Why I switched from Sony to Panasonic
Everyone seems to be switching to Panasonic and when I was looking to upgrade my camera earlier this year, after shooting Sony cameras for so many years, one camera came out on top and seemed to outperform the rest. In this video I share my first impressions of my new camera, the Panasonic Lumix S5ii. This is not a review, and I don't dive into all the specs. I just wanted to share some photos and video clips I've shot with the camera so far, and share my perspective as someone using Panasonic cameras for the first time.
