[OC] F-16 Viper Demo Team - Thunder Over Louisville Practice 2026

It's due to the limitations of most current CMOS sensor unless you get one with a global shutter. This is from a Panasonic S1ii with a rolling shutter so it reads the sensor line by line. I stabilized the video in post with Davinci Resolve (the editing program). This stabilized the overall plane, bu

Thoughts on Lumix S5iix for video vs what I currently use (Nikon Z8)

Hey there! Full time business photographer videographer here. Looks like you’re hitting the limit of using a hybrid photo camera for long form video. The Nikon Z8 is an incredible camera, but some would say it isn’t built for hour plus continuous recording, especially in a theater environment. Readi

S1Mii body drop to $2356 during the june Promotional Campaign-but still to expensive compare to its competitors

Genuinely confused as to how you could get this so wrong. The S1II and the A7V are the same price currently in the US ($2899), The R6 III is $100 cheaper, Nikon Z8 starts at $3100 used on MPB, and the A1 starts at $3400 used. At $2356, the S1ii a DEAL. Let's break this down: - Photography: all the b

Review of S1ii in a cinema environment

For a large scale professional shoot I feel that a dedicated cinema camera is definitely needed as compared to a s1ii, even the fx3 would struggle with alot of these. Hope panasonic is considering a BSIIH someday.

Over-processed image of the S5iix / S1ii ?

By all accounts you can get a more organic image by shooting Pro-Res and Raw formats, but these come with huge file sizes. H264 and H265 file sizes are so much more reasonable for so many workflows - and I have also noticed the difference going from an S1 / S1H to an S5II. Up-voting this because its

S1R II / S1 II or Sony A7V?

Switching to Lumix S1RII (or S1II) for professional photography?

Hi, first of all I'd like to point out that based on your description in your post you can't go wrong with either of these great 2nd generation LUMIX cameras. If I may I'd like to share with you why we chose the S1 II over the S1R II. We tested the S1R II for a couple of months side by side to the S

Worried about Panasonic at the International Broadcast Conference

Definitely not! Panasonic is used quite widely amongst content creators and is seen as THE value proposition. The S1H is still one of the only hybrid mirrorless cameras in the Netflix approved camera list and with the S1ii we are now getting Arri log. Let’s not also forget that the L mount alliance

My long-term LUMIX S1 ii review

Not sure if my opinion is of any value to you, but I'm a former S5II owner. I took advantage of Panasonic LUMIX's trade-in trade-up promotion, which provided me a $400 discount on the purchase of the new S series camera and I received ~$850 in value for my S5II (varies depending on condition, mine w

Old Sony Users Who Switched To Panasonic; Any Regrets?

Over the past eight years, I’ve shot professionally with Sony cameras. I’ve used the a7III, a7IV, a7R V, and the FX3. They’re solid tools, no doubt about it. When Panasonic released the original Lumix S1, I decided to try it out of curiosity. I loved a lot about the camera, but the autofocus perform
