Given that the s2 has no sport or action mode, can anyone suggest some
settings that would equate to that mode on the S5? I've only just got
the camera, but my plan would be to save them so I could just turn the
dial to "C".
Thanks for any suggestions

Delve into the manual.

Try Tv mode with the fastest shutter speed or Av mode with the widest
aperture. Also experiment with higher ISOs, which will reduce motion blur,
but increase noise.

It look like the "action" setting on my last camera ranged between
1/250 and 1/350, and that was fine for kids on swings etc. Of course
I'll experiment, but an action preset would have been nice.
