  • Sensor has dual practicality, Pixel shifting offers lots of possibilities, Excellent top panel display backlight, Chargeable through the USB-C port
  • Overly sensitive shutter release button, Auto Focus could be better
  • Minus system expansion considerations, the S1 is a fully featured, highly capable camera that coupled with an L-mount lens to suit a budget will offer its user a surprising level of satisfaction.For sample file requests email Chris Oaten at chris@insightv...

  • Stellar ergonomics, Great results & expansive lens ecosystem
  • Autofocus not as fast as G9, Video record button placement not ideal
  • Where other camera brands are just getting started with mirrorless, it feels like the Lumix S1 and S1R are more interested in pushing boundaries forward - and that's something that's easy to get on-board with...

  • Pricier than competitors, Heavy, Contrast focus limits tracking speed and burst rate, Lens selection limited at this time
  • The Panasonic Lumix DC-S1 delivers great image quality and includes a high-resolution mode not found in other 24MP models, but it can't keep up when it comes to tracking speed...

  Published: 2020-08-19, Author: Pascale , review by: Cnetfrance.fr

  • Viseur électronique 5,7 Mpx, stabilisation mécanique du capteur, mode haute définition, qualité d'image, robustesse, mode vidéo très complet
  • Encombrement et poids élevés, autonomie limitée, autofocus moins véloce que la concurrence
  • Bien que la concurrence ait dévoilé de nombreux modèles dans ses gammes hybrides 24x36, le Panasonic S1 conserve de nombreux atouts, à commencer pas sa polyvalence en photo et en vidéo. Mais l'appareil manque de charme, son prix reste élevé et sa gamme...

  • Endurance de la batterie, Suivi des sujets
  • Le Lumix S1 est une franche réussite, le genre d'appareil qui fait avancer la compétition. Quand il a fallu à Sony trois générations de boîtiers plein format pour revenir à des boîtiers moins petits, Panasonic a directement mis les pieds dans le plat en p...
