Since I've had the pleasure of trying out a lot of different lenses available for the L-Mount, I thought it would be good fun to rank them using a tier list I made.
I've used multiple different primes, zooms and cine lenses for the L-Mount with my Lumix S5, S5II and S5IIX. I feel like I have a good grasp of what lenses I like, and what ones I don't.
I really hope this video is helpful for you guys, and hopefully it'll help to inform your next purchasing decision!

After trying out pretty much every cage on the market for the Lumix S5II and Lumix S5IIX, I think I've finally found the perfect one.
The Falcam F22 cage system is incredible and has a whole host of other accessories that help to make your life so much easier. I genuinely can't believe how good the Falcam F22 system is, and I'll definitely be adopting it into my regular workflow from here on out.
I would highly recommend checking out the Falcam range of accessories if you use the Lumix S5, S5II, S5IIX etc!

There's many options in the $600-$800 price category when it comes to prime lenses for the L-Mount, and the two brands that seem to dominate here for both performance and weight are Panasonic and Sigma.
The Sigma I Series primes are definitely newer than the 1.8 Primes from Panasonic, with two new additions that have only just been released.
I wanted to compare the Panasonic S Series primes with the Sigma I Series Primes to see who came out on top in terms of image quality, weight, autofocus and everything in between.

There has been so much innovation in the tech space over the last few years that it's pretty hard to find a camera that isn't amazing, and for around the $2000 price point, there's a whole host of options.
Getting into photo or video can be daunting as you start to tally up the cost of Cameras, Lenses, Accessories, computing, and everything else you might need to get up and started, and with the current economical situation, I think most people are looking to get as much for their money as possible.
I genuinely think that Lumix delivers the best value for money proposition in today's camera market, and that remains throughout their lineup of Mirrorless Cameras and compatible L-Mount lenses.
I was an early adopter of the L-Mount, and in just three years, I have seen this system become one of the most viable camera systems to invest in, both for quality and price point.
Thanks for watching!

The Lumix S5IIX can record ProRes Internally up to 1080p 50fps, and while that's not the most eye-watering spec of this camera, I definitely think it adds a massive appeal to this camera.
The Lumix S5IIX can also record ProRes up to 5.8K via the USB-SSD function, but ultimately since many things are still delivered in 1080p in 2023, I thought it would be good to put the internal ProRes codecs to the test.

I'm pretty late to the party since the Sigma 16-28 has been out for a while now, but nonetheless I still wanted to make a video about it.
The Sigma 16-28 stands to be the only lens of its type for the L-Mount, and is the only constant F2.8 wide angle zoom with AF that we have in this ecosystem. This in of itself makes the lens pretty untouchable, and I would say that it's almost perfect.
I put the Sigma 16-28 F2.8 to the test with my Lumix S5II and my Lumix S5IIX, shooting both video and stills, and it's 90% there with just a few little teething issues.

Shooting anamorphic is super fun and I'd definitely recommend trying out an anamorphic lens at least once! This new lens from Sirui is absolutely superb and is easily my favourite anamorphic lens that i've tested so far.
The Sirui 35mm T2.9 Carbon Fibre Anamorphic lens has a 1.6x squeeze ratio, meaning that your horiztonal FOV becomes 22mm. It's super small, super lightweight and very easy to use with the Lumix Full Frame lineup of cameras.
All footage you saw in this video was shot with the Lumix S5IIX and the Lumix S5II.
Thanks for watching!

The Lumix S5IIX is the first camera in the S5 lineup to have ALL-Intra codecs internally.
This makes the Lumix S5IIX a solid choice for most professional videographers... However, can you really tell much of a difference between All-I and Long GOP?
In this video, I delve deeper into the Long GOP and ALL-I codecs that are found in the Lumix S5IIX, and there's some image quality comparisons along with a post-workflow stress test as well.
If you're unsure about whether to buy the Panasonic Lumix S5II or Lumix S5IIX , then this video could help!

The Lumix S5IIX is an extremely capable camera that can deliver many Codecs both internally and externally. I wanted to build this Lumix S5IIX cine handheld rig to accommodate both ProRes via SSD and ProRes RAW via HDMI.

I've finally been able to get my hands on the new Lumix S5iix and since I've only had it a couple of days, I just wanted to share my first impressions. There were new specs announced, a date for when the Lumix S5ii's RAW upgrade Key will be available and a European price reduction on some of the S Pro Lenses.
So far, the Lumix S5iix is even better than I imagined, and the array of video codecs makes this a worthy upgrade from the Lumix S5ii.
I have so many videos to come for the Lumix S5iix - including in depth codec and bitrate comparisons, ProRes Video and post editing workflow, RAW comparisons and more.
Thanks for watching!

The L-Mount ecosystem is so diverse now, with so many great lens options from both Lumix & Sigma. There's also a number of third parties that are actively producing L-Mount options as well, so there's really a lot of choice for people who use Lumix cameras.
BUT, there's just one lens that I feel like we're missing for the L-Mount, and it would be great if Lumix were the ones to make it.
Let me know your thoughts!

I have so many L-Mount lenses now and the collection keeps growing, but there's 3 lenses that I've been using constantly so far this year.
These three lenses always end up in my camera bag, and they're the perfect fit for the Lumix S5ii and the Lumix S5.
If you're just getting into the L-Mount ecosystem, or you're already invested but want a new lens to play with, then hopefully this video will give you some useful insights!

Being as lightweight as possible has been super important for me recently, and that's definitely reflected in my setup with the Lumix S5ii.
I've tried to keep things as stripped back as possible, only using the things I really need for my shoots.
There's a few accessories that I use all the time with my Panasonic S5ii, so I thought it would be interesting to talk about those things, and also about my mindset when using this camera.
Hope you enjoy!

Shooting anamorphic video is something that I'm sure most of us have wanted to dip our toes into. It gives such a cinematic shooting experience that most people fall in love with instantly.
I've shot with a few anamorphic lenses now on my Lumix S5 and S5ii, and there's a particular lens I'd definitely recommend as the best one to get started with if you're just getting into anamorphic.
The world of anamorphic shooting gets very expensive very quickly, so it's great to see brands like Sirui really pushing for more affordable options in this space.
Most people on YouTube have tried and raved about the Sirui 50mm T2.9 Full Frame anamorphic lens, and I absolutely love it as well, but I think this lens (the Sirui 35mm F1.8 S35) would be the one I'd personally opt for out of the two.
There's still so many pluses to shooting S35 for anamorphic video, and those pro's definitely outweigh the cons for me.

Photography has been dying for quite some time now, and that's really down to the fact that a lot of sites are now pushing more and more for video content.
Camera companies ultimately have to listen to the consumers when they begin producing their next camera because of course, they want it to sell. Photography has got to a point now where it's sort of plateaued in terms of what technology can do, and you can get amazing results from DSLR's made years ago.
Video on the other hand is improving at lightning speed now, and since social media is so hot on video content, it means that the demand for video production has gone up drastically.

It seems that most reviewers missed this out when they looked at the Lumix S5ii, including myself. The AF system does indeed go back to contrast detect autofocus when you shoot in framerates of 50fps and higher in Full HD (1080p).
I've had a lot of people reach out to me asking if this was the case, and while I haven't seen any official spec sheets to state that this is the case, I decided to test it for myself and it is evident that you lose PDAF in 1080p when shooting at 50fps and higher.
For me, this isn't a big deal at all since I never shoot in FHD, like, ever. But for those out there who wanted to utilise the higher frame rates and get the full sensor readout in 50fps then this could be a stopping block for you.
Ultimately, I love Lumix cameras and this channel is dedicated to providing as much knowledge and info on the ecosystem as possible.
Thanks for watching!

Cine lenses definitely have their place in the video world, in fact I'd argue that they're one of the most important pieces of gear to own if you're doing larger budget productions.
The issue is, not many people are doing larger scale productions, and the reality is that most of us are solo shooters and are making short and snappy content for online distribution. So, I wanted to compare the footage from the Panasonic S 35mm F1.8 Prime lens to the footage from the Irix 30mm T1.5 cine lens to see whether you could actually tell the difference.
I was so impressed with how well the Lumix 35mm F1.8 performed with the Panasonic S5ii, and to be completely honest with you, I couldn't tell too much of a difference at all.

Sigma have just announced the newest lens to join their DG DN roster of primes - The 50mm F1.4 DG DN.
This lens is designed specifically for mirrorless cameras, and is available for the L-Mount and E-Mount.
We already have the Panasonic S 50mm F1.8 and the Panasonic S Pro 50mm F1.4, so this lens fits nicely between them both as the midrange offering.
The AF with this lens works great with the Lumix S5ii, and their new AF motor technology makes the performance even better on the Lumix S5 as well.
Priced at around £850/$850, I think that this lens offers great value for money and would be my choice for a 50mm prime out of all the other options on the market.
Thanks for watching!

If you already own the Lumix S5 then you're probably wondering whether you should either upgrade and sell, or trade in for the Lumix S5II. I've used both cameras extensively, and while I do think that the upgrade is worthwhile in general terms, I think it's important to ask yourself whether the Lumix S5ii will give you more value for money.
The current deals on the Lumix S5 are incredible, and you can easily pick up the body with a lens or two for under £1500. With the Lumix S5, you're getting a full frame camera with incredible dynamic range, RAW output via HDMI and amazing ergonomics, so it's a no brainer.
There are some upsides to the Panasonic Lumix S5ii of course, but it's whether those upgrades are going to be beneficial for you and your workflow.

When using EF Lenses for photography with the Lumix S5ii, there seems to be a slight shutter delay even when you're shooting with higher frame rates.
Even though both the Lumix S5ii and the Sigma MC-21 are running on the latest firmware, it seems that there's some form of a communication issue (but only when using EF lenses).
The photos still come out looking absolutely fine, but it doesn't give me much confidence when I'm out shooting and the shutter sounds like it isn't quite actuating the way it should be.
Definitely something to make a point of, and hopefully this will be resolved by Panasonic and Sigma as quickly as possible!

Since the Lumix S5ii has amazing autofocus that is undeniably accurate with native L-Mount lenses, I thought it would be great to see how well it does when paired with adapted Canon EF lenses using the Sigma MC-21 Adapter.
I was actually shocked at how good these results were, and now I would definitely say that I would be very comfortable using EF glass with my Lumix S5ii, ,even if I needed reliable AF.
If you're a canon shooter, or you like how vast the EF mount is, then the Lumix S5ii will still give you amazing functionality despite the lenses not being natively L-Mount.

The Lumix S5ii has so many great features, but one of the more interesting additions to this camera is a function called 'REAL TIME LUT'.
The Real Time LUT function essentially allows you to colour grade your footage and bake that look into your file, therefore saving you a lot of time in editing.
There are some caveats of course, nothing is perfect, but it's definitely a cool feature that I think is going to be very useful for my workflow when I need to get edits out quicker.

It's a world away from their old Contrast Detect AF in terms of speed and accuracy, so in this video I wanted to go through the different AF settings found on the Lumix S5ii and Panasonic Lumix S5iix so you can better understand what each setting does and how it will affect your overall autofocus performance.
I recently tested the Lumic S5ii Autofocus against the Sony A74, and it performs surprisingly well when compared to the best in class, and that means that you can dial it in to behave how you'd like it to.
Thanks for watching!

The brand new Lumix S5ii boasts the best autofocus of any Panasonic camera to ever exist now that the company has moved away from Contrast Based AF and opted for a Phase Hybrid Detect system.
This means that Panasonic is now in the front running of autofocus systems with the likes of Sony and Canon's AF. Since I've had a lot of questions about how the AF performance compares to Sony's autofocus, I decided to do a head-to-head with the Lumix S5ii and the Sony A74 to see who would come out on top.
What's surprising is that the Panasonic S5ii is easily just as good as the Sony A74 in terms of AF performance, and this is only the first generation of the Phase system from Panasonic.

So, it's official, Lumix are now moving away from their Contrast Based AF system and switching to a Phase Hybrid Detect AF system that actually works incredibly well. This means that the biggest shortfall of the Lumix system has now truly been fixed, and of course, the amazing colour science, ergonomics and IBIS are still here to stay.
I have had the Lumix S5ii in hand now for over a month and it is nothing short of incredible. It has revolutionised the S-Series lineup and now makes it the most cohesive and complete camera package money can buy. You're getting full frame 6K internally, no record limits thanks to the new active cooling system, a fantastic AF system and the best IBIS on the market all for under $2,000.
It's honestly incredible what Panasonic have been able to do at such a competitive price point, and the new S5ii and S5iix will definitely give the competitors a run for their money.

Building out a cine rig for your mirrorless camera can be both a beneficial and very enjoyable process. I've been using the Lumix S1 as my Handheld camera for over a year now, and in that time i've slowly been improving the ergonomics and features of my handheld so it better suits my workflow.
The Lumix S1 is an incredibly capable camera that you can now get for less than £1000 on the used market, and with the upgrade key you're able to shoot 6K RAW video externally as well as internal 6K Open Gate video, which is nuts!
This body also has really impressive IBIS, so rigging it up makes the whole handheld experience very enjoyable.
It doesn't matter what mirrorless camera you own, you can make an excellent cine rig as long as you prioritise ergonomics and usability above everything else.
This rig has taken me around a year to complete and to perfect, so please don't expect to run out and buy this all at once; building your rig is an evolutionary thing and you'll learn what you like and don't like as time moves forward with it.
Thanks for watching!

So over the last few months I have reviewed and tested all of the full frame L-Mount cine lenses from 7Artisans, and I genuinely think they're great for the money. However, the biggest issue is that there's no wide angle or standard wide lens in that set - they only have the 35mm T2.0 , 50mm T2.0 and 85mm T2.0, meaning there's a big gap on the wider end.
Well, recently they released the 12mm t2.9, and although it's an APS-C lens, the equivalent field of view is around 18mm, so is usable and very nice to have in this setup.
There's a few drawbacks to this lens, but it's so cheap that to be honest, those drawbacks don't matter too much.
I would still love for 7Artisans to come out with a 24mm T2.0 lens in their full frame lineup to compliment the rest of their L-Mount cine set, so we'll have to wait and see if that ever comes.
Thanks for watching!

I'm a pretty busy guy - my video production business keeps me busy, and doing YouTube semi-seriously on the side also makes things busy too.
Keeping my office space as productive as possible is definitely a must for me, and although I've always loved the idea of a sit-stand desk, I never thought I would actually ever get the full use out of one, but that was until I got one.
The guys at Flexispot were kind enough to send out one of their lovely desks, and it's been an absolute life saver for editing, shooting product B-Roll, rigging and everything in between.
They're definitely quite pricey, but if you're in the market for a new desk and want maximum functionality, then I'd definitely recommend the flexispot sit stand desk. It's very well built, high quality and it's become my new favourite thing in the office.

I'm very fortunate that I get to travel a lot for work - both within the UK and also overseas as well. Most of the time, I like to travel as light as possible, so that means one camera body, a few lenses and only the essential accessories.
My Lumix S5 has been to many countries with me now , and there's always the same lenses that end up in my travel camera bag, so in this video I wanted to talk about why my travel setup always stays quite similar, and why it's so important to prioritise when you're packing your camera equipment for travel.
Thanks for watching!
V-Log is hands down the best flat colour profile there is as well, and for the money, nothing compares to the Panasonic S5 in terms of image quality and features.

After doing corporate shoots for the last 4 years, I've definitely noticed the strain that carrying heavy rigs has left on my back.
I've looked at various different bodycam systems, like the EasyRig and Arri's steadicam rigs too (although they're way too expensive!).
And after doing a bit of research, I found the Digital Foto Thanos SE camera vest mounting system.
It's super simple, just an adjustable vest with a supporting hydraulic arm for your camera setup, and it works really well. It essentially redistributes the weight from your arms and back to your hips and legs, meaning that there's less fatigue on your body in a short space of time.
My S1 handheld rig is very heavy, and so is the gimbal setup I choose to use with my Panasonic S5, so this is an absolute godsend on those longer shoot days.
If you do a lot of long shoot days with big camera rigs, or have noticed that your back is aching after a while, then definitely check this system out as it could help you a tonne!

I don't know what's coming next in the S-Series roadmap, but as a fond user of the Panasonic S5 and S1, there's definitely some things that i'd love to see in the next Lumix full frame camera.
We don't know whether the next camera will be an S1Hmii or an S5H or even an S5ii. Panasonic are pretty good at keeping their cards close to their chest and not much has been said about the next body.
I made this video purely to get the conversation started around what people expect to see in the successor to the Panasonic Lumix S5/S1/S1H. Of course, I know that all of the things spoken about in this video probably won't be added to the next camera, however it's always fun to speculate and if the camera I describe in this video does actually come out then I would be buying 5.
Here's a rundown of what I'd like to see in the successor to the Panasonic S5:
- A better EVF
- Similar flippy screen to the Lumix GH6 and Lumix S1H
- Full Size HDMI Port
- USB-C SSD support
- 4K 120p in APS-C mode (only 10bit 4:2:0)
- More control over audio preamps
- No crop in 4K 50/60p
- Hybrid AF system that utilises both Contrast Detect and Phase Detect AF
I know this is definitely a lot to ask for in the next S-Series camera, but even if we got 30% of that list I'd be super happy since the Lumix S is already an incredible camera.
Thanks for watching!

I'm a very lucky guy because I get to try out a lot of really nice photo and video gear, and recently I tested the Panasonic 70-300 while I was out in South Africa.
I wanted a compact, lightweight telephoto lens that didn't compromise on image quality, purely because I wanted to travel as lightweight as possible. So, I took the Panasonic Lumix S5 with the Panasonic 70-300 to capture as much wildlife as possible, and this combo is incredibly lightweight and extremely versatile for wildlife photography.
The Panasonic 70-300 stands to be one of the best bang-for-buck L-Mount lenses out there in my opinion, and the image quality coupled with the lightweight design and form factor makes it the dream telephoto lens for travel.
If you are into sports photography, wildlife photography, nature photography, or anything where getting up close and personal is a must, then i'd highly recommend the Panasonic 70-300 and it would definitely be my first choice of all the telephoto lenses available for the L-Mount.
Thanks for watching!

A few sources out there have told us that the best way to shoot vertical video content while also getting a useable 16x9 version on the Panasonic Lumix S5 was to use the Anamorphic 4:3 mode, and I have used this method a few times for my client work.
I scripted a whole video around the idea of using the 4:3 mode to shoot vertical video, but after running a few tests in my office, I realised that shooting in 16x9 on the S5 actually gives you better results.
People normally assume that the anamorphic 4:3 mode on the Panasonic Lumix S5, S1 and S1H are like an 'Open Gate' setting, and I thought the same thing - but it turns out that you're not using the full sensor when you switch to that 4:3 mode, and the crop is actually heavier for vertical video than it is when you use the normal 16x9 recording options.
I've even tried switching to Pixel by Pixel readout, and as you'll be able to see, the full sensor readout option is disabled once you switch to the anamorphic mode on both the Lumix S5 and Lumix S1.
If I'm doing something wrong here guys then please let me know, but after testing this time and time again, I definitely saw better results shooting in 16x9.
Thanks for watching!

Every time a new iPhone is released, everyone expects the camera top get marginally better, and for the most part, it does. It's also one of the biggest reasons why I stuck with the iPhone XS Max for a long time, simply because the camera improvements weren't enough for me to justify getting. a newer one, but that was until the iPhone 14 Pro was announced.
There's already a bunch of videos out there on the specs of the iPhone 14 Pro, but in this video I just wanted to show you exactly what sort of results you can get from this phone. I think the new camera is absolutely amazing and is by far the best smartphone camera i've ever seen for stills.
In this video I show a bunch of real world photo examples taken with the iPhone 14 Pro, shot in RAW and edited in Lightroom. A lot of reviews out there don't show enough of what the camera is capable of, and I think that this video does a better job in really showing how much the iPhone 14 Pro shines for photography.
The ability to shoot raw photos with up to 48mp of resolution on a phone in incredible, and the natural depth of field and computational processing makes the iPhone 14 Pro a powerhouse of a camera in your pocket.
You've probably heard people say "the best camera is the one you have with you" - I've heard this a bunch of times and it is very true for the most part. The great thing about having the iPhone 14 Pro is that I have such a powerful tool with me wherever I go, and taking this phone with me to South Africa was truly amazing.
I think that the iPhone 14 Pro is definitely a worthy upgrade for anyone if they like to shoot photos, and I think that even pro photographers will agree with me that it's an exceptional camera to have in your pocket at all times.
Thanks for watching!

After reviewing the 7Artisans 35mm T2.0, I was blown away at how good the lens was for such a reasonable price. The sharpness and build quality on the 35mm T2.0 are insane for the price, and I really wanted to see whether the 7Artisans 50mm T2.0 and 85mm T2.0 were of the same quality.
Luckily 7Artisans were very kind to send out the full cine lens lineup in the spectrum series, and I've had a few weeks to play around with them.
Both the 50mm T2.0 and the 85mm T2.0 are built extremely well just like the 35mm T2.0, and the sharpness and quality is just as good as the 35mm as well.
I genuinely think that the 7Artisans Spectrum Cine Primes are the best bang for the buck currently for the L-Mount in terms of budget cine lenses, and they have become a staple in my lens collection for my corporate shoots.
I would highly recommend all three lenses if you're an L-Mount shooter and shoot a lot of video with your Panasonic Lumix S5, S1 or S1H.
There's a lot of video examples in this video that was shot with the 7Artisans 50mm T2.0 and 85mm T2.0, both mounted to my Panasonic S5.
Thanks for watching this video, and hope you found it useful!

Laowa has just announced the newest addition to their lineup of lenses - the 58mm F2.8 2X Macro.
This lens is available for the L-Mount, so that's great news for the fellow Panasonic S5, S1 and S1H users out there.
Macro photography and videography is something that doesn't really get explored by everyone, and some either use it all the time while others miss it completely.
I actually think that the new Laowa 58mm F2.8 2X Macro would be a great entry point into the world of macro since 58mm is a generous focal length that is still very versatile for portraiture and other types of content.
The Laowa 58mm F2.8 2X macro will cost around $499 USD, so price wise I think it's pretty reasonable. This lens has become my go to for product shots in my office and for anything where i'd like to capture as much detail as possible.
You can focus super close with this lens, so capturing the details that are not visible to the human eye is always really fun.
Definitely a lens to consider for your kit, the Laowa 58mm F2.8 2X Macro is super sharp, and very well built just like every other lens they offer.
Thanks for watching - and hopefully you found this video helpful!

Pricing your services is tricky, and there's a lot of variables that stand in the way. I've seen a crazy difference in the rates that people are charging for their video/ content creation services, and I genuinely think it's down to the fact that there's no decent information out there about pricing and business strategy in this particular situation.
I've been running my own business now for 4 years, and in that time I've been raising my prices every year almost religiously. A lot of people seem to feel like they can't ask for more and instead sell themselves short time and time again, making their time less valuable and damaging the reputation of other like-minded freelancers.
So, in a bid to help everyone who watches this channel who may currently be selling themselves short, or just find the whole pricing thing really scary and confusing, I wanted to make a video that goes into depth about my pricing strategy, and how the rates I charge have changed over the last few years.
Being self-employed in this industry is tough, and I want to make sure that everyone is getting paid the money they deserve for their services.
A lot of people either charge and day rate or an hourly rate, and in this video I wanted to talk about how each method will change the way your business works.
Thanks for watching this video, and I hope it's helpful for you!

Recently I met up with Sam Holland to play a game he calls Lens Roulette.
The rules are simple, we both had to roll a dice that determines our location and then we span a bottle the decides what lens we use in that location, and all the lenses were from the Panasonic Lumix S Series lineup.
All of the 1.8 primes were included, even the brand new Panasonic 18mm F1.8 that I reviewed less than a week ago.
To make things interesting, we added a stimulus for the other person to find and include in each location, and if they failed, they’d lose the round and whoever lost the most would buy dinner.
I absolutely love the Lumix S Series primes since they’re lightweight and super sharp at a very good price point.
I’ve had the privilege of using all of the primes before, and it’s specifically the Panasonic 24mm F1.8 and 18mm F1.8 that stood out to me the most. In fact, the 35mm F1.8 is probably the best all-around lens of the bunch.
Anyways, thanks for watching and I hope you guys enjoyed this video!

Having a neat, productive and effective workspace for me has always been really important, and I've alway wanted to build the office of my dreams that would help me to stay organised.
Even though I could easily spend £££ more on this space, I feel like my Home Office is now better than its ever been in terms of productivity and tidiness.
I work from home all of the time since I run my own business and don't have another office to work from, so I probably spend 80% of my time just in this room, and after spending a bit of money on making it the best use of space I could imagine up, I'm very happy with the results.
Office tour videos are probably some of my favourite ones to come around each year form my favourite creators. They always show new ways of doing things that can help to minimise clutter, and to create a more productive workspace.
I'm very fortunate to have quite a large office space to use for editing, shooting YouTube videos and storing all of my video gear. It's a privilege, and I definitely don't take it for granted!
In this video I talk about all of the furniture I have in the office, as well as the different cameras and lights I use to film my YouTube videos.
As everyone knows by now, I shoot exclusively with Panasonic Lumix cameras such as the Lumix S5, BS1H and S1.
I really hope you enjoy this video, and please feel free to comment below if you'd do anything different to this space!
Thanks for watching!

It's finally here! The new Panasonic Lumix S 18mm F1.8 has arrived, and it's even better than I was expecting.
The fifth and final lens to join the family of compact 1.8 primes from Panasonic for the L-Mount. Of course, we knew that the Lumix 18mm F1.8 was coming for a while, and it's taken some time to get here but it was definitely worth the wait.
This lens is superb - it's sharp, lightweight and priced very reasonably as well in my opinion for the quality you're getting.
If you have been lookign for a very decent ultra wide lens for your L-Mount camera, then this may be your best option so far. At only £800, it's almost half the price of the Panasonic S Pro 16-35 F4, and stops all the way down to F1.8, making it a far better option for lowlight shooting.
Thanks for watching, and I hope you enjoy this video!

As a follow up to my first video on the Lumix BS1H, I wanted to talk about some of the negatives that i've found while using this camera for the past month.
The Lumix BS1H is a pretty cool camera with excellent image quality and amazing features, but one weird quirk happens when you try to record ProRes RAW or Black Magic RAW, and I really hope that Panasonic can change this with a firmware update.
I really enjoy using this camera either way - it's a brilliant tool for many different applications and really shows how versatile the box form factor can be.

I have recently started to use ProRes RAW quite a lot with my Panasonic S5 since I can see all of the benefits that it provides to me and my workflow. Since there's not much out there on the editing workflow with ProRes RAW, I thought i'd make a video going through the process of both shooting and editing ProRes RAW when using the Panasonic S5, or any other Lumix Full Frame Body.
I also wanted to include some ProRes RAW footage that was shot with the Panasonic S5 so you guys could see the sort of quality it gives you, since I know that RAW video with the Lumix S5 is a bit of a 'give or take' for some people. Although I have already compared the internal codecs of the Lumix S5 to the ProRes RAW footage, I still do think that despite the larger file sizes, there's definitely a massive plus to shooting RAW when it makes a difference.
ProRes RAW is very easy to edit in Final Cut Pro X, however sometimes it can be confusing whether to use an SDR or HDR workflow. Of course, most of the time it'd be wise to use SDR since scree technology is still within the realms of SDR, although more and more phones and monitors are becoming HDR compatible.
I will be making a video on HDR workflow with ProRes RAW in the future, so if you're interested in that then keep an eye out!
Check out the Colbor CL60 Light Here:

The Colbor CL60 video light is a great example of great quality at an affordable price. It's super small, making it perfect for travelling with, and the colour accuracy is also very good.
For under £150, you can have a fully-metal construction keylight that comes complete with a travel case and two USB-C brick chargers, and I think that's a great deal.
If you're in the market for more continuous lighting either for YouTube, interviews, or anything like that, then the Colbor CL60 would be a fantastic option indeed.
Thanks for watching!

Full Frame Cine Lenses that cost under £1000 are rare to find, and what's even more rare is finding cine glass that is natively L-Mount.
7Artisans recently released 3 full-frame cine lenses that all cost around $400 each and are L-Mount, making them extremely interesting for Panasonic S5/ Lumix Full Frame users.
A lot of us Panasonic users shoot mainly video, so the cine lenses make total sense for our workflow, since we probably don't use AF too much either.
These 7Artisans Spectrum Series Cine Lenses have a full metal construction, proper cine teethed focus and iris, along with a great focus throw amount.
I've genuinely loved using the 7Artisans 35mm T.20 with my Lumix S5 and BS1H, and I would 100% recommend this lens to any video shooter who uses Lumix cameras.
The price point is great, the quality for the money is superb, and this 35mm T2.0 is just super fun to use.
Thanks for watching!
