Lusting for a gx9 successor from Panasonic. m43 sensor would mean less overheating, space for an evf, popup flash, mechanical shutter and most importantly, awesome compact lenses portfolio. The S9 just doesn't make sense to me. The compactness is lost as soon as you attach a full frame lens to it.
The price is high for what it is knowing the recording caps are so low. Same time the color you got has almost sold me. I'd probably buy it if I held one though. The app excites me as ive barely had luck with Cannon or sony. Same time those apps worked once but as they get updated or don't they break I'm sure lumix app will be the same way. Price for a kit to sell for me should be 1500 not near 2k mark. It's just not there for what it is
I was NOT prepared for such fluent Japanese at 6:23! You're enactment of the reaction was also supper cool and funny! Great video of what looks to be a great camera. :)
If this camera had a rangefinder-like body with an EVF, there would've been no controversy around the whole japan trip debacle 'cause the whole internet would've been just gushing over the new full-frame X100V. Design matters: A full-frame X100V clone = "mad money" Mini S5M2 = "no one cares. who got free trips for what?"
"Professional features for non-professional cameras." This is probably the most appropriate statement for this camera I've heard since it's been announced. The grippers which are professionals and enthusiasts aspiring to be pros or wanna be pros are the ones gripping the most about the legit crippled features. But if we could reframe this as a consumer camera rather than the perfect camera, these crippled specs don't matter as much! As a photo enthusiast, tho, I hope they come out with a compact version that does have at least a small evf, mech shutter, and a hot shoe. As a Lumix shooter, we shouldn't have to be forced into the A7C line or Leica for a compact full frame body that suits our WANTS. I would happily pay more for the aforementioned specs.
Really digging this camera. Considering selling my OG S5 and Ricoh GRiii and combining the two in one small body with the S9 to pair with my S5ii. Would you make this move?
You know the problem with this video? I googled the prise and stopped watching. That's the problem with this video and all others for 4 years. This chanel got from - the MOST watched to the LEAST watched in my feed. This chanel is now for dudes with money that don't give an ef. I think Harris is the best example of money and success getting in the way of creativity. And it's sad. After almost 6 years of following Harris - unsub.
All my pro cameras over the years have been Panasonic. Yes the record limit sucks, but unless I am streaming an event I never shoot that long. So maybe this is my next camera? Open gate is awesome, price affordable, never use a hot shoe anymore, and I hade grading so the LUT feature is fire. Great meeting you BTW at NAB.
I agree with all your points as professional a content creator. I'd definitely pick up a S9 as a b-cam. Why? Well the ibis, it's not brilliant on my A7R5, plus the size. I do a lot of short on the spot interviews, and I'd like something a bit less intimidating. The price is to high, but that will come down. I'm happy at £1000 and £500 for a lens. There is zoom coming out for it, but it's a bit dark at 40mm at f6.3.
I just think it was an unfortunate launch for a pretty solid camera.The lens options that it launched with really didn't match the camera, all of the press controversy, and some of the missing features combined to something that didn't look all that appealing. It's sad because I think all of that distracted people from what this camera actually offers.
I’ve been shooting Panasonic since the GH5 first came out and I’m loving it. This was the best video on the S9 so far because it provided all the right context, the other reviews were so confusing. I’d only watched your channel for mic reviews previously, but looking forward to more of your thoughts on cameras
Just letting you know senpai, your discord link in invalid. And also have you heard or tried the software sheep chat? really think its a game changer and plus i need a tutorial haha thanks for the great content man
Thanks for the video. May I ask, for the hybrid zoom, does the raw file shows the image in hybrid zoom? For example I used hybrid zoom on the 28-200mm. So I assume at its maximum, the focal length will be equivalent to 600mm. Yes, the jpeg will show the 600mm image. But on raw? Will it show a 600mm image, or just the maximum focal length of the lens, which is 200mm? Thanks in advance.
LMAO Dustin running with it is FUNNY! LOL!!!! But damn, that stabilization is pretty good. And 6k OPEN GATE? I never heard of it but sounds really useful.
You ABSOLUTELY NAILED IT on who this camera is for. The people complaining about what they wanted it to have… it’s like come on! You know better than this, there is the S5 ii X that has everything you wish this had! It was very annoying. I shoot on all BMD cameras. I’m buying this for run and gun stuff though. It’s AMAZING!
Just like audio plugin's. Led lights and you can do pro photo's. 6K open gate is pro format. Use it and enjoy it ! Is your mic pro ? No but it sounds good ? Pro is marketing ploy ! If it looks good, it is good ! If it sounds good it is good ! Your customer's will never know the difference so there isn't a difference ! I shot a customer's picture with a top of the line Canon, the next year with a bottom of the line canon camera. I had a new iMac and the customer liked the bottom of the line camera shot ? Silver XT. Capture footage and show at a pro event ! Your Pro ! Problem solved !
I have actually never used a LUT directly on a camera... It feels like "a decision I don't want to make right now" kind of feature. What are your thoughts on this?
Yeah, when I know I’m shooting for UA-cam we usually shoot in LOG. It’s the stuff I want quickly for social media or for personal stuff that I slap a lut on. Makes life easy.
I get watch time is a must and what not, but leaving out key info like price in the beginning, and even just a link to said camera in the discription(how is this not the biggest OOF) just seems in poor taste. Striving for the high quality content with the massive growth but forgetting the old fundamentals. Not sure if it’s on Harris or editor/uploader but the quality control needs a boost. Yeah this camera cool, until 90% of people here see the price. Just sayin.
after watchin this vdo you influenced me to buy this tiny fullframe cam Could you recommend this for me ? And does it has versatile third party lens option?
Hey hey amazing video as usual love your stuff and ro honest out of the people doing videos on this you seem moat professional Soo I guess everones had to be on there best behaviour reviewing these cameras not to upset Panasonic in japan But no one is really talking about this banding under artificial light for more than a second in there videos and..... it's pretty SERIOUS side of the cameras that we really as an average consumer need to know before we spend quit a bit of money on a camera. Soo please please help me not make the wrong choice if I buy this as a Camera for shooting video of me Painting in my studio under artificial light is this thing going to be completely useless?? Big love T.
But why are professional thinking 6k is only for them? People really misunderstood the demographic for this camera! GenZ understands how technology works maybe faster than all those Pro UA-camrs from the SLR and DSLR era. And their muscle memories are routed in that era. As you so rightly mentioned 6K Open Gate remove the necessity to think in advance about vertical or horizontal delivery, and this is why this feature is there on that camera. Why should all new camera be for professional or me with my specific needs? If that was the case all camera would have been identical in features. This camera has been design for a specific demographic with specific needs which are not the pro UA-camrs in the Photo/Videos niche. This whole drama revealed the biases and how closed minded many of those so called pro UA-camrs in this niche are! And this is unfortunate.
I’ve spent the last two hours watching video after video after video and I feel like you are the only one who’s able to justify the choices Lumix made without downplaying or overhyping the changes. Like you actually seem to be the target audience/get what this camera was intended for.
G100 was released in such a mess, its a good b cam with log option and a good 4k/fhd capture that doesnt overheat, but the marketing . . It was not a vlog cam, but they had the bright idea to market it as such
@@victorsaavedra6595 g100 is such a good b cam, clear fhd , decent 4k , v-log for grading , small as heck and a decent pre-amp. Keep it and maybe buy another lumix cam to compliment it.
🍡🍙😊 Hello I'm new here. Stumbled across your channel I was interested in your comparison of microphones, then I watched the one about web cams... Let's see what else I'll be learning or at least get some refreshing input, a new angle to look at streaming gear.
I have this camera. Do you think there is a way to connect an external flash? Wireless? Or waiting for the firmware update? In the menu there isn't any options about it. Please help
7:15 - THIS!!! THIS IS THE OPINION THAT I WAS EXPECTING FROM Y'ALL REVIEWERS!!! DANG! I mean, it's simple! It's NOT made for pro photographers/videographers. It's NOT the S9's intended demography of audience. It's for content creators TRANSITIONING from smartphone-level production who wants to step up their production quality EASIER, exactly like what Panasonic intended. OF COURSE it has big smartphone-friendly features, OF COURSE it remove features that made a professional camera a professional camera. But the fact that Panasonic nailed this camera for it's intended use & audience, simplifying the S5 Mark II while STILL have the option to unlock MOST of the professional features that the pro-lines, and the fact that they CAN maximize it further with those facts earlier, AND THAT PRICETAG that rivals current top-line APS-C cameras, this could be Panasonic's most important camera in Lumix's history in a long time, and yes it's NOT a perfect camera. I'm a Sony user, and I WISH the ZV-E1 were treated like this. What's wrong with having fun as a content creator? The S9 is a lot more fun than many of my Sony gears, and I think that's what the purpose of this camera; to make photo & video-taking fun again. And that's okay.
Mechanical shutter is a must , I wasted a whole bunch of pictures not knowing about that in the beginging taking puctures in a car.. give me a em5 II full frame !! I love to freeze moving subjects , so this cam is useless ..
Love your content , cant afford any of them tho, i know you got a closet full of cameras. 👀 send me the crappiest one so i can up my quality from an iPhone 🙏
I had it running into a capture card for an hour and a half and then it over heated. I was using 6k, though so I’m not sure how long it would last in 1080p
Eh? I bought a Lumix G7, a PANASONIC camera in 2015 which shot 4K30 video, that was 9 years ago. Not sure what the point of the Sony 1080p camera reference was.
🚀🚀🚀 Great way to explain who this camera is potentially for! I’m a long time Panasonic LUMIX Micro 4/3 user and still on the fence to jump to LUMIX full frame (I did leave Canon full frame for Lumix years ago for what I did for photo/video). After watching this it makes sense to use it for content creation and not expect all the pro features that so many professionals make look for. Looks like a good content creating machine for everyday use. I want to try one even more now 🙌
As we are in process of buying a home in Japan as well and I know this is NOT intent of your video, how do you address a lot of the people in Japan getting tired of foreigners with cameras going everywhere without respect?
I was with you until the promo for Mr. Undone. Pulling a Jerry Maguire only works in the movies, and I expect that video essay will be his undoing with quite a few other camera makers. I know I will not watch him again.
Nobody cares what you'll watch again... who's gonna miss you? And he's going to be busier than ever... watch. Gerald was spot on and so is Senpai with the Gerald plug.
It should work with a dummy battery, but it won't give you unlimited recording. The recording limit is there because the sensor overheats when recording 4K or over. IIRC, some of the older models can do unlimited recording.
Many Thai UA-camrs who came to Japan also said that they liked S9 when using it more than when it was showed in the paper. They said that it might be a reason why they were all invited to Japan for forcing to use it; not just looking at it for only the specification. However, many of them also accepted that they will use it more for travel / relaxed activities; not for professional works. Lastly, many Thai youtuber who came to Japan mentioned that they did not get any money for reviewing S9; just plane ticket, hotel, transportstion, and some meals. I think the problem with S9 is professional photo / video takers expected it to be more for them. They criticized many negative points without thinking that non-pro users use it or not. Currently, I use GX85 and I really interested in S9. I took video with GX85 that has no jacks for microphone and headphones. I never use EVF. I never do color grading coz I'm too lazy to record it in that white tone to color it later. As a fans who take video of idol / actress from an event, I look for a camera that can help me post 4K video clips of idol as fast as possible (That's why I like 4K Lite) and that camera must have a good stabilisation since using high camera stand or gimbal is too obvious and might not be used in many public locations.
Hi Harris Heller, thanks for your video.We'd like to discuss the possibility of working with you. What should we do? Can we reach you through your email?

Me gusta la cámara, tampoco veo el drama. Gerald is done for me.
Fuji’s H2S has 6.2K Opengate and more options regarding ProRes/RAW. It’s APS-C but in video, meh, doesn’t matter. I own the H2S and Lumix S5IIX.. Lumix has better focus, and markers are great.. but the Fuji is def no slouch.
A ton of folks that have bigger budgets then the Average Consumers always behaving as if certain cameras are only good for non professional use. Well clearly those Bigger Budgets folks mostly aren't Pros. Also, the real Definition of what is or isn't a PRO is blurred. I doubt so called Pros even really know what Professional means concerning Cameras.
Right when, and just after, I listened to you talking about the Insta360 scandal, three notifications popped up for YT videos about the Insta360 Go S2. 😂 📸
Can I use it in a wedding shoot ? If I am stop the record before 15min and record again, that scenario this camera overheat ? Or G9ii pickup is a good choice for me ?
Oh good I was worried I was dumb not knowing where to find LUTs haha I’m being honest, finding stuff like that I have no idea what sites I can trust for those sorts of things. A video on effects and other plugins perhaps? (Paid/free)
I wouldn't say at all, that 2000 bucks is a beginner price... sure, there are much more expensive cameras with much more pro stuff out there, but for someone new, who wants to step into photography or videography to see if its someting to fall in love with, 2000 bucks is a huge amount of money. also, there is absolutely no need for a beginner to start with a fullframe camera. if I would be a beginner, I would go for a used sony a6000 or so, which is about 300 bucks since its old but its absolutely more than enough to begin with.
Hi thanks for the review, I like your style. Two things I'd like to ask. 1: is there any frame rate that open gate can be used that can be 50/60p or above. 2: what is the X zoom in video and is there degradation of the video. Thanks again 👍🏻
Couldnt have said better about the camera market positioning, if all the other reviewers are half as mature as you are, thered be no drama. Granted a lot of them are just jumping on the hate bandwagon to get some clicks.
Seems like it could've been a great photo specific camera. I'd rather have a hot shoe and mechanical shutter than 6k open gate and IBIS. Take some of the juice from fuji and leica
I am considering going away from Canon once I have more money, and the Lumix really looks promising How is it for streaming though? If I want to recorde videos for UA-cam content, can I attach it directly to the PC and use it as cam or what? :)
How many of you are lusting after a camera right now? If so, which one? Or is it just me.. 😐 always..
Far to poor for this but the lust is overflowing
Lusting for a gx9 successor from Panasonic.
m43 sensor would mean less overheating, space for an evf, popup flash, mechanical shutter and most importantly, awesome compact lenses portfolio.
The S9 just doesn't make sense to me. The compactness is lost as soon as you attach a full frame lens to it.
S5ii sounds pretty nice for making videos and the s9 sounds really nice for family trips like you said
Sony ZV E10 or something similar as a nicer Webcam. Am not so much until photography.
The price is high for what it is knowing the recording caps are so low. Same time the color you got has almost sold me. I'd probably buy it if I held one though.
The app excites me as ive barely had luck with Cannon or sony. Same time those apps worked once but as they get updated or don't they break I'm sure lumix app will be the same way.
Price for a kit to sell for me should be 1500 not near 2k mark. It's just not there for what it is

An also the possibility to include flash

please lumix see this! 2nd'd
The problem is that it’s priced like a pro camera. Should be 600 bucks max.
My Fuji XS20 does 6K open gate. About the same price. No recording limit.
Good for you
Really digging this camera. Considering selling my OG S5 and Ricoh GRiii and combining the two in one small body with the S9 to pair with my S5ii. Would you make this move?

Skip to 6:53 near the end of the video - 10 minute record limit? - and you will see the problem. Who cares about “LUTs” for a 10 minute video.
Does this have an "always on" feature like the Sony so you could use it as a webcam?

After watching this it makes sense to use it for content creation and not expect all the pro features that so many professionals make look for. Looks like a good content creating machine for everyday use. I want to try one even more now 🙌
Bro your Japanese made my drop my phone. I’m Lebanese I’d love to send you a voice note to see if you can sound Lebanese.
I’m an hobbyist. How do use flash for night shots? Tnx
As we are in process of buying a home in Japan as well and I know this is NOT intent of your video, how do you address a lot of the people in Japan getting tired of foreigners with cameras going everywhere without respect?
It’s something I really had to be conscious of while I was there. Respect the culture.
Man... cameras are so expensive. I'll keep this one in mind if I'm ever in the market for one.
What camera strap are you using???
I was with you until the promo for Mr. Undone. Pulling a Jerry Maguire only works in the movies, and I expect that video essay will be his undoing with quite a few other camera makers. I know I will not watch him again.
Nobody cares what you'll watch again... who's gonna miss you? And he's going to be busier than ever... watch. Gerald was spot on and so is Senpai with the Gerald plug.
Will it work with a dummy battery for unlimited recording?
It should work with a dummy battery, but it won't give you unlimited recording. The recording limit is there because the sensor overheats when recording 4K or over.
IIRC, some of the older models can do unlimited recording.
It will literally shut down from overheating even used as a webcam into a capture card
@@user-le8ul4nr5t Thank you for this information and feedback. I appreciate it!
@@Carl-Camera Thank you for this information and feedback. I appreciate it! That’s unfortunate.
Many Thai UA-camrs who came to Japan also said that they liked S9 when using it more than when it was showed in the paper. They said that it might be a reason why they were all invited to Japan for forcing to use it; not just looking at it for only the specification.
However, many of them also accepted that they will use it more for travel / relaxed activities; not for professional works.
Lastly, many Thai youtuber who came to Japan mentioned that they did not get any money for reviewing S9; just plane ticket, hotel, transportstion, and some meals.
I think the problem with S9 is professional photo / video takers expected it to be more for them. They criticized many negative points without thinking that non-pro users use it or not.
Currently, I use GX85 and I really interested in S9. I took video with GX85 that has no jacks for microphone and headphones. I never use EVF. I never do color grading coz I'm too lazy to record it in that white tone to color it later. As a fans who take video of idol / actress from an event, I look for a camera that can help me post 4K video clips of idol as fast as possible (That's why I like 4K Lite) and that camera must have a good stabilisation since using high camera stand or gimbal is too obvious and might not be used in many public locations.
Im my opinion, Japan is a cheat code. You can shoot with a potato and still make a decent video.
P.S. - Nice job on your Japanese speaking.
Hi Harris Heller, thanks for your video.We'd like to discuss the possibility of working with you. What should we do? Can we reach you through your email?
Me gusta la cámara, tampoco veo el drama. Gerald is done for me.
Here is my fav emoji for engagement: 🎥
Great video by the way! 👊🏻🔥
This is Dustin🤫
@@Senpaiwtf
@@harrisheller I thought Dustin was a free editor 👀
That japanese skit caught me off guard😅
If it is not for proffesional, it should have built in flash
Wait Senpai you can speak Japanese! Sugoi!
I am waiting for a nice pancake lens, then I go for it.
Is that the small rig grip & the peak design hand strap?
Fuji’s H2S has 6.2K Opengate and more options regarding ProRes/RAW. It’s APS-C but in video, meh, doesn’t matter. I own the H2S and Lumix S5IIX.. Lumix has better focus, and markers are great.. but the Fuji is def no slouch.
Freaking glorious camera... I'm a pretty sony die hard... But this camera made me weak!
Cool AF!
Bardcore album when?
A ton of folks that have bigger budgets then the Average Consumers always behaving as if certain cameras are only good for non professional use. Well clearly those Bigger Budgets folks mostly aren't Pros. Also, the real Definition of what is or isn't a PRO is blurred. I doubt so called Pros even really know what Professional means concerning Cameras.
6k Open Gate = 4:2:0 colors
Great…such a badass new tech.
*In 10bit.* 6k downsampled in a 4k timeline has the same color information as 4:2:2.
Do you have a link for the lens?
Why are people saying 1800 is affordable to whooooo???
...compared to other video wise non-barebones FF cameras...
Right when, and just after, I listened to you talking about the Insta360 scandal, three notifications popped up for YT videos about the Insta360 Go S2. 😂 📸
Can I use it in a wedding shoot ? If I am stop the record before 15min and record again, that scenario this camera overheat ? Or G9ii pickup is a good choice for me ?
Oh good I was worried I was dumb not knowing where to find LUTs haha I’m being honest, finding stuff like that I have no idea what sites I can trust for those sorts of things. A video on effects and other plugins perhaps? (Paid/free)
Hi, is that peak design strap ?
I wouldn't say at all, that 2000 bucks is a beginner price... sure, there are much more expensive cameras with much more pro stuff out there, but for someone new, who wants to step into photography or videography to see if its someting to fall in love with, 2000 bucks is a huge amount of money. also, there is absolutely no need for a beginner to start with a fullframe camera. if I would be a beginner, I would go for a used sony a6000 or so, which is about 300 bucks since its old but its absolutely more than enough to begin with.
There is no talking on the train.
Hi thanks for the review, I like your style. Two things I'd like to ask. 1: is there any frame rate that open gate can be used that can be 50/60p or above. 2: what is the X zoom in video and is there degradation of the video.
Thanks again 👍🏻
Couldnt have said better about the camera market positioning, if all the other reviewers are half as mature as you are, thered be no drama. Granted a lot of them are just jumping on the hate bandwagon to get some clicks.
Happy pride month 🎉
Seems like it could've been a great photo specific camera. I'd rather have a hot shoe and mechanical shutter than 6k open gate and IBIS. Take some of the juice from fuji and leica
Nice! your Japanese sounded great. (but what do I know? I don't any Japanese.)
very nice camera, but a massive price tag £1,800
Can you share the baseplate and wrist strap brand you are using with the G9. Love your take on the camera. Thanks
The baseplate is from SmallRig. The strap is my own frankenstein'd creation from a Peak Design micro clutch and part of the included camera strap.
@@Senpai Looks sick af!
No EVF has not been an issue. Damn impressive little camera though
Great analysis !!
I need your SM7B/SM7dB Settings
I think he has one already
I am considering going away from Canon once I have more money, and the Lumix really looks promising
How is it for streaming though? If I want to recorde videos for UA-cam content, can I attach it directly to the PC and use it as cam or what? :)
E N G A G E M E N T 💙
Where did you get that mini grip attached to the small rig module! So cool!
Please answer @alexhorning, I’m looking for a grip that small too.
It’s not something you can buy, it’s a grip he made himself with some pieces he had. He replied to another comment asking what you both are asking
@@bigman8733 Ah, thanks for that! Gonna have to DIY my own!
Hey Harris! I I am shooting with a beefy Gimbal what large/heavier lens would you recommend?

Always lusting after fun near gear, currently trying to get into a full frame Sony but this is tempting....
