Not much scope for creative shooting. Suggest you set the aperture/speed by taking note of the built-in exposure meter. or using full auto

I have a similarly slow lens as this, it is possible to freeze action, but you pretty much need a sunny day to maintain a 1/500 shutter speed without having to push the iso too high. not sure how well the lumix handles its iso, my camera handles it pretty well, but i wouldn't try this on a dull day or indoors under poor lighting.

Being a little cheeky but how much do you understand apertures and what the f numbers mean?
