Dustin, I owe you one. I had my Af settings all wrong for talking head and the results were horrible. I was on the verge of selling the S5II and going with Sony, even though the Sony colors/skin tones don't look nearly as good as the Panasonic. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. I used your Human settings and the Lumix was ROCK SOLID in AF. Sony is good too, but the skin tones don't look nearly as nice and natural, nor is it as easy to use as the Panasonic. Your video came just in time. Panasonic talking head AF worked perfectly, no hunting, and wonderfully locked on, You made my day!

Thank you for this video Dustin. I just bought the S5ii used. When with the previous owner the autofocus worked fine. Went to a parade and the autofocus didn’t work ~30% of the time. This was suboptimal. I wa going to trade the S5ii in for a camera that autofocuses the LUMIX contrast DFD was slow sometimes. The DFD wobbled until it locked onto the subject. Ultimately the DFD worked. Not so fr the PDAF that so many of the reviewers talked about. The KZfaq how to set up videos are almost all video centric. I’m a photographer who sometimes does video clips. Lord knows there is a plethora of video choices. Many I don’t understand the difference between the choices. It is weird to me that the focus settings are to be found in the movie mode. Counter intuitive to me. Feedback. I think it is important for the viewer of this video to know where the function you are talking about is located. You show on the video where the function is very briefly and then move on. I had to watch the video and rewind several times and then stop the video to locate where you were in the menu. It would have been helpful, for me, if you continued showing the menu on the screen longer so I could locate the function you were talking about. Also verbalizing where you were in the menus would have helped. Saying I am now going to the movie mode, then focus, then AF CUSTOM Settings (video). Go to the dial and press the right side to get you into the choices available. I am hoping that the autofocus settings you suggest work for photography as well as video. After all, The autofocus settings are located in the movie camera icon section. I have set the focus up as you suggested and I’m going to take the camera out for a walk. I hope your suggestions help me with the autofocus. Lord knows, it couldn’t get much worse. Mask On Nurse Marty (Ret)

Any updates? My use case is similar to yours that the photography comes first and I am really curious about how the autofocus performance is in photography, especially after the release of firmware v3. If it is still unusable, I'll go with Sony A7 IV as it is 200€ more with Tamron 28-75mm or 28-200mm lenses compared to S5II + Sigma 24-70.

Great tips. Thanks so much. And - the intro video was beyond fabulous. I think I'll be switching systems and the S5IIX is a serious contender (for the time being, it's actually my favourite TBH). My question is - I suppose you can map focus lock to a custom button somewhere on the body? The reason why I'm asking this is (and BTW, I'm sure you noticed that autofocus did lose you some 6 minutes into the video, albeit for a second) that in certain situations, you want AF, but then when you know that your focus is in the zone and distance where your subject will remain, you don't want to risk distractions triggering wrong autofocus - for instance people walking in front of your subject or such? Or do you solve this somehow with the AF detection time (slow it down a lot) and/or distance setting?
@DustinArmstrongPro8 ай бұрын
No problem! Glad you enjoyed! So the camera tries to detect if you showcase something to the camera. That's why it sometimes loses focus because it tries to focus on my hands. You can turn down the subject shift sensitivity to combat this. However I've noticed when I do this that if the camera thinks it's on a person and I don't notice or while filming a youtube video as an example, it'll stay out of focus for a long time. Which I think is worse than it losing focus for a bit and coming back. I'm fairly certain though you can map AF Lock to a custom button. I haven't done it, but the camera is extremely customizable. Maybe try searching to see if another person has done it just to be safe. Overall though I'm very happy with the AF. Needs some improvements in lowlight AF performance but you can't go wrong with the S5IIX
