Here are a couple more S5 videos.

Great job getting the groom's reactions and brides walking up the aisle, change of speed was nice too, both videos really excellent! Excellent audio too.

Thanks!

Both very pretty. Really nice exposures and compositions on all the prep and couples photoshoots. Great skintones, foliage color, and nice moody palette

Nice. That's challenging lighting to film (the first wedding). Direct sun on face mixed with shadows. More important than pixel peeping your footage, the overall feel, pacing, and shot selection and variation, work nicely.

Thanks Peter, yes the ceremony on that one was SUPER challenging... but I felt like all the cameras worked well.

As a gh5 owner I’d welcome the full frame but I’m REALLY concerned about the Lowe Rez viewfinder . I use the viewfinder ALOT on the gh5 to maintain critical focus and exposure . Someone with an S5 : how does the lower Rez viewfinder compare? Is it as useable as the one on the gh5? Thanks

Firmware update that adds RAW output to the S5 will be released on Nov 24th:

"These firmware updates will add 5.9K, 4K, and Anamorphic (4:3) 3.5K 12-bit RAW Video Data output over HDMI to the S5 so you can record Apple ProRes RAW on Atomos a NINJA V."

I asked this question a few pages back and was told that it is still usable for critical focus. Definitely a concern of mine as well but I'll be renting this camera to test the EVF myself before taking the plunge.

Hopefully this will also remove the 30 minute recording limit from the S1R and S5. ( they might overheat, but that's why you buy the S1H )
