3 power source options

For your convenience in various situations, three power source options are offered. An AC adapter is included for studio shoots and outdoor sets where the camera is set up on an ongoing basis. The battery pack (sold separately*) facilitates handheld shooting, drone shooting, and other kinds of mobile shooting. And when multiple cameras are controlled remotely, power can be stably supplied via Ethernet cable and PoE+.

*Battery Pack: AG-VBR59/89/118. Battery Charger: AG-BRD50. Max. 11800mAh (AG-VBR118) can be used for approximately 12 hours.

Focus ring control (LINEAR/NONLINEAR)

If used in combination with the LUMIX S Series lens, you can control the focus ring according to your feel. Select between NONLINEAR, in which acceleration is applied according to the rotation speed, and LINEAR, which enables focusing with a fixed amount according to the rotation angle. Because the rotation angle can be set with LINEAR, intuitive and accurate focusing is possible in the same way as the equipment you are used to.

Wi-Fi® / Bluetooth® / LUMIX Sync App

Installing the Panasonic LUMIX Sync Android or iOS app on a smartphone or tablet, you can connect to the BS1H via Wi-Fi® or Bluetooth® v4.2 (Low Energy) to monitor images or remotely control the camera. It’s also possible to copy settings from one camera to another using the LUMIX Sync app*, making multiple-camera control simpler.

*Copying must done between cameras of the same model.
