There is still something I don't like about it, such as focus peaking have to be used with display option that show histogram and all other craps. You can't just turn it on or off.
Quote myself here to make a minor correction. Peaking can be selected with any display combination, SL2 give you 5 profile to display and each profile can be programmed with any combination such as peaking, level, histogram, zebra, shooting info, grid etc... in additional to that, you can disable any of the 5 profile to eliminate the cycle through choice.
This is by far the best implementation of display option out of any EVF based cameras I ever used. (Nikon Z was 2nd). I chose only full image with only peaking (very classic clean look) as one of display option, and another option is shooting info with level, histogram, zebra and peaking, pretty much every essential info for tripod shooting or hand hold landscape. That is it, I just cycle through these two in use.
There also problems for SL2. There is no choice decouple AF from shutter unless you choose Manual focus mode and set joystick to do AFc or AFs. (A leica way, which has always work perfectly for me) However, with panasonic S line glasses, if you set AF on lens, you can't set manual focus on SL2, if you set manual focus on lens, you can't AF anymore with joystick.
Another issue is DOF preview, I seems can't set preview with shooting aperture other than WO. Panasonic has this option.
Then, IBIS with 70-200f4 is quite poor on S1 during lens testing at infinity handhold. I still investigate: is that due to focusing error, more pixels, or IBIS or Lens OIS integration with SL2 IBIS or there is some bug in my shutter speed region (I set it at 1/125 and let AutoISO does rest and lighting was poor). or Maybe I just need use silent shutter, there is no EFC in SL2. Too many variables, I think It will cost me some time to figure it out.
It perform wonderfully with M glasses and S glasses.
Somehow, I just don't have the same confidence with its IBIS as Panasonic S1 which I think it is the best but maybe I am seeing the high pixel effect? Hopefully Gordon can chime in how it compares to S1R.
