I find this video one of the most helpful tutorials on the Panasonic S5 for beginners! It's really useful, except for the audio getting a little muffled here and there. Thanks for sharing!
you are a star I have been a Canon user for 5 years and never touched anything else and this s5 confused the hell out of me and you have saved me weeks of research with one quick video thank you so much
Thank you so much for this video. I’m an amateur film maker using GoPros and iPhones for the past few years and just purchased the S5 yesterday to up my game. Your video gives me the confidence to really have some fun with it.
Thank you! I just got mine today and upgraded from my entry level t7 and it has been overwhelming! ❤ thanks for making this easy and simple to understand
Thanks so much for this! I got this camera to improve the quality of my videos as I've been shooting on my phone but felt kinda overwhelmed when looking at all the dials and buttons and menu settings. Really appreciate the clear walkthrough, feel much more confident in starting to use it.
THANK'S A LOT!! EXACTLY THE VIDEO I NEEDED! JUST ONE THING PLEASE DO SOMTHING ABOUT YOUR "AUDIO" IT BECAME REALLY HARD TO FOCUS ON WHAT YOU WERE SAYING!
I stumbled upon your video, while trying to figure out how to get started with my new S5. I'm absolutely new to this type of camera. Your video is just what I needed. You explain it very well. Now the next phase is learning how to use those settings... As others have mentioned, excellent video with the exception of the not so good audio here and there. I'm sure you are aware of that though... I'll be checking out more of your videos soon! Cheers!
The #1 (top) card slot holds the higher speed card. iI The #2 (bottom) card slot holds the lower speed card. I So. just remember that in any race, Number 1 is the faster car, runner, horse, swimmer, etc. Makes sense to me.
Your summary of the different modes is really useful (sports? shutter priority -- portraits? aperture priority). I know there will be other variables, but it's best to keep it simple at first.
Thank you so much for posting this. I just received my s5, yesterday. It's my first, what I consider to be, high end camera. I didn't even know how to put on or remove lenses. I can tell this is going to be lots of fun.
Thank your this video. I’ve had my S5 for a year and so frustrated with learning it that I was about to return to Canon. Your video is very helpful. Think I’ll keep it. Sorry you didn’t explain more about multiple exposure. I’m not sure that I understand the two cards - my two are the same SD cards. Again, thank you.
I have a video on my to do list to talk more about the special features and a full menu walkthrough in more detail so keep an eye out. As for the two card slots and the difference between UHS 1 and UHS 2, here is one of my tips and tricks videos explaining: ruclips.net/video/yRFukBqFuVM/видео.html
Thank You so much, I have been a bit overwhelmed with all the settings I am going to check out the phone app next this app is going to be great for HDR photos and all tripod shots.
Just purchased an S5! I look forward to more video tutorials, this was very helpful. It's been years since my last photo class. I am really excited about this. Also, no sweat on the sound - things happen! I do have, maybe, a silly question about lenses. For example, I purchased a macro lens for my s5 - will the settings I use for my kit lens vs. macro lens differ? I am sure slightly depending on my objective or do they stay the same?
That is a great question! Settings will differ depending on your objective or goal. Just ask yourself what look you are trying to capture and what you need to change to achieve it. Happy capturing!
Thank you… I recently bought a lumix s5 and I am still overwhelmed with its capabilities. You broke it down nicely. Can you do a tutorial on different shutter speeds and iso combined with 24fps to get that cinematic exposure along with the aperture?
Hi! I just got this camera to try and boost my photography skills and was very overwhelmed, so this was so helpful! I have just two questions - I live in a very rainy environment and purchased this camera partially because of the weather sealing. How good is the sealing - can I shoot outdoors in the rain? My previous camera was a rugged point and shoot so of course I don't expect to be able to dive underwater with this one as I can with my point and shoot, but can I take pictures with it if the rain is consistently coming down? Also, do you recommend a UV filter or is a lens hood good enough for protecting the lens from UV light and any dust/dirt? Most of my shooting is done outside in nature so I want to make sure I'm protecting my lens, even though it's dust and water resistant. Thank you so much for your fantastic content and for your time!
While it does have great weather sealing, I would still get yourself a rain bag and use it. The weather sealing is more so if you got caught in a drizzle or a mist or a gust of dust. I also do recommend a UV filter that is coated with a repelmax coating to protect it further from dust, moisture, scratches and fingerprints. Let me know if you have any other questions!
This was really helpful, I thought i had to buy a UHS II SD card to get 180 frames, cause I wasn't accessing the menu, but the S&Q button did it. I still need one for the 10 Bit 60 frames 4k, but I don't think I'll be using that a lot.
While this flash does not have a built in flash option, if you have an external flash you can switch it off if you feel it is not needed for a shot by using the power switch on the flash itself.
Yes I absolutely agree! This was a brand new set up for me and did not realize the lapel was obscured during portions of my video until after I no longer had the camera in my possession. smh, it was definitely a learning moment.

While Panasonic has always been more video-centric, this camera was designed for both photos and video. The S1H is the video focused model in the S series. This walkthrough is for beginners starting with this camera to get a better understanding to get started. I have more Panasonic videos on the way that go into deeper detail on menus and specs as well.
Thank you for this video! It had just enough information for me to actually feel comfortable with the camera. I still have lots to learn but I am not looking at it as alien technology now lol I can now go and start using it and learn as I go!

thank you so much , I just got mine today was struggling , but thanks to you I am not now

same here I just got mine today
Just got ours yesterday.
I’m coming from LUMIX FZ1000 and ZS100. And the S5 is arriving soon as a gift. I’m excited. Thanks for the tutorial. I’m excited for this level up!
Thank you so much for this! I've really struggled to find a good walktrhough video and this was exactly what I was looking for
Thanks so much, super helpful, most videos I see prior assumed I knew more than I did to start!

totally amazing...thank you so much...just took mine out of the box...SO excited
Great overall review of the s5 thanks so much
Thank You so much, I have been a bit overwhelmed with all the settings I am going to check out the phone app next this app is going to be great for HDR photos and all tripod shots.
Thanks for the video , I like how simple you made it to understand . Just purchased my S5 and currently stressing out on it .
If you have any questions, let me know!
@@Shutterbug101 I have a question , what program would you recommend for v-log color grading ?
I am a big fan of Adobe Premiere Pro CC
Thank you, this was very helpful

I will add it to my list!
Super clear. Thank you!
nice review
I really have difficulties to set up the S5 for flashlight photography using TTL. Could you make a video about that?

Useful video but the sound is so horrible also the light. To present a camera is too bad
Have you tried this camera at night? I just purchased an S5 for night photography but unfortunately it's pretty much due to the rear display lag
I'm interested in your lavalier mic - is there a link to where I can purchase one? ;)
Helpful, thanks!
when is the microphone review coming?? lol. I kid. Very helpful
Informative video but the audio is really ffff up
Thank you for the video. The one thing I can’t seem to figure out is how to zoom with the camera. Can anyone help?
These cameras have manual zoom lenses, so you physically turn the barrel with your hand to zoom in and out!
Great video!! Do you know if you can turn the flash off in manual or A mode. I'd like to be able to turn off in custom 1, 2 or 3. THX
While this flash does not have a built in flash option, if you have an external flash you can switch it off if you feel it is not needed for a shot by using the power switch on the flash itself.
How to set APSC mode for still photography with FF lens? I do not see that option anywhere in the menu.
As far as I know, it is only in certain video options.
What is the difference between fine and std?
Those would be compression modes for JPG, Fine compresses less and has a slightly better quality.
So we can use a 2.5mm Wireless remote?
I don’t know about the mm size, but this is the model you want to look for : DMW-RSL1 and DMW-RS2GK
A wireless remote does use a port, a wireless remote uses Bluetooth or WiFi.
The access ports for a mic or earphones are 3.5mm.
❤
this was very helpful and I've had my camera fro 3mpnths and just found out the A mode wasn't auto. learned so much very helpful thanks
Do you know how to get the shot to automatically display after taking?
If you go to menu>gear tab>4th symbol down>auto review, you can choose how long you would like your image to come up after it was taken.
Great review although I think you need to change where you mount your lapel mic
Yes I absolutely agree! This was a brand new set up for me and did not realize the lapel was obscured during portions of my video until after I no longer had the camera in my possession. smh, it was definitely a learning moment.
@@Shutterbug101 great walkthrough video though. I bought an S5 2 days ago and still getting familiar with it.
How has not one video tell you how to zoom in
One thing I noticed is if I have it in IA I can't use the filters. Do u know if there's a way to be able to use the filters with IA?
In iA, the camera has all the control. If you want something close to auto while still being able to use filters try using the P mode.
Although your video is helpful specially for beginners, but, as a professional, your video has a really low quality sound and picture. Why?
nice nails gurl x
good info. sort out the sound. it is annoying :)
Yes I absolutely agree! This was a brand new set up for me and did not realize the lapel was obscured during portions of my video until after I no longer had the camera in my possession. smh, it was definitely a learning moment.
Had to stop watching due to the muffled audio from n the first minute or so.
Great video. Horrible audio.
This is a video-centric mirrorless camera. Next time try to spend a little more than 2 minutes on this aspect of the camera.

This is a great video for dummies like us, but the sound is rough. 🥹
I know! 😩 unfortunately I could not re record. Lesson learned!
Thank you for this video!
It had just enough information for me to actually feel comfortable with the camera.
I still have lots to learn but I am not looking at it as alien technology now lol
I can now go and start using it and learn as I go!
