Panasonic S1H Best Tips and Tricks! Get the MOST Out of the S1H!

[@nelsdawgy]

I bought this camera and Panasonic gave me the camera at 25% off so I could do a short film for them... LOVE this camera!!!

[@JonackFilm]

I have this camera since 2 months now. It is amazing

[@gibblsworthiscool]

the waveform monitor being set to one of the top function keys can help easily measure levels in the foreground and background and provides a ton of live information that may help expose better than the exposure meter tool.

[@aerofart]

TED, I’m enjoying to see you excited about the S1H and being how much you love the GH5 (as do I), I am far more likely to trust your opinions of the S1H. But the reason I was motivated to comment today is how excited you are about discovering the cinema info and control screen on the S1H. I kid you not, I just discovered it’s usefulness myself on the GH5 after owning it for a year. It’s an amazing feature that just has NO EQUAL in video shooting found in any other prosumer cam (e.g. BMPCC 4K/6k, ZCam, etc). Eureka!

[@didriketholm6852]

I'm a recent convert from Sony. Got the S5 and I'm loving it so far. I got the camera for photography because of their super res mode, 6k/4k photo and most importantly the live composite mode. I'm just scratching the surface on this camera.

[@followtheboat]

Just watching as I type this so maybe you'll cover it anyway but my most used feature on the GH5 is to assign focus lock to the front function button. Put the camera in MF, point at your subject and hit that function button. It focuses faster than AF and locks in, to be overridden by the focus ring when needed. This trick is particularly useful when talking to camera. Hold the camera out in front of you and that function button is easy to hit before hitting record. I used this as a workaround to the GH5's dodgy AF but now I use it all the time, always stay in MF and never miss a shot. I'm loving your clips on the S1H because it's a beast of a camera. My only concern is the size for vlogging. I moved from FF to m43 for this reason but miss the low light capabilities. Keep up the great work.

[@robinmordasiewicz]

I can’t stop loving your new aesthetic, but I repeat myself.

[@rdfilms.]

It can also shoot 1080p @ 120fps with sound and AF ( please search it in codecs lineup FHD options) Love the camera!

[@labrow]

I love this. So much love and enthusiasm. I’ve just got the S1H after years of Canon and I’m blown away. I got so much from this video, thanks.

[@KeithsTVHD1]

How are you liking the Panasonic so far?

[@labrow]

@@KeithsTVHD1 Very much. I'm massively impressed by how well aligned to video this is, rather than it feeling like a bolt-on. No need to wade through menu options that aren't relevant to you. Lots of well thought-out features and little touches. It does't have the quick and sure autofocus of the Canon, but I knew that in advance and it's not a deal-breaker.

[@TheLostKuma]

This is actually very in-depth. Going to have to watch it more properly at home after work... I'm really glad to see the 4k live crop has made it over... wasn't able to find if it had or not. I didn't even know it existed until watching one of your gh5 videos to begin with. 8 more days til that s1h rental.

[@clifftotten7609]

As a former 25 year Sony shooter, I friggin' LOVE the S1. There is only one thing I would it could do. When running under auto shutter or auto iris or auto gain/ISO....the S1 HIDES what settings it is using. Sony's never do that. Sony's will always show what auto parameter it is using at the moment in real time. C'mon, Lumix,....stop covering that info up and just display it for us! Great video!

[@BadKarma714]

I got a lumix G7 and I love it I just wish I could get a monitor to work on it while recording

[@EdStarkey]

Another tip is you can program your button just by doing a long press. But the big update is high frame rate mode. Where VFR records in 8-bit with no audio or autofocus, HFR mode records 10-bit and it lets you record 1080p at 120 fps with audio and autofocus! You have to do the slowdown in post, but all the frames are there.

[@christaylorphoto]

Fantastic video, thank you so much. I've been using the S1H since Dec 2019 and still picked up some tips from this. Loving your work!

[@simblethings]

Constant preview being off gives a more DSLR-like experience, which can be good for a lot of people switching to mirrorless. I have constant preview on a shortcut button on my GH5.

[@DonAbaddonn]

Excellent info my dude. So under-rated video.. come on YT algo.. do your magic !!

[@JayHawkins]

Do you have a video going into more detail on the Ninja V + iPad setup you're using here?

[@georgenada6413]

Glad to hear you like the v-log so much on this camera and that is seems to be the full version. I have it on the GH-5 and have always found it, like many others, kind of broken! I don't even even up using it.

[@ThisIsTechToday]

Thumbnail looks good!

[@TheEverydayDad]

Thanks! I got nervous and switched it out for a minute but it’s back in force 😅

[@ThisIsTechToday]

@@TheEverydayDad ah, you got rid of the one with you in it?!

[@Ryan-Payne]

You actually don't need the VFR mode on the S1H, it's my favourite part. The S1H allows you to record up to 120 FPS with audio in the 4:2:0 10 bit h265 codec which you then interpret down to 24p in your NLE. - [FHD] 1920x1080 119.88p, 150Mbps (4:2:0 10-bit LongGOP)* If you want over 120 then you'l have to downgrade but when you can get 120p 10bit why would anyone go beyond?

[@markspinks9998]

Awesome 🤘 I just Bought the S1H .....thanks for the video

[@mikemcglasson1286]

So, if I use the crop modes, I'll be able to use lenses that don't cover the full frame censor?

[@JesseGollCodes]

Man, that shutter angle feature looks amazing, and it has a flippy screen? It's like Panasonic was listening to content creators when they designed the S1h

[@TheEverydayDad]

If only it didn’t weigh more then the rest of my camera gear put together 🤣

[@JesseGollCodes]

Hahaha, yeah it is a beast to carry, I remember how heavy it felt compared to my A7III w/24-105 f/4 when I tested the S1h in August. But for all those features and the built-in cooling fan there had to be a trade-off somewhere. It's still lighter than my old A77II with the battery grip installed, so that's a win right?

[@JesseGollCodes]

@koma yes, yes I do, I want a flippy screen, 4k 60, 10bit 4:2:2, full frame, good reliable autofocus, good low-light performance, good battery life, at least 2 UHS-II slots, and under 5lbs. That's not too much to ask right?

[@MichaelJLong]

The ability to set shutter angle would be so huge. Nice vid. Thanks for sharing!

[@christywilcoxtv]

I just got a Ronin RS3 gimbal. I can't get the bluetooth to detect my S1H. Any tips for troubleshooting connection issues? I have checked to make sure the newest firmware... restarted... disconnected from my LUMIX synch app and still can't get the gimbal to connect to my camera. HELP.

[@captaint5772]

Hello, I'm shooting mov in V-log 4K 10bit video format. It opens only as an audio file in QuickTime and Davinci resolve. I can see the same file as image when I drag it to Adobe premier What is the reason of this?

[@WinslowLincoln]

Enjoy your presentations. When using the internal intervalometer, does the constant preview still work?

[@tysonmurray4318]

Awesome video! Do you see yourself using the Panasonic Eva1?

[@TheEverydayDad]

I’d give it a shot if I could get ahold of one, but I actually really like the form factor of hybrid cameras 👍

[@tysonmurray4318]

@@TheEverydayDad I love my Sony FS5 but I dislike the slog. The V log sounds interesting. Thanks for the video.

[@zacredacted2137]

You are very good at staying right in front of that backlight lol. New set up looks really nice 👍🏻.

[@meraakifilms]

Hi TED, can you use the camera (video recording) while charging via external power banks through that usb c port?

[@pecx86]

What do you think about new Panasonic HC-X2000?

[@Arri.]

Thank you sir life saviour😊

[@RJinspire]

That's a beast of a camera, thanks for this video. How heavy is the camera and is it worth considering for a solo travelling vlogger?

[@TheEverydayDad]

I mean it’s pretty big, if you are used to big cameras with iffy autofocus then go for it. But I will stick with my GH5 if weight is an issue 👍

[@RJinspire]

@@TheEverydayDad, GH5 costs around $2,000 😱😂, I'm a backpacker solo travel vlogger😱😂. I need a lot of help (donations) to get any camera that's over $1000

[@weedanwine]

@@RJinspire You'd be better off with something like the M50 for traveling with.

[@RJinspire]

@@weedanwine I'm looking for one at the moment. Canon G7 Mark III is a bit too expensive. I've read many reviews and this channel has been brilliant on giving a full review on the M50, thanks

[@weedanwine]

@@RJinspire If you really wanted to go small then you could get a Sony X3000 or GoPro. But M50 gives you more flexibility and can be used as a studio cam when you're not travelling too. There should be some good deals on the M50 if you get it used. i bought the GH5 for £2500 with 3 lenses, but I use it more as a studio cam with occasional outdoor filming. It's not what I would choose to take backpacking with me.

[@WilsonFlyer]

Love your channel, bud. Let us know when you come back down here with the rest of us where you started. ;-)

Hi, can you help me please, I have the S1H, and I'm having trouble trying to figure it out the value from custom white balance that I shot the grey card. Is that possible to know the value? (To add the same WB value in another camera)

[@BobbyWashingtonvlog]

Hey EVD, do you know how to use timecode with a field mixer like the Mix-Pre 6ii?

[@MichaelJLong]

Also the horizon scope on the display makes it feel like you’re flying a plane. And let’s be honest, pilots are just cool.

[@orangerecords_studio]

does it overheat, in ., lets say one hour of continious recording ?

[@markattardo]

It makes me happy to see the hotshoe cover is in it's proper place😁 Even though this is about the beast, the GH5 is killing it! You really have the studio setup dialed in.👍👍 Oh yeah, good tips too.
