Switching to Lumix S1RII (or S1II) for professional photography?
I sold all my Sony gear and switched to the S1R2 The ergonomics are better Image stabilization is best in class Image quality has some magic Hybrid zoom for video is insane, giving you a lot of versatility with lenses and the s1RII It's a true Photo /Video powerhouse, don't let the "rolling shutter"

From s5iiX to S1Rii, RAW File examples.
I shoot it and really like it. I used it with elinchrom elb 400 and 500 without problems, the files look great. Af is snappy and reliable, better than the s5ii. I made a post with examples, I’ll add the link. https://www.reddit.com/r/Lumix/comments/1n7nymz/the_lumix_s1rii_my_experience_after_2_months/

Switching to Lumix S1RII (or S1II) for professional photography?
I love the S1RII it was my first flagship lumix camera I came from the S9 and made the full switch. Anyways after using the S1RII for about 4 months now I can say this. First the AF in lowlight is not the best I found my self missing focus on shots. After messing with the AF sensitivity settings it

Is now a good time to buy a Panasonic Lumix S1RII for landscape and wildlife photography?
Lumix s1Rii is far better than Nikon z7 and canon r5 mark I in every single aspect. Including AF.

How are you doing with the flash on the s5ii?
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

Colors and Image of the S1II compared to S1H, S1R2 and S5II
I think the S1RII has more lovely colors. However, both the Z8 and Z6III have nicer skin tones (at least when shooting in Prores Raw N-log). You can't get the perfect camera sadly. By exemple, the Z8 is big and the photos from this camera are not as sharp as the S1RII, I don't know why. Same for the

BMCC6K vs Lumix S1Rii 8k BRAW image?
I have a Pyxis 6K and a S1II (not S1RII). The OLPF really does make the difference. Helps take the edge off the 6K sensor and moire is quite noticeable on the Lumix cameras. S1II / S1RII footage is oversharpen, even the “raw” is quite sharp (but better than H.264). The theory is that Panasonic neede

Is it possible to go under $2400 during summer? (s1r2)
I can't speak on behalf of the gh6 but it is literally night and day between the S1RI and S1RII. Like even the jump from the S5 to the S5II was quite dramatic. I do agree though that sometimes if you're not very insistent on the AF then it tends to be just slightly off, even with the Mark 2s. But th

Canon to Lumix s1rii anyone? How are the colors!
I'm currently using the S1RII and the colors are very, very good. It's like some kind of secret magic sauce as I'd argue the colors are better than the S1II. And I don't think it's just because the sensor is higher MP. As for those providing AF comparisons, but from the S5II, it's not quite the same

Lumix S5ii + Rokinon 35-150 f2-2.8 (ambient light)
I use that lens with my Lumix S1RII since it came out. Beautifull colors, very good AF and nice bokeh. Besidesif that you have 4 lenses (focal distance) in one - 35mm, 50mm, 85-100mm and 150mm. Different styles. I am happy with that lens!
