This year is likely the year that I have to buy a real camera, so I have been watching reviews and trying to assess my likely needs. It's looking like it's going to be the #Lumix #S1Rii.

That led me to @stalman 's video, which shows you how to add film looks in camera, which is a feature I thought was really cool from the Fujifilm X100VI:

Lumix: Film Emulation Straight Out of Camera

@stalman The next thing I was wondering, is has anyone made #LUTs to achieve the #Leica (or any other) look using this method?

And indeed someone has:

@samvarma @stalman I owned the S1Rii for a while and it’s a wonderful camera.

One thing I’d say though is that it’s quite heavy and on the bigger side for a mirrorless camera.

I bought it thinking realtime LUTs would be fire but ended up really enjoying the colours straight out of camera. I think the colour science on this thing is massively underrated.

All that said I would the camera and went back to Sony. I just found the camera to inconsistent.

@opalfroot @stalman Thanks for chiming in! I'm also kind of thinking that maybe the Lumix S9 makes sense as a starter, with thought of eventually having that as a B cam.
