Sentiment Score 72%The Panasonic Lumix S1H is a full-frame mirrorless camera aimed at professional videographers and cinematographers and boasting 6K video at 24p. Like the Lumix GH5S before it, it is unashamedly aimed at pro video. A 4:3 Anamorphic mode is also available for use with anamorphic lenses, and the flat V-Log profile is included as standard, allowing over 14 stops of dynamic range. All formats can be recorded internally for unlimited times and Panasonic has beefed-up the body a little to better manage heat.

Pros
- 6K video at 24p
- 4:3 Anamorphic mode is included as standard, allowing over 14 stops of dynamic range
- 5.9k RAW external recording to an Atomos Ninja V which encodes it in the Apple ProRes RAW format
Cons
- L-mount is a partnership between Leica, Panasonic and Sigma to develop cameras and lenses based on Leica’s existing L-mount
digitaltrends[2]
Sentiment Score 71%The Lumix S1H has a narrowly defined target customer in the video professional. Panasonic's unique focusing system simply can't keep pace with the phase-detection systems of Sony and Canon. Even after factoring in the cost of an external recorder, starting at about $600, it's a bargain.

Pros
- Full 5.9K RAW video output
- Compact, lightweight design
- Excellent battery life
Cons
- No 4K/60 support
- Autofocus can lag behind Sony and Canon
techradar[3]
Sentiment Score 82%Panasonic Lumix S1H is the latest in the S series of mirrorless cameras. It supports Panasonic's V-Log mode and 4:2:2 10-bit recording for a cheaper price. Video quality is almost flawless, with 14 stops of dynamic range when shooting V-log. But autofocus performance slows down in low-light situations, with both stills and video.

Pros
- Excellent image quality
- V-Log mode and 4:2:2 10-bit recording
- Excellent battery life
Cons
- No internal viewfinder
- Limited image stabilization
