About Panasonic DC-S1H
PRO REVIEW by Nick Dabas, Director of Photography

The custom functions on the camera I think are the best way to set it up to your liking. Panasonic really thought about everything they put into this camera. "

LUMIX S1H
Responding to the demanding requirements of photographers, videographers, and cinematographers today, the full-frame LUMIX S1H mirrorless camera offers an outstanding combination of image quality, functionality, and usability.
4K HDR Video
HDR modes in HLG format: 4K HEVC (HLG) video mode and Photo Style “Like2100.” On HDR devices, you'll view amazing dynamic range and extremely fine gradations of light and dark.
Anamorphic Recording
4K 4:3, 6K full-frame 3:2, DCI-4K, and more. Post-production from anamorphic lenses makes Cinemascope possible. An Anamorphic Desqueeze Display function displays Cinemascope-size video at 1.3x, 1.33x, 1.5x, 1.8x, and 2.0x.
VFR (Variable Frame Rate)
Support for overcranking and undercranking with access to 2.5x slow in C4K/4K and 7.5x super-slow* in FHD. Create emotional slow-motion footage of up to 30x normal speed (30p/2 fps).
HFR (High Frame Rate)
HFR recording available with audio and autofocus: 119.88p or 47.95p (59.94Hz), 100.00p (50.00Hz), and 48.00p (24.00Hz). In post-production, the frame rate can be changed for slow-motion video.
Time-Lapse Video with 4K 60p/50p
In-body interval capture creates time-lapse video capable of 4K 60p/50p with smooth exposure transition. Shoot photos with V-Log for workflow flexibility or Like709 without color correction later.

Rec.709 gamma curve is utilized in commercial broadcasting. Knee adjustment avoids blown-out highlights, enabling the use of unedited footage in broadcast for quick, efficient post-production work.

The video frame marker is useful when vertical/horizontal cropping in post-production is anticipated. Displayable aspect ratio frames include 2.39:1, 2.35:1, 1:1, and 4:5 with a total of 8 patterns.
Display Modes to Support Videography
A familiar control panel can be displayed similar to that of a professional cinema camera with 3 display options for Shutter Speed and Gain (Sensitivity): Sec/ISO, Angle/ISO, or Sec/dB.
System Frequency
To support global video production, three different system frequencies can be selected: 59.94Hz (NTSC), 50.00Hz (PAL), or 24.00Hz (CINEMA).
Filtering / My List of Rec Quality
Frame rate, resolution, codec, etc. can be specified and represented in the display. Anamorphic, VFR and HFR can be displayed*. My List saves frequently used recording modes for quick access.
*VFR:Variable Frame Rate, HFR: High Frame Rate
Segment File Recording / Loop Recording
Segment File Recording records video as 1-minute segments, with preventing the loss of whole data. Loop Recording deletes old data while recording without worrying about card capacity.
Luminance Level for 10-bit
For 8-bit, 0-255 / 16-235 / 16-255 are selectable. For 10-bit, 0-1023 / 64-940 / 64-1023 are selectable.
Luminance Spot Meter
A subject can be selected with the frame and its luminance displayed as a percentage. When recording in V-Log, the camera displays luminance in stops.
WFM / Vectorscope
Luminance, or chroma color balance can be displayed during recording.
Zebra Pattern
As a new feature, the LUMIX S1H can display two zebra patterns at once, allowing the user to set a luminance range. This function can be used to warn the user of blown-out highlights.
Master Pedestal Level
The standard black level for the video can be adjusted.
Synchro Scan
This function fine-tunes the shutter speed to minimize the flickering of fluorescent lights, televisions, computer monitors, etc.
1.8-inch High-Resolution Status LCD
The newly developed high-resolution 1.8-inch status LCD presents optimal information for still photography or videography. Time code and audio information can be customized with switchable black or white backgrounds.
5.76-million-dot Resolution Real View Finder
The large Real View Finder boasts outstanding resolution of 5.76 million dots. The responsive OLED display offers an extremely low 0.005-second minimum lag time and an ultra-high 120 fps refresh rate.
Night Mode
When shooting dark scenes like starry skies, this mode suppresses the stimulation of eyes that have become accustomed to the dark. The LVF and rear monitor can be set separately.
Sound Rec Gain Level
Either STANDARD or LOW may be selected. LOW reduces gain level in loud environments (-12 dB).
Sound Rec Level Adjustment
The sound input level can be adjusted in 32 levels (-18 dB to +12 dB or mute).
Live View Boost
The display is brightened by lowering the frame rate and increasing the gain. This lets you shoot while framing, even in extremely dark situations.
Button Illumination
The buttons are illuminated to enable accurate operation in the dark.
8-direction Joystick
The joystick moves freely in eight directions, allowing you to intuitively select the focus area with just your thumb.
Control Customization
All buttons, dials, and cursors are fully customizable, allowing users to create a personalized control system.
HDMI Type A and HDMI Cable Lock Holder
A versatile and durable HDMI Type A terminal is provided. A bundled cable lock holder also prevents unplugging problems on location.
TC IN/OUT / Bundled BNC Conversion Cable
With the bundled BNC conversion cable, users can synchronize the time code of the LUMIX S1H with that of an external device.
Φ 3,5mm MIC Jack and Headphone Jack
