Dynamic Video and Crisp, Decisive Photos
With renowned LUMIX color science and a wide dynamic range, the S1II captures expressive detail and true-to-life tones. The high-speed image sensor delivers sharp, clear results, while industry-leading reliability across the workflow makes it a creative partner that inspires new expression.
Robust Video Capabilities Across Formats
The S1II is packed with advanced, creator-friendly video recording features, such as a partially stacked CMOS sensor with high-speed readout, and supports open gate 6K 30p (3:2) and 5.1K 60p (3:2) recording, C4K/4K 120p high frame rate video, and high resolution / low noise oversampled 4K video.
High-Speed Readout for Stunning Dynamic Range
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 more expressive video.
Vivid, Clear Color and Resolution
LUMIX’s unique color science offers rich, expressive detail, with REAL TIME LUT to let you explore your own creative style. HEIF recording adds extra flexibility to the workflow. High Resolution mode offers 96MP-equivalent images, even when shooting handheld, for exceptional detail.
Fastest in the S Series
AFC burst shooting at approximately 10 fps using the mechanical shutter; switch to the electronic shutter’s SH Burst or SH Pre-Burst modes for up to 70 fps, even during fast-moving scenes like sports, wildlife, or vehicles. The viewfinder and monitor stay blackout-free for confident framing.
Next-level Autofocus with Advanced AI Recognition
Phase Hybrid AF and Advanced AI technology take the S1II's autofocus to the next level, focusing on eyes and faces even when they're tilted or partially obscured. Urban Sports recognition maintains precise focus even in dynamic performance scenes. Motorcycle mode has evolved into Motorcycle/Bike mode.
Technology with Active I.S.
Enjoy steady framing for both photos and videos, even when shooting handheld. When recording video, it reduces the significant shake and perspective distortion that often comes with walking shots. There's also a cropless mode that works well for wide-angle shots.
Built In
From casual use to pro production, the S1II supports a range of software: LUMIX Lab for editing and uploading, Capture One for pro photography, LUMIX Flow for streamlined video creation, and Frame.io Camera to Cloud for easy sharing and collaboration in real time.
Level Framing Ease
The S1II features a tilt and free-angle monitor for composing on the optical axis—even with cables plugged in—making it ideal for video production. Outdoors, the high-res OLED EVF with approx. 5,760k dots ensures clear, natural framing in any lighting condition.
Every Workflow
The S1II’s dual card slot includes CFexpress Type B support in Slot 1 for fast burst shooting and high-bitrate video. It also allows direct recording to USB-SSD, giving you the freedom to choose the best media for your shooting style and production needs.
