Lumix S1R II has challenged every perception as to what is a camera for photography vs video. While Panasonic has created its reputation on video-centered mirrorless cameras, it can be a 44.3-megapixel powerhouse, just the best photo camera that you can buy now.
Coming from you Pav sZThis eye -opening video shows why Panasonic S1R II Sony is worthy of serious consideration from photographers ignoring lumics cameras in favor of Canon or Nikon. PAV immediately notices the extraordinary visual quality of the camera, clearly describes it as “absolutely excellent” with bright and sharp performance compared to the S5 II series. Flip screen design and overall construction quality strengthens the assumption that this camera was designed with photography as primary focus despite its impressive video abilities. The set that sets this camera is not only a high-resolution sensor, but a 177-megapixel handheld high-resolution mode and features such as pre-spell shooting that capture images before pressing the shutter completely.
The video examines several photography-specific features that make S1R II in the crowded market. The extraordinary image of the PAV camera highlights the stabilization system, which usually allows handheld shoots at much slow shutter speed compared to possible. The high-resolution sensor proves invaluable to architectural photography, allowing buildings to correctly straighten, and for wildlife or macro work where cropping maintains excellent image quality. Built-in 65:24 aspect ratio crop mode, borrowed from film photography tradition, encourages different creative thinking. The real-time lut system goes beyond the offering of the contestants, making the custom made through the lumics lab app and applied directly to the in-camera.
