Yeah, if you have to walk backwards and it has to be professional-level results then that's absolutely a time when you need to pull out all the stops. I haven't really seriously tested the EIS on the GH5, but I do remember playing with it and it was more stable than the IBIS alone, which makes sense. If you can get gimbal-like or gimbal-near performance then it sounds like that will be a real advantage for those key moments. I bought one of those phone gimbals and I think I used it about 3 times ever. It was such a PITA to have to run the app to connect to the gimbal, and the stupid thing lost the horizon gradually as you were panning. When you need to shoot fast to capture things happening in real-time that faffing is the last thing you want! -

And the utter lack of it has me admiring Ripley on Netflix right now. I’m partly thinking the Amalfi coast should be in colour, but the rest is definitely working for me as a B&W production. Of course it would look shite if the coastal stuff was colour whilst the rest was B&W but chapeau on this 8 parter, I think it’s great. Sorry it’s not a Joker II comment 😛 -
I should add that anything that does require a tripod such as full length ceremony and speeches IS being captured by the S1H on a tripod.

Purely walking backwards in front of a couple walking towards me at approx the same pace. Tried it previously with the gimbal and of course that works perfectly. Tried it with just the S5ii IBIS and with/without current EIS with mixed results. The new level looks 👊 Job done so good I sold the faffy gimbal and instead, from next week, I’ll just assign it to a custom setting et voila. The rest of the day, ie, everything else is IBIS only which is perfect for the job. I do not have the time to tripod every shot and a monopod also gets in the way so a super steady handheld shot is key for me and IBIS alone with the S5ii achieves this. I’ve even held it 2-3 minutes previously and whilst you can tell it was not on a tripod, it’s not far off and there is no real camera movement. I’m not a camera movement kind of guy so don’t talk to me about panning etc 😛
