    Great video Marri, I recently switched over the shooting with an S5. One thing that I like about changing the dial rotation ( 3:30) is that if you display the histogram it now moves in the direction you rotate the wheel. I have the histogram on one of the Exp Comp function button so that I can quickly display it and tweak the exposure and then turn it off again. ISO is on the control dial

    Matti; great video and very helpful. Panasonic stands out to me as one of the better camera companies allowing many features for the customization of its camera menu systems. The ability to customize the Q-Menus allowing one Q-Menu for photos and another for Videos is simply great! Is this a feature of the S5 only or can this apply to the G9 also?

    I’ve got a small but needs to be fixed issue on a brand new S5. Service & warranty says I have to send the body abroad for checking, to evaluate the time it’s off from action and if the matter goes under the warranty or not. Don’t mind too much if it goes under warranty or not, it is a simple thing to fix, but the time it takes for the whole process worries me. Would you have any experience in Lumix after sales or warranty practices, what can one except? If I’d send the body, would I have to have a holiday for weeks or months?

    This video looks so good and explanatory that I would like to understand it, I usually read the translation that youtube does in the subtitles, but in this case only the Vietnamese language appears, and when I translate it, it definitely has nothing to do with what you speak, UA-cam made the mistake of subtitling you as Vietnamese when the language is English

    Not sure if this is a pointless phobia, or a practical concern, but I find the swivel screen on the S5 to be vulnerable. Because the screen is flush with the base of the camera, and only connected to the S5 body by a small pivot, I fear there could be excessive leverage if it rested on a hard object.
    Not having owned a swivel screen camera before, only tilting varieties, is this a problem or does it exist only in my head? The screen on my camera already has a slight vertical rock on the right, and I've begun using a tripod plate to lift it away from any pressure.
