Want to know the BEST way to setup your new Panasonic S5 mark ii for video? Well in this video I've done a deep dive into the settings and custom menu buttons to show you exactly how I've setup the Lumix S5ii for professional video work to get the most out of this brand new camera.
This tutorial was shot on my own copy of this camera which I paid for myself. I know information can be hard to find on how to set these cameras up so I wanted to make an in depth guide as to how I've set it up.

Just picked up s5 ii my first camera, aside from a smartphone. Can't wait to get good at using it.

@RoryandCasey Год назад

Nice one! Enjoy! It's a great camera!!

One of the best walkthroughs man! You actually explain what everything does and why it's useful, while other creators skip tons of settings because they don't know them. Thanks !

@RoryandCasey 11 месяцев назад

Thanks 🙏 I guess that’s the result of using them professionally rather than just for making RU-vid content.

Outstanding video! We bought 2 Panasonic S5 IIs and this video was clutch for setting them up for our church. Thank you!

@pfv3462 Год назад

I'm glad someone bought the camera to use at weddings! Then I can set the camera the same, to get the same results and user experience. I hope that many RU-vid videos will follow, so that we will quickly become familiar with the possibilities of this camera. The settings look logical and assigning them to the programmable buttons will add a lot to the operating comfort!

Well done mate, Very helpful. Saved me some time and effort. This camera is such a great deal in the uk. £2090 after a £300 trade in bonus with two lenses in a kit. The 50mm 1.8 and the 20-60 kit lens. If you had to but the lenses used you would pay around £750 so working backwards that makes the camera body £1340! Awesome. I wold recommend this camera to anyone getting into a system as they wont need to upgrade for pro work for quite some time. Well done, finally Panasonic. The S1H2 will be crazy good once it gets that n ew focus system. Still don’t know what took them so long had they introduced it in the last generation they would have sold a ton more units and got more market share. Anyway it’s here now!

Hi Rory, many thanks for your video, quite helpful to start setting the S5II. I note that you have not provided any recommendation for C1,C2, C3.1, C3.2 .... settings. Any recommendation for those ? I loved your idea to allocate the punch zoom to the red record button which duplicates with the normal shutter button.... Many thanks

@RoryandCasey Год назад

Thanks for watching! I've got C1 set to 5.9k 30, C2 set to 4k 60 and C3 set to 1080p 120. Hope that helps!

@Dokumentara Год назад

@@RoryandCasey makes sense: c1 open gate, c2 4K 60p and c3 ready for slow motion…. Interesting to note that you have no preset for 4k 30p as you probably extract from the open gate which seems to be the priority format. Also no preset for FHD 180p VFR slow motion as you probably get more flexibility from the FHD 120p. I very much appreciated your function buttons and quick menu features allocation, after further thoughts and comparing to others, I realize that you have put a lot of experience on those. Very helpful, many thanks.

@Dokumentara Год назад

Hi Rory, another comment on your great video: I am in love with your Red button allocated to enlarged video. A the beginning I was struggling because I was only getting the PIP central magnification until I read in the doc that you can change it to full screen just by turning the wheel ... It took me some time before as I was trying to play with the MF assist settings .... Just mentioning this as it could be useful to others ....

I definitely will mate. I used it at its first wedding last night. So far I’m very impressed. Still some nuance compared to the original s5 that I’ll figure out and then give my thoughts. I’ll definitely be making more videos on it. If there’s anything you’d like a video on let me know.

@RoryandCasey Год назад

At 8:25 in the video make sure that this setting has been correctly set to MOV. If it’s not then you won’t be able to access the higher resolution formats

@RobinParmar Год назад

Maybe you can help with a configuration problem. I think that most of us would set shutter angle ONCE and then forget about it, since a change during a shoot would alter the look of the footage. But it appears that the only dial settings put shutter speed (angle) on either the front or back dials. I would want aperture and ISO instead. Is there any way to do this? I don't want shutter angle on ANY button where it can accidentally get changed. Also, I don't see where I can set aperture or shutter angle to a function button. I think I am spoiled by Blackmagic!

@marcusmezzano Год назад

I have the same question 👍🏼

@RobinParmar Год назад

Hi, i just bought S5II, im wondering what sd card did u use for recording 5,9K? Im still confused what sd card to buy to be able record high res like 5,9K

@RoryandCasey Год назад

I'm still using V30 sandisk extreme cards and even at 5.9k they are still recording fine. It's all to do with the bitrate and none of the files have high enough bitrates that the older v30 cards won't work

@davenusapitu1147 Год назад

@@RoryandCasey thanks for the answer! When i bought these, the salespersons tell me these camera need V90 sd card, but when im look into the manual book, it says v30 should work well. Now im testing it with my drones V30 sd card and it works well for shooting 5,9K. Glad i know ur answer so i can saving up my money instead of buying high specs V90 card

@jorgoskatsimitsoulias8918 Год назад

Thank you for taking the time and making this video!!! :) I bought the s5ii last week for video work and I really like it! I am wondering though, when I work in the Manual video mode, I can´t get the automatic exposure compensation/correction to stop jumping around! (in your video it happens at 26:35 for example) It just stops changing when ISO is in Auto setting, but I just want the exposure to be fixed... I have looked everywhere in the menus and the manual but cant´ find an answer... Do you have any idea you can get a 100% manual mode for exposure? Thanks! And best greetings to Australia from Germany:)

@jorgoskatsimitsoulias8918 Год назад

I guess it has to do with the AE Lock function... But I can´t seem to get it work! Thanks anyways!!

@jorgoskatsimitsoulias8918 Год назад

Okay I got it 😂, the monitor brightness / backlight was set to auto and that was causing the monitor to change its brightness :) 😅

@RoryandCasey Год назад

glad you figured it out! I had the same problem when i first got the original S5... did a whole wedding thinking that the exposure was changing until I realised it was the screen brightness.

@raysmith5487 Год назад

I am having the exact same issue but with a difference.... in manual mode, the exposure keeps changing... I have everything in manual ... aperture, iso, shutter everything is in manual yet when I move my cam from a brighter part to a darker part ... the darker part automatically becomes bright. I saw the footage on my PC and it is the same. Any solution on how I can stop it will be a lifesaver. Also, I charged my new battery for the first time yesterday for almost 4 and a half hours and it was still charging. I was charging in the camera, but the red light on the cam never disappeared. Pls save my life !!! 😀

@RoryandCasey Год назад

It’s the backlight monitor setting. You need to change it off auto and onto a set brightness

@edgarso3175 Год назад

Hi Rory, New sub here. Please do a night photoshoot. I'm willing to get back into astro game and was looking to select what brand to go with. My initial thought was sony a7iii, but it's old. Lumix though, its a brand new camera, competitive price, but is it really good for night shots? I'm into night street photography as well as astrophotography. Maybe you could drop a few lines with thoughts about this. Cheers and best of luck!

@RoryandCasey Год назад

This new s5 actually uses the same sensor as the previous s5 which handles night photography very very well. I found turning the in camera noise reduction off actually resulted in less hot pixels on long camera exposures for Astro. For night street photography it will be great. I just used it at a wedding for video and in low light even backlit in low light the af was grabbing faces perfectly. It can pretty much see in the dark with minimal noise I’d say on part with an a7siii Way better than anything canon makes that’s for sure.

@edgarso3175 Год назад

@@RoryandCasey Oh cool, thanks for your speedy feedback. I am trying to figure out Lumix lenses and from what I can tell it's the S series lenses that I have to go for. Which lenses are you using for astro? I'm looking at a fixed 18mm f1.8, but saw a review that it distorts the stars. Perhaps advice on what has worked for you well in terms of lenses over all? I'm thinking getting some thing wide as well as some thing mid range, like 24-70 for day to day use (family and landscape). Just not sure if I should get the 2.8 or stick with a less expensive f4. Thanks again for taking the time. Your advice is priceless.

@RoryandCasey Год назад

@@edgarso3175 for Astro my preference is to go wider than 18 and also to use a fully manual lens. There are some great Laowa lenses that have very little distortion that can go super wide that are L mount For a mid range zoom... the 24-70 pro is an incredible lens and one of my all time favourite lenses to use. It's really expensive though. I'm using it professionally so I can justify it but if I wasn't I'd even look into the sigma 28-70 f2.8 especially now that sigma glass autofocuses well.

@darkmelon9192 Год назад

question, every time I change the photo style from standard to vlog on video mode, it also changes it on "photo mode"... does this happen to everyone?

@RoryandCasey Год назад

Yep it’s one of the unfortunate quirks of the entire S series. My work around is to have my video modes saved to the custom buttons. If I’m in C1 with Vlog and then switch back to any photo mode it won’t bring the vlog with it.

@RoryandCasey Год назад

I don’t use zebras in photo mode. I don’t find them too helpful as I’m shooting raw and you get a ton more highlight detail to play with. But I hadn’t noticed that yet!

@RuhkcusTV Год назад

@@RoryandCasey I was in the same boat prior to setting the zebras, while in standard picture profile, to 105. This resulted in being able to squeeze the most D.R. Out of the image in post while still having it look decent on the camera LCD. Do you just use the histogram when in photo mode to gauge exposure? Thanks!
