Latest S1ii rumours

Panasonic also kind of teased something on there Lumix Instagram account about three days ago:


It's rather unusual to make a post about two very old models, that are at the end of there life span, when it's not about the successors.

That is a very interesting post. The S1R isn’t just old. It’s defunct. It’s discontinued. I cannot buy one here new. I only ever see them used, and the reseller links off the Lumix official website have been inactive for years.

Why would they post a picture hyping a product they don’t even sell anymore?
 
My first thought on reading

Here's to another year of pushing creative boundaries with the LUMIX S1 & S1R

was that they've seen the rumours and are telling us not to get too excited just yet because the new cameras won't be ready for another 12 months. :confused:

Yes, it's weird. On Panasonic Japan's website they have a summary of their cameras, split by G (m43) and S models. The only S models they list are the S5ii/x and the S9.
 
Andrea from L-rumors shared a video message on his YouTube channel where he's talking more about the second camera that will be announced after the S1Rii or along with it. According to his sources will be very competitive in what it can do and also in price. It seems that his sources are very positive about it. He still doesn't share what it will be. But I think S1II would be a good guess.

The S1R and S1H are still shown on the Australian Panasonic website: https://www.panasonic.com/au/consumer/lumix-cameras-video-cameras/lumix-cameras/lumix-s-cameras.html

I've seen this before, i.e. some markets still have older models advertised and available.
