Market Situation of Lumix - Why you should not switch! 

The crop alone is why you'll never get the most of your lens focals

@@DocBoA that's true. All other options are compromises. Less dynamic range with the Z6III or less flexibility when cropping with the A7sIII.

Don't know, looks like canons coming in a good spot

​@@CameraRigThe Lumix S5 II presents notable contradictions in performance. It is credited with amazing color science despite having less color range than 4:2:2 in 6k. It boasts about stabilization but comes with rolling shutter problems. Given that a majority of professional work is done on tripods, how often will you utilize IBlS if it has to be mounted for work? You can compensate for ibis but you cannot compensate for rolling shutter and unreliable auto focus. It seems as if all its advantages come with compromises and caveats, which begs the question: what advantage does it actually have over the competition (Sony)? In contrast, the Sony A7s3 maintains consistency across features, boasting no rolling shutter, outstanding low-light performance, and reliable long-term autofocus suitable for extensive professional use. The absence of a 4K crop at any frame rate ensures consistent wide-angle coverage, allowing you to utilize 100% of the entire focal length of your lenses. Features like Clear Image Zoom achieve stable images somewhat comparable to the Lumix S5 ll despite the crop factor (lumix is already cropped so it helps with the illusion of stability). The Sony ecosystem advantage allows substantial cost savings and seamless integration within Sony's camera lineup, catering to various production needs such as seamless color matching without sacrificing image quality.

Bro I had The A7S iii and the S5iix is Better!!! And I’ve been a long time subscriber to your platform!!!

@thelabnificentmediagroup4832 s5ii seems to fit me best only for handheld personal projects. Not so much the best all around system for professional work. Everything it offers comes with drawbacks. I can't trust AF won't lose subject after long hours of sitting on a tripod. The subject could just be sitting there and suddenly it randomly loses focus and it only gets worst the longer the shoot gets or if the environment gets hotter which happens using studio lights or if the subject moves their hands a lot when they talk. Panning is not good at all. rolling shutter is so problematic for shooting anything fast like cars or sports in general and to pair that with the AF system makes it that much worst and unusable. This is even more noticeable with wider lenses. Speaking of wider lenses, you cant use your widest focal length in all modes because of a crop which is a deal breaker for me considering the price you pay for a wide prime which the L mount has very limited options of. 6k open gate 4:2:0 has less color depth than 10bit 4:2:2 in 4k, but it looks nicer out of the box than most sonys without color grading. The only notable compromise with the a7s3 was the price but after borrowing the s5ii I would much rather pay the extra price for a better auto focus and to use my widest focal length in all modes without a crop. That price comes with a peace of mind. The only benefit of the ibis is that you don't have use a gimbal when you're following a subject but that doesn't matter if AF loses the subect or if you're mounted to a tripod which most of the time during professional gigs you will be. You can always compensate for stabilization with a gimbal, but there is no substitute for inconsistent AF and poor rolling shutter performance. A7s3>S5ii for all around professional work. S5ii> a7s3 for content creators and hobbyist.

@@ngonzale3 definitely a good strategy. It might happen next year. The Lumix 100mm and Sigma 50mm 1.2 L-Mount are still expensive. 😁

@@dennisvisualske if you don't mind the 4k60p crop, then it is a great camera. 🤔

@@CameraRig the only shortcoming,,, but nikon z6iii video has shortcoming

@@dennisvisualske yeah, for example Nikons have absolutely no Open Gate

@@mostlyfinnishlifeeventsand5112 noisy raw video,, green chroma noise in shadows and 10bit codec is in long Gop not All intra. only prores 10 bit is a form of intraframe. but davinci resolve does not support this codec

The 4k60p APS-C crop has many advantages over full frame 4k60p with regards to image quality that I have vigorously tested. People tend to criticise the crop without providing any actual data, but I tested thoroughly over several days. The negative narrative surrounding the crop that many 'copy and paste' everywhere is simply not true.

6k 10 bit 4:2:2 50p Open Gate!

@@daniellrodriguezs RAW :D

Oh yeah, SUBSCRIBED !

I am an s5ii user, and lately I have started to get interested in MFT sensors, What do you think, should I stay on full frame or move to MFT? Sometimes I feel uncomfortable with lenses that are too big on a full frame.

@@IkaSafderatq Hmmm.. Interesting ! Me personally, I can't really see myself going back to MFT. For example, the GH7 looks really nice but...there are just things and times (low light) where I'd much rather have a full frame camera. If you're worried about large lenses... You just have to find the ones that aren't. There's large lenses on MFT also.. It just depends.

@@TopshelfJunior Thank you for your opinion. 👋🏼

@@JoATTech if you film mostly 30p or 24p, the S5II could be a great vlogging camera (60p APS-C crop). The ZV-E10 is only APS-C, so it might not be that good at low-light. For APS-C professional use, there is the Lumix GH7. But I would wait to see what happens. I think selling Sony lenses is easier than Lumix lenses since there are more Sony shooters. The S5II and S5IIX has no OLPF, so you might want to get one from Kolari to remove moire if you film a lot of fabric, cities, things with repeating pattern.

@@CameraRig I primarily shoot 25p (50Hz contry). And 95% scenarios I have the lighting I control, so low light does not impact me. But I would prefer FF camera instead of APS-C any day, but cheapest sony 10bit 4:2:2 FF is $2500 :(. Maybe it's easier to sell Sony lenses, but since there are more, they are cheaper used ...

Yes, definitely stay with what makes you productive and happy. We are all easily excited by FOMO.

This it.

There is already some collaboration going on, like the DJI Lidar can be used via RS3 for the autofocus of Lumix lenses without the DJI focus motor. There is also the DJI Ronin 4d. Collaboration would be indeed great!

@@mostlyfinnishlifeeventsand5112 thanks, I will check it out. 😁

@@CameraRig The YT links (as expected) didn't get thru: search for the title "Nikon Z6 III Video Flickering issue (with workaround)" (by "testcams" - a follow-up) and the two Robert May links in the description

@@HGQjazz I think the A7SIII is still the cashcow of Sony. There is no camera that beats it in terms of rolling shutter + dynamic range + no crop. If Sony releases the A7sIV, they might be open to re-sell their A7sIII sensor to Panasonic to make more profit. 🤔

@@OasisExplorer and you also have to consider the improved autofocus of the S5IIX. When you film with the S5IIX, it just works and you can focus more on your shot. There is a new registered camera by Panasonic. Maybe in January, we see which way they will go and if it again a re-used sensor. 🤔

I love the S5IIx except for the latency from the HDMI. I was hoping the update would fix it.

@@RealPivotTV Have you tried turning the audio out off through the HDMI? Only output the video through HDMI.

@@OasisExplorer I’ll give it a shot now that you mentioned that I did hear that somewhere. If I remember correctly they said it helps but not a complete fix

@@RealPivotTV I went around the latency problem of the S5IIX by disabling audio over HDMI and by using autofocus only. 😅

@@loiccardenas great to know! I wonder why there is still no announcement or rumors directly from Panasonic. Uncropped 60p would be really important. Since you switch lens systems by going Full-frame, you could also switch camera brand. Autofocus in video is super helpful and you can focus on a lot of other things when filming with great autofocus. Maybe wait till January to see if there are other cameras being released.

@@CameraRig oh yeah right now I’m just gonna wait

@@delysid_musicPY well, the S5 and S5IIx have both 2 native ISOs at 640 and 4000 in VLog which is better for daylight and sunset. The Sony's second native ISO is good if you need to film at night without additional lights, so like documentaries. First, the A7sIV has to be released. But then it could be just a possibility that Panasonic can reuse the A7SIII sensor. Sales of new A7sIII will drop and by using Panasonic to sell the sensor they still could make profit. But it could also block space of manufacturing for other new Sony sensors. Also, it is not clear if Panasonic can increase the resolution somehow. 🤔 I hope we hear an announcement for beginning of 2025. Canon will release also new cameras and Nikon might incorporate Red's global shutter technology. So it will be interesting. In general, if you want to save money, then Lumix is perfect. Otherwise, Sony can give you more possibilities to spend money and get the latest tech. 😅

@@pixelcityart3554 thank you! I hope the Z6III will stirr up the camera market and encourage other camera brands to release more interesting models. 😊

@@godface81 yes, that's what I also thought. There are lenses of other brands, like Meike and Sigma coming out for L-Mount, but those lens manufacturers can just change the adapter and electric connector and sell it for Sony and other brands. So it does not really matter for them if Lumix is releasing more cameras.

What are you hoping for from the next Lumix camera? I'm sitting between with 2 Lumix Bodies a couple lenses and an A7s3 with a 24-70. If LUMIX had at least ONE full frame body with 4k60 uncropped. I'd drop the Sony instantly.

@@ed61730 exactly. Right now, the competition is more expensive, but next year, newer cinema cameras come out and current ones become cheaper. Videographers who want to step a level up will then think about switching camera brands if Panasonic does not give them an option. 🤔

@@LuisCruz-yg6rs thank you. The successor of the S1H is not certain so I had to do some research.

@@thekofi1 thanks! 😁

@@fedzciulla if you work in production with artificial lighting, MFT is fine. Even the Red Komodo 6k with global shutter is MFT. But viewing angles and background blur are better. Readout speeds are often worse. But dynamic range is better. I have bokeh addiction, so full frame caters my needs. 😂 Most cinematographers shoot anyway at f4 and not so low as you could. I also like to film walks at night on my other channel and get the most details of clouds when you have a dark foreground and the bright sky as background. 😁

@@SMGJohn definitely, it is not wise to switch camera to become better. Most of the time, lighting is what makes a great image and even a phone is enough. Full-Frame can make sense, if your work requires it and if you want it's features, like better dynamic range, great low-light, more background blur etc. This has of course some downsides, like worse stabilization, costly lenses, and more. So the decision between the S5IIX and the GH7 which can record internal raw (and does it crop at 4k60p?) is not easy. 🤔

@@CameraRig Panasonic S5M2 and Canon R8 are arguably probably best content creator cameras, very good autofocus, a pretty high price but if its your job its not a bad investment, lenses are cheaper on the S5M2 but still VERY expensive comparatively, for R8 you can adapt old Canon EF glass which work surprisingly well and are found super cheap, mint condition 24-105mm F4 for 500 dollars In Japan though I never seen or met any production studio that uses anything but Panasonic GH6 and the GH7 is sold out in every store here, people love micro 4/3 for video work. A lot of JPOP music videos are shot on Panasonic gear and good chunk of commercials as well. Sometimes a big sensor can be detrimental to keeping background blur in control, because in a professional setting you rather not blur background out completely which is why pro camcorders do not have large sensors to begin with and why Hollywood does not shoot very much with full frame gear, even medium format cinema cameras are mostly kept at F11 or F16. For dynamic range and ISO performance I agree, larger sensor is better specially if you need lot of megapixel for professional architecture, landscape and other work that needs it. But most of these buy medium format, not full frame. For average person, these are super overk*ll.

This is bias you should verify if it is still true. Things changed recently. The autofocus is great. I filmed a whole wedding only on AF with lots of people and was so surprised how prefectly it worked. Only when it was dark during the party, it has some minor issues once. The startup time is true as well as the viewing of files. The benefit of Lumix S5IIx is that you can just let it run and it won't overheat. Best is if you film with a V-Mount battery. But still, switching to 4k60p takes some seconds and is annoying. I never thought about this. Thanks. :)

the autofocus is fine there is nothing not to trust

@@JanSur let's see next year. If there is still no successor, try renting the R5II to get a feeling for it and to better judge if it suits your needs. Also Canon glass is a lot more expensive. Maybe Sony will release a A7sIV next year. 🤔

​@@CameraRigeven R5c is better for those that need 60fps. Same dr, the only downside is price for body and lenses. R5c, z8, s5iix, a7siii... its a loop where I always and up on xh2s :D It is a loop where

Yes same here, don't see open gate being useful until it can do that, as I am constantly in either 50p or 100p.

@@goawaybaizuo I think renting the R6II to get a feeling for the R6III could help. Then you could see how it really performs with autofocus, etc. some people told me it is bad. Others say, it is good. 🙄 Nikon and Canon pushed forward with new hybrid cinema cameras, so we should see something from Sony in 2025. 🤔

@@RealPivotTV thank you! Immer gerne! 😁

@@paullafleur6112 thank you! 😁

@@Stefan_Heinrich I do not know but I think they gradually improve their IBIS as other features. Often people compare the ancient A7SIII with the S5II and conclude Sony has bad IBIS. Also, the Nikon Z6iii has more IBIS stops than the S5II but I am not sure how it looks like in practice. Overall, a gimbal is just unbeatable and best if you do professional work while moving. I think Sony will release the FX3 mark 2 in 2025 since they produced for Nikon the Z6III sensor that beats the A7SIII in some areas.

@@nileshjaitly this noise reduction dynamic range of the Z6III is really confusing and here and there are some complains about the Z6III. While the S5IIX is not perfect, one can live with it. I think if one wants to step up, Canon could be interesting, but I think you need to get proper lenses for $1,000 each. I am more worried if Lumix has the capability to continue their cinema line. 🤔

@@noopynnus that is difficult. Panasonic might release the S1R2 next, maybe we hear an announcement end of this year. I would take the next Release of Panasonic as an indicator into which direction they go. Also check your needs vs wants. Do you have any issues with your current camera or are there features that would make you more productive? 🤔

@@eldengard23 the sources I found claim the full-frame sensors of Nikon are made by Sony. It could be that APS-C sensors for Nikon are done by TowerJazz. Otherwise, we could see an S1H2 with a Full-Frame sensor similar to Nikon.

@@CameraRig yee people say that everywhere because it's a default "fact" in peoples head from DSLR days, but no, nikon went with TowerJazz from d850 onwards (d750 was a typo) so from 2017>now it's been towerjazz in everything except d7300 i believe

@@CameraRig S1H2 can't use the 24.5 MPX TJ sensor since it's designed by Nikon, and fabricated by TJ

@@CameraRig So the timeline on TJ sensors is from z6/d780 for the 24.5 mpx and d850/d500 for the 45/20.8 mpx sensor (it's the same just cut down and optimised for low light like z8/9 sensors are) The semi stacked is developed from the 24.5 from the d780 and the stacked 45 was developed from the d850 sensor. There were even a lot of patents from DSLR with hibrid viewfinder in the 2019s indicating a "milc tech" D880 following the D780 idea but it was canned because of IBIS and costs of manufacture of the hibrid viewfinder and it turend into Z9/Z8 project

@@eldengard23 interesting. I googled a bit and it could be indeed a possibility. This would at least mean the monopoly of Sony is not that strong.

@@andilenonkwelo6616 thanks, I try. You can have a look in my description for the sources they get more information. It's difficult to find the information. I hope we see a direction from Panasonic with their next camera soon.

@@CameraRig I just got the fx30 and canon r5c through govt. Funding in my country. If I saw this sooner. My buying wud have surely changed

@@andilenonkwelo6616 well, there is at least no 60p crop with the FX30. 😅

I thought it has great highlight roll off? But of course I might be biased as Lumix user. The S5-series has no OLPF. A OLPF can make your footage look more organice, like the Kolari OLPF. Another option is Dehancer as plugin. I filmed the front facing camera with OLPF and the side facing camera without OLPF. Then, I applied some grades and Dehancer to get this look. But all of this is a lot of work.

@@CameraRig I think the images out of the sh1 and s5 look more organic. It’s hard to describe, but the way Panasonic deals with highlights feels very crunchy and digital. It’s a great camera, I just feel like it may limit me more than a bmcc 6k, or x-h2s. The specs are so good on the Panasonic, but I feel like the specs like ibis, af, fan, codecs, are considered more than the image quality when people pick these cameras. Coming from someone who shoots on reds, and had the original blackmagic.. they don’t have many features.. but the sensor and images produce such great quality. It’s hard for me to pick a camera. I think someone who’s starting their journey or may be a few years into it should definitely go with the lumix, it’s so affordable and the image out of the camera is amazing for what it is. I started on a canon 60d and would have loved to have the lumix 12 years ago hahah.

Its funny how most say the exact opposite, IBIS is pretty much the best out there. Sony has better highlights but Lumix has better shadow detail.

@@Eissen_meteor I hope my other videos about S5IIx tests are helpful. 😁

@@CameraRig this very video absolutely settles my pub argument about the E fanboys and L gentelment about who make what and which do what.

@@Eissen_meteor yes, I was very surprised about Panasonic Lumix' situation. It is still amazing, what they do with the sensors. But for 2025, if they reuse the same sensor, they need to provide at least an internal VND at a interesting price point to stay attractive next to Sony.

@@CameraRigyheeaa... also hope time that electronic ND from sony(forgot it's name) became mainstream soon. I tiered being shouted as AC when ask about right ND.

Also true. Lighting is most important. But you should also be aware on what you spend your money on and if it gives you the best value and productivity for your usecase/work.

@@RBullCZ Leica produces their sensors with CMOSIS. Not sure which one it is but it is an in-house sensor. The A7sIV has 33Mpx and therefore smaller pixels. So it's just harder to get the same amount of light in those smaller pixels.

@@wtfkurtis no I am not sure, I only know what I found. You are right, there is a partnership. This could increase the possibility that we see a S1ii with the Sl3 sensor.

@@mostlyfinnishlifeeventsand5112 you will see it when filming repeating pattern like cloth at a specific distance. You probably were lucky that you were far or close enough. Just do a test with a friend who wears a suit or stripes and move a away. You might see it on a field monitor. It could also be that it is more present in APS-C crop mode.

@@CameraRig yup, maybe it's because I never shoot 60p (APS-C) as I always shoot in 6K OG.

@@sardanapalos I do not find the S5IIX better than the A7sIII. It is only perfect for me but not for others. The S5IIX is cheaper than a used A7sIII. The S5IIX has no overheating, better IBIS, and 6k recording which lets you crop in post. But it has worth rolling shutter. If you film weddings or interviews, it is fine. But if you need fast camera movements, the S5IIx can be the worst camera for you. In the end, it depends on your use-case. There is no best camera for everyone. If you need low rolling shutter, 4k is enough, etc. then the A7sIII is the best camera for you. 😁

@@CameraRig the a7siii has never overheated in greek summers i am using it....if there is no 6k 60fps its like there is no 6k.... and i forgot the hdmi lag in the s5iix... i am using my s5iix for photography more than for video....and in that its still not really good ...just decent. For the money i wouldn't say it is as good as all new lumix creators are hyping this camera, lumix made legendary cameras back in the day, and now only in micro fourthirds, lets hope the S series gets a new good camera

@@sardanapalosis the a7s3 a better camera? Yes, but it’s certainly not twice as good. I can buy 2 S5II’s for the cost of the Sony.

@@sardanapalos every camera might be hyped. Sure the S5IIX might be similar price like the Canon R6 (or R5) which can do 4k60p but it has better recording formats. Also the S5IIX recycles an old sensor and should be priced around $2000. It depends on your use-case. If you film only 24p for 2 hours without interruption and with no recording limit, the S5IIX is great. I got ProRes HQ with the S5IIX but high rolling shutter which I will not notice because I don't film fast subjects and I don't do fast whip pans. In the end, it depends on your requirements. I film live and need to crop a lot in post. 5.9k ProRes HQ gives me great flexibility. Also, I don't film fast subjects, so rolling shutter is no issues. Filming at 4k60p is really a downside, especially at lowlight. But then it is cheaper than the A7SIII so I can afford 2 cameras. The A7SIII is still the king of cinema cameras but it is a step up and not everyone needs it. Some people are even happy with he GH7. I agree with you that especially the 6K open gate topic is overhyped. Same like E-Stab High which crops your sensor to APS-C. (See my other video)

@@CameraRig If recording 6k opengate and you need fast panning capability, you can always flip the camera 90 degrees. You will get zero rolling shutter when panning because of the way the sensor readout works. Yes you will have to crop, but is better than unusable panned footage. The other downside is that rolling shutter is now on the Y axis, so no fast tilting motion.

@@SimeonKolev well, you want to use 6k if you use the S5IIx because that's the point of having it instead of the A7sIII. You can crop in post and still have 4k. I don't know for sure that there is moiré in 4k oversampled. I will test it. I plan to make a video about it

@@CameraRig the oversampling is resolving the moire issue always. About the open gate - yes Panasonic can do it and no Sony camera can do it (maybe the true cinema cameras can...). PS 6K in RAW and IPB can be different. I am not sure what is the resolution, I have no idea is the S5II capable of shooting 6K IPB. If it is with lower resolution than 6000pixels it might be able to reduce moire a little. For example A7sIII is 4,2K sensor and it is shooting 3840pix video which is slight oversample and is fixing the moire in most cases.

@@SimeonKolev it's native 6k OpenGate for LONG GOP and native 5.9k for ProRes HQ. C4k is oversampled but only up to 30p. If the moire patterns aligns with the sensors pixel array, you would have the structure as colour information. I wonder how oversampling could fix this. 🤔

@@CameraRig yes 6K is 5952 x 3968 which is not oversampling. 4K is oversampled all of it. 4K 60p is in aps-c and is also oversampled because 4K is 3840 and the sensor is a little over 4000pix wide in aps-c. The more you oversample the better it fixes moire. It is a processing thing.

@@moneyboys2010 I am very confused by your statement and your incorrect thoughts about my opinion on Lumix. If you watch the whole you see that Lumix is the best price-value option right now. I also state that some of the issues are no real issues. Moire artefacts appear only when you film at a specific distance. "Professional" cinema cameras like the Lumix S1H and the Red Komodo have an OLPF. You can be lucky and they do not appear. Also oversampling to 4k could reduce moire but I need to prove this first.

They will definitely re-use some GH7 features. It would be cost efficent to use the same hardware in another camera. Let's really hope for an OLPF! 😅

Your sneaking suspicion is based off nothing and plainly wrong.

@@SimeonKolev yes, it is close to the S5II. But the S5IIx has even better codecs. The S5II has better dynamic range but the A7IV might have better tracking and eye AF. In this video, I am more looking for a potential successor of the S1H. Many are waiting and are not fully satisfied with the S5IIX.

@@CameraRig as far as I know S5IIx had ALL-I and ProRes codecs + RAW via HDMI/USB. For me personally - RAW is not something I want and I will never use it. I shoot primarily alone or with a small team and nobody will want to fight with the RAW in post. The benefits do not outweigh the cons for most tasks. Dynamic range... I would say they are very similar and maybe the A7IV will be slightly better. The difference is so small that it is not worth mentioning. What Panasonic needs to make next is a faster sensor camera. The S5II/x is the best hybrid on the market but its sensor is from the A7III era. I really hope that they have something left to offer Sony in order to get something faster. The ideal one will be the 50mp A1 sensor but I doubt that it will happen. The 24mp from the Z6III is an option, maybe even a better one will be the 45mp from the Z8/Z9... Last time when they exchanged goodies Sony got tilt and flip screen for the A7rV and LUTs for the A7cII and models after it, than out of nowhere Panasonic got AF :D. Now they can give some other patents for a faster sensor and we are going to be happy.

@@SimeonKolev ah, I checked the facts regarding dynamic range of the A7IV. It is indeed very similar. I guess I am also a bit biased (which I don't like) www.cined.com/sony-a7-iv-lab-test-rolling-shutter-dynamic-range-and-latitude/ I like the ProResHQ codecs since they give you fine noise, close to RAW, still very big files with 1.6 to 1.9GB/s but it's very nice if you want to get back some structure of blown out clouds. But recording only to a single SSD is a bit of a headache. 🙄 Let's hope the next A7sIV will be great so Panasonic and the competition have to make a move! 😁

@@CameraRig you have to test the highlight recovery between ProRes and ALL-I 264/265 codec ;). I doubt it that there will be a difference. Use controlled environment like indoors with artificial light in order to have the same light output.

@@SimeonKolev yes, I did test it. You will get cubic artefacts from the compression if you push the highlight separation too much. With ProResHQ, you have detailed information and you can stretch the highlights more. You not have more dynamic range but you have less compression in ProResHQ.

@@rolandeyezz we might see more collaborations between DJI and Lumix. They already incorporated the Lidar autofocus to Lumix autofocus lenses.

The S5IIx offers ProRes HQ 422 (not RAW) which is also great. But RAW gives you definitely more latitute with the Z6III, but it might have less dynamic range. The S5IIx can record RAW to an external recorder, but this adds cost and the Ninja V can sometimes crash, so I would not use it for live events. In camera RAW, like with the Z6III is definitely useful. I hope Lumix will compete with the Sony A7sIII.

@@CameraRig Unless you want to use the metadata of the raw. You will not have more in the raw than in the log. The two only things you have in extra with raw is : 1) you can save the files and debayeurise it later with a new color science of the same brand as you can see it with Red or Arri Two brands wich develop an new color science and workflow with their new line-up. But you can use their new color science on their old cameras because of the raw. 2) with the sony venice 2 you will have a tiny tiny difference in the specular highlights if you debayeurise with the soft on your computer and not inside the camera reccording in log. Why ? Because your computer can use all its power to debayeurise while the processeur of the camera has to do it while meany other things at the same time. But at the end if you use raw you will have to develop it in Davinci and color grade it and there for develop it in log 😂 So i don’t think Raw make any difference in regard of mirror less camera and the contexte inside wich you use it :)
