What a camera!
Why the 5% doubt?
Using multishot should fine when you're using long exposures and already blurring things.
In camera HDR? Focus stacking? Intervalometer? Bulb timer? Time lapse?
James Popsys it really is amazing
Hey James, really like your video style. Have watched a few of your videos and subscribed. This review was good fun and informative. My last video was a review of my GH5 and watching your review for this Panasonic has inspired me to up my game in getting out and about for review purposes. If you ever want to do a video together I would love too, check out my Mavic Pro videos it would be great fun. 😎
Great video James and I love the aesthetic of it. What camera body/lens combo did you shoot it with?
This camera is still relevant in 22. James updated as he prints large etc, but for most situations, the g9 does the job. The high res mode in mode 2 deals with movement great too.
Been literally watching through your whole channel today and I have ordered the G9 already, so this is purely for entertainment. Keep doing your thing mate, really enjoy your stuff 👐
Thanks mate!
Moving up in the world James, panasonic sending you review units and all! Been subscribed since day one and I'm stoked to see you getting some recognition from panasonic. You deserve it, keep up the awesome work!
I don't even need to buy a camera anymore, but your videos are just so much fun to watch.
kungpaogao same i just love his videos
Great review. I am an Olympus user (EM1) and the only weakness in the camera compared to my Canon kit was the continuous / tracking AF. I know the MkII has improved (as obviously has the G9) so the last real weakness of MFT compared to DSLR's seems to have been cured. And the choice of two OEM lens sources is great. Keep the videos coming.
You're one of the few photography channels that I look forward to seeing videos from. Another entertaining video and great review! Panasonic seems to have knocked it out of the park with the G9!
That's so awesome to hear, thank you!
I’ve been using my g9 as my only camera for TH-cam for the past 2 weeks. It’s a fantastic camera that I can’t believe is as good as it is for the price.
How is the autofocus?
@@joshdiditt Yes, the dfd, is amazing fast and accurate, faster and more accurate than the phase type AF in low light with large aperture lenses. For stills, it nails focus all the time. And for stuff like BIF and wildlife, this camera is amazing. For video, depending on the lens, it will be good or not so good. The new LUMIX lenses version II work amazingly well for video and AF. And even better for manual focus.
Your channel are so good. Like top notch quality. It’s so entertaining, a little bit biased(but in a good way) and a total joy to watch!
Dude, you should get a price for doing the most amusing and authentical reviews on YT. That's the kind of information I need - all that technical "in-depth" reviews are just boring and not really helpful, exept you're a pixel peeper. Thanks for 18 minutes NOT wasting my time!
so possibly the next camera for you too aki? ;D
Thanks mate!
YES!.. haven't even watched it yet but I've been waiting for this one!!!! Watching it now.....
Great video James. I'm totally with you. Love mine too. For me it's the great view finder and the image stabilisation. Managed to take sharp night shots up to 1 second! Incredible!
Niiiiice :)
Depth by defocus means what it sounds like. It's a fast system but it works by doing the "hunting" and "seeking" that annoy the hell out of people. It goes through the focus range to discover the correct point. So it will hunt a lot. In continuous autofocus when filming video, this causes the rapid "pulsing" that annoys people so much. The ideal for video would be phase detect. For stills, depth by defocus is faster but almost unusable for continuous video focus. It's essentially the exact same system as the GH5 with some tweaks. It's one of the major flaws of the Panasonic M4/3 range for video. Light sensitivity and megapixel counts being the others. Some would argue the lack of full frame but that is a totally subjective thing. I'd love to upgrade my GX80 to a G9. It's the camera I'd buy right now. I'm reasonably invested in the lenses and familiar with the menu systems and ergonomics.
I appreciate your laid-back communication style, James. Thank you for talking about the ruggedness of the camera. Most reviewers never mention this important issue.
As a TH-camr, Peter McKinnon wishes that he was as funny as James Popsys. Nice vid as always James. I wouldn't give you any "flack" for it. I expect your subscriptions will explode this year.
Thanks Greg, that's super kind :)
Great review, I've had my G9 for a couple of weeks now and it's awesome. Love it.
2 years later... i just bought a G9. Still learning how to use it, but so far I am loving it. Fabulous camera, feels good in the hand. I still have my Canon 1Dx, but have sold my pro zooms and teles to fund the MFT move. Keeping the macros and tilt/shift to use with a speedbooster. After the 1Dx, the G9 feels tiny :) The only thing I miss is the voice recording for notes about photographs (if it can do that, someone please tell me). I love the tiny lenses, especially the long teles. I love the lens choices including being able to adapt specialty lenses. And I especially love the 6K/4K Photo. It is the best implementation of applying electronic solutions to photographic problems that I am aware of. Pulling an 18MP still from a video feed is brilliant. My 1Dx has an 18MP sensor. It is plenty high enough resolution for paid work. I love that I have higher depth of field for macro, and focus stacking is the icing on the cake. I am loving MFT, and the G9 is still a great camera in 2021. Love it.
Hi James, I currently use an old cannon camcorder to shoot my TH-cam videos. It involves me sticking it on a tripod pressing record and then off a go with my golf tutorial.
Do you have any suggestions on what camera I should invest in next. I’ve heard loads about the GH5 but didn’t know whether that could be overkill.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated
Firstly, congrats to both of you! Secondly the looking back when out and about tip is bang on, especially if you're on a circular walk! You'll never know what you might miss.
Brought mine home yesterday and absolutely LOVE IT! I'm blown away by the build quality.
I don't mind the video record button where it is. It means I will have to make a conscious decision to activate it.
On my little Sony NEX-7 I was constantly bumping the video record button accidentally and recording unwanted clips.
There are so many features with the G9 that it's a bit of a learning curve but I look forward to putting it through its paces
The one challenge I am having is figuring out how to get the GPS working with my iPhone. In the Panasonic Image App Geotagging remains greyed out. ;-(. But so far, that's the only challenge I am having.
Keep up the great content. Cheers!
Enjoy Mike! I'm not sure about the GPS but I'll let you know if I stumble across the answer :)
Thanks. I fixed it, but I'm not quite sure what I did. In my iPhone under Privacy>>Location Services I went to the Panasonic Image App and changed the permission from "Allow When Using App" to "Always Allow". Nothing happened. I then went on a walk, used up my camera battery, pulled it out for a recharge, put it back in and the Bluetooth GPS option is now working. Even when I set it to "Allow When Using App".
I'm not questioning it. It's some sort of Voodoo. ;-)
I think I'm going to look at the G9 and compare it with the Canon M5.
I've already decided against the Sony A6500 (too many issues for me to feel confident using).
Thanks for sharing your experiences and honest opinions about the G9 James.
I will be renting the G9 right after the Canon.
Thanks for the info. I have a GH5 and a G85 for some video work at the office, and needed a good stills camera. I wanted to stay in the micro 4/3 environment for lens compatibility, but I didn't know if the G9 would be significantly better than getting another G85...but it looks like that may be the case. Excellent review.
Cheers Curt!
Awesome info James! You’ve convinced me that the G9 is the way to go for me!
Thanks buddy! :)
I'm addicted to your channel, James! :D Keep it up!
You're not alone. :-)
Very nice review!
I have dropped my GF1 all over Europe, it looks a bit wounded,
but it has never let me down. A keeper, bought a second one to
accomplish my GX7! Regards Ulf
One of the best reviews of this camera I have seen. Thank you for the honest disclaimers, it's very appreciated. :)
HiRes works well with long-time exposure - gives quite typical effects even with moving objects in the scene. Not perfect, but it extends the range of use. (Well, I tested it with Olympus cameras, and I guess it might work the same with the G9 …)
There's certainly a place for techy reviews with regurgitated specs, but your review and channel for that matter is a breath of fresh air. "Yeah, it's a little bit sharper - I don't know how useful that is..." LOL. Brilliant. Keep up the great content.
As has been said you’re a welcome change from most other guys doing reviews, very funny to watch and good relevant information. I’ve been learning photography on a Panasonic DMC FZ20, it’s nearly 20yrs old but still a cracking camera all be it a little low on the pixel count. I’ve been thinking of getting a Nikon DSLR but since coming across your vids I’m almost convinced this G9 is the way to go!
Nice and fun review which is in line with my own experience. I got my camera last year in december and as an early buyer I received the battery grip for free. An incredibly nice combo to work with when using larger lenses. In fact I liked the camera so much that I decided to ditch all my full frame gear. I feel relieved by the loss in weight I had to carry around. So far no regrets and actually amazed about how good the results are. Far better than I expected even in low light. Sure the full frame wins in the noise department but the difference is easily manageable. O, and when shooting video set the function selector to video. In that case you can use the normal shutter button to start en stop recording in stead of the oddly placed record button. Cheers.
Still on the fence between the GH5 and G9. I'll be using the camera for both stills and video, perhaps 50/50. The G9 recording time limit is a bummer but the skin-tone and 6.5 stops IBIS are big pluses. Been stuck on that fence for months now. Maybe the Lumix S1/S1r will be out before I make up my mind and then it's a 3-way decision. 😎🙃
Same here... 😉
There is a hack that you can do to the g9 to unlock its time limit recording, even there is a hack to the g7 also. Look it up here on youtube. I did it to my g9 and it works just as normal. I havent shoot longer than 30 mins 4k60fps with it but the camera wasnt not over heating or acts abnormal. Oh,. And i also have the gh5, been using it for almost 2 yr and i love it. Got the g9 3 days ago for mainly photo camera and also a backup for my gh5
Love your sense of humour...well done as usual. I am a new owner of a Lumix G85 and former Canon shooter.
Great video James, love your stuff. Keep them coming....
Thanks Patrick :)
1. You're hilarious. Love your commentary. 2. I have a GH4 that I primarily use for video (because it struggles with stills). Do you think the video is comparable to a GH5? I'd like to just buy one camera. Not have one for stills and one for video. It SEEMS like the G9 could do both? Maybe?????
Saw the sunglasses at the beginning, so have to ask... I take it the viewfinder works perfectly fine with polarized sunglasses? ^_^
Also lovely review - love how it's just general, in use stuff that's actually important to people, not someone reading off a spec sheet!
Thank you! And yep no issues with the sunnies!
Excellent review, interesting bit of kit, as I have this in the mix for my next camera - alongside the Leica X, the M, and perhaps a D500... just depends on what takes my fancy when I get there with my saving..
Oh and ta for no slippers.. lol.
Great video! I have the G85 and I love it. I don't like the autofocus at all, but in everything else it's a beast. (Also, depth by defocus technology is in the g85 too)
Thanks! I think the Depth by defocus is a newer version in the G9, I should've said that :)
James! I just traded my Canon gear for the G9 and lenses because of you. I’m positive I’ll never look back. ❤
Absolutely love this Chanel . Its the first sub i check as soon as i log on and the without doubt the best new photography Chanel on TH-cam .keep it up
Great vlog James I’m a canon shooter but just love your vids thanks mate
Cheers buddy!
I must say, I have the Rode VMP and the GH5 and I have had the same audio issues all the time..... I got the Rode VMP for a trip to New Zealand and the mic has never really worked on the GH5, super frustrating.... I get the same silence that you been getting so If you figure out what the deal is please post about it!
Loved the review my dude !!..... I'm rooting for the G9 also as am planning to start a photo/video biz this year and am looking for a compliment to my GH5.....
Lovely review - the g9 looks tremendous ☺️ I have a question that has nothing to do with the g9... That is quite random lmao but I'm just really curious. How do you pronounce your second name?!
I am clearly not James, but I believe I have heard him pronounce his name as "pop-sis". BTW, also love your channel!
Good review, a proper, practical, user review. I think the G9 is a m43 Nikon, it feels and works so much like a Nikon dslr. This is good. A useful video because I'm going to be thinking hard before the Photo Show, about whether to get a D750 and keep using my Nikon lenses, or pull the trigger on the change over to m43 (which I've used for years as a back up/leisure kit) and make the G9 my main camera. Very tempted, so tired of carrying big heavy kit for work...
Entertaining review James, normally I can't sit through reviews but sticking with this one. My wife and I are both Lumix Ambassadors, and moved over years ago when the GH4 came out. Haven't worked with the G9, but loving the new GH5S. Looking forward to working with the G9 while live shooting with models in the Lumix booth at WPPI in Vegas and getting to put it through the paces. Exciting times in M43!
James, you rock! The color on the opening sequences is totally mind blowing. And, all that other nice stuff the folks say about you is well sort of true. Keep going man.. Anthony a happy subscriber.
Great video, Peak District looks beautiful- might have to had it to my to-visit list in 2018
Yeah I can't wait to explore more :)
Just ordered mine. Excited!! Coming from a G7.
Love you review style - great humility, and keeping things on point without getting too technical - well done :)
hello James ... I need your help, I own the GX7 and G85 / G81 and I use Nikon D7200 ... I want to change nikon for G9 to keep a system ... you think it's a real improvement over the G85 that I already have ? ... adding it to my team will provide something better than the D7200? Thank you
3 years later, my G9 has aged well. Although I've since purchased a Nikon Z6 ii. But when I do pick this camera up, I'm still amazed by it. It's a great travel camera.
Excellent analysis with witty comments. Was that that lucky Mrs in the video? Look forward to more reviews!
I agree with the other comments about your style. It is a useful way of reviewing gear. And you opened my eyes about the "little detail", that the equivalence also goes backwards; that when you shoot iso 6400 f/2,8 in fullframe poor light, it´s only necessary to shoot iso 3200 f/1,4, so the IQ is almost the same. I still have my fullframe and a GX8, but "forgets" the fullframe more and more often, because I can carry much more micro4/3-gear without getting my neck og back spoiled. I´m so hooked on the G9, and it might end up with that.
Hope to get mine in April, but as I work for Panasonic I have to wait until it appears on the staff website 😉
Ahh nice perk Derek, it's a cracking camera!
In your video where you talk about the announcement of the G9, you mentioned Fujifilm. Well, after watching this review video a few months back (and because I used to shoot with Olympus in the early days of M43) I have decided to go back to M43 and ordered a G9. I will be selling my Fujifilm gear..... and will end up getting a GX9 for a street/travel camera. Buying a GX85 not too long ago made me realize why I loved shooting with M43 all those years ago, only now they are even better. Oh, and I enjoy watching all of your videos. They make me homesick for the UK, so thanks for that..... Watching your content has resulted in me spending money and wanting to move back to the UK. My life is a real mess now. :-)
Great job. Love your patter. There are so many self important knobs on YT doing reviews. You are not that guy my friend. I have subscribed and look forward to your next vid. I travel to your neck of the woods several times a year from over 8000 km away and wish I was only travelling 25 miles to get there. I have ordered a G9 to see if I can justify keeping it over my D850 to lesson my load. Great job! Thanks Mark
Never. Stop.
You dropped FF for a lighter setup... and you get a G9? Interesting. You should compare it to the Olympus E-M1 mk2. G9 is like the Olympus, still oriented camera, with video capabilities I guess that's why the button is placed in an odd position.
Yeah that's the obvious competitor, and the lenses are so light that the body size doesn't matter :)
Agree with you, this camera have a lot of things in common with em1 mk2
I had the E-M1 but found it too small for my liking. I now have the G9 and I like it much better in terms of size and ergonomics. But it's all down to personal preferences.
The new cameras in this year are really great! I love my g9 as well for how it is. No one camera is perfect but if you know how to use it and work around some minor issues, you can produce good content!
Hi James. Great vid, as always. Quick question though, why aren’t you using the Fuji xt 2, apparently it is a great camera for the still photographer. Or is it that you are looking for a camera that can do both, videos and photos? I am struggling between g9 and xt 2. maybe someone has an interesting view on it?
Yeah looking for a camera that does both, and I love the stabilisation :)
Love your channel James. Got this camera a month ago. Wow brilliant camera. Thanks for sharing buddy keep up the good work. Top man. 👍👍👍👍👍
Love your video and your personality, great job ! Keep doing mate.
Mine just came in the mail today. Excited.
James, I too have the G85 (we talked before briefly about the timelapse on it) and probably should've gotten the G9 so I could share my micro 4/3 lenses with it. Instead, I got the Sony A7 III, and wow the lenses are big. Anyway, the 1080p120 is blowing me away, so the G9 should be even better with 1080p180 so that might be fun to play around with. I'll be in Normandy in about a week to give it a good test, I can't fit the G85 in my bag so it's Sony only for this trip. Risky to take a new camera I know nothing about on a big trip (I'm normally US based), but I'm hoping it'll be a good compromise between still images and video, rather than trying to pack both my Nikon D800 and G85 into the same camera bag. Anyway, great review, most G9 reviews are heavily video focused even though it was intended to appeal to stills photographers so I appreciate your perspective.
I think the Rode camera shotgun is flappy crap (does sound good when not broken). Sennheiser or Shure lenshopper are much better alternatives and DON'T use those wretched 9volt batteries. Very entertaining 'review'.
Thank you sir! Yeah I'm fed up with the Rode, it's off for repair but I don't hold out much hope :(
I think this is the best m4/3 camera for work.
The mean reason for me, is the little LCD on top.
Can't live without.
Why are these removed with most newer camera's?
Hi James! Love your content! Just wondering: On what autofocus settings do you film in your studio? Keep it up!
As they are all saying... great video James. Thanks. I only started to look into this camera 2 weeks ago. I am now just about to change from a 3100 grams Canon 7D Mkii + Sigma 150 - 600 to a 1600 grams Panasonic G9 + Panasonic 100 - 400. Bliss.
I'm late to this party but great review, James! 👌
Paul 😎
I do think the fuji xt2 would have been a better choice, but you like what you like 😀
Love your delivery mate, cracking video!
At 13:50 I was struck by the difference in how the colours are so different over the 3 cameras, have you any idea which camera recorded the closest to the true colours? Or is that a stupid question?
Picking mine up this week along with the 100-400. Thank you for the great review. BTW, great music! Smooth jazz & Sarah Smile. Who are the artists?
what's wrong with the Rode? probably the cord. as for the camera...you mentioned that it's larger than your G85, but i'd like to know how it compares with a DSLR like your D750? nice vid, cheers!
Great Review :-)
I think with it's dual card slots it is a great upgrade for anyone who makes their living with it.
For a hobbist like me the added Features are not worth the price (though it is justified).
As for the mic:
The 23€ Takstar mic is pretty much at the same level as the Røde at a fraction of the price (actually beating it in some tests), so if your Røde is broken I can recomend it.
Cheers from Germany
Love the dual card slots on my GH5, I use one slot for saving videos and the other slot for stills. if one of my 128GB cards fills, theres no faffing changing cards it automatically saves data where there is space
Nice tip, I'll take a look at that thanks mate!
Nice tip, I'll take a look at that thanks mate!
James Popsys sure thing :-)
Rhode micro I like better than Tacstar or pro
I love your presentation-style. Thanks for your video
Back in 2002 did waterfowl field assistant work in rice fields in Arkansas. That was from January to March and the birds will do more eye catching behavior related to courtship then. But they may only do it certain times during the day if recall it correctly. So feeding, courtship, flying around happens dawn dusk. They rest on the water at night. Not totally passionate birder, so may have forgotten. We did use night vision which was pretty cool. Nothing strange happens at night nothing at all, like deer walking on hind legs ;) Really like G9 for "studio" and maybe catching quick expressions during public events. Nice for wildlife, sports option.
Great and helpful review, thanks.
I'm soooorely tempted, but I don't think I can quite justify the expense for what seems like a fairly modest upgrade from the G80. There are occasions when I yearn for more dynamic range and a bit more resolution, but they're so rare it's not worth forking out £2k minus whatever I could get from selling the G80. Doesn't stop me wanting it though...
Good video :) Thanks for reviewing - your way - the G9! One thing tho, could you be a bit more aware about the changing sound level over your video? As a french follower, I listen really carefully so - I don't mind for jump scares and other surprising sound effects, but - I'm loosing my ears each time...
Still love your channel, don't get me wrong :) Just wanted you to know that.
Here's a sort of feedback on your content ;) Good stuff! Keep it up! And keep an ear on your sound level!
I’ve had and played with my G9 for a few months now and love it with my only real complaint being that the shutter release has a little 2 much of a hair trigger
Would like to see LOW light and high ISO comparison, since i shoot indoor sport, would love to see how it compares to the Nikon D750 and the New Sony A7III
I just shot a video with the Lumix G7 and it's still good! Great video by the way
Am looking to upgrade. Still on the fence. G9 or Sony 7 iii. Full frame in low light and faster lens may swing to Sony. I own a g7 and love it.
What did you choose? I have both and I'm actually considering a second g9 for a multi camera video setup.
Hi James: I'm looking to switch to Panasonic G series because of issues with weight of gear, and also because of the features of the cameras (G80 or G9 is the probable choice).
One of my main interests is sports photography. Have you tried it again since for pulling stills shots from the 6K video? If so, I would love to hear what you think of them.
For photographing golfers, this facility seems a godsend as you can put the shutter to silent AND start recording on the golfer's backswing - which, as any pro sports photographer will tell you, is an absolute no-no when taking stills normally. You have to time the first shutter click to fire after impact otherwise you're likely to be frogmarched off the course. Thanks. Love your work. Chris S.
Great vid as always James. What is the red and black Peak Design thingy hanging from your G9 ?
Thanks - they're the attachments for the strap :)
Thanks - they're the attachments for the strap :)
Oh dear, you just made me £35 poorer. Again !!! Last time you had something nice was the Peak Design Everyday backpack which set me back over £200 !!! Fantastic backpack though
Hi James, I think Ive watched this review at least 5 times and its still just as amusing and informative, in that very British way. One question for you. Now that you've had the camera for a while, do you find that you can achieve the same image quality and tack sharpness that you did with your Nikon's? It's my one concern about the setup and it will be a big investment for me, so I want to get it right.
Being more of a photo shooter than a video shooter, have you considered looking into Olympus EM1 II? I don't own either, but in my experience I have always preferred Olympus over Panasonic for photos (for video, it's the opposite).
Hi James, great video... Love your real world approach. Quick question, I having recently sold my gear (older Nikon D-90) I am presently camera less, and want to take the plunge into a mirrorless system. Im wondering which camera would be better for me. The G85 or the G9 and I should mention the new Sony A7lll just came out and everyone is crowing about the new FF beast, I am tempted but not sold having never shot with FF before.. But for me I really enjoy the Panasonic ergonomics and shooting experience especially the fully articulating touch screen, and smaller form factor, lenses etc. However I did not care for the IQ of my older G7, especially the colors, but have heard the the G85 and more so the G9 have really improved color rendition and IQ (is that true?) I am torn as to a direction to take. Knowing what you know which camera / System and lenses would you recommend? FYI my budget is around $3,500. Thank in advance.
Great video! How is the dynamic range? I do a lot of B&W; I assume its really good. Thanks much and love your videos and humor!
Great video. Two things.
Did you find Barbara?
Did you manage to escape the Demogorgon? ;)
ha, negative on both - it's terrifying me!
James Popsys I watch most of it during my commute. Sadly I made lots of people around me jump when I did.
Hope all is well. Steve. Nice video , funny and not too serious but helpful too.
RIGHT NOW! Cool video buddy, food for thought!
Well done ! Excellent performance !
Beautiful camera but shame you didn't manage to shoot birds in flight. I'm curious to see how the small sensor would handle fast shutter with subsequent high ISO in real life shooting. Maybe another video?
Next time :)
I'm considering this camera as an upgrade to my GX8. Have been somewhat disappointed with the ISO performance, so wait with bated breath for that vid'.
You should shoot all your hi-res shots in the US; we don't have lorries here. ;)
Top tip :)
James Popsys I try to help where I can. ;)
I can't decide between the a7iii or the Lumix G9 It is soooo hard. !!!!!
Tough one :)
Thanks for this, man. Question though, have you figured out how to AF off the camera body vs. off the LCD screen? Is there a way to set that feature on the actual shutter button? Im referring to shooting selfie type videos btw. Again, thanks for being you and inspiring me to make videos. Im still new to TH-cam and have sooo much to learn.
thank you for your reviews! I really really like the G9 - my favourite camera - but still not sure if Micro 4/3 is "good enough" for me and I can live with the 4:3 raw format. Maybe I listened to too much Full Frame guys ...
Doing similar photography than you (often daylight when hiking) so theoretically it should be good :)
But Nikon Z6 is also nice and not too much weight (Sony A7III with Tamron lenses too) ... hard decision ... will watch more of your videos!
Hey James, first off I want to tell you how much I enjoy your videos!
Secondly, I’m a fellow MFT user (and lover :) but i’ve recently sold both my GH4 and my G7 to upgrade each camera. I had decided to switch to a Sony A7iii solely for the purpose of better auto focus. I’m a hybrid shooter and most of the videos that you see on my channel are shot in a vlogging style fashion, but I also do professional photography with my production company. The Sony is a beautiful camera, but I don’t enjoy using it the way I loved using both my Panasonic‘s previously. Do you feel with the newest firmware update the G9‘s auto focus can be sufficient for video?
If you take a look at the videos on my channel you will see the style that I shoot in for reference. I’d like to sell the Sony and get back into MFT by way of a G9 and/ or GH5
Thanks in advance!
Adam
Ditches Full Frame Cameras because of weight, carries the same Full Frame Camera with 2 Micro 4/3 cameras for shooting landscapes.
