96MP handheld on the s5iix. This camera is truly OP

It is impressive how Panasonic can do this handheld, even on the S1R II, and everyone else bar Olympus/OM System can't even merge tripod pixel shift photos in-camera.

S1R owners in 2026, how’s it holding up?

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

Cameras with Sony Sensors

From what I understand, the 24mp (SL, Q1, M10, M240) and the 61mp (Q3, Q343, SL3, M11) are the same as the sensors in the A7 series. I don't know about the SL2S or the TL or the CL. The Q2 and SL2 are using something developed in collaboration with Panasonic (it's in the S1R too) The M10r has a one

What changes would you make if there was ever an S9 II?

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

I feel reluctant to buy more L mount glass

The honest answer is…the z8 and z9 are better cameras for the wildlife purpose. Albeit they are very large. My S5ii and Sigma 150-600 came to around 2.5k..that’s less than one Nikon Z8. So I’d expect it to be the better camera. The sigma 150-600 is a nice lens, the autofocus is slow though. The zoom

Camera for scanning hi-res 120

So I’ve scanned 120 with three cameras, a Panasonic S5II, a Sigma FP L (same sensor as A7RV), and a Leica SL2. If I’m brutally honest with you, the A7RV isn’t overkill..in fact…it is not enough to properly reproduce grain for massive prints. You want a Lumix S1R in high-res mode. (It is the same as

1100 dollars Zeiss Lens worth it?

I swear by these Zeiss ZE lenses, I have a good set with: 15mm, 21mm, 35mm, 50mm Planar 1.4, 50mm Makro-Planar and 100mm which are by far the best ones of the range. These haven’t been updated on the Milvus range (apart from 50mm 1.4 and 85mm 1.4). I have the Sigma adapter and I use it with Panasoni

Switching to Lumix S1RII (or S1II) for professional photography?

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

Help me decide between SL3-P or keeping my M11

The SL3-P will lose you money quickly, the M11 won't. Also the M11 fills a gap - the SL3-P will not. Plus it basically is a glorified rebranded Panasonic S1R II. I'd keep the M11 or if you really need another L-Mount Body for your work, rather get a S1R II and spend the extra cash you have left over

A7V released - 33MP partially stacked, 7.5 stop IBIS, new processor, $2900 USD - available for preorder

Good points. On the one hand, it's like they're making these cameras for YouTubers who also do photography, and that's obviously a tiny market. On the other hand, many people try to get into that world, and it's not too hard to make a good hybrid these days. That said, I agree that the specialty vid
