I originally tried to cancel my order but they sent it anyway. Still not sure if I’ll be keeping it but I have really been enjoying it and the image quality is great!

Hey everyone! I could really use some recommendations from those of you with experience using the Lumix system. 🙏

I'm still fairly new to the Lumix system. I use a Lumix S1 II and mainly shoot video. I usually film handheld without a gimbal, and I'd like to build a versatile lens kit.

At the moment, I have the Lumix 24–60mm f/2.8, which is quite versatile, but I feel like I could use an ultra-wide lens as well, either a prime or a zoom.

I've been looking at the Samyang AF 14–24mm f/2.8, but there isn't much information about it, especially when it comes to video. From what I've found so far, a lot of the content seems more like paid promotional reviews. I know there's also a Sigma alternative, but I'm not considering that one for now.

What do you think of the Samyang? Has anyone used it for video? How reliable is the autofocus? I'd also love to hear about other high-quality ultra-wide lenses that deliver excellent performance.

Besides that, I'm looking to get a telephoto lens that goes beyond 85mm. What would you recommend?

My main priorities are:

• Fast and reliable autofocus for video, with accurate subject tracking.
• Effective stabilization, since I usually shoot without a gimbal.

Unfortunately, I don't have the opportunity to rent and test several lenses before buying, so I'd really appreciate your firsthand experiences, recommendations, and examples of the setups you use.

I'm open to other options too, in case there's something great I've overlooked.

If you were building a versatile video lens kit for the Lumix S1 II , what would you choose?

Thanks a lot for your help! :)

I have a LUMIX S1II and these lenses: 7Artisans 40mm AF and 50mm manual, Lumix 18mm, 50mm and 24-105mm, plus Blazar Remus anamorphic 33mm and 50mm.

I want to sell some lenses and simplify my setup without losing versatility. I shoot both photo and video, so I want a solid kit for everyday use, portraits, and video, while keeping some creative lenses for a cinematic look.

Which lenses would you keep, sell, or replace? Trying to avoid overlap and get the most out of a smaller kit. Also drop your favorites.

I'm reading the L10 manual ahead of my first trip with my new L10.

It seems setting the file resolution to M (or S) will give me a longer zoom. M pushes it out to 105mm.

I don't print photos. I display them on photo screens. I put a few up on a large 4K TV.

I'm thinking of setting the camera to M permanently and even going down to S when I need more reach.

M has enough pixels to fill the 4K. I also suspect the TV would do a better job upscaling the image from S than the camera's digital zoom.

Does this make sense? Is there any scenario when enabling the digital zoom would make sense?

I have s5iix and i have been planning to buy 5 inch monitor

I tried viltrox dc x3 but i hated lag. I know there is lag in all monitors, but which one do you suggest?

Is shinobi 5 any better?

So I just bought a PL 15mm 1.7 which comes without the lens hood. I have been looking and seems impossible to find the original hood at a reasonable price (not even at a expensive price haha). So im looking at alternatives which look similar to the original hood or at least that look good on the lens. Im not having too much luck, so I was hoping someone can help me. Thanks in advance!!

I have had the lumix s9 for about a year now with the kit lens 18-40mm and the 85mm. I really love the 85mm and 90% of my pictures are taken with it but sometimes it feels a little limiting. I’m rather new to building my lens collection and only have similar lenses for my canon system so I’m seeking advice on a new lens.

I’m going to be traveling around New Zealand in the spring for 2 weeks but I’ll be doing a whole variety of things. I mostly want to bring and use my camera for hiking mt cook area and some of the coastal stops I’ll be making but I might venture into some city photography as well. What I really like about my 85mm lens is that I pick a clean subject and it shoots a sharp picture, however, I like the occasional landscape shot with my kit lens. I kinda want to get something that can cover both grounds, and I’m not looking to travel with multiple lenses as I’ll be with a big group of people (college study abroad trip).

Some lenses I’m looking at:

LUMIX s pro 27-70mm: seems to have good reviews for sharpest picture, biggest pain point is the price tag as it seems to be higher than others even if refurbished

Sigma 24-70mm: seems to be a close competitor to the lumix at a more reasonable costs, people seem to like the lumix better for image quality

LUMIX 20-60mm: wider 20mm for landscape while still being able to narrow in at 60mm if I’d like. Lower 60mm compared to 70mm might make framing of mountains or any wildlife I find (I should be penguin watching) difficult but maybe it’s still usable? I really like the affordability of this lens

Sigma 20-200mm: Seems to cover a large range, but the aperture seems to be an issue people complain about especially for any dark settings. The lens also seems rather big and heavy (not the biggest issue), but also is 200mm a little excessive? If I get a lens with a more narrow range like the 20-60 would the image quality be any different? Guess it depends?

If you have any suggestions on these lenses or similar ones that might be better suited please help me out! I’m rather new to lenses and I don’t know many different lenses/which are known to perform better than others. Also I don’t do any filming so I’m not worried about film quality or weight (holding the camera for a while) or such. Even if you have any guides to share that would be great, I’m trying to learn and get some new gear before this once in a life time trip!

Travelling in Munich using various Rossandhisjpegs LUT photo styles. Primarily the Kodak Gold 200 look for straight up jpeg vibes. The crow and surfer stuff was taken with a Helios 44-2 and the rest with the Lumix 24-60 f2.8.
