The Panasonic Lumix DC-S1R is the company`s high-end, high-resolution full-frame mirrorless camera. It uses a 47MP sensor and is built around the `L` lens mount developed by Leica and now adopted by both Panasonic and Sigma.
The S1R shares a body with the 24 Megapixel S1, whose size and level of dedicated controls sets it apart from its other full-frame mirrorless rivals. The S1R boasts a very high resolution (5.7M-dot) viewfinder, top plate LCD panel, twin card slots and pro-level build-quality that promises to be weather resistant.
The S1R has a multi-shot high resolution mode, which delivers 187MP Raw files. In addition, it can shoot UHD 4K video at up to 60p. However, this video has a slight crop and is achieved by pixel-binning. Until the video-centric S1H sister model arrives, the less expensive S1 is the stronger video camera.
