    For some time now I had an S1H for video and an S1 for photography. Now I feel like I can multicam without problems with both, for me that's a huge deal. Thanks to Panasonic for really caring for costumers, unlike other brands that launch 3 cameras every month.

    I’ve been using S5 and now got S1 as well. Something I’ve noticed that is the AF performance. Panasonic made S5 differently. S5 is more responsive and reliable when it comes to AF. Especially using the 85MM S 1.8 lens, the S1 suffers but S5 does a good job. My second newest post shows u the S5 performance

    I am open to "going back" to Panasonic. I owned the GH5 for a long time, and shot a feature film with it. But, the AF is still not there, yet. Yes, it has improved dramatically in recent firmware updates. And it's disturbing that Panasonic is insisting that they are sticking with the contrast based AF. I think that's part of the reason why their AF is still not completely reliable. I hope they do bring their AF to the level of reliability that we experience with Sony and Canon cameras. As a filmmaker, I actually don't rely on AF all the time. But, as an indie filmmaker, I have to have those moments where I can just grab the camera and get a shot without having to hire a crew or focus puller. And that's where good AF comes in. I really love Panasonic's color science. I think it's one of the best in the business, hands down. That being said, I am impressed with the S series from Panasonic. I love how they are expanding their line of cameras. But, I think they would enjoy a massive leap in market share if the AF in their cameras was more consistent.
    Great video content, as usual, gents. Cheers.

    When you account for the 200$ software upgrade key (which is needed to take advantage of the new firmware of the S1) and the 800$+ for the Atomos Ninja V ( that has loud fan noise) + 100$ for a Cage + (I don't know what else, maybe a handle etc) the price difference between S1H and the S1 with extras is not so much.
    The S1 is AMAZING if you don't the swivel screen for self recording and if you don't need more than 15 minutes for 6K recording.
    If you need those things you can get the S1H and you can have a more compact setup, the best functioning tilt and sivel screen, ALL-I, bigger top screen, the Low Pass Filter and the HFR High Frame Rate 48p/100p/120p in FHD.

    Used an S1H kindly provided by Panasonic to shoot some scenic footage for TELESERENITY.com. It's a beastly camera but a superb one thanks to its versatility and better than you know who ergonomics and usability. Tack sharp lifelike video footage, just what we need. Once lockdown is over, we're hoping to go shoot more relaxing footage. We don't of course use AF for our work, being TELESERENITY forbids zooming and focus changing in order not to disrupt the calm, so cannot judge on that controversial issue that SXXY do better. Either way, the S1 and S1H deserve more coverage by the tech press who seem obsessed with the other brands. For me, it's all about realistic colour out of camera, and Panasonic do this best.

    Okay first off, thanks to you guys for ALWAYS informing us about which camera was used to record the episode. The S1H looks absolutely great---but still weighs a TON...too much, IMO, for run and gun video in a Texas summer.
    But one thing you guys ALWAYS omit is talking about focus assist features on third party non-electronic lenses for us manual video shooters.
    Those features always have been decent (not great, but decent) on the S1H...but the S1--not so much.
    The peaking on the S1, for instance, is fine for setting focus, but hit record and the peaking all but vanishes. Yes, it's better in natural or CineD, but shooting V-Log you're SoL.
    (Not a real problem on the S5, OR the GH5/GH5S, the G9, the G85---you know the drill. At present, give me an S5 with a miniHDMI and, unlike Gerald, I'm actually Done.)
    It is almost impossible to track a subject using the peaking on the S1.
    As good as the S1 was the severe paucity of the peaking was deal breaker for me.
    To compound that, the diopter of the S1 only goes to +3.5----not +4! (Same story with the S1H).
    Strangely enough, the diopter is fine on the S5---crazy, right?!? They give you an ESSENTIAL feature on a $2000.00 camera, and then Cripple Hammer it on a $4000.00 one?!?
    Camera companies!
    You can't understand what they do and why, but you can't shoot them!
    The diopter craziness is not likely to change, but I had a fix for that.
    But it would be wonderful if it were improved.
    But my question is a SIMPLE one--- with a SIMPLE answer I hope you'll have the kindness to supply.
    To wit: did Panasonic fix the Peaking on the S1 so it does not virtually disappear the moment you hit record?!?
    Beyond that, great review and your grading looks terrific. These are great cameras. I just wish they had not contracted that horrible virus before they made them....Covid??? Of course not.

The only content these experts create is "reviews" with the sole purpose of creating controversy and generating discussions. Post a video shot that you missed because the AF was 'complete crap'. I bet there isn't any. PS -- not saying that you are lying. Yes on paper Panasonic many not have the fastest AF but in real world shooting there will almost never be a scenario where a scene was lost due to Panasonic's 'crap AF' (assuming you were using native Panasonic lenses not another brand with adapter)

      @@2424rocket You're welcome. I have owned the S1 since it came out two years ago. I came from the Canon 5D and 7D series cameras and the difference in picture/video quality is night and day ! I was especially surprised by still image quality. I knew Panasonic was great for video (GH4, GH5 ) so I expected video to look much better than the Canon DSLR's which it did. However what I was not expecting was the stark difference in still picture quality. The Lumix stills were teeming with fine detail that I never gotten out of the Canons (jpeg or raw). As for AF , with the original firmware at release I will say there was occasional hesitation - as if the camera couldn't make up its mind what to focus on. With the new firmwares all that is gone. If you are using native Panasonic lenses, still image AF is instantaneous. Video focus is very good too after the last two firmware updates although I can't give a head to head comparison with the Sony's since I have never used one.

    • @danieldougan269
      @danieldougan269 3 роки тому +1

      No. These are two very different concepts.
      All-I compression means the camera records the full image with each frame. This is in contrast to IPB that only records the part of the image that moved since the previous frame. All-I is easier for your computer to edit, but the files are larger. Also, All-I prevents motion issues in video that might cause an image to break up when there's a lot of movement.
      RAW is about recording more color information, much like shooting RAW in photography, but you have to use an external recorder in most cases. Typical internal recording is 8-bit or 10-bit, but ProRes RAW and Blackmagic RAW are 12-bit codecs. It just gives more flexibility for color grading.
      For the best possible image (theoretically at least), you would want RAW and All-I at the same time.
