Ultimate Resolution. Professional Performance.
A new 47.3MP CMOS sensor that delivers incredibly realistic detail. Focus and image stabilization systems that capture each instant with stunning clarity. A body design that fluidly guides photographic intentions toward unforgettable images. With all these features and more, the Panasonic Lumix S1R full-frame mirrorless camera transports you to the world of passionate image creation.
47.3MP CMOS Sensor for Uncompromising Expressive Power
The LUMIX S1R is designed to deliver the ultimate in photographic expression. Offering the highest level of resolution among full-frame mirrorless cameras, the 47.3-megapixel full-frame (36mm x 24mm) CMOS sensor produces finely detailed and stunningly realistic images without any low-pass filter to get in the way.
Featuring an aspherical on-chip micro lens and an optimized design that increases incident light to the photodiode, this new sensor combines a best-in-class megapixel count with an outstanding light condensing rate. The result is a sky-high signal-to-noise ratio and maximum sensitivity of ISO25600. This is full-frame image quality that allows photographers to pursue their art beyond previous limits.
Venus Engine Beauty
The marriage of a CMOS sensor with the beautiful Venus Engine reproduces extraordinary color detail and natural texture expression. Multipixel Luminance Generation and Intelligent Detail Processing render intense brightness and contrast. The Three-Dimensional Color Control zings with rich colors from dark to bright shades, and high-precision Multi Process NR makes your images pop even at high ISO sensitivity settings.
5-axis Dual I.S.
Be confident taking incredibly sharp handheld photos without having to worry about shake: the 5-axis Dual I.S. 2 (Image Stabilizer), intelligent compensation comes to your aid. This is the equivalent to 6 doublings of exposure duration, meaning you can use a 6-stop slower shutter speed up to tele-end. The LUMIX S1R eliminates shake in both body and lens even at the telephoto setting. It also works in both photo and video recording, including 4K video. The astonishing power of the 5-axis Body I.S. with 5.5-stop compensation power corrects shake for all lenses, even those not equipped with O.I.S.
Advanced Recognition Technology
Panasonic’s advanced technology provides unified control of the sensor, engine, and lens to deliver high-speed, high-precision focus at every angle. Super-fast sensor-lens communication of 480 fps and Panasonic’s DFD (Depth From Defocus) technology help make high-speed, high-precision autofocus of approximately 0.08 seconds a reality. In addition, the low-light autofocus performs at an impressive -6EV. Higher sensitivity and optimized tuning of the sensor have increased luminance detection performance, making possible crisp focusing with nothing more than starlight. Advanced AI technology can recognize not only the human body but such animals as dogs, cats, and birds, while the high-performance tracking system helps keep the subject in focus at all times.
5,760k-dot Resolution Real View Finder
Boasting ultra-high resolution of 5,760k dots, the Real View Finder is the highest resolution in its class. Outstanding clarity and sharpness make it feel as though you’re looking at the subject with your own eye and help you concentrate while shooting. With a lens designed for minimum distortion from the center to the corners and high magnification of 0.78x, the Real View Finder supports both perfect framing and high-precision focusing. The responsive OLED display offers an extremely low 0.005-second minimum lag time and an ultra-high 120 fps refresh rate to help keep fast-moving subjects in view. In addition, the 0.78x magnification ratio can be switched to 0.7x or 0.74x according to the shooting situation.
Double Memory Card Slot for Flexible Data Management
The double memory card slot is compatible with SD Memory Cards (UHS-II) and XQD Memory Cards. Allocation Record mode allows you to specify the card slot to be used for recording for different image formats. This feature is also convenient for recording long videos or as a backup. Relay Recording mode relays recording to the other card slot after the first card runs out of free space during recording. Backup Recording mode records the same data to the two cards.
Tough Body for a Wide Range of Weather Conditions
The tough body is ready to take on a variety of challenging shooting environments. The magnesium alloy full die-cast frame is highly durable, while sealing helps protect every seam, dial, and button. The camera as a whole is dust- and splash-resistant and designed for use at temperatures as low as -10 °C. In combination, these features help make shooting both productive and enjoyable in a wide range of weather conditions.
4K 60p/50p Smooth Video Recording
In combination, Panasonic’s 4K technology, new CMOS sensor, and new Venus Engine deliver spectacular 4K 60p/50p video (QFHD 4K: 3840 x 2160 MP4) in a full-frame format. Thanks to these advanced technologies, even rapidly moving scenes look smooth and natural.
