Olympus E-M1 II vs Panasonic S1H

Here, we will be comparing the Olympus E-M1 II versus Panasonic S1H, both Pro Mirrorless cameras by manufacturers Olympus and Panasonic. The resolution of the E-M1 II (20MP) and the S1H (24MP) is relatively close but the E-M1 II (Four Thirds) and S1H (Full frame) have different sensor sizes.

The E-M1 II was revealed 3 years before the S1H and that is a fairly large difference as far as camera technology is concerned. Each of these cameras feature the same body design (SLR-style mirrorless).

Before getting into a in-depth comparison, here is a concise view of how the E-M1 II scores vs the S1H when considering portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

The following is a preview of the gallery photos for Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II & Panasonic Lumix DC-S1H. The full galleries are available at Olympus E-M1 II Gallery & Panasonic S1H Gallery.

When you are aiming to lug around your camera frequently, you need to take into account its weight and size. The Olympus E-M1 II offers outside dimensions of 134mm x 91mm x 67mm (5.3" x 3.6" x 2.6") having a weight of 574 grams (1.27 lbs) and the Panasonic S1H has specifications of 151mm x 114mm x 110mm (5.9" x 4.5" x 4.3") with a weight of 1052 grams (2.32 lbs).

Take into account, the weight of an ILC will differ based on the lens you are utilising at the time. Here is a front view dimension comparison of the E-M1 II versus the S1H.

Taking into consideration dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the E-M1 II and S1H is 68 and 52 respectively.

Quite often, it can be hard to imagine the contrast in sensor measurements merely by researching specifications. The visual here will help provide you a stronger sense of the sensor sizes in the E-M1 II and S1H.

Plainly, both cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The E-M1 II having a smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallower DOF tougher and the Panasonic S1H will provide you with extra detail because of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop photographs way more aggressively. The older E-M1 II will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
