    Glad I found this video. I just bought my first M43 camera, a GX9, as a more travel-friendly substitute for my bigger and heavier Canon 7D and 6D Mark II. And the upcoming trip is to...Rome.

    The GX9 is actually the successor of the GX80/85, which in turn was the successor of the GX7. In Japan they are named GX7 - GX7 mkII - GX7 mkIII. This should explain a lot.

    Have loved my GX7, and this really looks like a very logical upgrade. Hope the tilting EVF is lockable though. I hate the way the GX7 viewfinder is able to shift freely, which makes it catch easily on clothing etc.

    I like that it has tilting but not fully articulating screen. There are already several micro four thirds cameras with fully articulating. We didn't need another. For street shooting I much prefer quick up and down tilting. Looks like an excellent camera!

    The EVF has 2.7million dots. Is it the same one used in GX85, GX7? Also does it have 30min limit for video?

    This camera came out 3 years ago and now I've seen it as low as 600 new. Currently I shoot with the GX85 and I'm barely learning how the modes work lol. I was full Nikon and the Lumix was collecting dust. I'm now full mirrorless as I sold my last Nikon DSLR body.

    As a videographer this camera seems pretty great to me. I'm looking for a street photography camera that can also be my B-cam to go with my GH4 and this has very similar specs. No it doesn't have audio connections but I wouldn't ever try connecting anything to this anyway, just use an external recorder or record on GH4.

  • @TonyNC700S
    @TonyNC700S 6 років тому +1

    Thanks for the review and showing how it performs as a photo camera. I have a G7 which I use for photos only and was put off by the GX8 due to its size. I have been wanting internal stabilization for a while now to use with older lenses and my 25mm 1.7 and a smaller camera than a GX8 and this camera ticks all the boxes for me. I can see how those who do video are not too impressed but for me it looks great for what I want it for ....

  • @spamboli
    @spamboli 6 років тому +1

    if you view this as the upgrade to the gx8 you'll probably be disappointed with the missing features. but if you more rightly consider this as an upgrade to the gx85 - you'll be stoked by the improved finder, controls, & sensor. the gx9 is much closer to the gx85 is size & weight and bundled with the 12-60 f5.6 lens costs the same as the gx8 (body only).

    • @flyfishfotofan
      @flyfishfotofan 6 років тому

      spamboli I completely agree. Most of the physical features seem to be inherited from the GX80/85, with just the 20mp sensor and tilting feature of EVF coming from the G8. Since I am a huge GX80/85 fan, this comes as a fantastic upgrade and as you point out at a price so similar to what the GX80/85 was at offering.

    Love the shots Matt. I think I will end up buying the GX9 this year. It will be a great backup to my Em1II and G9. Most attractive, however, is the GX9's street design. I have really been waiting for a camera like this. In fact. I almost got a GX8 before the G9 was announced, but the G9's specs were too good for to pass it up.

  • @TestAndReview
    @TestAndReview 5 років тому

    Thanks, agree with most points you made. Still, hate the fact that it is not weather sealed and there's no mic input. That is going to be a deal breaker for many buyers. We used the camera for some 1000 images so far and it has been great for most of the time. I wonder how it will do for a vlogging camera.

    Thank you for your breif but well done review. I really am enjoying shooting with my fairly new GX9 and the Lumix Leica 15mm (30mm equivalent) lens. It is great and really perfect for "street photography". If you want a small, compact, light and versitle camera this GX9 is terrific.

    Great review, Matt has a wonderful delivery. And regarding the camera thank goodness Panasonic introduced the tilt screen as opposed to the flip out screen in the GX8...it is far quicker to use and far less obtrusive, well done Panasonic, this is a brilliant specialised street and documentary camera.

    Having the Gx7 and while I love it, I'm starting to think on upgrading, and this doesn't seems to be that much interesting... I rather buy the GX8 (that has mic input and HDMI clean output) now that it will be a lot more cheaper moving forward

  • @AndySnap
    @AndySnap 6 років тому +1

    Good video. As you say, this is the true successor to the GX7 in spec, which means that oddly, its a downgrade from the GX8 spec (weatherproofed, mic input...). This is really the GX80 replacement. The pro' spec' GX has gone, for now...

    @soundknight 6 років тому +1

    Although this is OBVIOUSLY a downgrade it doesn't matter, G85 users can upgrade to this, GX8 users can keep a great camera or upgrade to the G9.
    I must say, the images on DPReview of this camera look absolutely wonderful.
    The correct lineage of Lumix Cameras is: (GX series) GX1, G85, GX9 (Gseries) GX8, G9 - whats in a name afterwards?
    I will be keeping my GX8 which I absolutely love until they make a G9 in size closer to the GX8

      Mark Seath yes gx8 has articulated screen, but the video sucks, shaky. Gx9 much much better video maybe like gh5.

  • @Chilupiano
    @Chilupiano 6 років тому +18

    What a downgrade, the gx8 has weather sealing, mic imput, vlog style flip touch screen, very similar sensor...um..this is garbage. ...i think they did this so that ppl who were in the gx line would move to the g9.

    • @spamboli
      @spamboli 6 років тому +3

      maybe compared to the GX8, but it's sized and priced closer to the GX85 and weigh's less. this seems more like a gx85 mated with the sensor & controls from the gx8.

    @ShawnBrezny 6 років тому +2

    Nice video review. The GX9 looks to be a slight downgrade from the GX8 when it comes to video. I mean no headphone jack and flip out LCD screen kind of hurts it as a proper video camera. I am guessing Panasonic wants those interested in video to go to the GH5 or G85 route now. This GX9 camera seems more like a GX85 than a GX8 upgrade, so for now will be holding onto my more capable GX8. Peace!

  • @marc6652
    @marc6652 6 років тому

    You're looking for a better choice than the GX9, very less expensive, much better equipped ? Try the GX8... And with the money you save, buy a good lens : 25 f:1,4 Panasonic or 12-40 Olympus.
    And look at the 75 F/1.8 for portraits...

    @nimmicarlose8396 4 роки тому +2

    The EVF on this camera is disappointing and awful compared to the GX8. Definitely try before you buy. I got one and sold it a month later....I'll stick with my GX8 with mic input, weather sealing and a much better EVF. Surprised they didn't mention this on the review..I guess these reviews are just to sell cameras.

      You are absolutely right. Of late, there are just too many prople complaining about this kind of csmeras not having the right features for video. Well, this camera is just not design for serious videograhers. It is designed for still photgraphers especially street and travel photogrsphers. For videogrsphers, they can always choose the other models like the G85 or the GH5 or GH5s.

    @Jorcap 6 років тому

    Good review! But a downgrade from the GX8. The GX8 is a perfect allrounder, this is not, Gx8 has a 2.5mm imput for external audio, not a 3.5 but it can be fixed with an adapter. The gx9 has NONE. Like how is that an improvement? Weres the flip out screen? Why a tilt screen? The screen of the gx8 could be tilted in a way that you dont see it, so it keeps the screen protected from dust or scratchy surfaces. I can keep on going but I have made my point clear that I am dissapointed because the GX8 is such a great camera, it deserves a proper following up model
