hope ur better now m8 #stayindoors

Thanks Chris!

Haha I saw someone had liked some photos recently, got a big backlog of photos I need to upload too. It's a GREAT camera and I love it, can't really go wrong with it.

I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing at any point in my life.

Will hopefully try out a few more of the LUMIX lenses in 2023

My Takumar is running super warm think it needs to be UV treated.

Shoot a lot of videos there as that's where my partner is from (we visit her family a lot) - check out my LUMIX S5 ii review!

My pleasure, thanks for watching!

For me the S1H has the best image of any camera in its class but the value of the S5 is also un-rivalled. The S1H is also a lot bigger and bulkier... the other option is the BS1H if you can work with the form factor and don't need the stills capability (review here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rLOci8t0qMnQlmQ.html) Personally I've never noticed any moire / aliasing on my S5 footage - but I don't do a lot of super sharp work - I work with a pro mist often and use lenses like the DZO Film vespids. I think the S5 is still a great buy - and you can check out my general review of the camera here for more sample footage: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j9Gop9OInNXFg6s.html

@@EdProsser Thank you Ed, I meant to leave this comment under your main camera review! I appreciate these insights.

Yes I remember reading this, I like it too!

@@EdProsser Thank you. Subscribed and liked.

No this is actually all internal and most of the 50fps was captured in HD! But yeah the 50mm is a really nice lens, it's fairly smooth for a modern lens but the pro mist really helps too.

It's definitely more affordable than modern glass! The SMC Takumar is a superb 50mm.

@@EdProsser Have you used Leica R aswell?

@@Aviciiz I haven't - any good?

@@EdProsser Sadly not, been hearing lots of good stuff about them. Mostly how these lenses have a very ‘3D’ looking image

It's a great camera! If you're focused on image quality then it's a solid buy. If you absolutely need solid autofocus then maybe not the camera for you! OR wait until next year and see what Panasonic announces, rumours of a S5 MK2...

@@EdProsser Thanks for that! I may indeed wait to see what mkii brings... Would really like to have Lumix again (I sort of hated and loved G9 at the same time as I think Panasonic is much more user friendly with meaningful firmware updates trying to squeeze as much as possible from their machines, unlike Sony). And really liked all the noob functions like in camera focus stack and such which are sometimes just super fun to use;)

@@EdProsser amazon have it with black friday’s sales till tomorrow at 1700€ with the 50mm 1.8. I think it’s a good price and I would like to buy it but i’m not sure 100%. Do you suggest to wait another year? Will the price drop a lot if they announce a S5 Mk2? It would be really helpful your opinion and others too. I’m buying it to practice and do a short for a prestigious school of cinema that it’s hard to get in, so it has to be good quality short. I would love to buy in the future also the 24-105 mm that seems very nice, even with macros, have you tried it? Thank you :)

@@SilverHERO17 Hey! I think it's likely they'll announce something else next year - but you can also drive yourself mad with rumours and waiting for the next best thing. The way I see it, if the MK2 is released it probably wont massively affect the retail price of the S5 - it's already pretty low, maybe it'll drop £100-200, but nothing earth shattering - it's more likely they'll price the mark 2 much higher which will still protect the market for the cheaper mark 1. It'll probably have more of an effect on the second hand market - as more people sell their mark 1 S5 and upgrade. It's up to you and what you value - is it better to have a camera now and gain an additional 5-6 months experience shooting with it or wait another year for something you have no firm information on and may have no material difference on your ability to make films. The S5 is a great camera and you can produce stunning images on it - but 75% of that comes down to skill and technique. Having the latest and greatest camera kit wont automatically transform your work. So in terms of creating work for the school submission - I can't see how the mark 2 would improve your chances over the mark 1 - that'll be down to you and your own individual skills - lighting, editing etc. - having the mark 2 isn't going to change those things.

@@EdProsser thank you so much man!! Yeah i agree with all you said, i’ll have to practice with it to get the most of it. I really love your content btw i have watched and rewatched countless time all your videos haha keep it up!! :)

I have a vintage lens vid in the works - but I've lost my Helios somewhere amongst all my random kit - just need to track down where it's gone!

50. Then a 24 and a 85, but i don't like the ones that are available for l mount for video. One option is vintage lenses, another is the 24-105 or 28-70/24-70 options. The 24-105 is great with the ois and macro, but warch out for manufacturing problems causing coats to flake. I just can't with the 20-60 and the fringing and flares/splotches in backlit situations.

Unfortunately not it'd an old manual focus vintage lens

I think the man reading the book was shot with one on, you can see a bit of glow / bloom, not sure the others were

@@EdProsser thanks! This sold me on the lumix 📸 can’t wait to get it

I'm actually trying to get my hands on the 18mm, I've recently been shooting on the DZOFilm 21mm Vespids and have realised how much I love shooting people wide ... So I'd love to try the 24 as well

Yeah it's a good choice, I don't know about the best... that's subjective. If you need impeccable autofocus for street photography you might want to look at Sony / Canon.

Yes I use NDs and VNDs all the time - they're very important for controlling your exposure!

Unfortunately L mount is not compatible with micro four thirds

Nice how are you finding it?

@@EdProsser :( i'm working on an edit, so i just take a couple of pictures at home, but maybe tomorrow i got a change. Is a hollyday here...

With a simple m42 adapter to EF then MC-21 ef-l adapter

Yes!

It depends a lot on what you film and your style - but if you get the 35mm you can always put the camera in crop sensor mode to get closer to a 50. Honestly I find myself moving away from the 50mm focal length more and more these days in favour of wider shots.

​@@EdProsserThank you very much. It's a good stand and I think I would be a little limited with a 50mm.

Thanks!

I think shooting in 50fps helps... Settings - I think it was set to1-Area + human detection AF Custom settings: AF Speed: -2 AF Sensitivity: 0 Continuous AF - Mode 2 1-Area AF Moving Speed - FAST

Theres no adapter needed it's a native L-mount lens, so it goes straight on the camera

@@EdProsser Thanks for the info...

I've only used the sigma art line and cine primes - I'd say the sigmas are probably a touch sharper and maybe a bit more saturated / vibrant. I think these LUMIX lenses have a bit more character / smoothness and seem a bit more orientated towards video.

Do you mean the BS1H covered in my last review? I own the S5 but only tired out the BS1H for a few weeks - for me the S1H sensor has the edge, it looks a little less harsh, smoother - S5 is VERY sharp - which might be what you want - but it's easy to soften it up in post.

Unfortunately I don't think so, I believe that camera is a micro four thirds mount, this lens is the L-mount. Plenty of great MFT lenses out there tho !

I have an m42 to L adapter and also an m42 to EF adapter ring and then adapt that using EF-L adapter

Thanks! It's graded on Resolve, the grade uses elements from the Film Vision Powergrade, if you Google it you can purchase it and take a look, you can push a much more organic film look with that, but I tend to pull it back a bit.

@@EdProsser thanks man! I think the intensity of the power grade is perfect. Can t wait to see your next video.

@@duykhiemphan412 thanks dude! Stay tuned - got a review of the DZOFILM Vespid Primes coming soon. Will have some RED Komodo stuff coming later on as well. Anything you're interested in seeing?

@@EdProsser A video about how you shoot with Lumix full-frame cameras (setting, expose, profiles,...) would be awesome.

For sure, I'll add it to my list and work something up!

Thanks for watching !

@@EdProsser np

That's a good question and I guess depends on situation. I use the DZO most in professional situations as my main cam is the Panasonic EVA1 which is EF mount. I'd be super happy investing in a set of L mount lenses though if Panasonic released another cinema cam with the L mount.

@@EdProsser You're right, that IS a good question #answerplz

Yes, pretty much always shoot in v-log

@@EdProsser Awesome! Got you. Was it internal or you used a Ninja V or something? And Any V-Log luts you wpuld recommend I check out? Im coming from the Sony A7IV to the S5

@@TrenchfootSalvador yeah it's all internal! LUTS wise don't not use that many, usually the Nicest 709 LUT from Panasonic or the Film Vision LUT which is part of his Resolve Powergrade (google it) - this was all graded on Resolve with a modified version of the Film Vision film emulation powergrade. Give me a shout if you have any other questions!

@@EdProsser Most definitely, I really appreciate you, this video alone inspired me to pull the trigger and get the S5 (again) & leave Sony, haha. Had the FX3 & A7IV. Using the S5 yesterday, the quality is so so filmic & more pleasing than the Sony. Its like EVERY LENS on the S5 is like using a expensive Sony G-Master lens!

Yeah I think so, though I don't hate the warmth it's accumulated over the years. Love shooting golden hour portraits with it

I guess the 50mm is the classic! Not tried the 35, but you could also get the 35 and shoot in aps-c mode to turn it into a 50...

Just like you!

Honestly I've never run into issues with it, I don't shoot a lot of weddings / buildings with these type of complicated patterns.

Softer lenses and diffusion will help a bit
