There's a lot to like about the S1R, from its impressive video specs to its extensive feature set and still image quality. No camera is perfect and the S1R's size and price are definite drawbacks next to its close competitors. Still, we think there is ple...

Landscape, studio and event photographers, those with larger hands that prefer a larger grip and camera, outdoor photographers who need especially solid build quality
Travel photography and family photographers for whom the S1R's size and weight will be a burden, sports photographers who will need more speed and better autofocus, and dedicated video shooters

Excellent handling, High-resolution images, 5-axis in-body stabilization, Dual card slots, Best video in the high-resolution full-frame category
Contrast-detect autofocus inferior to rivals, Heavy, Much too expensive, Mediocre low-light performance and dynamic range
Things change so quickly that it's impossible to evaluate cameras without considering the big picture. Even just a month ago, I would have had a more positive view of the S1R. After all, it has a great new mount, excellent handling and build quality, snap...

Panasonic has chosen a new high-resolution 47.3MP CMOS sensor for the Lumix DC-S1R—one that challenges the class-leading sensors in the Sony A7R III and the Nikon Z 7. Intriguingly, it combines attributes of both of its rivals (with some nuances) and achi...
Superb resolution, 4K video at 60/50p, Dual image stabilisation, Solid handling, Twin card slots/formats
More expensive than rivals, Limited lens system so far, 360/340-shot battery life, Rivals better for action
The Lumix S1R is big, hefty and solid and feels like it means business. It handles well and produces excellent image quality – and offers 60p 4K video, too. But while it offers a few features its Sony, Canon and Nikon full frame mirrorless rivals don't ha...
