The 500mm sekor c has a minimal focous distance of 9 meters!

I have a 500mm caked with dust it’s pristine after I cleaned it… suggestions? I have a micro 4/3 camera right now to mount it on but have yet to order the adapter

Great summary. I still shoot on an S1 with the filmmakers upgrade. They are great cameras. Looking forward to the S1H successor, that’s the only cam ill leave my S1 for. That or an S1H until the S1H ii come out. Great shots.

I adapt non-L EF lenses on my Fuji and Panasonic cameras. They have such a great look compared to newer lenses and I've found that Fringer and Sigma adapters work really well

Thanks for the video, Brandon. Nice work too, by the way. How does the lens handle things like distortion and vignette? I have a handful of Canon lenses that I use on my Panasonic S-Series of bodies with the MC-21 adapter (EF 16-35 f/4L, EF 50mm f/1.8 STM, and the EF-S 10-18 IS STM), and while they work pretty well, the EF-S 10-18 has some pretty strong barrel distortion and vignette :( The EF 50mm is good (but it is apparently easy to make a good 50mm f/1.8 lens) and the 16-35 f/4 is surprisingly good, too.

This Lens is amazing 👌 many people use it.

Thank you for sharing this insightful video. I'll be looking into this lens.

Scored a second S1 like new condition, for 700 euros. Crazy no?

Forget whatever else says, THANK YOU for making this video and breaking down shooting on medium format lenses and its benefits! I greatly appreciate it!

The only thing holding me from buying it is the rolling shutter and AF 😢 Is the s5ii really that better at it?

Your video is very insightful. Currently, I have 2 GH5, 3 GH5S, 2 GH6 1 S5II cameras, mainly for multicamera productions. I am considering getting the S1H for a client’s documentary project, because they want the doc to have the potential to compete with Netflix’s docs.

Ot looks like you have no idea about focal lengths, depth of field etc. But you try to educate others.

I honestly brushed off Lumix cameras for years, until I tried one and colour graded the footage. It sold me immediately. The video tools really make these cameras a joy to use.

I put VLOG lut and colors were lovely. coming from sony and canon. canon were a bit more punchy but eco system is expensive.

I heard you say you watched a lot of content on S5iix. Now that the firmware update came out you might want to look again. (Focus and stabilizer addressed) Also the Lumix KZbin page, 3.5 years ago, addressed properly setting up AF for both photo and video in the Lumix Academy series. You aren't the first person I've heard shoots all manual on the S1H. I find it difficult to understand how they haven't been able to fix the focus on a body that's over double the price of the S5 series. It's the same sensor and stabilizer after all.

nice 38

Camera s1h or fx3 ?

comparing the ibis of s1h vs s5ii, which one is better? by how much?

This was very informative. Thank you for taking your time to make this 💪🏽

So no actual transformation??!! No engine shots... nothing...Wonder why it's got so few views?

It’s still a good camera BUT a used S5ii can shoot open gate 30. S1H can’t do that.

Haha nice video. In the opening I was thinking "This kinda looks like my city" .. I scroll down a little bit "Columbus, Ohio."

Put the Mamiya in the title... And then dont even talk about that lens in the video :D What the hell is in this mans head ??? At least change the title. Anything in the video had nothing to do with Mamiya!

Só does the s1h record 10bit or 12bit videos? Thank you so much for your valuable informations

beautiful, not a fan of the camaro steering wheel though

What a waste of time, find another video he talks about everything except what the title is about.

You touched upon a lot of interesting points and gave me a lot to think about. I only wish you'd talked more about the Mamiya 645 lenses for video, and your use of a speed booster. You only mentioned the speed booster once, in passing, and didn't even mention the brand. However, it was a helpful video. Thanks.

Great info on the IBIS flare dance.

Hey man nice Video, but i dont can see you´re using equipment for the S1H. I can only see stuff of sony biut you dont talking about this. Can you please update this informationj. Thanksy you a lot

❤💪👍💯

Chevy outclasses ford from 35-36 until 70’s when all car companies lost their minds. Put this car next to any ford of same era and chevy wins out all the time ❗️🇺🇸

S1H is the best Full frame camera Lumix made. They need to release a S1H Mk2 now. EVF is way better on S1H compared to the S5ii.

great video mate! thoroughly enjoyed listening

lol

Thanks for sharing. I’m on my second 38 with much to do. We have to keep these classics on the road, they are treasures

I almost bought one until I heard the rumors and decided to buy the s52x so I bought this one and not waiting on I hope the Limix h1x

The S5IIX is honestly such a great camera! I still have my S1H, almost never want to sell it tbh.

Glad I came by this channel.. in particular this video.. to get another owner operator's opinion on the S1H.. I too bought the SIH around the same time, but never liked using my range of Canon EF mount lenses on it as the flip out screen wasn't big enough for critical continual focus.. I have the Blackmagic Video Assist 7" 12g as my onboard monitor and ANYTHING out of the HDMI port on this camera is CRIMINALLY DELAYED! I wish I knew how bad it was beforehand!! So tracking focus for me can be the hardest thing about the S1H and HDMI.. I just wish it had an SDI out. .. Then came the BH1 that did.. after my purchase, but without all the codec flavours of the S1H. The image quality IS the S1H's trump card though. The dynamic range and 'the look' IMHO is it's unique selling point. I have long since adapted the S1H to PL mount to rig my FF Cine Zooms and a full swing away mattebox.. Now a camera rig on steriods, at 13KG it is a beast.. but as a DOP of 34 years, I have used a large array of different cameras.. I still like the S1H, and have built it out to more suit my work line of high-end IVs, Docs, and Commercials.. but sadly as I mainly work in Broadcast TV News these past 12 yrs.. the camera ratherly comes out.. an ENG camera it is not, and so has been mothballed these 3 years+ Still your description in editing and gradiing was very well explained, and as a less experienced operator in this field of post work, I gained mostly in this part from your monologue...Huge thanks for that!

Beautiful car! The only thing wrong is the same thing was wrong with mine. The orange front turn signals stick out like a sore thumb in my opinion (and I'm never wrong). Cars didn't had orange lens until about '63 and they look out of place. My'36 had little rectangle orange and chrome lights like I've seen on millions of rods. I found some small round chrome lights that come to a point in the back and have orange bulbs and CLEAR lens. I masked off the front 3/8" of chrome and painted the rest gloss black. They match the head lights and you don't even notice them until the turn signal is on. I bet you can just get clear lens for the lights you have.

Nice video, still undecided between the S1H and the S5IIx. A different topic, do you do some kind of spreading or stereoizing on your mic? Your wandering voice from left to right sounds strange somehow on headphones 😛 also I wonder about your high samplerate recording, do you convert it into a 48kHz project then? Best regards from the baltic sea 😊👍

This is an awesome video, thank you. I recently shot a feature film with my S5, (original, I love it so much) but I ran into an issue getting a DCP made because it didn’t shoot straight 24 FPS. So I was thinking of getting an S1 H for my next project, but after watching this, I don’t think I’m gonna go that way. It’s all your fault. :-) I’ve been thinking very seriously about the S5iix as well, but I like the idea of having an optical low pass filter. I actually love my S5, and I have only seen moire show up twice in the two years that I’ve been using it, but once I saw it, I can’t un-see it, it’s always on my mind. :-) I might just get a second S5, because I actually found out that I CAN get a DCP, and so at the end of the day, I’m not really sure I should even upgrade, but we’ll see. In any case, thanks so much for sharing this, it’s the first video I’ve seen that really made me consider my options. much appreciated.

i have S1h since 2020 and its awesome

I have found a Panasonic S1H for £1,400 uk pounds

Two other important features that pushed me to this camera from the S5, which I LOVE, but I shot a feature on the S5 and because it wasn't straight 24fps, I couldn't get a DCP made. Epic fail. And second reason... Optical low pass filter. No more moiré please. ;) Great video. Thanks for sharing.

Just bought a used one, can’t wait to get proficient with it. Pretty new to cinematography

I shoot the S1H and two Sigma FP cameras. Love them.

My fav camera ever . Can’t wait for the s1h2

i would love to see a video comparing the Canon 24-70 2.8 on the S1H or S5 ii vs the Panasonic 24-70 2.8

Really useful, do you have a link to the LUT you used?

I bought it when it came out. It’s still a solid camera and can take the punishment of hard use. I’ll use it as a B/C when the new one comes out.
