GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?

Documentary & Street — M11-P (2023): The M11-P is the M11 made more discreet and verifiable — all-black with no logo, and the world's first camera with Content Credentials built in. The same 60MP rangefinder brilliance as the M11, with added significance for documentary and journalistic work where image authenticity cannot be disputed.

High-Resolution Landscape, Commercial & Studio Photography — Lumix S1R (2019): A 47MP full-frame resolution powerhouse with one of the finest EVFs ever made — the S1R rewards careful, deliberate photography.
