The S1 firmware 2.0 is incredible! Been using the S1 for a year now, and I feel it's a new camera with the 6k ability. One thing I noticed that few people or none discussed is the fact that they removed the downscaler from the S1. The HDMI Rec output down convert setting is gone. I do lots of medical shoot were I need to setup multiple monitors in a room for focus and exposure checkups on skin. I firmware 1.7 there was a down convert 10bit to 8bit in HDMI output... they removed it. Now if a monitor does not support 4k 10bit input, it wont work anymore. Use to work in firmware 1.7 and now gone with firmware 2.0... I hope Panasonic will address this in firmware 2.1 and put back the down convert 4k to 1080p on the HDMI output for monitoring purposes.
