How to fix cricketing in the audio on s5mkii?I use rode shotgun mic and record on sd (if that matters) and there is a weird high pitched cricketing/pulsating noise/buzz. While video is goated, the audio issue ruined (made audio annoying to work with) in 2 of my films :/
>>4514153Panasonic cameras have a lot of weird failure modes. Bad reliability. EMI issues (chirping and clicking audio) mean the mainboard is starting to fail or your mic and cable are the problem.Try a new mic AND cable (borrow/rent). If issue persists sell camera ASAP, local classifieds so no return policies, and say you only used it for photos. Buy canon/sony from then on.
>>4514164Shit :/ what camera you recommend for video?
>>4514202wrong question to b asking. figure out if it’s the mic and/or cable first
>>4514206Its not a cable problem and its both on rode and internal mic
>>4514211bigger. firmware up to date?
>>4514164This. If your camera is fucked hock it off to some dumb nigger. I do it all the time.
>>4514202Not poor? Can you afford a canon r5? -> Canon R5 or R5IIKinda broke? Can you admit most video specs are in the same region of retardation as using a 100mp camera for 4x6 prints? -> Nikon Z5II
>>4514211panasonic quality strikes againim sorry if it was /p/ that told you to buy the s5ii. we have a deranged panasonic shill living here aka menu system autist. he tells everyone lies about canon and sony’s build quality (projecting) supported with cherry picked user-destroyed cameras, lemons, and botched reviews from known bribed youtubers. however it is panasonic that has the ridiculous failure rate and unreliable weather sealing. sony ff products are really good, but they outnumber everything that isnt canon ff combined (sony ff and canon ff are roughly equal and trade #1 bragging rights yearly) so some failures are inevitable. whats important is the failure rate. one busted panasonic is statistically the same as a few dozen busted sony and canon cameras. and to be frank, since they aren’t worth a lot or used as heavily by professionals they tend to not be complained about as loudly as someone’s lemon r5ii. just never buy panasonic again. i know their arbitrary video features like dci and open gate seem attractive and retard youtubers make a big deal but you can always frame wider and crop. resolution is irrelevant for video unless you’re such a serious pro you’re pushing hours upon hours of footage to another department for more work and need the absolute framing consistency and extra res for vfx and keeping rigging on the outside of the final crop, and in that case you’re definitely not using a fucking panasonic except as a crash cam. bonus: sony, canon autofocus actually works. shit, even nikon and fuji have better autofocus than panasonic.
>>4514153Can't you use a notch filter? Anyway some s5ii have this issue because the nips engineers are absolute boomers with hearing isues
>>4514153don't use in body audio
>>4514153Shoot video with whatever you have and get a H1 (whateveristhenewestiteration) recorder for audio. It's cheap small and does the job.
>>4514164>>4514255>>4514726what kind of mental illness is this?
>>4514153>most reliable and well made lumixSell it and never use scamasonic again
>>4514767here is the same schizo samefag again
>>4514153Could be some bad capacitors or the mic is effed.Made me remember back in the day how NVIDIA 10xx series graphics cards at launch used cheap capacitors that caused coil whine that in many instances had an audible BZZZZZZZZZZ coming from the GPU that would get increasingly worse under load. This wasn't a problem for normies with USB microphones, but gearfags (like yours truly) who has always preferred dedicated audio equipment suffered because the electromagnetic interference made my microphone unusable when connected to a even a shielded high-end sound card. I could not use voice chat at all without angering people.
>>4514842What was wrong with a USB-attached DAC?
>>4514853Nothing, but I had an ASUS STX which is an excellent card still to this day and it saves a lot of desktop space plus less clutter.
>>4514857USB DACs are pretty small and as you mention, are going to be far better isolated than any internal, but it's good to see you aren't contributing to e-waste. The STX was a top of the line internal card back in the day. What OS are you using and do they keep the drivers going? I also remember my GPU would cause interference with my mic and people would also get mad. Had a 980Ti and 1080Ti, not sure which one did it.
>>4514859It is still a top of the line sound card. The only current cards that come close are "gamer-centric" sound blaster RGB LED garbage. I believe there was an update that made it easier to install drivers for them on windows 11. Previously I had to safe boot and do all sorts of tricks to get them to work, but I believe we don't have to do that anymore. Either way the cards are a steal as it is a buyers market and normies don't care in the slightest about them anymore. It is fascinating just how little interest there is in that sort when you compare it back to the 90s and some time into the new millennia where it was heavily marketed. From what I understand Microsoft killed off hardware based audio rendering because it was revealed that a ton of errors and system crashes were due to badly optimized drivers from Creative.. a trend that hasn't really changed much.
>>4514861The STX might be good for an internal card but it is likely not going to test well versus USB. The autist at Audio Science Review reviewed the STX II and found it to be very fiddly with mediocre performance. Couple that with iffy drivers and they really aren't a deal unless you are going to build an XP machine. When MS killed off hardware audio, add-in cards lost a lot of reason for their existence. Not that I miss EAX or CMSS, but Aureal 3D was cool and cards could do stuff like handle different wavetable sample sets for MIDI. But now that we have these multi-core multi-GHz CPUs, there's no need. Though I do remember when offloading audio processing to a sound card could save CPU cycles and get you more FPS. I had the Creative competitor, the Titanium X-Fi HD and yeah the drivers we ass. If sound cards ever make a come back, it'll never be a Creative Labs one, that's for sure.
Still better than snoy
>>4514164My R6II's audio is fucked up not even 2 years later. Internal and external. First I could put the right channel as mono but now the right channel also fucks around. They also took away raw multiple exposure on the Mark II. All brands have their problems. I'm still waiting for FF 3rd party lens support.
>>4515914Its really only sony that has any semblance of reliabilityAs long as it came out after the a7iii and a7riiiAnd you don’t use the shutter as a dusr cover
>>4514255>and fuji have better autofocus than panasonic.he keeps saying this but it's such an obvious lie to anyone who has used both Fuji and Lumix.
>>4515925>i couldnt afford an x-e5: the post
>>4515942Nobody wants x-e5 bro
