One thing I will advice is that because of lens variations, make sure that whatever lens you are looking at PAIRS up properly with the S5. That camera is very very picky when it comes to lenses.

Thank you for your answer, do you know where I can find information about what lenses pair well with S5? Is there a list somewhere?

Just do a quick google and you should find some info.

The sharper the lens the better.  Prime lenses are also good for it.  nikon 17-55, 70-200, 85mm, 35mm, etc. etc.  I actually sold my nikon 17-55 for the sigma 17-50 2.8.  Excellent lens and much lighter.

if you get a zoom lens make sure is not back focusing.
