![]() ![]() This mirrorless camera is big, heavy and robust (especially when equipped with the new 24-105mm f/4 L lens), so you better think of it as if you are carrying a DSLR, but in this particular case, this is NOT a bad thing, as the camera felt very balanced in my hands and I could work with it for exceptionally long periods of time. Panasonic S1 top view – Large, robust, comfortable to hold Panasonic LUMIX S1 – First Impression and HandlingĪs a reviewer, I get to use many of the new cameras out there and leaving specifications aside, there are always those cameras that simply feel more comfortable in the hand – the Panasonic LUMIX S1 falls into this category. 4K UHD 50/60p, 10-bit 4:2:2 external recording via HDMI with APS-C crop.4K UHD up to 30p, 10-bit 4:2:2 internal recording (At 150Mbps).150fps and 180fps in HD mode are cropped) Various High Frame Rate recording options in 4K and HD (No control on any of the recording parameters like shutter speed and ISO, no autofocus, no sound.4K 50/60p, 4:2:0 8-bit, cropped to APS-C, internal recording limited to 29:59 min.4K HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma) internal video recording, HEVC codec in 10-bit 72Mbps.First, let’s have a quick recap in regards to its video specifications. I understand why the qualifier was given, to tamp down expectations in the face of uncertainty.While getting to know the new Panasonic S1 in Barcelona was nice, I felt that there is much more to explore about it and have therefore decided to dedicate some extra time and review the camera, although it is still in a pre-production stage. I have been recently researching an optical addendum to that, and will be publishing the details a bit down the road. There are post settings to simulate the OLPF texture, as measured in side-by-side. I supplied raw side-by-side footage from both cameras for everyone to confirm the match: The actual core conversion, which Cameron does not show in the video, is a technical transform to a measured LogC (through the lens). Granted 1) the footage was shot under reference sun or halogen lighting 2) with a neutral WB 3) within the limited DR of the GH5, GHa really will make the GH5 (not the S) look *exactly* like the Arri Alexa at identical settings, with the same lens I love that you got around to Emotive Color. Here is a response I gave on Reddit sometime back: Over the past year, the response has been so positive, but there has been a group that doesn't actually look into what it is I'm doing, because of the prevailing reputation of look-up tables. I hope you'll take a closer look with this one." The LUT format is a simple, elegant tool that may be used to achieve a thing of beauty, or most often, blunder. Raw footage side-by-sides are available for anyone to confirm, for themselves, the extent of the color science match. It is not an instant grade, a notion which runs counter to the ethos of the project (as in the PDF, at minimum the luma of each shot must be placed)Īdditionally, the project has involved discovering and correcting for NLE distortions of formats and color grading tools (especially PPro), measuring and standardizing OLPF texture emulation, and developing a starting color base that rivals quality colorist pipelines (and emphasizes correct cinema luma placement). One could think of it as an epic color chart match, of one color science to another cherished color science (well beyond a Resolve color chart match), with special provisions for rolloff. Coded a custom color engine to interpolate between those ~55K data points Bought an actual Alexa Classic to iterate with (really) Built my own sample system that measures ~27K color points for each camera Smoothness (silk gradients, not a single artifact) Absolute accuracy to the Alexa's actual response (not just LogC format params), at every point in the color space Since April of last year, I have continuously refined the model to achieve two things: something, not in any way connected to the cinema screen. I understand LUTs have a poor reputation, appropriately so, because they have often been used to achieve lackluster color, not geared for professional purpose (artifacts, garish saturation, weird hues).
