Hello and welcome to your weekly dose of Panasonic S5 Propaganda... if you haven't already noticed - I love this camera!
The reason for making this video is to attempt to dispel the negativity around certain areas of this camera.
I actually thought that I would be limited when I got the Panasonic S5 and instead I actually feel a lot more free than I ever have with my video production.
The S5 is such a powerful camera for video and I know that people know this, but everyone's sitting on the fence due to the fact that there's a lot of worries regarding its AF performance. I don't understand why everyone is so afraid to manual focus!
Don't get me wrong, I was also sitting on that fence for a long time and I was quite worried moving from the Sony AF to Panasonic AF, but the minute I got the Panasonic S5, those thoughts just completely escaped me and this camera just outshines in every single way.
I really hope that this video helps you perceive this camera in a different way. The S5 has many strengths that aren't spoken about and if you just allow a slight change of perspective then you can really make some amazing things using this system.
Thanks for watching - and please subscribe if you haven't done so already!
