Newly Designed Full-frame Sensor with Dual Native ISO Technology
The newly designed 24.2-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor of the S1H features Dual Native ISO technology. The image sensor can leverage a dual-base ISO setting, resulting in minimized noise and outstanding image quality from low to high sensitivity. This feature teams up with the Venus Engine to deliver maximum ISO 51200 / Extended ISO 204800 for minimal noise at high sensitivity and beautiful expression of dark areas in the frame. Whenever professional-level low-light shooting is required, theS1H is ready for action.
Wide Range of Recording Formats to Support Every Type of Shoot
With its full range of recording modes, the S1H has every industry covered, from cinema to TV broadcasting. In addition to C4K/4K 60p/50p* 4:2:0 10-bit and C4K/4K 30p/25p/24p 4:2:2 10-bit, the camera newly offers 6K/24p 4:2:0 10-bit in 3:2 and 5.9K 30p/25p/24p 4:2:0 10-bit in 16:9. C4K/4K 30p/25p/24p 4:2:2 10-bit video is recordable in-camera. When set for 10-bit recording, the camera delivers 4:2:2 10-bit HDMI output, making possible high-image-quality capture with an external recorder.
*In Super 35mm and PIXEL/PIXEL settings.
V-Log/V-Gamut with 14+ Stops of Dynamic Range
Offering compatibility with Cinema VariCam Look, 14+ stops of dynamic range, and a very wide color spectrum, V-Log and V-Gamut come preinstalled. Users will enjoy impressively accurate color reproduction, subtle gradations from dark areas to highlights, and precise control of color data in post-production. The end result is more creative and satisfying color expression. Moreover, footage shot with the S1H can be seamlessly edited with footage shot with VariCam. As a further convenient touch, the LUT in use is displayed on the camera monitor.
First Fan Ever in a Full-frame DSLM Camera* Supports Unlimited Video Recording
For the first time ever in a full-frame DSLM camera,* the S1H incorporates a fan as standard equipment — a feature typically found only on professional cameras. The fan is part of a newly developed heat-dispersing structure that supports unlimited video recording. The dust- and splash-resistant design, low vibrations for minimal effect on the image stabilization system, and ultra-quiet performance are other features that complement this new structure.
*Among full-frame digital single-lens mirrorless cameras as of August 27, 2019.
Newly Developed Tilt and Free-Angle Rear Monitor
The newly developed tilt and free-angle rear monitor with large 3.2-inch, 2.33-million-dot leverages the convenience of both a tilt monitor and a free-angle monitor. Even with an HDMI or USB cable attached to the camera, the monitor can move freely. As a result, it is possible to use an HDMI monitor or external recorder while freely checking the camera monitor. Moreover, the large status LCD presents optimized information about both still photographs and videos, providing easy access to time codes, the audio level meter, and more.
