Fantastic. I assume they learned their lesson with the S5II.

Phew! I was worried about that!

When you watch Gordon Laings Video, you can see the live composite mode in the manu.
I once had an online photographer friend who invited me there but I'd rather go in the summer. I believe it's the most northern university town in the world and the only one inside the arctic circle.
I'm no longer into travelling, haven't been on a plane since 2016 and that was a photography trip in Tenerife including staying in the Parador hotel up in the volcano crater which is highly recommended for astro and well just being there. The summit and views are literally awesome

After watching a view initial reviews I think the S1RII is a great camera. But there is still some room for improvements. For example, I would find some in between frame rates in burst between 10 fps mechanical and 40 fps electronic shutter handy. Especially because the buffer doesn't last long. A 20 fps option would be very useful and easy to implement via software update. Maybe someone with contacts to Panasonic (@Richard Wong ) could tell them.
I imagine they'll bring such out along with continued AF improvements along with S5ii and later G series M43 cameras that use this L2 processor.
30fps in S5ii is rather mental also, 20fps or others could be nice options in that camera also.
This will come in a future update according to one of the youtube reviews. 20fps.

That's fantastic. Frankly, the buffer gets overrun far too quickly at 40 fps. And, yes, on average, I wouldn't want that many images.

I agree. There are lots of potential improvements.
I understand there will be firmware updates coming soon but I do not know what is included apart from 8.1k open gate and HDMI Prores/BRAW raw.
I've already asked them if it's technically possible to do 15/20fps burst speed as 40fps is way too fast for most people. They told me they are aware of people requesting this.
Now while it sounds like easy, I myself as a software engineer know we shouldn't just assume it is "easy". What people say it's a "simple one-line change" usually causes us lots of headaches when we make the changes.

Thank you guys! and thanks for the donation dirk.
But seriously it's ok no need to donate, just give the video a like or leave a comment or play the video in the background to help the algorithm is more than enough haha
Just watched Gordon Laings review.
The uncropped electronic stabilisation is very impressive, I'd like that in the next S5ii update. And the ability to use your phone as a monitor tethered via cable as opposed to wifi version is very useful, that could somewhat compensate for the more functional screen the S5ii doesn't have, only flippy.
Gordo shows the rolling shutter too, it looks similar or maybe just marginally better than S5ii from memory. I was kind of surprised at this one but it seems that stacking/global is still required, I was probably expecting too much.
ProRes internal up to 1.6Gb/s so your 320GB CF card lasts for 3m 20sec
I do like the rear screen a lot after seeing it in detail, I'd definitely swap the flippy for that and hoping next firmware brings it also.

He also showed warping in stills mode, again due to the sensor readout speed & ES.
So yes, as others have stated, the S1RII is not *quite* a do-it-all camera like an a1II or a Z8, due to the lack of a stacked sensor.
I'm a little put-off by this. I've been living with an camera (S1R) that did not measure up for stills of moving subjects for so long, I'm reluctant to buy a new camera that still falls short. Of course, the S1RII is *far* better than the S1R for action photography, but psychologically, I'm just not sure I can pull the trigger. Once bitten, I suppose. I'd be happy to spend the additional $500 or whatever to get the stacked sensor. Although I would never pay Sony a1II prices.
Probably will buy it in the end, but yes, I'm conflicted.
