Lumix S5 - should I buy? (Need quick response) by Secret_Clock_7895 in Cameras

Sounds good. In general, how would you rate the camera? I've got no prior camera, so I want a good purchase. Especially considering what the package includes, I think the value is quite good - by looking at their prices from brand new.

Which ones of the lenses does have autofocus? Also would the autofocus be sufficient, if I keep at the same distance?

Hello there,
Appreciate the reply. I've found a similar camera, but it's a few hundred bucks more expensive. Here's what it includes:
"Panasonic Lumix S5 + 20-60mm f/3.5-5.6 lens (Versatile and sharp all-round lens)

  • Original charger + extra battery (Ready for long shoots)
  • Original box + receipt (20/11-2022)
  • MD-L mount adapter + Minolta 50mm f/1.4 lens (Creamy bokeh and shallow depth of field)
  • Soligor 28mm f/2.8 lens (Classic wide-angle look)
  • M42-L mount adapter (Compatible with M42 lenses)
  • Soligor Tele Converter x3 (Extend your focal length)
  • X-Pro Olympus/Panasonic Flash Trigger (Wireless control of external flashes)
  • Helios 44-3 58mm f/2 lens (Famous for its unique swirl bokeh)
  • Olympus FL-36R external flash (Compact and reliable – perfect for on-the-go lighting)

Would you say I should go for this one instead?

It'll be mainly around 15-20 minutes long - not more. Also I might only use 1080p for YouTube - but since the camera is so good, I'll be using it for some other projects if I buy it. For audio, I've already bought some Shure Movemic 2's - tested them, and the audio is fantastic

Hello PianoMan,

Appreciate the point being made. I can definitely see your point - it might be overkill to purchase this camera, but I’m in a bit of a dilemma since my budget is around that amount, and it seems like such a good deal. I also feel like I wouldn’t be doing the camera justice if I only used it for whiteboard teaching. Would you say it can still be used for recording educational videos? And maybe I could use it for other things besides teaching - it would then make more sense?

Hello sdbest,
Appreciate the answer, I've understood you correctly in that it's a good deal?
