Who the Panasonic LUMIX S1R is for

The Panasonic LUMIX S1R is a 47.3MP full-frame mirrorless camera, aimed at high-resolution detail work.

A 47MP full-frame L-mount camera for high-resolution stills, with a 187MP high-res mode.
5-axis IBIS, a class-leading EVF and a rugged, weather-sealed body.
4K video and detail-critical performance for landscape and studio work.

Best for

Landscapes, studio and big prints — 47.3MP of detail with room to crop.
Vlogging and handheld video — flip-out screen and a mic input.
Travel and the outdoors — in-body stabilisation plus weather sealing.

Keep in mind

Single card slot — no in-camera backup, which matters for critical paid jobs.

How the Panasonic LUMIX S1R compares to other L-Mount Full-Frame cameras

Every figure below is measured against the 8 L-Mount Full-Frame cameras in the catalogue, so you can see where this camera actually sits rather than reading its spec sheet in isolation.

Spec	This camera	Where it lands
Weight	1030g (2.27 lb)	the heaviest of 8
Price (MSRP)	$3,699	the most expensive of 8
Resolution	47.3MP	the highest of 8
4K frame rate	30p	the slowest of 8

What Full-Frame means in practice

A full-frame sensor at 47.3MP gives the shallowest depth of field of the three formats at any given framing and aperture, and the most sensor area to gather light with. That is the physical reason full-frame bodies tend to be the larger and heavier option: the lenses that cover the format have to be bigger too.

Video, stabilisation and weather sealing

4K tops out at 30p, which covers standard delivery but leaves no room for slowing footage down. A log profile is available, which trades a flat-looking file for latitude in post.

In-body stabilisation steadies any lens mounted on it, including primes with no stabilisation of their own. The body is weather-sealed.
