I bought the Sony FS5 in January after spending a lot of time hesitating as to whether I should or not. After all, I have far too many cameras…no, I really do! I have my F55, FS7 (my main camera), A7SII, A7RII as well as many Canons, Blackmagics etc. So why get one? The key thought was seeing how it could really \u00a0fit into my work. The camera is lovely and so small – those aren’t reasons to buy one though. Most of my work is documentaries these days, and the FS7 is my main camera. The FS5 felt like the perfect accompanying camera for that. The more or less matching image, tiny form factor, great features. I saw it as a camera to always have ready to go, unlike my FS7 with all its stuff on it which takes time. The FS5 is a camera I could take with me anywhere when I am shooting and have all those high-end features and with proper audio.<\/p>\n
