Description
The Hybrid Powerhouse. Flagship Speed and Refinement.
The Lumix S1 II is the 2026 definitive "high-speed hybrid" flagship, officially released in late June 2025. It represents a significant strategic shift for Panasonic, moving away from the "slower" sensor of the original S1 and adopting the company’s first Partially Stacked CMOS sensor. This technology provides the readout speeds necessary for professional sports and high-end video while maintaining the industry-leading ergonomics and weather-sealing that defined the original S1 series.
Key Features
-
24.1MP Partially Stacked CMOS Sensor: A newly developed sensor that delivers significantly faster readout speeds, virtually eliminating rolling shutter in electronic mode.
-
Internal 5.1K/60p Open Gate: Captures the full 3:2 sensor area, allowing for high-resolution reframing into both 16:9 and 9:16 (vertical) formats without loss of quality.
-
70 fps Blackout-Free Continuous Shooting: A massive leap in speed, allowing for nearly silent high-speed bursts with full AF/AE tracking.
-
World-Class 8.0-Stop I.S.: Combines 5-axis In-Body Image Stabilization with Lens O.I.S. and "Active I.S." for rock-steady handheld video even while walking.
-
Internal Apple ProRes RAW HQ: A landmark feature that allows for professional RAW video recording directly to CFexpress Type B cards without the need for an external recorder.

Technical Breakdown
The S1 II is powered by the latest Venus Engine, which handles the massive data throughput of the partially stacked sensor. As of March 2026, the Firmware v1.4 update has added compatibility with the DMW-DMS1 Digital Shotgun Microphone and introduced a "Director Monitor" mode, allowing you to use a tablet as a mirrored monitor via the LUMIX Flow app. While the video specs are near-cinema level, Panasonic has maintained a "stills-first" focus on ergonomics, retaining the robust, weather-sealed chassis that can operate down to -10°C.
