Hello there,
In the last few months I have been watching for a new camera in the price range of 1000-4000 dollars or euros to buy for shortfilm projects and maybe photography (this for me is a secondary aspect I do not need that much because I have another cheaper photography-only cam but which is nice to have).
During my researches I found the Panasonic Lumix S1H which for me seems to be the best camera you can possibly get in this range of money. It has many features and only a few disadvantages:
Advantages:
-6k Video 10 bit 24 fps
-multiple FHD, 4k and 5.9 K modes
-Very Nice Lowlightbehaviour so you can use footage up to 12800 without any problems in video and photography
-Lowpassfilter
-Imagestabilization
-96 MP-Image mode for not-moving things
-Full-Frame Sensor
-Even ProRes Raw will be possible if you own the right recorder
-14 Stops+ Dynamic Range
-Best digital viewfinder in this price area
-Autofocus does work very well for a Camera with this specs
-Ability to save footage on SD cards cheaply
-According to reviews: The cam has almost no problems with weather
-Completely turnable Screen
-Internal camera-ventilation
Little Disadvantages (which do not matter for me):
-expensive + not very many lenses (but with the mc-21 adapter you do not have the problem)
-Low Pass filter makes image a bit less sharp (but you only see this problem by zooming in s1 and s1h footage 200% and then comparing)
-SlowMo in 6k is not possible (I do not use it so often. If I need slowmo I can also go down to 4k)
-ventilation can be loud (but only in 6k and putting the microphone directly onto the camera instead of near the people/objects/things you film is not very often a good idea)
-everything under 6k is cropped in
-3999 Euros is money - this is the only bigger problem for me but for that amount of features I am ready to pay
So finally this camera seems to be a GOD. But although this camera seems to be close to perfect I better ask other people if they now: Are there any cameras in this money-class which are more godlike? Or is there any big problem with the S1h i forgott to mention or I do underestimate in this post?
Thanks for answer in before.
