Sensor Properties | |
The Lumix S1R has a Full frame CMOS sensor with size of 36 x 24 mm² (1.42″ x 0.94″). Picture of Lumix S1R’s sensor compared to popular format. The 1-Euro coin has a diameter of 23.25mm. The Lumix S1R’s image sensor has an effective resolution of around 47 megapixel. The resolution is far above average and will easily be sufficient for years to come. Photos with this resolution can easily be printed in A2 size or larger, even if unwanted parts of the photo have to be cropped. The Panasonic supports taking images in RAW. RAW images are stored as they come from the sensor, without any in-camera processing or sharpening. Converting to JPEG or other formats takes place on the computer, using software like Adobe Lightroom or Panasonic’s RAW converter. This involves one extra processing step but almost always results in superior image quality. Some filters, like converting to monochrome (black and white) will only yield decent results when used with RAW images. The Lumix S1R features a mechanism for automatic sensor cleaning. |

Auto Focus Properties | |
The Lumix S1R’s auto focus processor uses 225 AF points (or sensors). A basic rule of thumb says that the more AF points you have, the better. More AF points mean a better chance to have a point at the location of interest in a scene, a big plus in challenging situations (e.g. when panning the camera). Manual focus is also possible with the Panasonic, a plus in tricky situations or for some creative freedom. |

Display Specs | |
The Lumix S1R features a monitor with a diagonal of 80.00mm (3.1 in.) and a resolution of c. 2.10 megapixel. A resonable value that will make it easy to evaluate images directly in-camera. The camera’s display is articulated, a plus for selfies and other challenging situations. The Lumix S1R’s monitor can work as a touch screen, just like a smartphone. That can be very useful, for example to pick AF points, but keep in mind that touch screens usually don’t work when wearing gloves. Display characteristics at a glance: |
