LUMIX S9

It keeps the price down so they can target a budget segment, first time buyers, or people using it as a second camera. Every manufacturer doesn't have to cover every segment of the market. The S9 at this point is unmatched value for someone wanting a full frame hybrid especially if they lean more to

I personally wouldn’t want fixed lens. The S9 has huge potential and I’m sure Panasonic will make it even better with the S9ii. I’d rather they take inspiration from the GX series. It needs a grip!

Matt from Lumix recently stated the camera has far exceeded their expectations in terms of sales. It’s a really popular item for them. I got one myself recently, mainly to use as a EDC for video and to be able to take the occasional higher quality picture. Background: I started my Lumix journey with

The GH7 is the best hybrid MFT-camera on the market if you look at the features. It has 25MP, the best hand held high res and pretty good DR for stills. It has a video performance that is better than most other cameras in the price range. It is an extremely reliable work horse for people who need to

Seriously. The reviews on the camera were devastating. If you consider all the other releases from other camera brands with less features and even higher price tags, it's crazy how much hate lumix gets from creators. I've only done 2 video projects on the S9 and I really liked it too. I didn't know

Regarding overheating... which is a very silly thing to talk about in a photo-centric camera. I've filmed for 20+ minutes in open gate on a very hot day in japan for my next video. We all filmed our talking head bits on the L10 on event day, maybe like 5 min takes at a time, and everyone was absolut

If you decide to buy a camera, I would go for some which would be easy to carry around, so you wouldn’t be annoyed by carrying the extra weight. Fo example I love my lumix s5 and nikon d7000 but I think twice whether I am willing to carry it around whole day with me while traveling. A good budget an

I feel like once you start getting into the realm of those specs + raw video, 4k240, 32bit float, XLR - you've somewhat left the need for having a compact handheld form factor because 90% of the time it's going to be rigged up, on set, with a team. At that point you might as well be using a box-styl

Had both Fuji and Lumix cameras in the past so not wedded to either company. The only thing the Lumix has going for it is the lens range for me. Other than that the X100VI gives you ibis, larger 40mp aps-c sensor, flash. They appear to be the same size roughly and the Lumix is coming out at roughly

It’s not as good as an S9 with a OIS lens but comparing it to the Canon V1 which also has just OIS it’s much better, there’s no wobbling in the corners and the camera also has Panasonic’s excellent e-stabilization as well. I’ll be sure to test the video more but from my first impressions I personall
