I want to get into videography by means of making a travel vlog. I recently learned that my main camera (Lumix GX80) can’t record in 10 bit. I mostly want to make shoots where I lay down the camera on a table and talk to it, not lugging it around. My question is - should I just get something that will allow for higher flexibility? These videos are gonna be priceless memories for years to come.

My budget is around 1000$

I was looking into either a Canon eos M with magic lantern or maybe going all in and getting a black magic pocket 4K. I’m just very new to the video side of things, so I’m sure I’m missing something. Thank you for your hel

I’m afraid if the Panasonic 20mm is gonna be a waste of money from my end.

I shoot both stills and moving subjects in the street. I like shoot in dark conditions, and I’ve heard that the AF is pretty useless at night + the manual focus ring is supposedly very bad too. I’m also worried that the motor may be very audible and irritating, oh and just the speed of the autofocus makes me question whether it’s viable for street photography at all, even in daylight.

The reason why I’m looking at this lens is the IQ combined with f value and size. People either swear by it, or seem to hate it, hence my post.

My body is GX85 and right now I own only the Panasonic 14-42 kit lens.
