    • How bad is the dynamic range on this camera? Particularly the highlights? (I tend to just rate at base ISO and shoot traditionally rather than ETTR.)  I was hoping Red's highlight recovery (which isn't that great imo as you lose all color information) would help, but it seems to be disabled in RedCineX? I had sworn off new cameras but I sold my old ones and might need something for work. 
    • I wonder if it will ever get the 'Red-lite' raw codec 'everyone' wants... If that ever happens, what a fucking camera it would be.
    • Same year, same colour. Also 2x S9 (though my red one, the audio no longer works after I dropped it) + 3 other LUMIX bodies and 11x L Mount lenses...except I am giving away one of them, another is broken (dropped that also!) and 4 are being sold.   Ditto and my workflow is much better for that and actually, I genuinely like the SOOC look I am getting from my specific set up so all good. Even better with the S1Rii as it works in full-frame 50p 🙂 These really are awesome tools to have and my only gripe is there still isn't a lens to match the Tamron 35-100 f2.8 or Sony 50-150 f2. Yes I know there is that tub of lard Sausage 35-150mm f2/2.8 but nah. It would almost be worth it for me to flip systems next year just for that 50-150... I'd like to see a 'Nikon ZR' version of the S1Rii with the rear LCD mech also off the S1Rii, but possibly wishful thinking territory now...
    • The problem is that people online gather to complain (if they are happy they are usually silent), and the more appealing the price is, the more they seem to want to be sure they are getting their money's worth, assuming that every missing feature is an attempt to scam them of their money. The ZR price puts it into the radar of bargain hunters who have this mindset.    I'm confident enough that Nikon will improve h.265 log footage adequately to make it satisfying to use for those situations where RAW or Prores footage takes up too much space. It might not be the best h.265 nor does it have to be, given the price of the camera, but it shouldn't be noticeably soft, either. I also hope the Prores LT codec comes soon, and that the noise reduction can be adjusted when using Prores HQ and LT formats. 
    • I agree - back in early 2025, I'd been looking for a camera that could do good 4k50 in a compact, lighter, body (smaller and lighter than the Pana G9 and OM-1 that I already owned). Never really thought it would be a full-frame camera, but when Pana seriously dropped the S9 prices in the UK in Feb 2025 I grabbed a 'like new' red S9+18-40 lens bundle from Amazon, basically to try it out properly. The outcome was I now own two S9 bodies and five L-mount lenses... 🙂 (and rarely use my OM-1)  I didn't think I'd make much use of the real-time LUT capability, but I now use it all the time in conjunction with V-Log. My handheld 'general video' S9 is in a SmallRig Half Leather Case, which is nice to hold, adds a small grip and looks good. I use the Pana 70-300mm F4.5-5.6 lens sometimes (which supports Dual-IS), and the S9 stabilisation is good enough to shoot hand-held video at 300mm (with EIS enabled). The Hybrid Zoom feature is great too (although for video that only works up to 30fps).
