Canon R vs Panasonic S1H

Below, we are looking at the Canon R versus Panasonic S1H, both Pro Mirrorless cameras by manufacturers Canon and Panasonic. There exists a significant gap among the resolutions of the R (30MP) and S1H (24MP) but they come with the exact same sensor measurements (Full frame).

The R was unveiled 11 months prior to the S1H which means that they are of a similar generation. Each of these cameras come with the identical body type (SLR-style mirrorless).

Before delving in to a in depth comparison, below is a short summary of how the R matches up versus the S1H in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Below is a sample of the gallery pictures for Canon EOS R and Panasonic Lumix DC-S1H. The full galleries are available at Canon R Gallery and Panasonic S1H Gallery.

For anybody who is planning to carry around your camera regularly, you'll need to factor its weight and measurements. The Canon R features outside dimensions of 136mm x 98mm x 84mm (5.4" x 3.9" x 3.3") with a weight of 660 grams (1.46 lbs) whilst the Panasonic S1H has proportions of 151mm x 114mm x 110mm (5.9" x 4.5" x 4.3") with a weight of 1052 grams (2.32 lbs).

Don't forget, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary depending on the lens you are working with at that time. The following is the front view over all size comparison of the R compared to the S1H.

Looking at dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the R and S1H is 62 and 52 respectively.

More often than not, it can be hard to visualise the gap in sensor sizes simply by looking through a spec sheet. The pic below will provide you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the R and S1H.

As you can see, the two cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Canon R to provide you with extra detail having an extra 6MP. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The more aged R will be behind when it comes to sensor tech.
