I also own an S1h and was very pleasantly surprised with the autofocus performance using the lumix s 16-35 f4 lens and the 2.2 firmware. Huge huge difference! I also own a sigma l mount 40mm and the af is just terrible with that lens (iq is breathtaking) Apparently native lenses work better when it comes to autofocus. Used the A7siii for a few days to try it and the autofocus is amazing, but the footage is noticeably softer. Also the 4k 120 fps seemed fantastic, but in post it just takes too much time and much processing power. Sticking to my s1h for now.
I did the switch. In terms of pure picture quality I would say that I the S1H has the sharper image. And no joke the 4K120 is hell on my computer right now.(3950x AMD) . But since I got two big projects that needed more pixels and Slowmotion I made the switch. I still prefer the feel of the S1H but the autofocus and pice of mind that the more stable A7sIII gives Is worth it. I do miss the tilt flipp screen every day.
@@creativenords That editing process was something I hadn't taken into consideration well enough. I have a great editing workstation, but those 120 fps 4k files are just beyond what I would call useful. Too bad you weren't able to do a test with the new firmware and possibly a native lens, I couldn't believe the difference in performance. Still not as good as the Sony AF, but reliable enough for professional use I think, fast and responsive. Much better than 3d party l-mount lenses. I also considered the switch to Sony but when I looked at the cost I reconsidered. Just too expensive for me, selling an almost brand new camera and paying the full amount for a new one plus the glass plus memory cards. You need at least a few lenses with AF so adapters don't always work. Now I only invested in one native lens and I'm good to go. May be you could do a video on the A7SII in a professional workflow, I'd be interested to see what you think of the LOG / skin tones and so on.
@arishouwing the auto focus is my worry. I’m shopping for a hybrid camera right now and I want 4K 60 with 10bit and Sony seems to be the most reliable with the AF specially the eye AF.
@@TruthMusicStudios For hybrid I wouldn’t go for the sony, the s1h is much better at photography. For video, the sony clearly wins at AF, but the latest firmwares of Panasonic gave us a pretty decent AF performance. But AF, I don’t use it at all when things are really important shooting video.
Hi, Cool review, thanks. S1R shooter here, I use a couple of Sigma 1.4 primes and a couple of Panasonic Zooms (kit 24-100 & the 70-200 2.8). The camera definitely performs better AFC with the native glass for video but for stills there’s barely a noticeable difference between the Sigma DG DN’s at least and the Panasonic’s and they all perform impressively in all AF modes. But I’m not a pro videographer and you would know, it’s a shame the native glass is so expensive or I’d be all out native on this mount. Having said that the Sigma’s L mounts are excellent lenses.
I like everything about the S1H except the "Panasonic Auto-Focus", I spent a few months with a GH5, and it just doesn't cut it for my projects. I really like Panasonic image quality and colors right out of the camera. Great show, I enjoyed the details and the things you learned from your experience with the camera.
Nice vid...but i still believe that the a7siii stills are super underrated...and even after watching this, i dont think the s1h, a7siii and r5 arent really competing. Vor video the sony is just straight up better if slowmo is any consideration. For Photo R5 is boss. For Hybrid...S1H IS capable, but really niche...cool that it fits your niche there! The image in 24p on the S1h is absolutely superb!
Great video, indeed. Also bought the S1H, being aware of the poor AF-C in video. After shooting for a while in V-Log only to get the hightest dynamic range out of the camera, I needed to switch to cine-like D for some low light shots (V-Log is not really the best choice for low light). And the other day, I incedently figured out that the AF-C in video mode works very (!) good if not shooting in V-Log. I believe the reason behind is that the contrast AF of the S1H just does need to work with the low contrast V-Log signal when shooting in this mode, leading the Af to permanenty seek for what to focus on. From the recent announcement re the upcoming firmware update for the S series from Panasonig they explicetly mention "improved AF when shooting V-Log). I expect they bake some little contrast enhancement piece of SW into the signal path from sensor to AF-C SW.
@CJ Jacobs The firmware update for the SH1 is available by today. I will download and install it tonight, and hopefully it will improve the AF-C in V-Log significantly as promised. This would close the only true gap / weakness of this camera. Everything else is so fantastic.
@CJ Jacobs Hey, just installed V2.2 - AFC appears to work like crazy in V-Log - feels like having a new camera! Lover to hear from your experience. cheers,...Axel
Killer cam, but I feel the price is too high now in comparisson. Especially with the S5 out there and limited variable frame rates (120 4K), limited full frame options. For 2800 with lens this would be the absolute go to.
Jag var väldigt nöjd med den. Fantastiskt färger! Just nu är den ju dessutom riktigt billig såg den för under 35 på mellandagsrean. För mig blev det dock en A7SIII till slut. Fick ett par jobb som krävde mer slowmotion i högre framerates . Men när det kommer till ren bild prestanda i 24P tror jag att S1H faktiskt tar Sonyn.
the 4k60p is not about the data, it is about reading the sensor. you could do like the s1r and read full width, but it would lineskip and that is a soft image, like the 4k120p of the r5. they had the choice of a more high quality crop or a wider softer shot. Since the gh4, they have consistently gone crop except s1r 60p (and maybe the s1r 4k 24/30p is also lineskipped? not sure.
For me now that the S5 got BRAW update that would be the natural choice for me since I do both video and stills work. The pocket 6k has some better video features, however I'm very happy with my S5 and the A7sIII.
@@Milan-cf1xe Right now I am still on my Sony cams. I am experimenting with Magic Lantern and Internal raw on old Canons. The idea is to buy a camera which can record Raw internally. 6K Pro looks like a good choice but i have known people whose cameras just died after 6 months. I think I will wait for version 2 of 6K Pro, which is going to be stable. Subscribed to your channel.
@@DineshBhadwal This is not my channel. I am here just to comment. @Milan Arius is my real channel. I bought the S5 and simply love it. Honestly i wanted a Blackmagic camera since the announcement in 2018 if the 4k. But i always could withstand the urge to buy it and now i can say it was the right choice. You cant imagine how helpful the IBIS on the S5 is. And also the ability to just grab th camera with 3 batteries and shoot a full day. But in a perfect world i would own a BMPCC 6k PRO for planned shots and a S5 for Run and Gun. Then again i can buy the Blackmagic Video Assist and shoot BRAW with the S5 so its kinda a BMPCC. The internal Raw doesnt make much sense to me because you have to rig out a BMPCC anyways
I have a doubt between Lumix s5 or Sony a7SIII, which one do you recomend me? I film corporate video,wedding and skateboard videos. Af is important for interviews and difficult shots but I preffer dynamic range and Image quality
You're gonna need AF for skateboarding I think. In that sense, Panasonic is out unless you are a master at focus pulling. I think if you go Panny, the S1 is a better option, just for the full size HDMI. They both have great dynamic range.
Nice review! I have the camera for one year now working my way through all the different recording options, especially V-Log. Soon I will try Prores RAW. You could maybe make a video about your RAW workflow :) You are totally right about the cropped 4k50/60p mode! I was hoping that the new firmware release of November 24 would give us a non-cropped option. But apparently not ... On the Panasonic S series facebook page, someone claimed that the S1H is not capable to do that. But I really doubt that! Contacting Panasonic, they could not give any satisfying answer. L-Mount: I bought the Lumix S Pro 24-70mm as my main work horse, but I hesitate to buy more L-Mount lenses. I am thinking about buying some Cine lenses from IRIX. They deliver them in L-Mount, but I really really hesitate. I think I will go with PL or Canon EF ( I have the MC-21 adapter), just to be able to use these lenses on other cameras in the future. As for autofocus, the new firmware update is said to improve it considerably. We will know in a few days ...
I came across a used set of Zeiss Milvus 1,4 in Nikon mount. They are just fantastic. Yeah after I released this video I got a few productions that require more slow motion so I will be buying a A7SIII so I think it’s back to the Sony camp for me. Which is super annoying in some ways because I so enjoy the S1H as my main hybrid camera.
@@creativenords Well, who can blame you with all these new amazing cameras coming out over the last months. The new Sony FX6 has some nice slomo capabilities as well. Makes my head spin. But I will keep the S1H for now.
@CJ Jacobs The S1H is DOWNSAMPLING any 4K and FHD from 6K. That's at least what you can see on The DP Journey channel: S1H: What no one is talking about. Downsampling is ok, the image quality does not suffer. PIXEL BINNING is more destructive. Thanks for the link! I will take a look right now.
Hi, I’m looking at your peak design anchor setup. I have an s5 and I have the same setup, but it tends to shake a little bit and make the jingle sound unless I cover it with earbud covers. Are you having this issue at all? Also do you happen to use the anchors with a cage or l bracket? Thanks.
Tried to turn on notifications for your content but it says they’re disabled for childrens content. Not sure what it is with the settings for your channel but just thought I would give you the heads up
great video dude, so, the slow motion fishing shot at 11:00.....is that 4k 60? That is the highest frame rate the s1h can go yeah? I'm leaning towards the a7siii since im more video centric but I heard some people complain about the codecs
The S1H does 180FPS but at a musch lower quality. I does ProresRAW at 4K60 with a 1.6 crop. I have since bought the Sony A7sIII, the codecs are a problem for some with weaker computers right now. Most RUclipsrs complain about the codecs are cutting on laptops. I think we will se a lot more computers coming out with H.265 acceleration like Apples M1 Macs this year.
@@creativenords cool thanks, just checking back on this, how have you liked your A7S3? Better than s1h? I can’t wait any longer for Panasonic GH6 to come out so I might pull the trigger on the Sony FX3!
@@ryansulak Super happy with my A7SIII, yet I bought an S5 after my A7SIII. As my B-Cam it is an insane value with ProresRAW and BRAW capability. However I love the autofocus on the Sony.
If you pick up and shake your s1h, in various directions, with the power on, but no lens attached, do you hear anything? Do you hear / feel sounds of parts gently shifting or any rattling noises or is it dead quiet? I’m asking, because you have one and I recently dropped my padded camera bag from about three feet and I’m trying to figure out if the noise I’m hearing was present before the fall. In other words, that it’s normal. My camera functions perfectly fine and the fall wasn’t super hard, but still, would like to hear from a real user. Thanks for any and all help!
I want Lumix S5 with A7III autofocus, so now I can't decide what to do. A7SIII is way more expensive exactly 2.5x the price, S5 seems like the only good allrounder for stills and video quality, but not AF...
As it happens I have both the S5 and A7SIII. The S5 gets little to no use because I switch from using manual EF lenses on both to mostly Sigma Art primes on Sony. And I got to say that having reliable autofocus does make a world of difference in my workflow.

The S1H CAN be adapted to EF lenses with a simple $150 adapter (L mount to EF). It’s just like adapting EF lenses to a micro 4/3 body. Don’t know why you don’t know this and complain about the expense of buying L mount lenses??
Hi I have the MC21 adapter. I also used the Canon 24-70 2.8 MKII and Tamron 70-200 2.8 G2 on the S1H and now the S5. However it does not work as well as using native L glas. Especially for video. The point is one has a lot more lenses to choose from if you go for Sony, Nikon or Canon. Also there are a lot of third party cameras that use EF and RF mount so for that reason EF Glass is a lot better investment that L-Mount at the moment.
I have been using the Panasonic GH5 for a few years now and it is a decent hybrid camera but I am looking to upgrade to a full frame. But still looking at the a7s3 because I could use the better auto focus and low light work. I do run and gun, events and stuff where I don't have control on lights and stuff. Just all cost too much for me now as I would need all new lenses too.
I hear you. I made the switch to A7sIII and its simply wonderful to have working AF. It is the standout feature for me. I get so much more done with the A7sIII also the fact that I can record proresRAW and a good h-265 file for safety at the same time is gold!
@@creativenords that is cool, I probably wouldn't be needed the ProRes Raw and I edit on Davinci Resolve so I don't think it would work on that anyhow. I just gotta save up for the a7s3 and lenses. Maybe by the time I ready it will drop in price but then a new version would probably be out. Never ending new gear to get !
Coulnt agree more, same dilemma and same as you I stayed with S1H 😅 With firmware 2.2 video AF works a bit better but still not 100% on lower F. 4k 60fps big regret :( AF for sport stills (kiteboarding actually haha) also not the dream, but fine. Curious what 2021 will bring. Updated R5 (R1?) or someething new from Lumix with finally working AF??
Yes I am as well. Hopefully Panasonic comes out with a replacement for the EVA-1 and Varicam. I think I would do wonders for the L-Mount l. In Scandinavia the S1H now dropped about 1200 Euros since I made the episode. I sold mine and got a A7SIII since I booked a lot more video work. I did one shot with S1H and lowa probe lens where the crop absolutely destroyed the look and that was it for me.
@@creativenords hmm and how is A7Siii working for you? from all the reviews I saw I just dont like the image that much, quite digital and super greeish, especially skin tones.. I would not mind 12MP for photos, I shoot a lot but mostly for socials so would be fine for me (and can get older A7 for backup and stills). Actually for me 1080p would be enough, but 1080p from S1H just looks mushy and not so nice :/ I decided to stick around since I invested quite a lot into the L mount until there is something out that would work 100% for me :/
@@AmuniMedia I would say that like with all Sony cameras I get it to where I want but sure the green is there, all tough not as pronounced as previous generations. As you stated I can always buy a cheap A7R MK I or II if I need more megapixels but I also have the Sigma FP. But over all I like the A7SIII quite a lot. The lack of crop factor being a big part of that. And the autofocus is SUPER useful in some of my use cases. Do I prefer the ergonomics and build of the S1H YES! But all I all I am happy with the switch for my current use.
what company do you do all those work for, like you say? You have your own bussiness, and who are Ur clients ? I cant find even a website on you, is it creative nords ?
@@creativenords I have been literally ripping my hair out trying to compare a camera to get. I am tired of the student film look that cameras give trying to make like film films. Do you feel like you lost that cinematic touch for the a7siii? I also have the a7iii so do you think I would just sell that to upgrade? or should I keep my a7iii also?
Yes the R5C is now my current main camera. Very happy with it so far. However I have an S5 as backup just because I just love the image from Panasonics S series.

If you pick up and shake your s1h, in various directions, with the power on, but no lens attached, do you hear anything? Do you hear / feel sounds of parts gently shifting or any rattling noises or is it dead quiet? I’m asking, because you have one and I recently dropped my padded camera bag from about three feet and I’m trying to figure out if the noise I’m hearing was present before the fall. In other words, that it’s normal. My camera functions perfectly fine and the fall wasn’t super hard, but still, would like to hear from a real user. Thanks for any and all help!
This is the floating sensor that allows for the IBIS. The sensor has to float to compensate for the shake. Your camera is fine!
I want Lumix S5 with A7III autofocus, so now I can't decide what to do. A7SIII is way more expensive exactly 2.5x the price, S5 seems like the only good allrounder for stills and video quality, but not AF...
As it happens I have both the S5 and A7SIII. The S5 gets little to no use because I switch from using manual EF lenses on both to mostly Sigma Art primes on Sony. And I got to say that having reliable autofocus does make a world of difference in my workflow.

The S1H CAN be adapted to EF lenses with a simple $150 adapter (L mount to EF). It’s just like adapting EF lenses to a micro 4/3 body. Don’t know why you don’t know this and complain about the expense of buying L mount lenses??
Hi I have the MC21 adapter. I also used the Canon 24-70 2.8 MKII and Tamron 70-200 2.8 G2 on the S1H and now the S5. However it does not work as well as using native L glas. Especially for video. The point is one has a lot more lenses to choose from if you go for Sony, Nikon or Canon. Also there are a lot of third party cameras that use EF and RF mount so for that reason EF Glass is a lot better investment that L-Mount at the moment.
Where did you get the Nicest 33 Rec 709 LUT?
I have been using the Panasonic GH5 for a few years now and it is a decent hybrid camera but I am looking to upgrade to a full frame. But still looking at the a7s3 because I could use the better auto focus and low light work. I do run and gun, events and stuff where I don't have control on lights and stuff. Just all cost too much for me now as I would need all new lenses too.
I hear you. I made the switch to A7sIII and its simply wonderful to have working AF. It is the standout feature for me. I get so much more done with the A7sIII also the fact that I can record proresRAW and a good h-265 file for safety at the same time is gold!
@@creativenords that is cool, I probably wouldn't be needed the ProRes Raw and I edit on Davinci Resolve so I don't think it would work on that anyhow. I just gotta save up for the a7s3 and lenses. Maybe by the time I ready it will drop in price but then a new version would probably be out. Never ending new gear to get !
Was this video shot on the s1h! looks great
It was shot on my Sigma Fp with a Mamiya Sekor C 80mm 1.9 and Kipon speedbooster.
How is the photograpy of this camera if you aren't using native glass. Isn't it very bad with an adapter?
I used mine with a Sigma lens 150-600 mm (Canon adapter on the S1H) and was blown away with the results.
Coulnt agree more, same dilemma and same as you I stayed with S1H 😅 With firmware 2.2 video AF works a bit better but still not 100% on lower F. 4k 60fps big regret :( AF for sport stills (kiteboarding actually haha) also not the dream, but fine. Curious what 2021 will bring. Updated R5 (R1?) or someething new from Lumix with finally working AF??
Yes I am as well. Hopefully Panasonic comes out with a replacement for the EVA-1 and Varicam. I think I would do wonders for the L-Mount l. In Scandinavia the S1H now dropped about 1200 Euros since I made the episode. I sold mine and got a A7SIII since I booked a lot more video work. I did one shot with S1H and lowa probe lens where the crop absolutely destroyed the look and that was it for me.
@@creativenords hmm and how is A7Siii working for you? from all the reviews I saw I just dont like the image that much, quite digital and super greeish, especially skin tones.. I would not mind 12MP for photos, I shoot a lot but mostly for socials so would be fine for me (and can get older A7 for backup and stills). Actually for me 1080p would be enough, but 1080p from S1H just looks mushy and not so nice :/ I decided to stick around since I invested quite a lot into the L mount until there is something out that would work 100% for me :/
@@AmuniMedia I would say that like with all Sony cameras I get it to where I want but sure the green is there, all tough not as pronounced as previous generations. As you stated I can always buy a cheap A7R MK I or II if I need more megapixels but I also have the Sigma FP. But over all I like the A7SIII quite a lot. The lack of crop factor being a big part of that. And the autofocus is SUPER useful in some of my use cases. Do I prefer the ergonomics and build of the S1H YES! But all I all I am happy with the switch for my current use.
@@creativenords hm hm yea will keep that in mind.. I will wait for 2021 and see :) Wish you good shots!
what company do you do all those work for, like you say? You have your own bussiness, and who are Ur clients ? I cant find even a website on you, is it creative nords ?
Yes I have but I keep my RUclips life separate. I work for Scandinavia’s version of Home Depot as a Content Creator.
what camera are you using here, it's niceeeeeeee is this the S1H?
Sigma FP with Mamiya sekor C 80mm 1.9 and kipon speedbooster.
nice!
so what lens do you us that work the best with the s1h and whats the useable exposure latitude ?
Hi! I used the Canon 24-70 2.8. It’s my favorite all around lens.
U sold ur Z6? 🙂
Wait so you ended up getting the a7siii back?
Yes! And my second camera is an S5🙈
@@creativenords I have been literally ripping my hair out trying to compare a camera to get. I am tired of the student film look that cameras give trying to make like film films. Do you feel like you lost that cinematic touch for the a7siii? I also have the a7iii so do you think I would just sell that to upgrade? or should I keep my a7iii also?
S1h very empressv job
Bothers me that he misspelled panasonic
hahaha
Fixed
Did you shoot this video on the camera?
No this is shot on the Sigma FP
I did the same!
have 2 R5 bodies - problem solved
Oh so you need the R5C
Yes the R5C is now my current main camera. Very happy with it so far. However I have an S5 as backup just because I just love the image from Panasonics S series.
get a mike, great content
just because you dont need AF
Af sucks
