Could be great. The biggest plus for me would be improved low light performance.

Just got a cheap GH5 off ebay. $640 shipped, but the dude has no battery and wasn't sure if it works lol. Wish me luck.

It would be nice to have LOG if you ever wanted to shoot non RAW for a project that didn't require it.

I'd probably go with the S35 version that has the M43 mount over the S1H or F6

shoot I forgot, nevermind what do you mean about manual focus? Yeah its still definitely noticeable.

looks really grainy too.

Try 4k 60p if you really want to get the action. Flog will give you the most dynamic range. If you are gonna do a lot of color grading the Ninja V would be good to get that 4k 60p 10 bit. But 8 bit is honestly fine as well.

Yeah the Flat profile is quite good. As long as you expose decently and get decent white balance you'll have no issues. Honestly I'd just stick to the recorder you have. Looks similar to the Zoom H1 which is a great little recorder. Nothing really wrong with 3.5mm jacks. You could get a preamp if you want to record sound right to your camera.

The 1080p 120 on the Zcam seems to blow the S1H's away.

Not sure if this has been posted, but looks like its real easy to mount it on the Crane 2. These are going for $300 now with follow focus.

If you have the right gimbal its no issue. The camera is on the bulky side but its not heavy. Definitely a different image than the C200, but it can hold its own against a C200 imo

You could always convert the Prores RAW back to regular prores and still see benefits, especially if you do 444, but of course that means huge files sizes.

Its surprising how thin the Atomos recorders are, at least the newer ones (beyond Atomos 2). Still you need big batteries for them. Not having the ability to swap batteries on a phone always made me not want to use one. You could use one of those phone battery cases though.

If there is no movement in the frame sharpness will be the same at 1/50 or 1/1000 but I am sure you know that. The Alexa cameras have an OPLF filter which makes them softer. I don't think RED do. A movie like Guardians of the Galaxy shot on 8k RED doesn't look soft though. You can soften footage in post though or use filters over your glass like the pro mist. Alexas have a very low rolling shutter like 6ms or something and I assume the new RED cameras do as well. Probably contributes to better motion along with no in camera sharpening. Though personally I haven't noticed any odd motion on my Fuji cameras. Maybe because I am accustomed to shooting with Modern SLR's from the GH2, GH4, GH5, XT20 and now XT3-XT30

You saying films nowadays looking jarring in a bad way? Most films are shot at 4k or higher resolution now.

Yeah I used it on a three day shoot last week. Battery life wasn't that big a deal. Worked great with a monopod and minimal rigging. For handheld a monitor is necessary, we used the small HD and one of these little swivel mounts. Worked great.

I am pretty sure the XT3 and XT30 has the same rolling shutter. Same sensor and processor. I could be wrong of course.

Would be interesting to see the talking head comparisons with sharpening all the way down on all the cameras. Standard PP doesn't really show what any of the cameras are capable of. Either way there is no doubt about it the S1H is a fantastic camera, at least once they update the firmware like on the S1. The S1 will probably be my next camera purchase.

I don't notice anything jittery in that video, just high shutter speed and (probably 60p as well?). Hard to notice things without a comparison.

Those are my favorite kind ? That is pretty disappointing for a $4000 camera tho, but hey trade offs to everything I guess.

If you use resolve I think the zraw workflow is more involved. You don't have to deal with the crop factor though.

I really have never got the motion cadence thing so I would be interested to see a comparison just out of curiosity. Not that you have the time but would be cool to see. Also would be interested to know if it is more to your liking shoot 24p at 30-40 shutter. Another fellow on here just posted how he shoots 1/40 1/30 shutter a lot on his GH5 which gives it a more film look, in his eyes at least.

I think you'll do fine.

Image holds more detail with higher color depth. Less prone to banding and you can push the image more in post. The advantage Canon has in terms of skin tones is better auto WB imo. Fuji auto white balance isn't very good, best to stick to manual. If you record externally on the Canon and get the 10 bit 4k its really nice, but its 1.7 crop and has terrible rolling shutter.

For me 120p goes out the window if the lighting situation is tricky as I've found you usually get a lot more noise if under exposed. But yeah that can be a tough call.
