Features

Dynamic video and crisp, decisive photos — powered by a newly developed partially stacked sensor

ith LUMIX’s renowned color science and a wide dynamic range, the LUMIX S1II captures expressive detail and true-to-life tones. Its high-speed image sensor delivers sharp, clear results, while industry-leading reliability across the workflow makes it a creative partner that pushes artistic boundaries and inspires new expression.

Stunningly lifelike motion with higher frame rates and richer gradation

Stunning clarity and dynamic range, powered by high-speed readout

The LUMIX S1II features a newly developed partially stacked CMOS sensor — LUMIX’s first* — delivering ultra-fast readout speeds and exceptionally detailed reproduction. This is also the first in the LUMIX S Series* to feature Dynamic Range Boost**, delivering smoother gradations and richer, more expressive video. ･15 stops V-Log/V-Gamut***
*As of May 2025, among Panasonic’s digital cameras. **When using Dynamic Range Boost, video image quality and ISO sensitivity are restricted and there will be an increase in rolling shutter distortion. ***Dynamic Range Boost ON: 15 stops. Dynamic Range Boost OFF: 14+ stops.

A full suite of video formats featuring 5.1K 60p open gate recording

Designed for creators with a vision, this camera comes packed with advanced video recording formats. Thanks to a newly developed partially stacked CMOS sensor with high-speed readout, it supports open gate 6K 30p (3:2) and 5.1K 60p (3:2) recording, C4K/4K 120p high frame rate video, along with oversampled 4K video that delivers exceptional resolution and low noise. It opens up new creative possibilities for filmmakers and content creators. ･6K 30p / 5.1K 60p 4:2:0 10-bit (3:2) open gate video recording ･5.9K/5.8K 60p 4:2:0 10-bit ･C4K/4K 120p 4:2:0 10-bit / FHD 240p 4:2:2 10-bit ･C4K/4K 60p 4:2:2 10-bit ･C4K/4K 60p / 5.8K 30p ProRes RAW HQ internal recording

Outstanding photography to capture every decisive moment

Every moment, captured with clarity — 24.1MP sensor

LUMIX’s unique color science, based on its picture-making philosophy “Capturing It All,” works in harmony with a newly developed 24.1MP partially stacked CMOS sensor to capture fleeting moments in rich, expressive detail. REAL TIME LUT also let you explore your own creative style. HEIF recording is now available as an option, adding extra flexibility to your workflow. High Resolution mode also enables you to capture 96MP-equivalent images*, even when shooting handheld, for exceptional detail without sacrificing mobility. ･24.1MP partially stacked CMOS sensor ･HEIF recording (4:2:0 10-bit) ･High Resolution mode with a 96-megapixel equivalent resolution
*The picture after merging can be saved in RAW or JPEG format. Cannot be saved in the HEIF format.

Fastest in the LUMIX S Series*: AFC burst shooting at 70 fps**

With a newly developed partially stacked CMOS sensor that enables high-speed readout, the camera offers AFC burst shooting at approximately 10 fps using the mechanical shutter***. Switch to the electronic shutter’s SH Burst or SH Pre-Burst modes, and you can capture critical moments at up to 70 fps**, even during fast-moving scenes like sports, wildlife, or vehicles. The viewfinder and monitor stay blackout-free, allowing for confident framing with post view support. ･AFS/AFC 70 fps** burst shooting with electronic shutter ･AFS/AFC*** 10 fps burst shooting with mechanical shutter
*As of May 2025, among Panasonic’s digital cameras. **When set to Speed Priority in SH Burst Shooting mode. ***When set to Speed Priority in H+ Burst Shooting mode.
