Panasonic DMW-SFU2 Overview

Maximize the dynamic range and color output capabilities of the Panasonic Lumix DC-S1 camera with this Filmmaker Upgrade Software Key. This code unlocks a range of advanced video functions to further expand on the impressive video performance of the full-frame S1 mirrorless camera.

Once installed, the S1 will be capable of using the V-Log L gamma and V-Gamut, which offers a flat color profile and a wider, approximately 15-stop dynamic range for greater control during post-production color grading. The addition of this gamma also allows users to better match color with existing VariCam systems that feature standard V-Log, as both profiles utilize the same characteristic curve and LUT. This upgrade also enables recording 4K60 video with 4:2:2 10-bit sampling to an external recorder over HDMI, as well as internal 4K30/24 video recording with 4:2:2 10-bit sampling.

This upgrade is intended for use with NTSC-area cameras only and can only be used on one camera. It is for use with the Lumix DC-S1 only and is not compatible with the Lumix DC-S1R.

I see that Panasonic has released the DMW-SFU2 on their website however I do not see how to claim the free update. What is the process for this? I also tried the link provided in previous questions but that just takes me to the firmware update and not the upgrade software.

How is this different from the S1 firmware update v1.2?
Asked by: Ricardo
The v1.1 and v1.2 improves IS and AF performance of the camera. The v1.2 adds an Activate function for "Upgrade Software Key DMW-SFU2". "Upgrade Software Key DMW-SFU2" is a separate firmware ugrade which adds V-Log for enhanced video color grading.
