The Panasonic LUMIX S1H Mirrorless Digital Camera (Body Only) is a full-frame mirrorless camera, designed for film production. The camera is scaled to a hand-held design, without compromising the professional-level standards that are necessary for the art of cinematography. The LUMIX S1H offers a wide variety of recording modes, & the image quality that is necessary to meet the needs of today's creators. Its design also makes it suitable for active filming, in the field, when attached to a gimbal or drone.
The LUMIX S1H Mirrorless Digital Camera features a 24.2 Megapixel Full-Frame MOS Sensor, which offers a wide dynamic range, as well as sharp & natural expression at high sensitivity levels. It features a 1.8" status LCD to provide important information for videography, as well as photography, & a rear monitor for live viewing.
The LUMIX S1H is designed specially for recording video, & features 6K/24p & 4K HDR video, with 14+ stops of dynamic range, V-Log/V-Gamut compatibility, & an unlimited recording time in all recording modes. An HDMI port is included to view output via another monitor, & anamorphic modes are available to enhance your creative possibilities, with a variety of tools for film making. Variable frame rate, high frame rate, & time lapse functions are also featured on the LUMIX S1H. Its dual native ISO offers high sensitivity in low-light shooting scenarios, providing high quality footage.
As far as the LUMIX S1H's photo performance, its Venus Engine enables the ability to capture eight consecutive images via Body I.S. (image stabilizer), to create a 96-megapixel equivalent (12,000 x 8,000-pixel) RAW file. Its autofocus capabilities feature super-fast communication between the sensor & lens (480fps), providing high-speed & high-precision autofocus of approximately 0.08 seconds. Accurate autofocus is even possible in low-contrast scenes (ex: starlight), advancing LUMIX's low-light AF to the -6EV level. You can also shoot with 30fps burst, in 6K photo, then use the Choose & Extract mode in 18 megapixel 60fps 4K Photo freezes. HLG Photo Mode is designed to support an impressive style of enjoyment on HDR-compatible devices, featuring fine gradations of light & dark. You can fine-tune hue, saturation, highlight, shadow, sharpness, noise reduction & more (in steps of 0.5).
