The Panasonic Lumix S1II sets a new benchmark in hybrid imaging performance, combining the power of a 24MP partially stacked full-frame sensor with exceptional versatility for both stills and video creators. Delivering an impressive 15+ stops of dynamic range, the S1II ensures richly detailed images with remarkable tonal depth, even in the most demanding lighting conditions.
Videographers will find an extensive suite of high-end recording options, including 6K 60p in a cinematic 2.4:1 aspect ratio, 5.9K 60p in classic 16:9, and 5.8K 60p in 17:9, all harnessing the full width of the sensor for breathtaking clarity. For slow motion enthusiasts, the S1II captures stunning 4K 120p footage using the entire sensor, preserving a natural, immersive look. Open Gate recording at 6K 30p and 5.1K 60p opens creative possibilities for flexible reframing and high-end delivery workflows, while internal ProRes RAW recording elevates post-production flexibility even further.
With Arri Log C3 compatibility available via an optional upgrade key, the S1II seamlessly integrates into professional colour grading pipelines. Content creators will appreciate the convenience of backing up or copying media directly from SD or CFexpress cards to an SSD, and the option to record video directly to an external SSD via USB adds even more adaptability. When paired with the XLR 2 adapter, the camera supports 32-bit float audio recording, ensuring pristine, distortion-free sound capture.
The S1II's autofocus system sees a significant leap forward, particularly when shooting high frame rate video. A newly introduced urban sports subject recognition mode expertly tracks fast, unpredictable movement across disciplines such as street dance, skateboarding, BMX and parkour. For photographers, the camera delivers blistering speeds of up to 70fps continuous shooting with the electronic shutter, while the mechanical shutter offers up to 10fps, both supported by blackout-free performance that lets you capture every decisive moment without interruption.
Designed for supreme stability, the S1II features 8.0 stops of body image stabilisation, providing rock-solid handheld shooting across both stills and video. Composing your shots is a pleasure through the ultra-detailed 5.76 million-dot electronic viewfinder and the versatile 1.84 million-dot LCD, which offers both tilt and vari-angle adjustment for creative freedom. With dual card slots supporting CFexpress and SD media, the Lumix S1II is as reliable as it is powerful, ready to meet the demands of professional and passionate creators alike.
