The LUMIX S1R offers the optimal photographic expression capability. The 47.3-megapixel sensor (36 mm x 24 mm) provides the highest resolution in its category, producing detailed and incredibly realistic images without a disturbing low-pass filter. Reliable sharp and shake-free photos without a tripod are possible thanks to the Dual I.S. image stabilizer. The 5-axis body stabilizer compensates for the effects of camera shake, allowing for handheld shots up to 5.5 stops longer. Panasonic's advanced technology enables unified control of the sensor, drive, and motor, providing extremely fast and precise focus from any angle. Extremely fast communication between the sensor and lens at 480 frames per second and DFD technology enable autofocus of approximately 0.08 seconds with high speed and precision.

With 5.76 million pixels, the OLED viewfinder of the S1 cameras offers the highest resolution of electronic viewfinders available and an image of exceptional clarity. The real-time viewfinder operates at a refresh rate of up to 120 frames per second with a minimal lag of just 0.005 seconds. This ensures that images with movement and panning are rendered cleanly defined. The two memory card slots are compatible with SD memory cards (UHS-II) and XQD memory cards. If you want to photograph in difficult weather conditions, you need to be able to rely completely on your camera. The LUMIX S1R features dust, splash, and cold protection for temperatures down to -10 °C. With its robust design, it is equipped for any situation. In combination, the 4K technology, CMOS sensor, and Venus Engine image processor deliver spectacular video recordings at 4K 60p / 50p (QFHD 4K: 3,840 x 2,160 MP4) in full frame. Thanks to these advanced technologies, even scenes with very fast movements appear absolutely smooth and natural.
