Panasonic GH5 II with Panasonic Lumix DC-S1R Overview

The sensor resolution of Lumix DC-S1R is greater than that of GH5 II. The difference of 27 MP is quite a lot. The more megapixels the camera has, the more detailed and clear the picture will be. The number of megapixels will also affect the maximum size of the photos, which then can be printed without loss of quality.
