The Panasonic S1 is a full-frame mirrorless camera with an L-Mount, offering top-notch features for both photography and videography. Its attributes and durability make it an excellent choice for professionals and demanding enthusiasts. The camera utilizes a new 24-megapixel sensor and records oversampled 4K30p video or 4K/60p video with an APS-C crop.
The S1 camera body features a 5-axis image stabilizer that provides up to 5.5 stops of stabilization, even with non-stabilized lenses. The S1 boasts the most accurate 5.76 million pixel OLED viewfinder on the market. Thanks to the high-quality image sensor, the ISO sensitivity in extended mode reaches an impressive 204,800, making low-light photography a breeze. The wide dynamic range facilitates post-processing. The autofocus employs Panasonic's DFD technology and operates down to -6 EV brightness. The fast processor and sensor allow for autofocus updates at a rate of 480 times per second. The body includes two memory card slots, a modern and ultra-fast XQD slot, as well as an additional SD card slot with UHS-II support.
The video capabilities of the Panasonic S1 are professional-grade. With good cooling, the S1 can record 4K30p videos and Full HD videos without time limits. An upgrade is also available to enable 10-bit 4:2:2 video recording. The S1 features a microphone input for better audio quality and a headphone jack for audio monitoring. Additionally, the camera has an HDMI A port, allowing you to output video to an external recorder or use it for monitoring.
Many lenses for the L-Mount from Panasonic, Sigma, and Leica are expected, making the future look promising!
