For a long time, Panasonic has had a reputation of producing very good small format video cameras and stills cameras that offer a great deal of power (especially for videographers) to make up for their relatively small Micro Four Thirds sensor format. That changed in 2018 with the announcement of the full frame Lumix S series, and in 2019 the Lumix S1 and S1R hit the market – and later in the year they are joined by the extraordinary Lumix S1H.

So let’s take a look at Panasonic’s amazing 2019, month by month, as the year unfolds.
