Chaemono Posted October 2, 2020 Share #1 Posted October 2, 2020 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) The 35 Summilux-TL is a stunner wide open on the camera and the combo feels perfectly balanced. 10 MPx even allow for some cropping if pictures are upsized.

Chaemono Posted October 3, 2020 Author Share #3 Posted October 3, 2020 For OOF area, color, and 'crop-ability.' One can crop quite a bit with 10 MPx provided one uses AI to sharpen the image first - I used Topaz DeNoise AI - and upsizes it - I used ON1 Resize.

Boojay Posted October 3, 2020 Share #5 Posted October 3, 2020 Only the Dutch?😀 Images with the 35 TL look good. Our Son (who thought I was about to give him my CL - no ..no .. no..) has bought the S5 Pan Kit, probably thinking we can share lenses, or at least he can pinch mine! Anyway, I have it at the moment. Having had the S1 for a while myself before getting the SL2 I thought I would quickly remember how to set it up, but had totally forgotten all those menu options! I do like the flippy screen, very useful at times, and although the buttons feel a bit cluttered to me, especially the af/on and the joystick, it feels like a nice solid bit of kit. Are you shooting jpeg only at the moment? Adobe hasn't caught up with this release yet it seems. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The WB, ISO, Exposure Compensation buttons, too. How I wish that it had the SL2 button layout and shutter sound. vor 21 Minuten schrieb Boojay: Are you shooting jpeg only at the moment? Adobe hasn't caught up with this release yet it seems. I'm shooting RAW and hacking the files by renaming the model in the EXIF data to DC-S1. One can open them in LR then. Open ExifTool and type "Exiftool -Model='DC-S1' images.RW2 (drag all the files you want to rename after you type the space). Edit - I shot the CL with the 50 Summicron-SL next to the S5 with the 75 Summicron-SL. Will post later. Edited October 3, 2020 by Chaemono 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I do kind of agree about that top row of three buttons too! Your son has the camera with the more subdued colors and better skin tones, you have the camera with the more bold colors out-of-the-box and the more fun-to-shot one. I'm looking through the files right now and Panasonic has done a great job with colors and skin tones, I must say. I had noticed this with the S1, too, which is the profile I'm using for the S5 files. Punchy colors work for certain images but the CL somehow needs more work to fix the skin tones and get the magenta/red out of the pictures. This doesn't always work to my liking and it sometimes screws up the rest of the colors. Even though the CL is tiny, pocketable, fun to shoot and the files for shadow and highlight detail recovery are terrific, the magenta/redness of the images is the main reason I hardly use it. It's not a FF vs. APS-C thing, IMO, because the original T was terrific for colors AND skin tones. I had read somewhere that the innards of the T came from Panasonic - probably not the sensor, though. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyBug Posted June 8, 2021 Share #9 Posted June 8, 2021 (edited) I understand that the TL lenses cannot cover the full image circle of 36x24 ... but, can they cover a 1:1 format of 24x24? And will the S5 let you shoot the TL lenses 1:1 ... or does it still force you into APS-C for 1:1 Edited June 8, 2021 by RustyBug Added info Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FP with the latest firmware update has the option to use FF with Sigma apsc lenses, 16mm, 30mm, and 56mm. Edited June 9, 2021 by serhan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob_w Posted June 9, 2021 Share #11 Posted June 9, 2021 (edited) I have not used an S5, but last weekend shot a whole range of pics while testing the SL2-S, with the TL35 mounted. Very pleased to report that the image quality was excellent. There was simply no visible loss of quality at 10.3 Mp and the files were quite robust during processing. The results were stunning and stood toe-to-toe with the results from the Leica 24-70 SL zoom I was also testing. Minor rendering differences, very minor, could go either way depending on the subject or the lighting. As far as handling is concerned, the rig balanced nicely but IMHO the SL2-S is still too heavy anyway. I have been wondering since whether the S5 at 200gm less or so, would make a noticeable difference. Can anyone say? Also wondering if those annoying S5 buttons and menus can be ignored once the right camera settings are established? I do like the idea of the flippy screen but never having shot with one it is a hypothetical benefit at this stage.

jaapv Posted June 9, 2021 Share #12 Posted June 9, 2021 I don't have an S5, but a number of older Lumix cameras; I still cannot operate them without a slip of paper on which I wrote the various functions down for quick reference 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted June 9, 2021 Share #13 Posted June 9, 2021 It is no joke.. There are IIRC 13 buttons plus seven virtual ones on the LCD, nearly all programmable. I cannot keep tract of that -and it distracts totally from photography. In fact, I do not know what to assign all of them to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldwino Posted June 11, 2021 Share #14 Posted June 11, 2021 I use maybe 5 buttons on my S5 with regularity, and that includes the “play” and “delete” button. So, yes, once you set it up, you can probably ignore many (most?) of them. That row of function buttons on top, near the shutter release? I’ve never used them. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
