Yes, that's true! It's with the SL2-S that the problem persists...

I would hope to know if SL2-S with Leica R-Adapter L a better choice than using the Panasonic S1H with the same adapter, when shooting R ROM lenses for videos. Thank you.

There's no better choice in this case, unless you prefer one camera over the other.

R lenses don't get any software correction on the SL, so the adapter only provides focal length for in-body stabilization (IBIS), and metadata which isn't saved in video files (as far as I know). You can set the focal length manually on the S1H, so IBIS works just as well, with one extra step required when you swap lenses.

It's all about user preference, and your project's requirements. You generally want to use a single camera type for a project because it makes colour correction easier.
