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.
