    Surely you are trolling here and can not be serious.

    How does the situation with Olympus impact Panasonic's commitment to M43? 
    Is there a reason why they've stuck with DFD for auto focus in video, even as competitors have moved away from it? 
    Do they plan to continue to have two branches of the GH series moving ahead?

    Many people here praise the footage coming out from Panasonic S1, especially the 10 bit h265 422 LongGOP @150mbps
    Is there any chance you could include it in the comparison, as well, @Andrew Reid?

    Metabones recently announced the long-awaited Canon EF mount Speed Booster Ultra for Fuji X, which will be one of the must-have accessories for X-T4 owners. This will have support for phase-detect AF and incorporates Caldwell Optics advanced 5-element ultra-high index tantalum optics. The Caldwell Optics focal reducer remains the best you can get.

    Mike Mgee reacted to deezid in Panasonic S1H review / hands-on - a true 6K full frame cinema camera   
    After firmware 2.0 I see less reasons to do so. Would love some more less cropped high frame rate options.
    Overall 2.0 is quite impressive for V-Log.

    Magenta tint seems gone
    Orange/yellow lights won't burst into noise anymore
    Sharpening seems to be turned off
    Noise reduction -1 fixes the motion related issues, also much nicer grain pattern which matches the framerate (temporal NR seems to be gone entirely)
     
    Here's a small test I did for an upcoming music video

    One user tested via the same method that Cinema5D does, and gave the Monstro a score of 13.4. Interestingly enough the Alexa got a similar result, but as we all know its the quality of the pixels that matter. Anyway, Monstro at 13.4...Komodo at what...13?  S1H has a result of 12.7 so this will be interesting. I am assure red will be able to squeeze out more due to Redcode and their patents.

    @Video Hummus Canon claims 16 stops of the C300MKIII but Cinema5D pegged it at around 12.8. Which is 0.1 higher than the S1H. 😕

    Ah, I mean if they added  that feature to the S1 or introduced a new model.  Not everyone needs 6k.

    IBIS + Highlight Rolloff is better on the S1H.  IBIS allows me to stabilize my Contax Zeiss lenses. Since there is more DR in the S1H the highlight rolloff is smoother. I think the default color is better on the S1H...but that can be matched to the BM cameras with ease.

    @thebrothersthre3 I don't know much about highlight rolloff nor color grading. I threw every LUT you can imagine at it, that promised "smoother highlight rolloff" but at the end of the day I think it was a dynamic range issue. 
    I think RAW shooting is great, but I don't think it is the end all solution that everyone claims it to be. Yes, it is great if you fuck up white balance. And it is much easier to fix exposure, but it is something many of us don't really need. I initially shot with the A7III and Sony's busted 8bit codec. I felt BRAW was the final solution to my woes...and it was! It really solved all the issues I had before. But shooting in VLOG or any other proper codec...and exposing properly...and hitting your WB correctly as you should...eh...I can live without BRAW.

    @deezid Here is some good news for you here:
     
    The value of noise reduction in [V-Log] in Photo Style has been expanded to [-1]. It suppresses afterimages previously occurred in some situations. There were cases where color banding appeared in 4:2:0/10-bit video recording in some situations. This bug has been minimized. There were rare cases where the camera froze during [Segmented File Recording] or during recording at 400 Mbps under a particular set of conditions including the type of SD Card used. This phenomenon has been improved.

    @Eric Calabros Regardless. If they are measuring all cameras at the same SN Ratio, it provides an easy way to compare them.
