I did this quick fun video with my cousin for the RODE Reel contest: https://www.rode.com/myrodereel/watch/entry/4854
It was shot on a Panasonic GH5 + Sigma 18-35mm. I used a Zhiyun Crane + Panasonic 25mm f/1.4 for the last shot (where the AF was seriously lacking to keep anything in focus at all).
Even though I ended up shooting pretty much everything on a tripod, I grabbed my GH5 to use for this instead of my GH5s. I just like having IBIS (and ETC) more than having the low light capability of the GH5s which I've found is a bit overrated as I tend to not shoot above ISO1600.
Doing quick shorts like this made me realize how I like the idea of "run/gun" (having IBIS!) and just making it happen. I'd always want to theory-craft and get everything perfect, but that would always cause me to never go out and actually shoot anything at all. So if there's a lesson in this, it's that you should gear up and just go out there and shoot! :grin:
