Panasonic today announced the launch of its full-frame mirrorless Lumix S series in the Indian market. Lumix S1 and S1R were the two mirrorless cameras launched with 24MP and 47.3MP full-frame CMOS sensor respectively. The new S series is based on the L-Mount standard, which provides an excellent imaging experience.
The latest Lumix S Series aims to provide image quality with high-res mode for the first time in mirrorless full-frame with video recording up to 4K 60pfps, image stabilization, rich gradation, and superior color reproduction. Lumix S1 and S1R offer a high-speed, high-precision AF system based on advanced control technology over the lens, the sensor, and the new Venus Engine enable the user to capture the target in sharp.
Panasonic offers a high-speed AF on both the cameras with its advanced control technology over the major devices – lens, sensor and imaging engine. The lens and sensor communicate at a maximum of 480fps. Combining the Contrast AF with DFD technology, the Lumix S1R/S1 realizes an ultra-high-speed, high-precision AF of approximately 0.08 sec. The Lumix S1R/S1 also boasts high-speed burst shooting at 9 fps (AFS) or 6 fps (AFC).
Further, The LVF (Live View Finder) is the key factor for completing the ultra-high-speed response of the camera. The Lumix S1R/S1 has the largest level of Real View Finder which boasts the world’s highest 5,760k-dot resolution. The 0.78x magnification ratio can be switched to 0.7x or 0.74x according to the shooting situation. Adoption of a high-speed, high-precision OLED for the LVF achieves smooth display at 60 fps/120 fps.
The 7.4-V 3,050 mAH battery can be quickly charged via USB PD using the bundled USB 3.1 Type-C cable which also ensures high-speed data transfer. To provide the best services to its customers, Panasonic has also introduced its Lumix Pro program. In addition to providing assistance and services to the customers, it will also run a loyalty program offering various benefits. The professional and amateur photographers and videographers can grab their new unit from Panasonic’s retail outlets across the country.
