Can I use adapted lenses on the panasonic lumix s5d?

The site doesn't cover adapters, so I can't tell you whether a particular adapted lens will work on the S5D. The S5D is an L-Mount camera, and you can see its full lens list on the Panasonic Lumix S5D page, or read about the mount on the L-Mount page.

For a native lens that covers most everyday shooting, I'd look at the Panasonic Lumix S 24-105mm f/4 Macro OIS. For reach, the Panasonic Lumix S Pro 70-200mm f/2.8 OIS is a good choice.

If you're thinking about older or APS-C glass, the sensor sizes guide explains the crop factor, which decides how much of the frame you use.
