Panasonic Lumix S1 II review by DigitalCameraWorld: the best hybrid yet!
DigitalCameraWorld tested the new S1II and concluded:
Panasonic’s Lumix S1 II is the company’s most convincing hybrid yet, built for shooters who prize speed. It’s half-stacked 24 MP sensor fires 70 fps bursts and near-instant readout, virtually killing rolling shutter. Images are crisp, stabilised, and color-accurate, and the revamped phase-detect AF is dependable, although rivals edge it with erratic subjects. Videographers get uncropped 6K/30p open-gate and 4K/120p, plus unlimited record time, making this another compelling Lumix video camera. The catch is price, at $3,199 it tops Nikon’s Z6 III and the EOS R6 II, so buy it only if you plan to fully exploit every spec.
