LUMIX S9

I'm sorry but I feel like Panasonic is helpless. They swing and miss with everything since the GX85. I love what they are trying to do but this leaves so many questions. I also love Emily's videos, but she is a content creator, she raves about a camera like the OM-3, then a couple weeks after her "1

Actually, Fuji had huge price hikes over the years (I'm a fuji user), especially with their latest cameras like the X100VI and XE5, yet people are still buying them (Including me lol). You said Lumix wants to keep prices lower but L10 cost $1500 which is like only a hundred dollar less than the X100

I use my camera almost exclusively for family life. 10 bit video, reliable human tracking and good stabilization are the main things to look for in a hybrid dad cam. I wouldn’t recommend an OM-5 or GX9 for your use, because they both lack 2 out of the 3 things I mentioned above. I’ve owned an E-M10

This - better IBIS typically means a bigger unit. Modern sensors and processors are generating a lot more heat than predecessors, those burst speeds and higher megapixel faster frame rates contribute significantly but so do all the aids such as waveform. Similar with higher res and faster refresh EV

almost every camera aimed at photographers needs to have a viewfinder, in most situations not using a viewfinder just ruins the endire experience, its neither ergonomic/comfortable nor stable. its insane how many new caemras are coming out without viewfinders and how rare optional evfs are consideri

i agree that manual zoom would be more functional, but i can see why they did electronic zoom because it comes off as more 'premium,' which the $1500 point-and-shoot crowd will care about. the people buying this have money and will care more about how it feels to shoot with than enthusiast/pro-level

I'm sorry how does that have to do with anything I said though? I asked why Panasonic didn't have a premium retro camera for their FF lineup despite them releasing premium m43 cameras. I then mentioned other manufacturers including Fuji having premium retro models. FYI Fuji does have a premium retro

And smaller sensor should mean everything can be relatively smaller than larger formats, but that's not been the case in recent years. It's likely due to the new stacked sensor needing more heat dissipation regardless of how large said sensor is. Meanwhile Fuji and Sony are able to make newer camera

Common compliant. I'm hoping for an upgraded video 's7/s8' at some point bc the Canon 'v' series of cameras are really starting to look like video competitors to lumix. as is the ZR, though i'm sticking with the s9 at this point. the plasticky builds are getting annoying. om-3 supposedly did well.

I just bought a mint condition second hand S5II in Tokyo for 160k JPY or ~1000 USD and it’s such a great camera. The lowlight capabilities are insane, I’ve taken photos at 25k ISO and while there is some noise, it’s minimal and honestly quite aesthetically pleasing compared to the Rebel SL3 that I u
