Lumix S1R and Lumix S1 specs and prices leaked

With an official announcement expected imminently, core specs and prices for the full-frame Lumix S1R and S1 have been leaked online. 

The Lumix S1R will be Panasonic's flagship full-frame model, and will feature a 47.3MP sensor without a low-pass filter. As we've reported, it will also have a high-resolution photo mode that captures 187MP (16,736 x 11,168 pixels) images.

The ISO has an extended range of 50-51,200 (with a native ISO ceiling of 25,600), while supporting this is a 5-axis image stabilization system with up to 5.5 steps and the ability to shoot 4K video at up to 60/50p. 

Burst shooting tops out at 9fps, but for continuous AF this is capped at 6fps, and as it's a Panasonic camera there's also a 6K photo mode that sees 30fps shooting, and a 4K photo mode at 60fps.

The viewfinder looks like it will have the highest resolution of any camera out there, at 5.76 million dots, while rumors suggest that the magnification can be adjusted from 0.78x to 0.74x or 0.7x – although we can't work out why you'd want to reduce the magnification. There's also a movable rear display (we're assuming this will offer touchscreen functionality) with a 2.1-million dot resolution. 

Weighing in at 898g and measuring 148.9 x 110.0 x 96.7mm, the Lumix S1R will be priced at £3,399 (about $4,370 or AU$6,150), or £4,199 (about $5,400 or AU$7,600) with the standard zoom kit lens.

Lumix S1 spec and prices

The Lumix S1 has a 24.2MP sensor, and like the S1R has a high-resolution mode, which in this case can produce 96MP (12,000 x 8,000 pixels) images. The ISO range is a bit broader than the S1R's, thanks no doubt to the less densely populated sensor, with an expanded range running from ISO50 to 204,800 (the maximum standard ISO is 51,200).

The body-only price is expected to be £2,199 (about $2,830 or AU$3,970), while the standard zoom kit will be £2,999 (about $3,850 or AU$5,420).

The future of Magic Leap's promising AR efforts dim after layoffs

The Magic Leap Two is now further away than ever, unfortunately. Today in a blog post the augmented reality pioneer announced major layoffs and has decided to cut up to half of its workforce, according to some reports. The original Magic Leap One was supposed to be one of the first mainstream augmented reality headsets when it launched in 2018, but a high price point and lack of interest from developers left the headset high and dry after launch. According to the blog post, Magic Leap says it will be focusing its efforts on enterprise solutions (a statement HTC has made recently as well) and shift its focus away from consumer technology… at least for the time being.  The company has been open about creating a second headset that would offer improved specs for some time, but how that work will now have to go forward without half of the team , according to some estimates, remains to be seen. Is the window closing on augmented reality?  Although it’s just one company, Magic...

Airship acquires SMS commerce company ReplyBuy

Airship is announcing that it has acquired mobile commerce startup ReplyBuy . The startup (which was a finalist at TechCrunch’s 1st and Future competition in 2016) works with customers like entertainment venues and professional and college sports teams to send messages and sell tickets to fans via SMS. It raised $4 million in funding from Sand Hill Angels, Kosinski Ventures, SEAG Ventures, Enspire Capital, MRTNZ Ventures and others, according to Crunchbase .
