For example, if I am tracking my dog playing on the beach in the early morning and want to stop for a second and shoot the sunrise, on my Sony and Fujifilm I can tap the screens and switch the focus to the horizon, compose, shoot, and return to tracking the dog. To do that with the S1RII I had to first toggle off the subject tracking. It isn&#8217;t a huge hassle, nor is it a deal breaker, but it is a little head-scratching.<\/p>\n<p>The rest of the time, I found that the S1RII did a good job of tracking everything I asked it to. Oddly though, it has the hardest time with humans. Sometimes in a crowd of people, it would lose the subject, something that doesn&#8217;t usually happen in my testing of Nikon, Canon, and Sony cameras. While Panasonic&#8217;s autofocus system is definitely faster and more accurate than previous versions, it&#8217;s not flawless. I don&#8217;t find this a deal breaker at all (I still shoot many manual focus lenses), but it might be worth testing with a rental if you shoot a lot of sports or wildlife.<\/p>\n<h2>Image Quality<\/h2>\n<p>I&#8217;ve always liked Panasonic&#8217;s color rendition for its neutrality. It&#8217;s not warm, it&#8217;s not cool, it&#8217;s just about perfectly in the middle. The only place I saw this vary a bit with the S1RII is in skin tones on my kids, who looked a little pinkish in some lighting conditions, but otherwise I did not find any color rendering oddities. Dynamic range is very good. I was able to lift shadows in RAW files 2-3 stops without really even needing to deal with noise.<\/p>\n<div class=\"GalleryEmbedWrapper-llMpjF eNSLoK gallery-embed\">\n<hr class=\"GalleryEmbedHr-dXMdzM fCNcvb gallery-embed__hr\"\/><span class=\"GalleryEmbedSwipe-IABKO fajVEH\" style=\"touch-action:none\"\/><figcaption class=\"GalleryEmbedCaptionWrapper-eUYjyD cYOJII\">\n<p>Photograph: Scott Gilbertson<\/p>\n<p>Panasonic-SR1II-Sample-Imag_Street-Art_Photo-SOURCE-Scott-Gilbertson.jpg<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><hr class=\"GalleryEmbedHr-dXMdzM fCNcvb gallery-embed__hr\"\/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The S1RII features Panasonic&#8217;s latest phase-detection autofocus, which has much better subject recognition and tracking algorithms.
