[@dlyon9673]

Thanks! This is very helpful.

[@ToddWhiteStudios]

You're welcome. Glad to help. Let me know if there's anything else you'd like me to cover in a video.

[@fledits]

Thanks for this! I couldn't figure out why my exposure was in auto all the time. Finally I can shoot completely manual!

[@ToddWhiteStudios]

Yay!! Glad it helped. I’ll be making more videos like this. Let me know if there’s anything particular that you would like for me to make a video about.

[@francissosing]

I still appreciate this video sir. I have the original S5 and I've used it a good number of times but I still need good refreshers like this

[@ToddWhiteStudios]

Thank you for the kind words. Still have mine as well. 😉

[@Indo_chef]

I didn’t know about number 4.

[@ToddWhiteStudios]

Glad you learned some thing. Let me know if there’s something else you would like for me to make a video on.

[@aviagurman921]

Hey, thank you for this video. It’s helpful. Can you advise how to put the camera on drumroll auto view settings so I can view the photo taken automatically after taking it? Thank you

[@BlueDeepSeas]

Very helpful and also for users of the previous generations of the camera such as the DMC-FZ300

[@ToddWhiteStudios]

When i shoot video in V Log the output video has grains why is that, am i doing something wrong, plz guide me here.

[@ToddWhiteStudios]

Grainy video is usually a result of a high ISO. What ISO are you shooting at? Camera has 2 native ISOs at Vlog - 640 and 4000. Other ISOs can cause some grain but not much. I don't get much grain untill I shoot at 10,000 or higher ISO. Even then, the ISO is not too bad.

[@KaranJinwal]

@@ToddWhiteStudios I think it’s beacuse of dual native ISO I would have to set that

[@CharlesWolfwood]

Hey Todd, is there a way to make the lcd screen show a preview of the last photo taken after you take it? I hate having to press the preview button every single time to view the last photo taken.

[@ToddWhiteStudios]

yes. In photoo mode, Go to the gear menu...the first camera menu and there you will find Auto Review. Click this and set the duration that you want the preview to last.

[@1doublem]

@toddwhitestudios Hi Todd, I saw you helped Charles set the auto review using the gear button. Mine won't let me make the change. Says "This menu can't be set". The next row will allow me to set constant preview but I don't want that. Can you help? Tha ms so much!

[@regbanks7888]

Yeah I agree.

[@bilaldilliwala786]

yellow box setting when i toch display yellow box come how hide random not use apurture speed iso becouse box resize

[@JB_inks]

Is it worth configuring the settings in M mode for photos, and then the M video mode, or use C1 and C2 etc? Just bought this camera yesterday and it's a little overwhelming! I'm a hybrid shooter so I want to be able to switch back and forth and have the camera remember all my settings. When you change the create video combined set, does it matter what mode your dial is when you choose this?

[@ToddWhiteStudios]

Hello! Congrats on getting the camera. It's a great camera. As far as changing the creative combined video set, does not matter in what you change this. It's a global setting. Personally, I stay in and use M all the time. I shoot very consistent in my settings. The only thing I use C1 and C2 for is to set FPS to 30 and 60. Other than that, I am in 24fps. I always use shutter angle in video and never switch to shutter in video so that is universal as well. Hope this helps.

[@JB_inks]

@@ToddWhiteStudios it does, thank you

[@16bit_nerd]

.mov includes only an older video compession standard based on h264 (avc)...even in 4:2:2 10 bit is not better than 10bit mp4 which is based on much better compression at 10bit... in mp4 you can record 4K 10bit at 60fps, in mov only 30 fps

[@flaviopresutti]

Hi, I got the S5 and when I switch from video to photo mode the settings change always, how do I keep the settings with every mode? Thanks for the tips!

[@ToddWhiteStudios]

The main change is to switch the creative video mode options to the video icon. Then, for example, when you’re in photo mode like M for manual, do all your settings like aperture, shutter and ISO. Then when you switch mode dial to video mode and set all the settings for video like shutter, aperture, ISO and even picture profile, those are set and won’t change when you switch back to photo. When you switch back to photo, it will be the other settings you setup for photo. Then you switch to video and it will be the video settings you setup. Does that make sense? Help?

how to change iso to menu dial on lumix s5 when attaching rig?

[@ToddWhiteStudios]

Sorry for delayed response. Go to the Cog menu, then the 3rd option down which is called the Operation menu. Choose dial set. Set the Control Dial Assignment to ISO. That should do it. I have all my cameras set that way. So helpful. Thnx for watching video.

[@kanatov7]

Hello Tod! Could you please advise me on how can I open (get) resolution 6K available in Lumix S5? Thank you in advance!

[@kanatov7]

Todd

[@stuff_i_liked1815]

For video? You need to record to an external monitor. I think there’s another hacky way to do it with burst mode or something. But maybe Todd can clarify.

[@ToddWhiteStudios]

So internally, you can do up to cinema 4k (17:9)...no 6k. The S5 does not shoot 6k. You can do 5.9k RAW over HDMI to the Ninja recorder.

[@kanatov7]

@@ToddWhiteStudios thank you!

when I switch between Regular video mode (with MOV as my default setting) to S&Q mode, it switches to MP4. When I go back to my regular video it has switched back to MP4 as the file format. Am I doing something wrong?

[@ToddWhiteStudios]

that is odd. Mine is in .mov in S&Q. I have my regular video mode at .mov. I swirtch to S&Q to get 120 or 180fps option. It stays at .mov. I just switch to FHD 24fps to get the options above 60fps. I tried forcing what you are seeing and can't make it happen. Are in you M or C1 / C2 that may be locking in a setting
