[13:34 sun,24.May 2020 by Rudi Schmidts]

Actually Panasonic and Atomos had announced for tomorrow the final release for "ProRes RAW with S1H". But now the rip cord was pulled on the home stretch.

According to Panasonic, the release of RAW recording with the upcoming firmware was stopped at short notice due to "technical problems still to be solved", which were discovered during the beta tests. A new release date has not been announced and the rest of the announced firmware features are still scheduled to be released as version 2.0 tomorrow:

These are:

1st advanced video features / improved performance

- Down-converted output via HDMI

during[6K]/[5.9K]/[5.4K] video recording is available.
- In Creative Video mode, it is possible to disable starting and stopping video recording by pressing the shutter button.
- In Creative Video mode, it is possible to set[Capture Quality (My List)] from the control panel.
- The value of noise reduction in[V-Log] in Photo Style has been expanded to[-1]. It suppresses afterimages that previously occurred in some situations.
- It is possible to prevent the enlarged viewport of MF Assist (Focus Magnifier) from being output via HDMI.
- There have been cases where color tape appeared in some situations when recording 4:2:0/10-bit video. This effect has been minimized.
- There were cases where the REC RUN time code did not count up when the video was recorded on an external device via HDMI

instead of an SD Memory Card. This error has been fixed.

- To prevent improper operation, touch control is disabled for[Delete All] operation in playback mode. Only the cursor buttons can be used for the[Clear All] function.
- There have been cases where read/write errors of the video file occurred during "Segmented File Recording" or 400 Mbps recording under certain conditions, including the type of SD card used. This issue has been improved.
- Aperture
