Nice size with lots of lens choices.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Lumix S5 II is a nice size and all controls and buttons are well spaced. Lots of Sigma lenses are in L-mount as well as Panasonic. The AF is quick and multiple AF modes plus human/animal detect quickly find their subjects. The new phase detect AF is a big plus.

Beware, poor warranty support
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this camera while visiting the US and did not discover the 2nd SD card slot has a bent pin. Now Panasonic/Lumix wont' honor the warranty in Europe because Best Buy didn't give me the required Tourist Warranty Card, according to Lumix support. So now I can't figure out how to get warranty support.

Posted .Hello Leonard! Thank you for sharing your feedback, though we’re really sorry to hear about the trouble with your DC-S5M2 and the warranty issue. That must be frustrating, especially with the bent pin and the warranty complications. We recommend reaching out directly to Panasonic's European customer support for advice on how to proceed with the repair under international warranty or if they can help with alternative solutions. We hope this gets resolved for you soon! -C

DO NOT GET ANY OPEN BOX!!!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Let me start by saying that there is no shade towards this camera at all. In fact, I'll say that this is one of the best cameras in the market for vlogging...based on videos I'd watched. I couldn't see for myself as the product was missing pretty much ALL THE ACCESSORIES that were supposed to be included. Without the battery, I couldn't test to see if the camera & lens even worked or not. So, I contacted BestBuy support online & they told me to either do a refund or go to a nearby store to see if they have the missing accessories. So, I did that. The store closest to me told me to go to another store as they're more stock on camera accessories. This was after, the guy didn't listed to what I said & thought I wanted a refund (which I did not say). So I go to the other store & they thought I was buying it & I told them the situation. So, they told me to call BestBuy support. And they basically told me that I'm better off getting a refund. So, I got a refund. Bottom line, do not get open box from them & get it brand new.

No buyers remorse
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.No buyers remorse here. I was nervous of dropping down the money to get their camera but I don’t regret it one bit. Tutorials on YouTube and the workers helped me pick the camera I needed.
