According to the latest rumors, Panasonic is gearing up for a major product camera announcement in April 2025. The information comes from a reliable SAR YT channel. It is expected to be a direct competitor of the Sony FX3 camera, featuring the same compact body style without an electronic viewfinder. The news is not limited to this camera—based on past registrations done by Panasonic, three more cameras are expected to arrive from Panasonic in the next few months.
Confirmed Information: What We Know So Far
- Panasonic’s next camera is coming in April 2025.
- The upcoming camera is a full-frame L-mount camera designed specifically for videographers and professional cinematographers.
- It will not include an electronic viewfinder. The design is plain and simple, similar to the Sony FX3 camera, but Panasonic also has a box-style cinema camera. I doubt whether they are preparing for their next box-style camera announcement.
Let’s Talk About Some Unconfirmed Information
- The sensor is the same as the one seen in the Nikon Z6 Mark III camera—a partially stacked 24-megapixel CMOS sensor.
- The source also mentioned that instead of a 26MP partially stacked sensor, it can also use a Sony-manufactured full-frame type CMOS sensor of 24MP resolution, providing faster readout speed to minimize rolling shutter issues.
The sensor details are unconfirmed at this moment; however, we will update this portion as soon as we get the latest information related to the same.

It’s Not a Panasonic S1H II Camera
It has been very clearly mentioned that the upcoming camera is not a Panasonic S1H Mark II camera. Yes, it is coming, and it is expected to arrive later this year, but the April announcement is not the S1H.
It has been explicitly mentioned that three new Panasonic cameras are coming, and they are expected to arrive soon. Some of them may even appear before summer. Just like the next camera announcement in April, based on industry insights, between April and July 2025, we will have one more fixed-lens compact camera from Panasonic. Although the exact name remains unclear, it may be a true successor to the Panasonic LX100 Mark II camera.
Now, due to a huge surge in demand, the Panasonic S1R Mark II camera, which has been announced recently, is facing shipping delays. However, even in this situation, Panasonic is ready to announce new products one after another without any delay.
