One thing to clarify on the shutter speed part. There must of been something else at work that time I got the jitter from reducing my shutter speed to the same as my frame rate. You will still get SMOOTH slow motion, but there's just much more blur. Honestly is kind of a cool effect and maybe I'll demonstrate it in a future video. Happy filming 🙏
This is probably the best image quality and some of the coolest color grading I've ever seen. I'm selling my GH5 + Sigma 18-35 today and getting this camera if the EOS R5 won't be available during summer.
Hey Dustin! Love your videos, just got my s1h! Used your other settings video to configure mine ;) One thing about this video though; you should stay away from that audio limiter, it's kinda like setting your camera to auto. With the limiter on you're losing a lot of audio detail. A better way would be to set your levels correctly and always monitor your sound with headphones. A limiter can still be slammed on in post if you have someone scream in your camera anyways, but having it off will save you from accidentally setting your levels wrong because you think it's not clipping because the limiter is deceiving you. Hope that makes sense ;) Keep those videos coming, they're amazing value!
Thank you! Hope you love it like me! Thanks for the tip! The audio limiter I honestly haven't used in a real world scenario, but I can see it coming in handy in a situation where I don't have time to get headphones out and check levels or change levels on the fly. This is where I can see it coming in handy, but I agree and would never rely on it. In this video I was more showing an example/testing of the audio limiter could handle a very extreme case of peaking
Another great video! Thansk so much for it. could watch your channel all day long. Always some valuable information and those great colors and landscape where you live.
No thank you for watching! It's pretty right now and in winter can be pretty but it kind of get brown and ugly right before spring. But still so pretty most of the time!
dude your review or secrets of revealing the awesomeness of this camera is amazing. Rarely i see videographers and youtubers play football. Nice move, got to go now to continue watching the CL game and will be waiting for your other S1h aspect reviews.
Thank you! Football is the best, I've played goalkeeper my whole life, but I still have some tricks up my sleeve⚽️. Awesome! I've already got 2 more videos filmed testing out autofocus and IBIS/OIS. Stay tuned👍
@@DustinArmstrongPro cant wait, goal keeper is in my opinion is one of the hardest roles in football and rewarding too if you are good and lucky. Keep it up Dustin
Dude, i bought the S1H and man i must say it. Its way way more better and easier to color grade the footage with V-log than what i used with my other cameras, so flexible and fun. Thanks to you Dustin, you were the bullet of my decision. Now i have to assign my C1,2,3. Its completely new to me, since i never owned a panasonic system before but if figured how to work the hardest manu of sony, i guess this should not take long to configure and thanks for the other video which also helped a lot for a better jump start. A question tho, in the photo mode, i noticed that the RAW file is small compared to other 24MP cameras, it is usually around 50+ MP but with the S1H is 30+ MP, is this the same or is there a setting to dial ?
@@bmkq2007 Glad you like it! The higher bit depth helps with colorgrading too which most cameras only have 8 but internally. Glad the videos have helped👍 There might be a setting. I don't really take photos I'm more just a video guy so I haven't really messed a whole lot with the photo menu on the S1H. If I find a setting, I'll let you know
Hey Dustin, it’s on like a chicken bone!!! I sold both of my GH5’s and purchased the 2nd S1H bro... Its time to shoot that feature and present it to NetFlix.... It’s GO time!!!
Dustin Armstrong thanks bro. I just need the right Audio Field Recorder and Mic or Mics’s that will work without breaking the bank. Do you have any suggestions?
Can anyone tell me why Panasonic has never embraced the "Dual Pixel Autofocus" feature? As much as like Panasonic, as a nearly always a solo shooter, I just can't change from my Sony cameras unless its competitor offers the dual pixal AF. I really like all of the features on this SH1 ... Nice review, hope you enjoy and get a lot of use out of your investment.
Good autofocus is still a very new thing and it isn't all just software, but also hardware. I think we will see Panasonic release a camera soon with good autofocus. But for the record I came from Sony and just use manual on my Panasonic. It's more work but I think it's worth it. Also depends on what kind of stuff you're shooting. Good luck!
I'll add it to my list of things to compare and make a video in the future! From my experience, it takes great photos. Not sure about autofocus etc. but it's basically the same quality as an S1
Dustin Armstrong Great! Thank you for making S1H series! I’m really considering to get one, but not sure about Photo and Autofocus if they are good as Fujifilm, I would love to get one asap
Sure right. That statement was more to explain the comparison of how much light is being let it based on shutter speed compared to shutter angle. I guess I could have gone into how electronic shutters work, but the concept is essentially the same as mechanical.
Can you do a video on how to choose the right Video Recording Quality option for your needs? There's like a million to choose from. I recorded something recently at MOV 4K 10 Bit 422 24P 10-L LGOP 150 Mbs and the playback was skippy in some places. The SSD i'm playing from should be plenty fast, so I don't know why that would be the case. Maybe you've run into that?
Don't worry, I have lots coming out on the S1H. Next video I think is going to be handheld/IBIS/OIS tests or real world autofocus tests for video. Stay tuned 👊
Any idea why the V-Log on my S1H looks horrible. Any lens. Skin tones look very pink and blotchy. The footage also sometimes resembles a photo with color fringing. I believe I am exposed properly. I believe the white balance is accurate. Any suggestions?
Good video man 👍🏽. Please clarify one thing , if you have the 24-105 and you are using dual IS , is it still hard to rack focus without getting camera shakes ??
That's a good question. I'm sure then you'd probably be okay. I was just using that as an example of where it could be useful. I'm actually going to be testing dual IS Monday. I'll add that to my list of things to test
@@DustinArmstrongPro that would be super awesome man! Thanks! The thing I would like to know is if you can Half press the shutter to quickly grab focus on the subject and then smoothly turn focus ring to keep a relatively slow moving subject in focus without introducing much camera shake in the footage. I know the it's a lot to ask from a camera that is in a dslr form factor but the Idea is to use the S1H for professional run and gun documentary work. Because if not I will have to move to something bigger like the FX9 and be donne with it. FX9 is perfect but to big to and obtrusive.
I did some tests. Rack focusing, even without dual IS, just IS handheld, there's basically no camera shake. (Video coming soon) As far as quickly grabbing focus with half shutter, then focusing manually, you don't introduce much camera shake, but the S1H in some case will grab focus, but you're better off just using manual focus because the half press shutter or touch AF is just too unpredictable. (Also video coming soon testing the IBIS/OIS and autofocus with panasonic lenses and l mount sigma lenses)
Thanks for the great vid man! I am thinking of pulling the trigger on the S1h soon. Couple questions. 1) Can you put this on a gimbal with a cage? I thought I saw you had it on the Ronin S? 2) Does is crop in for the 4K footage? If so, is that a huge pain in the ars? Thanks man!
No problem thank you for the support. I haven't tried putting it on the Ronin S with a cage, but it will go on the the Ronin S with the focus motor no problem. It depends what you are recording. 4k at 24 FPS and 30 FPS it does not crop in. 4k at 48 FPS and 60 FPS it will do a 1.45x crop I believe. It's not that bad. Hasn't been a problem to me.
0 regrets. At first I was a little bummed about the autofocus, but everytime I start editing and see the footage, I'm in love. There's a few finicky things I hope they fix, but nothing that makes me hate the camera
Yes. You can still get flicker while using shutter angle since it is essentially the same thing as shutter speed, just a different way of looking at shutter.
I'm actually going to release a video of the S1H vs A7sIII, but the biggest difference is the S1H can shoot DCI 4K, 6K, Anamorphic modes, Anamorphic desqueeze, has waveform, vectorscope built it, and 24 megapixel sensor. S1H is also a bigger body, but besides that they're very similar. A7sIII is only 12 megapixels and has really good autofocus.
I can not access AF Custom Settings (Video) because is greyed out and tells me this message: "This item can not be set in the current mode. Current mode AFS" How can I change the current mode? what should I choose? Thanks!
@@DustinArmstrongPro The Switch next to the viewfinder has three options: MF C S I turned the camera OFF and put the Switch in C as you suggested. When I turn the camera ON I get a message on the screen that says "Switch to AFS" but I ignore it and do not touch it. Then I try to touch the "AF Custom Settings (Video)" and I still get the same message: "This item can not be set in the current mode. Current mode AFS", is like it still thinks that is on AFS Mode, but the switch is actually on AFC. Do you know why? If I switch to S, I still get the same message: "This item can not be set in the current mode.
