Dpreview added the LUmix S1rII Studio tests and wrote:
It’s pretty apparent that the Panasonic Lumix DC-S1RII is built around the IMX366 sensor from Sony Semiconductor. So we see a sensor with dual conversion gain giving lots of dynamic range at base ISO and well-controlled noise once you move to the second gain mode. Its BSI design means its high image quality should be maintained right to the corners of the image, as it means the pixels can reliably receive light from more acute angles than on older FSI sensors.
It does this while being fast enough to deliver 8K footage at an acceptable rate (though not great by video camera standards), despite taking the unusual step of using a slower, 13-bit readout mode, which should give it a DR edge over its peers. We’ll be looking more closely at that in the coming weeks. But on the stills side of things, the S1RII seems to be built on predictably firm foundations.
