Panasonic S1H Best Tips and Tricks!

The Everyday Dad:

We’ve been using the Panasonic S1H for a good while now and its time to talk about what are my favorite tips and tricks for using this beast of a camera.
So what are those tips and tricks?!

First Look: Panasonic Lumix S Pro 24-70mm f/2.8 Review

Precision Camera:

The Lumix 24-70mm f/2.8 feels like the missing puzzle piece that we have all been waiting for in the L-mount line up. It’s constant aperture, fast auto-focus and sharp images make it a must-have for any pro shooting on the Lumix S1 Series cameras, the Leica SL system or on a Sigma FP. We went out with Lumix Ambassador, Todd White and got to see it in action on a real-life client shoot.

Sigma says Foveon L-mount camera is not coming in 2020 and they have to restart evrything :(

Very bad news guys: Sigma announced they have to completely estart the Foveon L-mount camera project. This means we will not get the camera in 2020 and likely not in 2021/2022 neither 🙁

Here is the Press text:

Development status of the full-frame Foveon sensor camera

Dear Customers,

Thank you for being a valued customer.

At Photokina in September 2018, SIGMA announced the development of an L-mount mirrorless camera equipped with a full-frame Foveon sensor. Then, at CP+2019, we shared our plan to release the camera in 2020 and have worked diligently on the development to meet our commitment.

As a result of careful and rigorous testing based on the latest development information, however, it has become clear that the launch of such a camera would be infeasible within this year. Still at this point, we cannot say for certain when the full-frame Foveon X3 sensor will be put into mass production.

In light of current development progress, we are not in a position to offer any specific release plan at present. We have therefore decided that we should start over the project with a clean slate, putting the production plan for this new camera back to the drawing board and going back to the development of sensor technologies.

Since the earlier announcements, your excitement with the launch of a “full-frame Foveon” has been a tremendous source of inspiration and encouragement for us. Everyone involved in the project has pulled out all the stops to make it a reality. I would like to express my deepest apologies for failing to meet your expectations and having to share this disappointing news.

I would like to emphasize that Foveon sensors are in a class of their own and that they are part of the identity of SIGMA cameras that embodies our ideals and philosophies. We are determined to continue dedicating ourselves to technology development to bring better image sensors to life.

I would like to once again express my sincerest gratitude to our valued customers for the strong support you have offered to us. On behalf of all SIGMA employees, I commit myself to you that we continue striving to live up to your expectation and prove that we are worthy of your trust.

I truly appreciate your patience and understanding.

Warmest regards,

Kazuto Yamaki
Chief Executive Officer
SIGMA Corporation
