LUMIX S1R

Great video article and real pictures that back up your statement. I'd say this article is more valid than most affiliate so called gear reviewers out there who didn't even shoot any real events, maybe at best a couple hundred shots in the local park. To answer your question, I am not sure why that

Having owned the S1R and now the S1Rii, the original was a much nicer built camera, with great design touches, I much prefer it from a handling perspective. (I miss the top screen!!) But the S1R’s autofocus is pretty crap, if you’re doing static portraits and landscape work it’s fine but good luck d

First I would like to see an evf, better quality rear dial, a mechanical shutter, and a high resolution version. Maybe use the sensor from the Leica SL3 or the Lumix S1R II. For really sunny climates an evf is just better. It is extremely difficult to take pictures in the bright sunlight here in the

Hi, first of all I'd like to point out that based on your description in your post you can't go wrong with either of these great 2nd generation LUMIX cameras. If I may I'd like to share with you why we chose the S1 II over the S1R II. We tested the S1R II for a couple of months side by side to the S

I actually did this a while back and if you can find a good deal on the S1R then I’d say go for it! It’ll make your S5ii feel like a toy though, it’s the best built Lumix camera I’ve ever felt and it’s so bloody comfortable in hand. It’s got so many nice features, Top LCD, backlit buttons, CFExpress

I think Andrew went from healthy scepticism to bitter dommerism some time ago. He seems to think of himself as some sort of a scorned LUMIX fan. As for the substance of his blog piece - LPS has been phased out for years in Europe so no, it's not an unusual move. can you imagine Nikon ending NPS or C

I was all in on M43, and still want to be, but picked up a clearance s1r and s5 and thought - FF low light is going to be better for photos and I can get into a little bit of portrait work with just a few focal lengths. I never really thought I'd want to get into FF video file sizes, lens sizes, slo

You are welcome! Yes, the things you may have to consider is the slower sensor in the S1R II, possible rolling shutter issues at fast action, slower AF, less FPS and a weaker buffer during action etc.... On the other hand the slightly inferior cropping possibilites with the S1 II may not be a real i

This is a very generell question.I think Lumix cameras are just as good as most others for stills. If you look at specific details, Lumix has a very good stabilization and the best HighRes modes. Others are better equipped for high speed sports and nature with very long and fast lenses.I think Lumix

So I've heard a lot about these flash issues and they've made me reconsider staying with Lumix when I purchase my next camera just for flexibility's sake, but in my ACTUAL experience I have had no issues, and whether it will matter for you or not depends heavily on the kind of work you do. You did s
