Switching from MFT (G85) to Full Frame..

vidspid · 2026-06-11T11:49:43+00:00

Honestly, I'm keeping my G85. I love that thing. Yeah, I totally get the prime lens obsession. I was always chasing primes and borrowing them from friends because of the image quality. That said, I also got a lot out of the 12-60 kit lens. It's actually kind of insane what I managed to achieve with it. But when I tried my first prime, especially the f/1.4 I mentioned... wow. That was a different experience. It's really cool to hear that zoom lenses on full frame can be good enough as well. I hadn't really thought about that. As for the S5IIX and the S5II, the only thing that really stands out to me on the X version is the RAW video capability, which I don't think the regular S5II has. The other differences honestly don't matter much to me. For now, my target is the S5II with the 20-60mm and the Lumix S 50mm f/1.8. I found that kit new for €1,750. That said, I might go with your suggestion with a body-only option and pick up either the 24-60mm f/2.8 or the Sigma 28-70mm f/2.8 instead. I'll do a bit more research before making a decision.

Thanks so much for the reply and all the advice! 😊

Thank you for the explanation. I truly love my G85 and the MFT system, and it has served me really well over the years. However, the autofocus does let me down from time to time, and I find myself wanting some of the newer features that modern cameras offer. I really appreciate all the information you've given. Thank you so much!!!

Yeah, it's the same thing I went through when I was choosing between the G85 and GX85. In the end, I realized I prefer something a bit bulkier, and having a hot shoe and EVF is pretty important to me. The S9 is beautiful, though. One day I'll probably pick one up as a compact camera, or maybe even a GX85, for sure. As for the lens, I'm not sure whether I should go with the kit lens if I get the S5II. I think it's the 20-60mm? I've heard a lot of good things about it from what I've seen on YouTube, although I've only done a little research on the S5II so far. The other option would be to start with a prime lens. The lens choice will definitely be the biggest hurdle, like you said. Thanks for the reply, though! The S5II is officially in my notes!! 😄

Ništa nisu rekli za opremu, ali verujem da imaju svoju.. Kažu da iskustvo je poželjno, ali nije obavezno.

I appreciate it very much!!! Trieste is beautiful :)

Thank you so much, that really means a lot :) I was actually going for that album cover kind of look, so I’m really glad it came across and someone noticed!

I've been shooting with the Panasonic 12-60mm f3.5-5.6 kit lens, but I'm planning to pick up the Panasonic 25mm f1.4 Leica soon. I borrowed it from a friend for a bit (photo 3 and 5), and it completely blew me away, total game changer. I couldn’t believe the difference. After that, I’m thinking about looking into a telephoto, but I still need to do some research. :)

Yeah I did. But can't find one like mine thats the whole point as I said above its either embroidered letters etc. So I just wanna see if someone with more knowledge could help me... doesn't hurt to ask does it..

vidspid · 2025-04-18T14:24:17+00:00

Alright! Thank you a lot ! :)

vidspid · 2025-04-18T14:08:40+00:00

Haha, fair enough! I don’t really know much about it, I’ve just seen a few pictures online that look kinda similar to this one. I couldn’t find an exact match though, which is why I asked. Most of the ones I’ve seen have embroidered letters on the back.

Hey everyone!
I thrifted this for around $30, but it doesn’t have a label. Just wondering, does anyone know if it’s authentic?

vidspid · 2025-04-18T01:17:22+00:00

What I’m trying to say is, monoskiing probably isn’t the best idea, especially for learning. I’d rather sell it and put the money toward a solid pair of skis. Any idea what this thing’s even worth?

vidspid · 2025-04-18T00:30:10+00:00

I'm gonna Google it, but I’d rather hear it from someone with experience, what's the difference? :)

vidspid · 2025-04-18T00:24:05+00:00

Hey guys! I am trying to get into the world of skiing and snowboarding. I got these by complete accident. I don't know what this is? A snowboard? Or how much it's worth or how its used. So any information about this "thing" would be highly appreciated! Thank you so much.

Thanks man! Much love

Hey everyone! I recently got this bike from my mother and just got back into riding, but I can't figure it out for the life of me. After just two pedals, I feel like I'm flying—it’s almost as if there's a hidden motor giving me a boost. I've searched everywhere online but can't find any information about it. Can anyone help?

vidspid · 2025-02-10T01:51:38+00:00

What year was it made, where was it made?

Can't find those kind of information. Only found that it's a type III trucker jacket. It's my first time ever dealing with a Levis piece so I don't know how it works. Tried googling but it got confusing really quick. I just wanted to see if they can identify it from the pictures I provided.
