Walkthrough & Set Up | Panasonic LUMIX S5 II 

Glad it was helpful!

Thanks for watching! We're glad it was helpful.

That will let everyone see that Panasonic can't focus again.

Awesome! Thank you!

No problem! Glad you enjoyed it

Thank you! Great to hear.

Same! Did you happen to figure this out??

Great question, the menu structure and most of the options will be the same or similar, so this walkthrough can be used with the Lumix S5 as well.

@@WexPhotoVideo I confirm I used it for my S5 and had no problem to discover it trough your video

Hi there, welcome! We have two articles on selecting the right lens for nature photography which could help you make the best choice for what to pair with your Panasonic camera. One on wildlife: www.wexphotovideo.com/blog/buyers-guides/best-lens-for-wildlife/#panasonic And one for Landscape: www.wexphotovideo.com/blog/buyers-guides/best-lens-for-landscapes/

Hey Ben, you can if you have the latest versions of Photoshop or Lightroom. And you can convert them if you're on a MAC to regular RAW files.

@@WexPhotoVideo hi there thanks for your reply. How would I go about converting them? I tried looking into Adobe DNG converter but funnily enough it had the same issue. Thanks for any help in advance

@@bentaylor4948 We had the same problem - so we put them on a MAC and then select all, convert. You should be able to do it in Photoshop too

Hey Oscar, you can if you have the latest versions of Photoshop or Lightroom. And you can convert them if you're on a MAC to regular RAW files.

Hi Marc, great question. There’s two answers to the question about quality, the first is the quality of the data, resolution and information recorded, the second is the look & feel of the final picture when played back. Firstly in terms of the quality of the image data in the recording and the final video file there is no difference between 120fps and 60fps if you are shooting in FHD 1080, you get the same colour space and latitude in post, but bear in mind at 120fps the file recorded will be significantly larger than one recorded at 60fps which will take up more memory card and hard drive space. The 120fps rate is FHD only and is not an option when shooting in 4K so there is an image resolution difference there if you are shooting a 4k project and wanted to add 120fps footage using the same camera. The second answer is about the look of the final image. 120 frame rate is used primarily for slow motion and at 120fps the shutter speed has to increase to 1/240th sec to freeze fast moving subjects. This works for slow motion but could look too crisp if you used for standard-speed, playback each frame is recorded with minimal motion blur to blend from frame to frame, by contrast in 60fps the ideal shutter speed is 1/120th sec and at 30fps you would shoot at 1/60th sec so you can imagine how much more motion is recorded per frame. Ultimately the recording frame-rate and shutter speed combination is a stylistic choice and results will vary in relation to your output frame rate for your final edit, but rest assured there is no loss in data-quality when shooting at different frame rates on the S5 mark II. Hope this helps, any other queries send them our way.

And we cannot wait to see the X when it comes out :D

@Wex Photo Video fact. I have one on pre-order. Unfortunately for you, elsewhere, as you guys are not in the EU anymore.

Hey John, yes. You would need a lens but someone in one of our stores could definitely help you with a set up :)

@@WexPhotoVideothank you!

Hi Mark. These modes are accessible via the Mode Dial on top of the camera. The Film Camera looking icon is where you'll switch it into Video mode, whereas modes A, P, S and M are your Photography modes. You can then assign modes C1, C2 and C3 various customised settings for you to switch to your favourite settings faster without having to select them all all the time. Then you have S&Q for your slow motion and quick motion frame rates. Hope this helps!

Live cropping is pretty simple just about anybody can figure that out.
