tom0511 Posted April 14, 2019 Share #201 Posted April 14, 2019 Advertisement (gone after registration) I also own both bodies and I find the s1/s1r both heavier and also thicker with a deeper grip than the SL. But like you I rather use AF lenses on those bodies anyways. But sometimes for low light I used the 35FLE or for a compact UWA the 21/3.4 (on the SL, havent checked on the s1r yet) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted April 14, 2019 Posted April 14, 2019 Hi tom0511, Take a look here Is the S1/S1R a good backup camera for SL. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!

caissa Posted April 17, 2019 Author Share #204 Posted April 17, 2019 And another review of the S1.

caissa Posted April 17, 2019 Author Share #205 Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) I think it’s mainly BS, but for those who believe in it the DxO numbers for the S1 sensor. https://www.dxomark.com/panasonic-lumix-s1-sensor-review-2/. or this. https://www.imaging-resource.com/news/2019/04/09/dxomark-reviews-the-panasonic-s1-image-sensor or this https://www.thephoblographer.com/2019/04/09/the-sensor-in-the-panasonic-s1-beats-the-eos-r-and-z6/ I expected also a test for the S1R. (I thought I had read that its sensor was even slightly better) But I could not find it. Maybe later ... Edited April 17, 2019 by caissa 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

caissa Posted April 18, 2019 Author Share #207 Posted April 18, 2019 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) How big can you print with a SL or S1 compared to a S1R, 24 MP vs 50 MP. The video uses other cameres (from Fuji, XT3 and GFX, and Nikon Z7). But in the end it answers exactly this question (which I find quite interesting). Sorry if you think it is too far off. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZNr24yVD9s I quote: "The lenses make the biggest difference." Good news for Leica users. (But not really surprising.)

Jeff S Posted April 18, 2019 Share #208 Posted April 18, 2019 44 minutes ago, caissa said: Nearly perfect ? That excerpt could be quoted in a Panasonic ad. Nikon, however, would snip the end quote, where he says that it’s worth the money if you’re primarily a video shooter; otherwise “I’d go with Nikon’s Z6”.

caissa Posted April 19, 2019 Author Share #214 Posted April 19, 2019 (edited) Huff's review of the S1. Quite nice if you like his style. What I do not like, is that he completely ignores the facts, for example that serious testers have seen problems with M lenses on the S1 (diglloyd). I tried to add this in a readers letter, but it was simply suppressed - not very gentleman-like. http://www.stevehuffphoto.com/2019/04/17/the-panasonic-s1-camera-review-the-best-i-have-seen-this-year-2019/ I understand his problem. He has only very few real M lenses, so he cannot really make the tests - but then he should allow differing opinions of people who really did the tests with the actual lenses. (The 15mm voigtlaender is ok, as others have also confirmed. The WATE also. But some other M WA are not really good.)

It sounds like another paid promotion. Under sensor, he mentions neither the difference in noise at high ISO nor the malleability of files. And he concludes, the sensor winner is the S1R. 😂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

caissa Posted April 21, 2019 Author Share #219 Posted April 21, 2019 (edited) Sorry, here a small diversion, a completely different camera with Leica written on it. Maybe the future of photography ? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=NOqcpZj_NUg Another possible backup camera, but I do not know how weather resistant it is. But the EVF or rather back LCD is quite remarkable. Edited April 21, 2019 by caissa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the impression from Jonos review that the SL 35 is a great lens. But on the Leica website this impression is destroyed or least slightly damaged. There are now sample photos to be found under the title proofs of performance. But the lens used for these images had a problem on the left side, which has more vignetting than the other side. What a shame, it should have been easy to correct that. http://en.leica-camera.com/Photography/Leica-SL/SL-Lenses/Prime-Lenses/APO-Summicron-SL-35 Or if it is a misunderstanding and just a way to give more contrast to the text displayed, then it is still a very unfortunate way of display.
