Panasonic EVA1 and S1 Indoor Matching Test

This is a simple test, shot indoors, with both the Panasonic EVA1 cinema camera (that I own) and the Panasonic S1 mirrorless camera (that I have on loan). The idea was to see how well they could match each other in post. The S1 had firmware version 1.1 with the 10-bit 4k Long GOP codec and v-log picture profile added. I therefore shot both cameras in 10-bit 4K with the v-log picture profile. To get a similar perspective on both (the EVA1 having a super-35 cropped sensor and the S1 a full-frame sensor), I used the Canon 24mm f2.8 IS lens on the EVA1, and the Canon 35mm f2 IS lens on the S1, they were two lenses that I owned that I felt would be close in their characteristics. I initially performed a white balance reading, using a grey card, with the EVA1, before I added any additional lighting. This gave me a reading of 4800k. So I set both cameras on that same colour temperature. I then added one light (a Pixapro LED100B MKIII bi-colour spot light with a large softbox) and set the colour temperature of that light also to 4800k. In post I added the official Panasonic V-log-to-Rec709 LUT to the shots from both cameras. I chose to use the EVA1 as the base to match the S1’s image to. It was obvious that the S1 had a different overall colour tint/temp to the overall image compared to the EVA1 (more blue in particular) when set at the same manual white balance colour temperature. I later did a quick test (not in this video) where I performed a separate white balance reading on the S1 of its own (using a grey card rather than just manually dial in the same temperature that the EVA1 had read) and this resulted in a closer match. So that would be my preferred option in future. Having said that, other than the colour temperature difference, the image from both I felt was very similar, and it only needed a few tweaks in Premiere to match them pretty close to each other. I'd be happy running these two cameras together on my corporate shoots.
