The Lumix S1 II is Panasonic's second-generation full-frame L-mount camera — a significant step forward from the original S1 that launched the system in 2019. Built on a new full-frame BSI CMOS sensor, the S1 II combines phase-detect autofocus with advanced subject recognition across humans, animals, and vehicles. The in-body stabilisation system delivers class-leading performance, and the video specification — including 4K/120p — positions it as one of the most capable hybrid cameras at its price. The robust, weather-sealed build retains the S1's professional-grade construction, and the dual card system accommodates demanding workflows. For hybrid photographers and video professionals who want full-frame L-mount performance with modern autofocus, the S1 II is the definitive upgrade.
The S1 II is the full-frame L-mount hybrid camera Panasonic's system has been waiting for — phase-detect AF, 4K/120p, class-leading IBIS, and a professional build in one complete package. It addresses every weakness of the original S1 and positions Lumix firmly back in the conversation for serious hybrid shooters.
