Images This pair of shots was taken on a Lumix S1R with a 70-200mm f/4 at 200mm on a Gitzo Traveller series 1 tripod. The exposure was 1/15sec at f/11 and ISO 100. You can see the effect of mode 2, where the poly bag appears sharp while in the mode 1 you can see evidence of the individual shots. Taken on a pre-production sample. Image quality is not final
Walking and filming with the OIS active gave remarkably stable images
Below I took most of my shots using the Lumix S Pro 70-20mm f/4 lens which balanced nicely on the S1R
axis system claiming a 5.5EV benefit and 6EV with OIS lenses. I did a few shots using the 70- 200mm f/4 lens shooting at 1/15sec and slower. The system performed verywell in stills andvideo shooting. Walking and filming with the OIS active gave remarkably stable images – and this was with the 70- 200mm too. The S1R shoots 4K/60p video with a 1.09x crop but it pixel bins too so quality is likely to be less good than the S1. If video is the main reason for buying into the S series
the S1 is the better option and you can shoot 4K/60p with a 1.5x crop and 40K/30p oversampled from its full sensor. The S1R packs a 47.3-megapixel resolution, the highest of any current full-frame camera. That means full- size files measuring around 65MB and opening up to 8368x5584pixels, big enough for prints of 27.9x18.6in at 300ppi without interpolation – A2 is 23.4x16.5in. Resizing in software or using a lower resolution means you can get seriously large prints
