    The Panasonic GX9: A Timeless Gem in 2024
    In the rapidly evolving world of digital photography, staying relevant and competitive is a formidable challenge for camera manufacturers. Yet, amidst the ever-changing landscape of imaging technology, certain cameras stand the test of time, proving their worth long after their initial release. One such example is the Panasonic GX9, a compact and versatile mirrorless camera that continues to shine brightly in 2024.
    Compact Design, Powerful Performance:
    The Panasonic GX9, first introduced in 2018, captured the hearts of photography enthusiasts with its compact form factor and impressive performance. Despite its diminutive size, the GX9 packs a powerful punch, featuring a 20.3-megapixel Micro Four Thirds sensor coupled with Panasonic's advanced Venus Engine image processor. This combination delivers stunning image quality with rich colors, sharp details, and impressive dynamic range.

    Advanced Imaging Capabilities
    In addition to its impressive sensor and processor, the GX9 boasts a range of advanced imaging capabilities that make it a formidable tool for photographers of all levels. From its 5-axis Dual I.S. (Image Stabilization) system that ensures crisp, blur-free images even in low light conditions, to its high-speed burst shooting mode that captures fast-moving subjects with ease, the GX9 is designed to excel in any shooting scenario.
    Creative Freedom:
    Creativity knows no bounds with the Panasonic GX9. With a wide array of customizable shooting modes, creative filters, and advanced shooting features such as 4K Photo and Focus Stacking, photographers have the freedom to explore their artistic vision and push the boundaries of their creativity.
    Connectivity and Convenience:
    In today's interconnected world, seamless connectivity is essential for modern photographers. The GX9 doesn't disappoint, offering built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity that allows for easy sharing of images and remote camera control via a smartphone or tablet. Additionally, the camera's tilting touchscreen LCD makes it a breeze to navigate menus, compose shots from various angles, and review images on the go.
    Timeless Appeal:
    Despite being several years old, the Panasonic GX9 continues to garner praise and admiration from photographers around the world. Its winning combination of compact design, powerful performance, versatility, and advanced features ensures that it remains a relevant and compelling option for photographers seeking a capable and portable camera in 2024 and beyond.

    I got the camera but I have trouble shooting with the viewfinder that beside being too small actually is not color-correct. Or for that matter, exposure correct. Maybe therés a setting for the viewfinder? Who knows. But the LCD on the back is good and easier to use and judge exposure and color on. Still, a charming camera that is fun to bring along.

    4 months on from this video being made and was contemplating this camera but I have to be honest. It seems the battery for this one is not too popular in the shops here in the uk. It’s the only thing stopping me buying it. If I had the money to snap up a bunch of batteries straight away, I’d jump all over this camera.

      @@marcrodet4900 I had GX85 sold it and regret it. I was considering a RX100iii, Va and VII, what it stopped me from buying its that they will get dust in the sensor either after few months or few year, but eventually they will. So I bought a GX9 instead. never had dust problem with the GX85 and if I have with the GX9 I can clean the sensor my self like I do with the rest of my cameras.
      I had a budget for the Fuji X100VI but thinking about it now is a bit ridiculous price for a walk around camera that has the risk of getting dust in the sensor dow the road

    Managed to pick one up in 2021 June as a birthday gift for myself. Came with the kit lens, a pancake zoom and surprisingly the retailer offered an additional original spare battery. Was so happy I got one I silver and it’s Brand New.
    As I transited towards FF, I practically cleared all my M43 gears (Which I regret) but I still held onto my 17 f1.8 Oly lens. As my very first serious camera was actually a EM5II, that sentimental value made me held on to it.
    Even till today, I am still picking this camera up with the Pany 17 f1.8. A killer combo for everyday photos.
    Call me old school but I still prefer a camera over a smartphone camera.
    Now my library of Lumix/OM System/Olympus grew so much since my GX9 purchase and was happy that I didn’t truly left this platform.
    Made me realised it’s not about the sensor size, but the joy and experience of photography.

    Canon for work, but the GX9 for all the other stuff. Great daily carry-around camera. Wonderful image quality (even in low light), love the stabilisation, and I'm blown away by the Lumix universe. It's even got me looking at their FF bodies for work. On the negative, the camera isn't weather sealed (not great for winter here in Sweden). I gave up using back-button-focus as the buttons couldn't handle it. And if you rely on exposure compensation, this camera isn't great. Or rather, I've found the exposure compensation dial on my (new at point of purchase) camera was too stiff to use easily. Think clicks rather than a scroll. I shoot manual so it's not been a problem, but I'd definitely check to see how it works on other bodies if you an Aperture shooter.

    • @laurentyarp514
      @laurentyarp514 6 місяців тому +1

      Yes, the exposure compensation wheel is way too stiff. It has been quite a disapointment for me too. Fortunately you can easily reprogram the back dial to work as an exposure compensation dial. The official exp comp dial is now purely decorative on my camera :)
      I've read similar complaint from other people on this channel, so its not only yours or mine.
      I've stopped thinking about that issue for long.

  • @Pavelwcp

    A good camera for street photography, so as not to confuse people around you with a big black camera (big black camera effect). It’s hardly noticeable in your hands, easy to carry, doesn’t take up much space, you can almost always take it with you not only on trips, but also on any walk in the park or in the city, or anywhere else at all! But the camera of the second version should be technically at a higher level than the first version. In this case, it can serve as a more realistic alternative to the main camera, and not a modest addition to it! I know that many enthusiast photographers would like to have a small but high-tech camera, understanding the problems of the technical limitations of small bodies, but still much closer in characteristics to the G9 and G9II cameras, with well-thought-out ergonomics, and with a capacious battery, which is very necessary for a comfortable feeling of sufficient battery charge when traveling and for a more comfortable grip.
    Also important: Updating the fleet of optics (especially miniature ones) for MFT cameras. Not just cosmetic! And taking into account modern requirements and user requests. For users, the quality of the entire system, and not just its individual components, is very important.

    Just wanted to thanks for this and other recent reviews of this camera and the way you did them
    Being a guy who started learning when ISO was a film choice. Never had an issue finding a theme or subject though.
    Then stopped photography really, young kids and other work … then later went to action video for vlogs etc around outdoor expeditions I got into.
    Then eventually came back to photos recently, I’m sort of learning again and a bit overwhelmed with the stuff on there that I probably don’t want tbh.
    Anyway, I won’t be running expositions any time soon but wanted something better than an iPhone 15 etc for actual photos so I just bought a used body and 3 lens options for less than the iPhone 15
    I have to be honest, this camera is more capable than I am just now but what a thing it is … and everyone misses the point a bit sometimes …
    Yeah we all want to be better but we also want doable fun doing it. This camera makes it possible at half the price of the Fuji x100vi and with 3 top end interchangeable lens.
    I’ve some work to do to get intuitive with it and your help is appreciated… anyway, thanks

    I bought the 12mm Summilux for my mint silver GX8 now. This combo is so bombastic, I love it. It almost looks like a Leica and you have the weather sealing. If I find a mint GX9 I will buy it too and the 20mm 1.7 pancake, I think, or the 9mm or 15mm. The 12mm belongs to my GX8 I think.

    I've had gx7, gx8, gx80, and a gx9 in the past. It is easy to say I'm a fan of the design of these cameras, but the gx9's exposure compensation dial is too stiff. I assigned it to one of the function control dials. It's also a shame they ditched the weather sealing of the gx8 and the much superior viewfinder. My wish list to Panasonic would be a weather sealed gx80, with the fantastic IBIS, mechanical shutter, 20mp sensor of a gx9, and viewfinder of the gx8. Size-wise the gx8 also was perfectly fine for me, so I don't mind a slightly larger body if it means we'd get weather sealing and a larger viewfinder back. In terms of looks, the gx7 with the 20mm f1.7ii was great (IMO better than the gx9 and pen-f), but not high on priorities for me. Although, it did also feel a bit more comfortable in the hands than the others. High end video features would also be unnecessary for me, so cutting back on those to make the device cheaper would be okay by me too. Throw in some new, small, affordable, weather sealed primes and they'd be onto a real winner for me. Unless, of course, Olympus get there first with a pen-f ii

    nice video. I love the GX9 too. but not with the 100-400mm. The G9 is ideal for that. The GX9 is an exceptional camera for me. It complements the G9 perfectly. I don't even like street photography that much, but it can also do nature and landscapes. For me, her specialty is macro. With this display and the angle viewfinder, it has enormous advantages. it's just fun with it. And don't forget the internal flash. yes, exactly. that's great. especially because you can use it very well indirectly in the room. I like this camera a lot, like the G9 and S1 too.
    The G9 with the 100-400mm + the GX9 with the 12-60 2.8 + accessories fit into a Lowepro Zoom 55 AW II bag. And that is a considerable advantage. Depending on the application. 🙂
