For photographers wanting more than 44.3-megapixels of resolution, the S1RII offers a handheld high-resolution mode that can capture still images at 177-megapixels by shifting the sensor half a pixel and capturing and merging multiple exposures.

Panasonic has reinvented its high-res full-framer as a hybrid all-rounder, but it's the promised of improved AF that grabbed our attention.

The S1RII is lighter, more compact and more powerful than its high-resolution predecessor. The camera is designed to inspire photo and video enthusiasts.
