Derek confirmed using the GH5 as his primary camera in a Creator Handbook interview, upgrading from the GH4. He noted its 5-axis in-body stabilization and the wide-angle shooting style he uses for on-location documentary work.

Justin Brown
Justin Brown
Talking-head / YouTube setup teacher

His main YouTube studio body. He pairs it with a Metabones Speed Booster and an EF-mount Sigma 18-35mm to behave like a wider full-frame zoom on the Micro Four Thirds sensor.

Stewart Carroll (Stewart and Alina)

Talking-head / Travel-vlog & gear teardowns

His primary camera. Same body Justin Brown uses for the Primal Video studio — the GH5 is unusually long-lived for a 2017 Micro Four Thirds body, partly because Panasonic's bit-rates and codecs were ahead of the competition for years.
