Setting Up Panasonic S5 For VIDEO - A Deep Dive

[@BioGear]

I'm into computers, not cameras, so learning filming hasn't been easy for me. Thank you for making these videos, my S5 has been the workhorse of my YT channel and content like this helps me grow :) Your lighting looks amazing btw!! Subbed!

I have an S5 on the way and am second guessing the purchase. Can you explain what you're struggling with?

[@DrewCreal]

@@kevinh1976 I have a small KZbin channel and the S5 looks great but in terms of ease of use and for filming oneself, my Sony ZV-1 smashes...only problem is that it only records in 5 min increments at 4K 30fps, the S5 can do 20 minutes...or longer I think. Im starting to feel like the S5 was made for an actual camera operator, and not a content creator that films himself. That said, I haven't invested a ton of time into learning all the details of the camera. But to directly answer your question AUTOFOCUS!!!

[@zbigniewvolkov7952]

What a great video! Quick, on-point and very informative. I had to create a playlist to save this. I will look through your other videos as well. Keep it up like this, too many KZbinrs fill their videos with fluff that takes ages to go through. Thanks for the help!

[@RockWILK]

Such a great, helpful video. I just got an s5, and this got me to everything I need to be able to get back to work using this along with my other camera, and then just learn on the fly about the deeper parts of this camera, but for now, I have all my custom buttons hooked up for my basic settings, and I'm off and running. And I tested the autofocus and it's surprisingly good! I come from a Sony a6400, and this didn't disappoint me at all, at least in the way I work. In manual focus mode, when you grab focus with the "a/f on" button, it locks in so fast and then you can shoot in manual mode. It's perfect for that kind of shooting, and as far as the continuous af, it's definitely not quite as "locked in" as my Sony, but I haven't messed with the settings yet, but it actually works pretty well using your settings. The truth is, other than talking head stuff, there is no camera on earth that is truly reliable with continuous autofocus, tracking autofocus, etc. All cameras hunt now and then, and for professional work, nobody is always relying on autofocus. But for talking head stuff, as long as you're well lit, this feels pretty great so far. Anyway, thanks so much for sharing, much appreciated. Oh, and the 10 bit, 422 4k files play really well in Davinci Resolve. At least on my machine. That was a relief as well. Thanks!

Good auto focus/tracking is very important in my work so I'm researching to see if the S5 can do it. I used to focus manually all the time but there are no second takes when I'm in the field.

[@kaicao4211]

Thanks for this in-depth video! I really like how you get straight into the details! Could you explain if there is a noticeable difference in video quality of a lower bitrate MP4 vs a higher bite rate MOV file for a layperson? Cheers!

[@JoshCameron]

Thanks for watching, Kai! Always try to keep my videos straight to the point 👍🏼 So in terms of a noticeable difference, you shouldn’t see “too much” difference to the naked eye, however when you got to edit an MP4 file it won’t be anywhere near as robust as the MOV files due to the lower write rates. 4K 10bit MP4 files at 100mb/s will still perform way better than any a lot of the other brands out there since it’s still a 10bit colour format and 100mb/s is respectable. However, the 150/200mb options in MOV will definitely give you the most flexibility. Hope this helps!

Awesome video! A quick query, how do you adjust the shutter angle to 180 degrees once you set it to angle/iso in the menu? My GH5 was a doddle but I cant find it anywhere on the S5. ... Sorry for the noob question! Edit: Ok sorted it, you have to be in shutter priority mode within video mode and then you use the top rear wheel to adjust...

[@JoshCameron]

I always shoot in full manual so I’ve never had an issue finding it! But yeah shutter priority and M would be the best bet so you can access to that option! Glad you sorted it Rob!

[@CarlPendlePhotos]

Great video as always. Can I ask what sd cards you use. I’m finding when shooting high burst photos my cards buffer a lot. Thanks

[@JoshCameron]

Hey Samuel; thanks for the kind words! So when i shoot natural, I normally don’t tweak at all (maybe a little more saturation to taste but that’s it). When I use cinelike D I will do some adjustments to the contrast and saturation, so a little more in depth comparatively to natural. Hope this helps!

[@SamuelHardenberg]

@@JoshCameron That helps a lot. Thank you!

Gracias 😊

[@HGQjazz]

Hey, Josh! I know you don't use Zebras, but I was wondering if you knew where VLOG clips? At what EV level does VLOG clip? And as far as zebras go, is 100% relative to the profiles you're shooting in, (as a percentage measurement should be)? Example - 100% in standard is clipped, 100% in vlog is clipped, even though the 100% in vlog is at a higher EV. I hope my curiosity in this matter is coming across. If this is the case, Sony and Panasonic obviously disagree on what these percentage values are based on, because Sony can be set higher than 100%. Anyway, thanks for your content and being a LUMIX advocate. It's so nice to take a break from the Sony cult once in a while! Ha!

[@CodaSessions]

Hey buddy, V Log clips below 18% IRE, and around 85% IRE, with V Log L (on the GH models) clipping around 80% IRE; there's a distinctive roll-off between 80-85% for specular highlights and whites. Different manufacturers use different Gamuts and Gamma curves for their own Logarithmic colour space. Shooting in Log will be most useful for camera-matching between different manufacturer models, or for expanding dynamic range in a WELL-LIT scene. Using any Log profile for underexposed images or low light scenarios will give you noisy results, lacking detail. Also worth noting that the bit depth matters - a 10-bit image will give you the necessary lattitude to naturally correct the colour space without any compression artifacts or chrominance noise, if you're shooting in 8-bit, you're better off using the 'Flat' profile, instead of a Log curve, as you won't have to push/pull the saturation intensity too hard. Also White Balance is SO important when shooting in Log - you'll notice colour contamination, exaggerated chromatic abberation, and untameable colour casts on neutrals (black, grey & white) if you get it wrong!

[@CodaSessions]

@8KisOK Spot on! Couldn't have put it better myself. I have noticed that S/N ratio gives between 12-13 "useable" stops on dynamic range, but there's still detail in the lowest range, if you're careful with your exposure.

[@HGQjazz]

@8KisOK @Coda Sessions Thanks y'all! Much appreciated!

[@Tom_Hart]

I‘m wondering if shooting V-Log is really that much of more work in post compared to Cinelike-D. Since you have to touch both I guess in the end it‘s neglectable if using a conversation LUT 🤔

[@JoshCameron]

To be honest, the difference in workload is minimal. However, you can always spend a lot longer tweaking log footage so I guess it gives you that option !

[@HGQjazz]

True, If I am going to use a LUT, I might as well be in VLOG. I think I will eventually adjust (add contrast & saturation) CineD and just start taking it straight out of camera.

[@raksh9]

If your workflow for Cinelike D includes a conversion LUT, then v-log isn't any more work, really. I do the standard practice of applying REC709 conversion LUT, then tweak for correction, apply secondary LUT for looks like Eterna, then tweak a bit further if necessary. This is my workflow for Cinelike D and v-log, and there's no difference in the amount of work needed.

[@KobusGevelspar]

Let’s see if you have a video about vlog and editing..

[@joelelias3136]

Hey Josh! I have an S5 and I'm quite liking it. But I have to say that I absolutely hate the slo mo in it. The bit rate is so low that the 1080p modes look like 720p that's been upscaled. The visuals all end up looking really muddy. 4k 60 is a tad bit better but it is a real shame that anything above 60 is virtually unusable in a professional setting. Any idea if this is something that can be fixed with a firmware update in the future? Is there anyway to contact panasonic to find out?

[@JoshCameron]

Hey Joel, I get what you’re saying here. The S&Q function isn’t something I use very often but I can definitely tell the difference in quality when I do use it. My advice for now would be only to use it when you can give a decent amount of light to the subject you’re filming. Normally you can make a lower birthdate/ lower res image look 10 times better with good light. Hopefully with firmware they might bump up the codecs a bit to beef out the high frame rate options, but that’s something we’ll have to wait for I guess to see if that ever happens!

[@andersistbesser]

If you want professional bit rates buy the s1h or the gh5. The s5 is more like a g9 than gh or sh. S5 has half the bit rate options a gh5 has , of course you can see a difference if you really want. Normal viewers will never see it. Most cameras you can buy at this price point dont even reach the s5 specs so i guess you really ask for too much from such a cheap camera.

[@davidgautier5088]

Hi Josh its me again, you say AF looks more natural with these settings but for me, its already so slow compared my old canon 200d that Id prefer the AF to be more reactive. So can you advice me the best settings? Thank

Hi what is the setting I have to use for the Autofocus tracks the eye while filming.

I have set AFC and human detect, but it does not focus automatically only if I press the shutter button halfway down. What am I doing wrong?

[@JoshCameron]

Have you got the AF Set to "works all the time' instead of 'only while recording'? That could be your issue. Also, I don;t think the S5 supports EYE AF, only face and body unfortunately

[@jcproductions007]

Hi Josh, what happens when I have filmed in two different frame rates, one in 4k 25fps, one in 4k 50fps ? I would like to include both in the same timeline, so what timeline frame rate speed do I select at the beginning when creating a new project and what output speed do I select to make sure it plays correctly, and plays both normal motion and and slow motion ? Total beginner, cheers.

[@JoshCameron]

Okay so what you need to do is make a 25p timeline and then you can slow your 50p footage down to 50% speed, and your 25p footage will remain 100% speed :) Hope this helps!

But in 4k60, C4K is higher resolution becasue it is cropped in and has more pixels on the wide side. But like you said its indistinguishable

Very handsome, but great information

[@functionalfitness1013]

Holy moly you talk fast! Any chance you can slow down a bit?

[@JoshCameron]

Hahaha i'm working on it!

[@sosiehtsaus5357]

Can someone help? I have a skin tone issues with my Panasonic S1 and with S5. While shooting V-Log in 4k with 50p over HDMI to either Atomos Ninja V or Atomos Shogun Inferno I'll get blotchy skin tones with magenta blotch artifacts. Also while recording internally on SD Card with 50p | 200M | LongGoP. 50p is unusable as of now. For all who ask themselves, yes, I knows how to expose v log correctly. It's really sad as the 4k 25p looks gorgeous. I'm on firmware 2.1 with the S1

the top IRE line isn't 100IRE, I think its 110.

Your content is great. I would appreciate it if you could go a little slow. It gives us time to make the change to my camera too.

[@JoshCameron]

Thank you very much! Of course, I'll try to slow down the delivery next time :)

[@magnusgotander3954]

I dont want to be a "pain in your b ..." but please think about the speed you are talking to us. We are not, or at least I am not, "intravenous" in my brain and we need some time to absorb in between, to think about what you are trying to tell us. The good content that you providing for us is worthy to really get "caught up" in our consciouness as well. I am a big fan to your chanell (no doubt about that) but breathe . 🤗 Even Gerald Undone is slower. Sorry .. forgive me ..🥴

[@JoshCameron]

Hey Magnus! I try to deliver the content as seamlessly and as “straight to the point” as possible. Apologies that it may be a little fast for you, but that’s just how I talk unfortunately! I couldn’t slow down as I’d feel like I was being unnatural 😂

[@slappop7082]

I watched this video with the S5 in my hand and frequently stopped it to try the setup for myself and to absorb what he said. I think it's best to let Josh be Josh; he's doing great as it is.

[@magnusgotander3954]

I don't want to "change you" but its impossible to catch up with a thought which will last as an knowledge. I also stop and repete but in the long run its to much for me. I have 2 S5.s and know them quiet well but still, has been a great fan of you all the time and still are. I do understand all what you are trying to tell us and feel mutch about the same as you about working with the S5 and thats whats so rewarding to compare with my own thoughts and experience. I just have another thought about whom this is for then some other.

[@magnusgotander3954]

As untother comment by the way is that I recently baught the 70-200 f4 and its so good to handle so I did'n need to buy a manual follow focus because you can change the zoom (video) just with your thumb. A wonderful lens. Would also like to buy the 24-105 as well in the nearby future. With the 16-35 It would be a complete set up.🤗

[@magnusgotander3954]

One thing I really would like to have is a much higher speed then 7-9 pictures/sec for stills with sufficient buffer capacity. Non has this in the L-Mount serie.(read also the S1) I had needed that for an upcomming work with a dancer and moore.

[@masbass1011]

I love my S5. But it has let me down many times. Mosrly In live concert situations. If there is smoke or flashing lights, auto focus takes a vacation. If you combine manual with autofoucus in these scenarios, its a recipe for disaster. Best to go full manual. I see people on KZbin doing focus tests. Nobody does flashing lights or smoke.

[@charliemcgrain]

Look into the lens.

[@JoshCameron]

Yes Charlie, Sorry Charlie

[@charliemcgrain]

@@JoshCameron Great video Many thanks.

What's this NSTC you speak of? 😂
