    Great camera. Great look and feel. Handles nicely. Other than not being up to par with competitors' autofocus system, autofocus is good enough.

    This is an amazing camera, the video quality is outstanding, the pictures are as well. It’s built like a tank and it should last for many years to come.

    The camera has been great so far, but I was unhappy with the fact that I purchased a brand new camera through Best Buy and when I got it home, it appeared to be an Open Box item. It was not packaged as new and the custom settings were already preset by someone else. No issues with the camera, but I do take issue with the fact that Best Buy refused to make this right.

    With a few upgrades the S5 becomes a powerhouse

    Incredibly happy with my S5 which has been used mostly in a studio environment recording videos. I did make a significant upgrade to its capabilities by adding an Atomos Ninja V, which I highly recommend if you plan to use it for video. My main complaint at the moment is the apparent lack of accuracy from the in-camera level gauge. Not even Panasonic has been able to tell me the tolerances so far, but I have had my case escalated and am waiting to hear back regarding this issue. Aside from that, I've purchased a fotodiox pro EF-L adapter and a canon 16-35mm f2.8 lens (very lightly used) for MUCH less than the Panasonic PRO lens (which is only f4, I believe) and I couldn't be happier with the results.
