The removal of the record limit is a total gamechanger in my opinion. I'm so glad that Panasonic listened to the feedback and implemented it so quickly - it shows they actually care about their consumers.
Amen! Completely agree, massive upgrade for the very first firmware update !
I have a pair of the S5II & X and a G9II. So I bought a S9 two weeks ago cause I wanted a “dad cam” that I can grab and go and just take pics for personal memories. Overall I really love it, it’s actually really fun to shoot with it. I’m even using it more than my G9II because of the ease of use with the LUTs with the Lab app. These updates are great for the entire line up of cameras.
An S9R for Hybrid Zoom would be low key clutch and I didn't even think about that. This update and lens is awesome and I reckon could be hidden gem for a compact full frame POV. Nice video mate
Wild I got told completely different colors😂 mint and pink as well. Also with Hybrid Zoom + High Stabilization you can get up to a 87mm crop 😉
I was going to mention the Hybrid Zoom crop, but decided not to! No way hahaha, Mint would be sick!
@@JoshCameron Imagine getting a professional artist coloring the white camera would be so sick!
Damn that Smokey White looking fancy. Great video brother!
Thanks bro! Good to hear from you!
This is amazing, now the S9 is in my shopping list, thanks for the video
Thanks for watching, Samuel! This update really does open the S9 up for many people :D
Excellent video Josh! I love how Lumix listen and improve the products over time
Agreed! Let's hope they add a shutter with the next firmware update🤣
@@JoshCameron 😂 imagine!
Seems like these features could have come out at launch no? Guess I'm confused why they released the S9 without these features in the first place... Glad to see the lumix lab support come to the s5ii...
I wish they'd give some love to the Lumix S1R. It's sad to see that "worse" cameras from Lumix have more functionality and the S1R getting no proper software updates
Josh is the new Smoky white color available for US region ? I see a preorder for the Pink and Mint green color but not white, could you let lumix know about this ? I’m instantly preordering the white version if it shows up.
Not sure if I'm late, but congratulations on getting engaged my guy!!
Thank you mate!
Thanx Josh, great vid again. Next week im going to Japan and I hope to pick up the s9 with the new 18-40
Enjoy your time in Japan mate, I absolutely love it there, one of my favourite countries!
The 18-40mm will be available on October 25.
There is “Lumix base Tokyo” in Tokyo. Enjoy Japan!
@@JoshCameron thanx Josh!
@@tomoflight Thank you for the info!! That’s going to be a close call! We are flying at 25 from Osaka 😅
Should of been available at launch Lumix is the video king, they know we’d wanted this.
So excited!!! I now love my S9 way more!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉
Me too! A really good update, and will make the S9 a great choice for those who need that longer recording time :)
Which means the critics that didn't like the S9 were right, it shouldn't have had all those restrictions. I still think the S5ii with the 20-60 is a way better deal than this with the new lens. Price needs to go down to 1200$ with the lens, and 999$ body only for it to make sense.
People who want a small camera aren’t looking at the S5ii
@@Metro6amso Panasonic expects us to pay the same price as the S5ii with at least 10 cut features just because there are people looking for smaller cameras?
@@DrWaSaBe People who want a brand new model at launch should expect to pay a premium. People who own the S9 are happy to pay the premium.
Those critics brought more attention and had a reason to talk about the camera. Now those same YT will make a new video about the camera brining attention to it again. Its great marketing
@Metro6am or the S9. No one with more than 2 brain cells pays £1500 on a S9.
Another delightful review.
Thanks!!!!
Just picked up a Lumix S9 w/ a Sigma 16-28mm f2.8 and I couldn’t be happier.
Panasonic please add a red boarder around screen when recording like Sony does and it’ll be perfect.
It’s in the settings, check out Josh’s video about customizing the S5.
It already does.
You can add it in the settings. Settings > Gear > Monitor/Display (Video) > Red REC Frame Indicator
@@waynealejo thanks just found it 👍🏽
@@prestonurvina thanks just found it 👍🏽
Nice overview, thank you Josh
I was kinda hoping for a S9R to be a "pro version" honestly:
with EVF, hot shoe, shutter and indeed highres
that said as an owner of the S5 OG, GH6 and a G100 i got hesitant with buying new anyway
Hope you'll keep us informed :)
If the s9 had a view finder it would be a must cop for me. I always prefer tiny cameras for small jobs and walk around shooting
Josh do you reckon the 18-40 will be good enough for commercial vertical content. I have a A7R5 and a Tamron 20-40, but really would like a backup camera and lens. I like the stabilisation on the S9 so thought it could be useful at 18mm for building and room push in shots, instead of carting a gimbal around
I think lumix was always going to do it. They knew form the start that YT didn't like the recording limit sit and would want it taken away. It gave them a reason to release a new FW update that would get YT talking about the camera again witch is what has done.
Would be awesome if it could auto frame the cropped 9:16 frame and keep the subject centered even if it moves.
From the early rumors, I was hoping the S9 would have the same 60mp sensor that my FPL has. It was a top of the line sensor over two years ago, so by now it should be available in something more affordable. Cool new lens, but I love shooting faster glass on these full frame sensors, IMO a budget minded new photographer would be better off buying a couple very inexpensive and compact prime lenses out of China.
Had they released the camera without the record limit alongside this 18-40 lens, it would have received a much better reception. At $1,800 for camera and lens, it's a much better value proposition. Hopefully they will learn from their launch mistakes.
Yes, this firmware update has completely changed my view of the device! I'll retract the shade I shot at it on release, good on Panasonic! Would like to know more about real world long recording and overheat, my personal case would be to run 4k25 as a static tripod.
Lens looks decent for what it is too.
Thanks for the video.
Can this digital zoom feature work with other lenses on the S9?
Any zoom lens that has electronic contacts. So 20-60 becomes 20-90 in 4K.
Wow, got rid of the main problem in one update. Selling my sony today 😄
Panasonic keeps hitting it out of the park , time to pick up the s9 then
I love it mate, you'll totally get it once you get one in your hands. Very useful little camera :)
@@JoshCameron I believe you , I already have an S5II and find it too bulky for everyday carry was gonna get a fuji but the shackles have come off the s9 !
Compact 2.8 pancake prime lenses (like the Sony range) for the S9 🤞
Im rocking the sigma 10-18 apsc 2.8 and I think that one is smaller and definitely stretches less. Why not shoot 2.8 smaller sensor and be able to pump 48fps and 60fps when needed maintaining the wide view z
Does Hybrid zoom work with Sigma lenses? I'd love them to make it work with primes.
Surely the new Viltrox 28mm f4.5 pancake is the lightest FF lens with autofocus ever made? It's 60g
Does this lens & body combo fit in your pocket?
your images are beautiful.
Thank you, that's very kind of you ☺️
I was infested in this camera for photography. I could get over the fact that there isn’t any EVF but no mechanical shutter and 12 bit RAW are deal breaker for me
Really cool!
Said this elsewhere on YT but I may have still owned my S9 if this lens had been available at launch.
I'm really quite disappointed with the announcement today. Great for S9 users, but for those with the advanced and more expensive models like the S5II don't get frames or the new AF features.
Likewise the GH7 has the newer AF modes but their photo centric G9II doesn't get these modes. Very frustrating.
This is tipping me closer into picking this little beast up 🤑
You should!!
It's a little beast! Can easily record all UA-cam content on this camera now :)
@@JoshCameron might have to get one as my permanent UA-cam cam at the studio
I really admire lumix for having the audacity to charge £519 for a variable aperture bog standard kit lens
Does it fix the major issues of not having active cooling? Or having no mechanical shutter? Or not having 12 bit raw? Or only having 1 card slot?, or of not having an evf? Or of not having a hot shoe? Or of not having a full size hdmi port? Or of being 50% overpriced?
Maybe we'll have to wait for the next firmware update to address those ridiculous shortcomings that the youtube panasonic shills forgot to mention!
im not seeing the white one at all all i can find is pink and mint
Why is everything always way cheaper in USA
They don’t include taxes in prices
now tell them to please add phase detect to 1080/60
I have an S9 and the AF works flawlessly in all frame rates. To me, it feels like phase detect works in 1080 60p.
no they'r not. S5II no PDAF ff FHD 50-60p.
Yeah still no evf. Give me a evf in a s9 ii I buy it immediately
You expected a firmware upgrade adding an EVF? :😊
@@markr041 no😂 but I hoped for the s5d to be sth new
There is no new FW yet
It'll be coming out very soon :)
@@JoshCameronOut now.
I was really hoping for a photography version of the S9
Rome wasn't built in a day😅
lfg
Nope! No hot shoe no money lol
Hot shoe from firmware upgrade?
