LUMIX S1II

Nice. Thanks for posting this. As always, there is 0 information on the German Panasonic website. Compatible with S1RII, S1II and S1IIE as of February 2026. I hope they will add the older models as well - via a firmware update. That would be nice. Edit: YouTube reviews are out. I watched these two.

An S1ii costs less than an FX3 and outperforms it. If I didn't have Sony glass I'd take that over an FX3 or FX30 any day (I'm still shooting Sony with over 1k paid gigs done on an a7siii/FX3 so not a Panasonic shill, just being objective)

Genuinely confused as to how you could get this so wrong. The S1II and the A7V are the same price currently in the US ($2899), The R6 III is $100 cheaper, Nikon Z8 starts at $3100 used on MPB, and the A1 starts at $3400 used. At $2356, the S1ii a DEAL. Let's break this down: - Photography: all the b

Hey there! Full time business photographer videographer here. Looks like you’re hitting the limit of using a hybrid photo camera for long form video. The Nikon Z8 is an incredible camera, but some would say it isn’t built for hour plus continuous recording, especially in a theater environment. Readi

I didn't use Fuji before but also just didn't like the colors out of my new S5II at all, even when editing my raws, compared to my old Canon. Then I found this guy: https://www.reddit.com/r/Lumix/comments/1p1rm30/i_mathematically_hacked_panasonic_vlog_to/ and now I pretty much shoot exclusively jpgs wit

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

In no particular order: Panasonic S1ii Nikon Z8 or ZR Sony A7v Canon R6iii Read the reviews, watch the videos and hold them in your hand and check out the menus. Any of them would do a great job. But there isn't one perfect camera: some have open gate, some have RAW, some have higher frame rates, yo

I have both. I wanted a second body for video and picked up an S1ii a few weeks ago. Z8 has been my main photo beast for awhile. I find myself using the S1ii more and more as my edc and I've really been enjoying using it as true hybrid. For some reason it makes me want to get out and take more video

I'd say that MFT is undead - on the OM side, everything that's been released is a repackaging of the technology from OM-1, when the R&D was completed by Olympus already prior to the camera, binocular and dictaphone business being offloaded. On the Panasonic side, the G9II is a great camera, so is th

I can only speak to full frame. If you don't need the ABSOLUTE best in autofocus, and want to avoid breaking the bank, the Panasonic S5IIX does absolutely everything well. One step up in price will give you a big step up in performance to the Panasonic S1II. Another step up in price will give you an
