I just picked up an S5 and love it! great video, the colors that come out of this thing are amazing, vlog is so great to work with. My first video using it will be up soon :) keep up the great work.
Got my S5 for a month and I'm absolutely in love. Learning videography as we speak. Photos are amazing and the High Resolution Mode is a game changer. The 96MP RAW is absolutely insane.
I have also this camera since over a year now. And it made me very happy, and made me a lot of money to buy an s1h recently :) it's an amazing camera and I am very grateful to have it
@@OliverKingsleyMedia the sensor is far better for some things. It has a low pass filter, which is very useful for model and fashion photography. Very useful
Great video man, it's been little over a year since I got my S5 as well and I love it! Just taking my time to acquire some L-mount lenses as I go along
I just bought mine. I was working with a Sony A6400 and i am expecting a huge upgrade. I am only worried about how to deal with the focus on photo because on video i am used to make manual focus - i work with a blackmagic too. So lets see!
The S5 has been awesome for me. It's leveled up my videography skills and overall work flow. It's gotten me a ton of opportunties and it's been paying for itself. Been using it over a year now ands still going strong. Love the custom buttons switching super easy. Im currently looking at the sigma 28-70 f2.8 or a 24-105 f4. What would you recommend?
Honestly I think that 24-105 is the way to go. I constantly find myself using between 70-105mm and really like the look of it. Also, having that extra reach really comes in handy for run and gun videography work
I bet the 24-105 is a great lens! I can only speak about my experience with the 28-70 2.8 Sigma on my S5 and it has been amazing even for lower light scenarios. Just beautiful imagery out of it
Man fucking love this channel and how you talk..... Shit I gonna fucking subscribe to this channel and load a shit ton of comments in the future 😍👍 finally a normal talking person fuck
I’m a Wedding Videographer. It’s been over a year since I upgrade my G7 to my S5… Love the Cam. 2 only complaints. The horrible MicroHDMi and the Bad Autofocus. I almost switch To Sony fx30… but…. They tease the S5MK2 with FullHdmi port and facedetect Autofocus… damn… I will wait ti see if this leaks are true
@@OliverKingsleyMedia with my atomos Ninja V when i am recording if i touch the cable just a little bit, they lose signal and disconnect. very annoying, i missed a couple shots for that issue. buy love the image overall
Enjoyed the review Oliver, I'm looking hard at this camera and wanted to ask your personal advice. Right now, I think I can get the s5 with the 20-60, 85 1.8 and an atamos ninja v (plus accessories) for the same price as the s5 and the 24-105 used (or o can go without the ninja and save $400). I originally thought I want the one lens, the 24-105 because it just seems minimalistic and easy when running out with the family to shoot vacation photos or video a hike with friends. However, the other deal seems really sweet in that you get a buttload of stuff and your 20-60 shares a filter size with the 85 1.8 plus the prime is supposed to be crazy sharp. If you had to pick an option, which would you go for for a semi-pro hybrid shooter?
Depends on what subjects you shoot. A versatile zoom and fast prime sets you up for most situations. If you often shoot in situations where you need a lot of reach, the 24-105 is better. I use a Canon EF mount 24-105 and either the Sigma 18-35 or Panasonic 50mm f1.8 depending on the situation, and this suits any client work like businesses, shops, cafes etc. The 50mm is a wonderful walkaround lens for fun and portrait work.
@@raksh9 interesting! I study Persian and it's always fascinating to see the connections to Hindi that came by way of the Aryans. It's a fascinating history we never heard about in school in the US. I agree with you I think I will go with the deal that is thebody thay comes with the free 85mm they have rn and buy a 24-105 for general purpose
@@karikaru When I got my S5, there was a deal for the 20-60 and a bonus 50mm, all for about 25% off retail, it was an awesome deal. I bought the Sigma EF-L adapter so I could use my EF mount lenses on it, too. The S5 is a fantastic camera, with beautiful image quality, superb video and many pro features. Autofocus isn't great with adapted lenses, but native lenses are fine. You can find secondhand Panasonic 24-105 lenses fairly easily to save money, and who would say no to a bonus 85?
If you just need autofocus, go with the fx30. If you are happy to learn manual focusing, there are way more benefits if you get the S5. S5 has better stabilisation, Full Frame, Shutter angle & more features that you would find on a traditional cinema camera.
I was on the same page until I searched about the image Quality of S5, you can't just compare them. Also I got it new for 1499 and panasonic 85mm 1.8 for free. Also, I dont really care about autofocus!
I have Panasonic s5 for a year now.. My big problem is i need to shoot jpeg streat out of the camera..for people portrait. But i cant get the right settings for the best picture profile ,white balance and skin tone.. I but the camera because of you gays.. Blease give me the best settings for my camera. Thangs alot for every thing ^_^,,
I really like the portrait picture profile. I would say to make sure you are shooting in Manual mode so you have the most amount of control. Avoid boosting the ISO unless you have to, otherwise that will make your image more noisy. Most of the time, I just white balance by looking at the screen and changing the kelvin values until I think it looks good. Later on, you should look into shooting RAW and learning how to edit the photos on a computer. The difference between shooting JPEG and editing a RAW file, the results are crazy.
Not gonna lie, compared to the sony and canon cameras, the autofocus is pretty terrible. That being said, I do use it a fair amount. For things like talking heads, and simple shots, it works fine!
Your aren't helping my desperate want to move to full frame...really find the s5 appealing, I'm very much photography, but dying to venture into video work seriously too... Running a Canon M50 at the moment as it's where my budget could get me at the time but low light is a bit of a kicker.. personally find it pretty grim above iso 600/800 at a push
Yes you can, although it can sometimes stutter a bit when you start moving, especially when it has been looking at a locked off image. It feels like a little bit of a delay before it starts moving.However, when editing, it's barely noticeable. Once you are moving it works great.

Awesome! How has the S1H been? Do you notice any difference in image quality?

Picked up the S5 a month ago and like it so far. Still have to play more with it to get max out of it, but if’s been fun :)
It’s an absolute beast of a camera!
Great video man, it's been little over a year since I got my S5 as well and I love it! Just taking my time to acquire some L-mount lenses as I go along
Thanks man!
perfect. Lumix for ever.
Love it!
love the frame within a frame in your A roll shot!
Thanks! Really appreciate it!
Great review!
Thanks!
Been a Canon guy since 1983, just bought a S5!

Can you show how I program a button to go in and out of crop mode? Subscribed
Hold down the button you want to customise, and then select "image area of video" :)

I’ve never had any issues with the micro HDMI, but some useable autofocus for more dynamic shots would be great hahah

@@raksh9 thanks for the advice! Is your name a reference to the Shohnoma?
@@karikaru You're welcome. Not a reference to the Shohnoma, but something of perhaps equal historical antiquity, the Rakshasa.

Hi nice video! What should I choose S5 or Sony a6700? Is it really that big the difference between apsc and full frame? Thx!
S5 all the way!!
What do you think about baking in rec 709 conversion lut into the footage in the S5II - I need quick turnaround could it be helpful
Hmm, not really a fan. I enjoy the colour grading process too much :)
I am very confused should I pick sony fx30 or Lumix s5 for short filmmaking
If you just need autofocus, go with the fx30. If you are happy to learn manual focusing, there are way more benefits if you get the S5. S5 has better stabilisation, Full Frame, Shutter angle & more features that you would find on a traditional cinema camera.

What ND filter do you recommend?
I believe I use a pretty cheap K&F ND. Have had any issues with it!
@@OliverKingsleyMedia thanks
Thanks for the insight, how would you rate the autofocus on the S5 as compared to its competitors?
Not gonna lie, compared to the sony and canon cameras, the autofocus is pretty terrible. That being said, I do use it a fair amount. For things like talking heads, and simple shots, it works fine!

It's a great camera. Going up to 4000 iso and having a clean image has helped me on almost every shoot.
hey are u able to use boost ibis for moving shots
Yes you can, although it can sometimes stutter a bit when you start moving, especially when it has been looking at a locked off image. It feels like a little bit of a delay before it starts moving.However, when editing, it's barely noticeable. Once you are moving it works great.
@@OliverKingsleyMedia in the manual its not recomended to move on boost is :)
