LUMIX S1 Full Frame Mirrorless Camera with 24.2MP MOS High Resolution Sensor, 24-105mm F4 L-Mount S Series Lens, 4K HDR Video and 3.2” LCD - DC-S1MK Black

This is a spectacular camera. From super clean high ISO video files to outstanding JPG/RAW photos, Panasonic has put their best achievements in a single affordable package. I'm pretty convinced that the IBIS system has been sent back from the future - it's simply amazing. I am a Canon 5D IV and Fuji X-H1/X-T3 user so I have no loyalty to any one brand...whoever makes imaging equipment that pushes the technology forward, that's where my money goes. I would get rid of my other cameras in favor of the S1, but this thing is not light/small/portable and will attract attention in certain settings. That's where the Fuji system wins...the X-H1 is actually one of the best cameras on the market for photo and video btw (despite some of the unwarranted negative reviews that Fuji "missed" on this model - NOT true). I would never get rid of my X-H1. The Canon still has the best skin tones and let's face it - there's no substitute for phase-detection autofocus when your subject is moving fast. I didn't get the new Panny S 24-105 F/4 lens with the S1, because F/4 is not very exciting and I already have a couple of fast Canon L lenses already. I picked up the MC-21 Sigma adapter and my Canon lenses work perfectly with the S1 and the IBIS keeps the video rock steady. The Canon 35mm 1.4 L II is particularly good with the S1 for video and photos. Just so happy with this combo right now. It's such a great time to be a photographer/videographer. The only drawbacks I'm noticing is that though the battery life is good, I had to buy a couple of spares and they are not cheap. Also, the weight of the system must be considered before you grab the S1 and head out of the house. The XQD cards will also have you eating mac n' cheese and drinking instant soup out of a foam cup for a few weeks if you want to fill that second card slot. I don't want to buy new cards.

This camera is a great hybrid photo/video camera. I wish I had gone with the S1R for higher megapixels, but this is still an excellent camera that I won't need to upgrade for years to come.

The S1 is definitely an upgrade from the GH5s. There may be more recording features in the GH5s but the full-frame, superb quality, better low light capability, and full VLog makes it all worth it. I upgraded and have not looked back. I believe that Panasonic will release more recording features later. Excellent camera!

I am incredibly impressed with this mirrorless, my first professional camera and I am so glad I went with this one! It’s got quite a weight to it but I absolutely love it! The settings are clear, the lens is understanding to use and just using the product itself is amazing. Best camera I spent by far and can’t wait to use more of it!

Unfortunately, I could not test the camera, the lens may be damaged. In the photo it is good to see the loose ring inside the lens.

Panasonic has created a great camera in the S1. The IQ/color science, handling, and durably are fantastic, while the menu system is logical.

The camera is a brick but I really liked it until I tested the zoom lens that comes with it, very soft on the edges especially on closeups. Never saw this in the reviews so maybe this was just a bad apple.

I upgraded from a G9 to this camera to deal with low light issues, and its been a dream to use. If you're familiar with Lumix systems I don't see how you would not be happy with this camera. Though I have to get used to the weight of the camera, it does feel better in my hand and the in-body stabilization is just next level.

tested for a few months, great lowlight, dynamic range, long record times, good battery life and intuitive menu. Gave 4/5 stars because although there are several lens adapters for photography autofocus there is no adapter for continuous autofocus for video yet so expect to pay up for the expensive lenses if you want that.
