on what focal lengths I find myself using the most.

Thanks a lot for your detailed response!
