Allows switching between multiple Adobe Camera Match profiles by changing the camera name.

For example, it enables users to activate new color profiles—such as CineLike A2, L Classic, and L Classic Gold (originally only for the S1 II and L10 models)—on the S5 II and older. It is also compatible with cameras from Sony, Canon, Nikon, and other brands.

Include CineLike A2, L Classic, L Classic Gold

The video is composed of 12-bit 30 fps RAW continuous shots from the S52.

The issues include:

1. A drastic drop in resolution when shooting in portrait orientation.

2. Significant focus shift.

3. Sluggish motor response.

However, I found no issues when shooting in landscape orientation. Based on current results, the Panasonic 100–500mm lens offers better resolution at 300mm than the 70–300mm lens. Its sharpness at 500mm rivals that of the 70–300mm lens at 300mm (in fact, the 100–500mm is essentially an enlarged version of the 70–300mm). Across the entire focal range, it demonstrates superior control over chromatic aberration, faster autofocus, and better image stabilization compared to the 70–300mm lens. However, the 100–500mm and 70–300mm lenses both have poor backlight performance—inferior to the 24–70mm S Pro(last pic).

Lumix rent me a telephoto lens for free, but after unboxing and using it, I discovered a fault at the telephoto end: resolution drops drastically when shooting in portrait orientation, whereas the image remains crisp and sharp in landscape orientation. I want to contact them, but I’m afraid they might think the damage was caused by me.

In the past three years, I have spent a lot of time using my Lumix S5M2/S1rii for wildlife, specifically for birds. Now, I have decided to buy a Sony a9 and a 200-600mm lens for bird photography. I noticed that people always have different opinions about whether the Lumix AF is enough for wildlife photography. Thus, I want to share some of my experience.

I will give the conclusion first: the Lumix AF is enough for wildlife photography, but it is not professional-level.

First, why do gear reviewers always have negative feedback on the Lumix AF system? I would say that the Lumix AF not being truly outstanding is part of the reason. However, another important reason is that gear reviewers are not real Lumix users; they just open the box and use it for a few hours. The Lumix AF system is not perfect out-of-the-box. Users have to spend some time understanding it and changing the settings properly instead of using the default settings, which is something gear reviewers will not do.

Furthermore, let's talk about the settings. The settings play an important role in the Lumix AF system. For example:

1.There are four AF modes to choose from (I choose Mode 3).

2.Subject detection will influence the focus speed and the probability of successful focusing. If there is a situation that does not require subject detection, you can turn it off.

3.Lumix does provide an outstanding subject detection system; it is much better than any Sony camera before the A7RV. However, Lumix's tracking ability without subject detection (including the S1II and S1RII) is worse than any other brand.

4. It is important to notes that the Tracking Mode (the first option in the Lumix AF area selection,and I notice some gear reviewers use this) is not the same as the Full Area Focus Mode. In my opinion, Full Area Focus Mode is much better than Tracking Mode. Lumix's Tracking Mode is the worst ever—even Sony's Real-Time Tracking from 2017 can beat the S1mii/rii's tracking very easily. (I did compare both) Lumix's tracking ability without subject detection is worse than any other brand.

Also, I have noticed that a lot of people ignore an important part, which is the lens focusing motor. The people complaining about their autofocus might be using lenses like the Sigma 150-600mm (STM motor) and 70-300mm (old linear motor).

Why did I say it is not professional? You can use your Lumix camera for sports, action, or wildlife, and it might work well. But if you have strict requirements, you should use Sony, Canon, or Nikon. For example, in a given situation, Sony/Canon/Nikon might get a 10/10 or 8/10, while the Lumix might get a 6/10. The difference is not really important for amateur users, but it is important for those who make a career out of this.

Compared to the 24-70 S Pro, the Lumix 24-60 lens is lighter, more compact, and more affordable; it boasts faster autofocus speeds and a superior minimum focusing distance, while delivering comparable image quality. The 24-60 stands as arguably the finest lens Lumix has produced to date, and I sincerely hope that the upcoming 60-180 lens will live up to the same high standard.

The colors produced by the 24-70 spro are slightly warmer than those of the 24-60. However, not every circumstances can show their difference.
