LUMIX S1R

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

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

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

Over the past eight years, I’ve shot professionally with Sony cameras. I’ve used the a7III, a7IV, a7R V, and the FX3. They’re solid tools, no doubt about it. When Panasonic released the original Lumix S1, I decided to try it out of curiosity. I loved a lot about the camera, but the autofocus perform

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

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

I’m seriously considering one of these. I don’t need PDAF nor fancy video specs/features as I just still subjects like landscapes, architecture, and urban landscapes. So I just need a good full frame camera with great colors and a simple design for a solid price. Being a Lumix user already, the orig

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 use the S1R for wildlife photography and the autofocus is fine. I've never used it for sports photography tho. But if I can nail focus on birds in flight I think it will be fine. I think the autofocus on the S1 and S1R is made out to be worse than it is. It's definitely not amazing, but it's far f

I think they confused this product with Kipons expander. This is a focal reducer, the image circle reduces to cover a smaller sensor. Some cameras for video have better performance using a smaller portion of sensor, such as not line skipping, higher frame rates, less latency, or having better compre
