that's a 600 dollar prime lens, making the camera just about 1.3k. this is not some crappy kit lens that you often find with camera bundles.
i am surprised this is not get more attention, personally speaking, this is a much better deal than the previous MFT sale.

Killer deal and I love mine, run it with the BMD Video Assist 12g and images are fantastic, especially with the LUMIX glass… but newer sigma glass L-mount glass is exceptional too… I don't use it for vlogging but AF has been snappy and clean for my needs. Got it for $1,699 during Xmas sales, at this price with the 85, it's a smoking deal. Richard Wong does great comparisons and demos with the S5 on YouTube, lots of AF stuff on different glass for those that are curious.

It's improved from previous generations of the camera and varies depending on situation. I would recommend this side by side comparison to Sony A73

Seems like a helluva deal and the AF seems to be much improved with firmware updates.

I think I'm going to pull the trigger. Can any L-mount users recommend another lens to pair with this to start?

The 50mm is my go-to. Or get the 35mm. Love this camera, wish I'd waited for a deal

FYI the GH6 is about to be announced on February 22nd, and will probably be around $2.5K. https://www.diyphotography.net/th...uary-21st/

That being said, not sure when it will start shipping.

I'm gonna jump on this. The G9 is close to perfect. Its mft and the AF is good enough for me, but a FF version of the G9 like this S5 would be even closer to perfect. It's so much easier to use than my A7iii or xt3.

These seem to sell for 350ish on ebay for used ones so I think it's worth it. Worse thing that happens is you can flip it for the same amount you paid for it should you not like it.
