(L5) Panasonic S1H will be annunced on August 27! Will have 6 stops in body stabilization and “cooled” 24,2 MP sensor.

The  official Panasonic S1H specs will  be announced  on August 27!

One of my sources had  some time with the production ready cameras and told me this:

The S1H will have 6 stops stabilization inbody, fully lockable. Its double up from gh5. And a fan! For cooling and unlimited recording. Its meant to match vericam as far as rec format. And its a little bigger to the back, due to the fan. And the monitor Can be tilted out and rotated like a combi og the s1 and gh5, so its viewable from all sides and wont get restricted by a cage or cables on the side.

24,2 mp sensor cooled for continous rec. 6 stops stabilization internal. 6,2 dual.
Sound rec in hfr.
Dynamic range 14 stops. 6k sensor in 4:3 for anamorph and in 16:9 5,9k

Stay tuned on August 27!

Panasonic S1R Field Test by Imaging Resource: Expertly blends classic feel & functionality with modern performance

Imaging Resource posted their Panasonic S1R Field Test:

What I liked:

  • Very good build quality
  • Excellent electronic viewfinder
  • Impressive image quality
  • Reliable autofocus in most situations
  • Good overall performance

What I didn’t like:

  • Camera will be too large and heavy for some
  • Struggles a bit with some action photography situations
  • Quite expensive

The Panasonic S1R is a really good full-frame mirrorless camera. The image stabilization and reliable autofocus help make capturing high-quality images with the S1R very easy. The electronic viewfinder is excellent as well, helping to make shooting with the S1R an enjoyable experience. Further, image quality is impressive across the board. It’s not the best choice for every photographer, but for those who emphasize a well-built, rugged camera body and high-end image quality, the S1R should absolutely be considered.
