Why is your camera so far away.cant see nothing

nice footage and editing bro! But is this legal? I really wanted to shoot this same thing but it's illegal here in Michigan to fly drone over the stadium during the game day

How did you replace the lens? Cause my got scratched too and I want to replace a new one.

Keep it up brother very good job!

Hi! Please tell me, if I put an autofocus aps-c lens on the S5ii, for example, sigma 30mm f1.4, can it be turned on in Full mode? Or will the camera not allow you to do this with an autofocus lens? It is clear that there will be a vignette. But after that, I want to select the High stabilization mode and the vignette should go away, and the total crop will be 1.4, not 1.4 crop on 1.5 crop.

This was by far the most fun photoshoot we've worked on.☺ I was extremely pleased by your creativity and artistic touch, you are far beyond amazing. Thank you so much!!🥰🤍

Should use a wider tool!

I've been seriously consider the S9 to pair with my Sigma 16-28 for Travel. My 16-28 and 28-70 lives on my S5 II for work but I need a "FUN" Camera at this point.

Great kit! Lumix S5ii is such an awesome camera.

Great Content Sir

Love it, thank you for sharing! I’m also tempted with the S9 😏

sick bike

Why i have like glue on connector? I can t remove them!? How can i do

I hear who it's made for and it has innovative features, for that price. Someone only concerned about creating content could purchase a DJI Pocket 3 creater kit for $600 and a used full frame camera and lense to take pictures. The price of it is an issue because of the features it lacks, not what's included. The features that it has, I don't think entry-level content creates, need, will use, or care about. Most photographers use an EVF and flash.

Why can't we hate a shitty camera like the S9 ?

Dope take on this camera Shells. This may be my 1st foray into LUMIX FF. M43 is my workhorse system of choice. But man this thing looks like fun

People are upset when something isn't made for them, incorrectly assuming that they are always the target audience.

I own a lot of Cameras 😂 I am having a time reading through all the comments from all these S9 Videos…. All personal comments about a person’s internal gripes. Bro DO NOT buy the Camera then, it’s not for you. But to have a 2 paragraph complaint session on something you claim you do want or need because it’s missing something you want 😂 come on people. The Internet really is a place for people to complain recklessly 😂

Panasonic did something for a market that isn’t being served right now, folks that want a small capable camera with a full frame sensor, without all the buttons and switches. I started my channel with a Panasonic HC-X1 camcorder, I liked the image it produced and now learning about their hybrids, I may end up getting one. I’m waiting to see what the new S1 series brings. I’ve shot Nikon for years with photography and tried Sony’s FX30 and A7R V, I prefer the screen on the A7R V and wished they had put that on the FX30 but the FX30’s active cooling made me keep it when I moved to the Z8, plus the ergonomics on the A7R V hurt my hand for prolonged use. I’m thinking the S9 could make it in my collection as a simple point and shoot, everyday use. I’m curious to see what other small lens Panasonic makes for it.

Ha. I want it as a back up full-frame for my SL2. All that glass gets a new friend. Done deal. Prolly better AF than the SL2, too.

Agree your comment about Gerald 😀(i think and hope it was Gerald hehehe)

I am using Leica SL with native lens OMG i hardly using it now too big and too heavy specially going out with family. Having smaller body and keeping most tough notch spec is good for me.

the hate comes mostly from obnoxious advertising strategies from Lumix AND influencers. I think people are getting tired of endlessly being sold a bill of goods and the influencers who people have trusted and made past decisions off seeing them switch to Lumix (mostly from Sony) to shill a new camera after a $7000-$10000 all expenses trip paid to Japan. That's the core of it, i'm 98% sure.

THE PRICE and it could have been

I love Panasonic cameras, but the S9 has me mystified. Panasonic made too many design concessions in an attempt to make a full-frame camera what it can never be, a small camera given of the size of the lenses it needs. The 26mm manual focus lens with a fixed aperture size of F8, which is needed to actually make the S9 appear to be a small form-factor camera, is a joke. If I put my Panasonic/Leica 15mm F1.7 on a M43 Gx9, I will have an auto focus camera with better low light performance and a shallower depth of field than the full frame S9. (Did I mention the GX9 has an EVF?) Panasonic, update the GX9 with a better EVF and screen, use the G9 M2 sensor with its improved IBIS and its new hybrid autofocus system, and then you will have a near-perfect small form-factor camera. Hard pass on the S9.

The very first camera i ever bought back in 2017 was an Olympus pen E-PL9. It has no viewfinder, no phase detect AF, no USB charging, no headphone jack and somehow I was still able to make it work for 3 whole years without ever having an ounce of expectation that it was supposed to be anything "more". I think people just need to manage their expectations. Some of these people are acting like they're taking it personally that the camera lacks this feature or that feature.

mechanical Shutter. That's all I ask for. I am okay with a slow sensor but lord not those leaning lines on my cernival photos please.

I don't use Panasonic. I use Canon day to day and hire Phase One for bigger jobs. Still, the S9 caught my attention and I don't understand the sudden rage. I suspect it's simply simple folk going tribal over their Fuji X100vi etc, which is funny given the hate the Leica guys rain down on that.

You can't use the S9 normally for still photo work without missing something...(mechanical shutter...electronic Hot shoe...etc)....But the main reason is Panasonic appears to have forsaken its M43 GX9 line....(along with OM dissing the Pen F line).....Cheers

Why are you swearing all the time? Does it make you feel a bit cool?

Electronic shutter only? Pay a little more to get a lot more.

There is nothing inherently wrong with this camera; it's a great option for its price. However, there are some puzzling choices, such as the F8 lens and the fact that the other lenses are large, compromising the camera's compact nature etc...but no camera out here is perfect! The main issue lies not with the camera itself, but with Panasonic's approach and practices. If Panasonic is aiming to create a new segment of cameras, they should have engaged a different group of content creators to review it during its release in Japan. By choosing well-established, high-level reviewers from TH-cam to evaluate what is essentially an entry-level camera, they invited professional-level criticism. Consequently due to that, the S9 got heavily compared to Panasonic's own S5II models, making the S9 seem subpar and a poor value in comparison, despite the S5II being a more professional consumer product. Panasonic should have had the professionals review the S5II(which they did) and let entry-level content creators, who are the actual target audience for the S9, review the S9 in Japan. Those are the individuals they should have flown to Japan for the launch. That would have created a difference and avoided the whole S5II comparisons and make this camera feel lackluster This practice of having everyone release videos of the same camera simultaneously after its release, just to bank of the influence of these large creators, only underscores how stale tech reviews on youtube have become.

I was gonna make a video but you’re pretty much nailing everything I’m thinking in my head 😅 I’ll say one thing: if someone creates a small lens like that new 26mm f8 but make it a f2 with autofocus, it’s gg fam.

New segment for cameras? A7C/ZV-E1 was here few years ago. Problem it's not with camera but with the pricing - you have 15 min 4k 😅 It's not for content creators but it's all about money.

I love the compact size, definitely something I’d pick up for easy travel creator content. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on it.☺️

I like it, just not a video guy

🔥✊🏿🔥🔥🔥✊🏿🔥

I looked at the specs, I don't see a use for this. f you buy this, it seriously limits what you can do, and there aren't cheap upgrades. I am a photographer, I am enrolled in a TAFE course. There's not enough camera here to complete the course. If you are videoing interviews, perhaps you will want to roll the camera for 30 minutes and more. If you start as a beginner and buy this camera, you get a rubbish lens, so you need something more. I think most beginners should start with a decent phone.

Because most the YT folks are a tad pretentious? 🤔 and the manufacturers use them and stroke their ego.

Other gripe I have about the S9 is, why is it Full Frame? Wouldn't Micro Four Thirds make way more sense for what this is, how it's meant to be used? They could have made an updated Lumix GM1, which still has a cult following ten years after.

The viewfinder thing… Yeah, I shoot with my phone and no viewfinder-and then struggle to see what the heck I'm even pointing it at, when I'm outdoors in the sunlight. I tolerate that because the phone is always in my pocket. I can even tolerate that from the Ricoh GR because it slips into a pocket. The S9 won't fit in anyone's pocket. It's a Big Boy camera, and some of us expect more from that.

You’ve just talked about video capability in your justification at the start of the video. Us who are interested in photography and not content creation are frustrated because it doesn’t have an EVF, no mechanical shutter and no hot shoe. If Panasonic had just done that we’d be all over it. It’s probably great for video, I have no idea. But it’s another case of a camera company being nearly there but just either doing incremental updates rather than giving us what we want, or getting it nearly right but still missing something which is always just over the horizon. Apple do the same.

It is going to challenge current shoot & share market, smart phones

Hi - what's the IBIS like on it, is it S5 standard. Plus I hear a 18 - 40 kit lens is coming - I find that very useful for my work.

It's not for me, but it's a cool camera and will suit plenty of people. A lot of the controversy is about the influencers flown to Japan with the pressure of a lifting embargo to rapidly release content on it. Almost all of them cited the 4k30p 15 minute clip limit as being a compromise for the small build. Now many of them have the camera home and have more time, it turns out that the 15min 4k and 20min HD clip limits aren't entirely about thermal management. I've seen a few shooting back to back clips and overheating at 4k30 kicks in typically at over an hour. So why not a 30 or 45min clip limit. It's looking like the clip limit for HD might be entirely unnecessary if it's about cooling. That press event release cycle isn't unique to Lumix though. I think a lot of the push back this time is maybe something to do with the number of TH-camrs who were flown to Japan. For people who watch a lot of camera related content on TH-cam, suggested videos went a bit nuts with video after video of people walking around Kyoto with an S9. Having said that though, the same thing happened with the Sony A9 III launch and the internet didn't melt down. Maybe it was the number of TH-camrs talking about their expenses being paid to travel to Japan that put people off (which is important to disclose). Maybe it's a lesson to all manufacturers to not involve international trips with expenses when inviting TH-camrs to a launch event?

Well we all know this Ytuber thing is mostly a fraternity and about Copy Cat Artist. Far too many commenters that Blank up to the bigger Channels and the Big Channels that think they are ALL That when they really aren't. So when a bigger channel goes on a crybaby rant about not getting invited and or how Panasonic is supposed more punitive then their Mom and DAD, SONY, then things tend to get out of hand. Then that channel and even smaller ones even complain about FREE trips not being Free. Okay, then don't go, I don't need to hear them crying a RIVER. Plenty of up and coming photographers who would be more then willing to take their place. From what I have seen so far, the S9 is far from a Trash Camera, but there are certainly TRASH yTubers stating otherwise. Why all of sudden these yTuber has decided to SINGLE out Panasonic, Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.

I’m intrigued by the S9 Would have liked a hot shoe though and the option for an EVF attachment. It will be received better from the photography enthusiasts once there’s a few nice pancake primes available

That Leica “already been done” shit is what makes me have doubts about l mount. I have no doubt that the l - mount alliance is a cartel where they withhold features on rotation. I’m a sigma fp user who almost decided to switch to this s9, but I can see they’ve nerfed the s9 so that it doesn’t beat the s5. Sony is even worse… they have their cinema cams which get the exclusive raw video and ability to turn off noise reduction. Looks like Nikon z6iii is my next big purchase and I just hold onto my fp

Thank you Shelly, an attitude of gratitude and you’re right on the money that we have little to complain about regarding this camera or what Panasonic has been building of late. I do have an S9 on order and expect to use it for a lot of BTS and personal projects. For instance I keep thinking it will be wild to have such a compact tool during location scouting. The perfect way to not only gather some angles and shooting ideas but with the app you can also start playing with different looks on the fly. I will think of it the same way a painter might think of the sketch book they carry around, testing colors and ideas before executing the big painting. Between the small size and the Lab app, it’s a camera begging to be used in new and exciting ways by all kinds of content people. Let’s have fun again folks instead of taking every camera release with such ridiculous seriousness.

It's good to see people who think by themselves and are no sheeps!
