Panasonic S1H vs Panasonic G10

Below is a complete analysis of the Panasonic S1H versus Panasonic G10, one being a Pro Mirrorless and the other is a Entry-Level Mirrorless and both of them are produced by Panasonic. There exists a crucial gap among the sensor resolutions of the S1H (24MP) and G10 (12MP) and the S1H (Full frame) and G10 (Four Thirds) feature different sensor size.

The S1H was introduced 9 years later than the G10 and that is a fairly serious gap as far as camera technology is concerned. The two cameras come with the identical body type (SLR-style mirrorless).

Before going through a full comparison, below is a quick overview of how the S1H grades against the G10 with regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Panasonic Lumix DC-S1H and Panasonic Lumix DMC-G10. The whole galleries are available at Panasonic S1H Gallery and Panasonic G10 Gallery.

For those who are intending to lug around your camera frequently, you will have to factor in its weight and size. The Panasonic S1H enjoys physical dimensions of 151mm x 114mm x 110mm (5.9" x 4.5" x 4.3") and a weight of 1052 grams (2.32 lbs) and the Panasonic G10 has specifications of 124mm x 90mm x 74mm (4.9" x 3.5" x 2.9") with a weight of 388 grams (0.86 lbs).

Always remember, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change based on the lens you have attached during that time. Underneath is the front view physical size comparison of the S1H and the G10.

Factoring in dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the S1H and G10 is 52 and 72 respectively.

Typically, it can be hard to picture the gap in sensor measurements simply by looking through technical specs. The graphic underneath may provide you a clearer sense of the sensor sizes in the S1H and G10.

As you can tell, each of these cameras have got different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The S1H using its larger sensor is going to make getting bokeh simpler and the Panasonic S1H will result in greater detail using its extra 12 Megapixels. Greater resolution will allow you to crop photos much more aggressively. The more recent S1H should have a benefit in sensor technology.
