I use V30 as well with no problems in 4k 60p, 4k 24p, and 6k hevc.

That's awesome. I love those lenses. They were such a perfect size when I used to shoot on the eos-m. I still have a NOS 50mm 2.8 in its box in my closet. Are you shooting the short for someone else, or is this a personal project? You're shooting with an E-M10ii now, right? I started shooting stills on film recently and have a fondness for old rangefinders, especially the ones from the 70s with the built in lenses... Minolta Hi-Matic, Canonet, Olympus XA. Inevitably I'll want to move onto a hybrid stills/video camera. Size is more important to me than anything else, so I am looking at Olympus and Fuji. My friend has an E-M10ii and a GH5, and he did a shoot a couple months ago using both cameras and I went back and forth between the two and surprisingly, or not, the Olympus just looked better. So right now it's between the E-M5iii and the X-T4. Anyway, the point is that there is something special about these small cameras. The GX85 was a ton of fun to shoot with. The Samyang 12mm t/2.2 balanced perfectly on that camera and due to the 4K crop I was able to use some of my c-mount lenses. I love Full Frame and someone will have to pry my 5D3 from my cold, dead hands, but it is big and not particularly stealthy. So it's cool to see that some people are still shooting on small cameras.

Are you looking at the non L version? Admittedly I've never used it but from all accounts it isn't that great of a lens. I'd go with the 1.4 for a 1/4 the price. As you may remember, I also have the 1.2 L that I had modified to EF mount, iris de-clicked, etc... and I think that is one of the best lenses I've ever used. However, with the prices the way they are, I am having a hard time justifying its existence in my bag. I've been looking at some footage lately between the two lenses and although the 1.2 L is definitively a better lens, the 1.4 gets you most of the way there. 1.4 1.2 L I have a few side by sides I'll post later when I'm on my computer.

Out of all the modern lenses I've owned, this one was my favorite. One of the best things about the M43 format is the native lens selection and the easy adaptability of old stuff. Looks like you have plenty to play around with! I would recommend trying the old Pentax Auto110 lenses for your GM1, as that was truly a lot of fun for me when I had it. My avatar here is the GM1 with that 24mm lens on it. Not sure if you've seen it, but here's a link to a doc my wife and I made after the Japan one, the main lenses for this film were the fast Voightlander manual primes:

Thanks! On the S1H for 400Mbit ALL-I I think V90 is basically a necessity. But I think the 6K HEVC is half the bitrate so I was hoping to cheap out a bit since I only have an S1...

I'd suggest keeping things easy and just using proxies. Also, since proxies are low data and built for editing, I've found it's perfectly fine to use 'em off really slow (and cheap) HD's. Win-win. But if you got money to burn, buy the latest and greatest hardware.
