    Thanks Shane to share your rational to go for the G9 II. In fact, after having seen your test on it, I was certain you'll adopt it... For the last three months I'm questionning myself to do the same. I mainly shoot videos and having a more reliable AFC speaks a lot to me.
    In 2022 your tutorial on the GH5 II helped me a lot (it was my first semi pro-camera experience and I had to master hundreds of new parameters of the menu). Hence if I switch to the G9 II, sure I'll use your new tutorial.

I'm sure it'll get easier after some time, but I'm already making a good use of what I've learned here. Huge thanks.

    Hi Shane, this video will be an invaluable resource for those new to Lumix and m43, you've done a great job at giving beginners enough information without overwhelming them.
    Did want to ask though - I regularly use the Ex Tele function on my G9, which is functionally similar to the Pixel/Pixel mode. I understand why you advised beginners to leave the Image Area at Full, but I wondered if you knew what the crop factor was of Pixel/Pixel vs Full readout? It's helpful to know how far I can potentially reach when doing wildlife video. Cheers

    Well done! Your instructions are very clear and helpful.
    I have a G9 and am considering whether the additional features of the G9II are worthwhile at current pricing. As you are aware, the street price for a G9 in Australia is about $1100 and the launch price of the new G9II is about $3k and higher than the S5II! I think I’ll wait a bit for prices to settle down a bit.
    Like many LUMIX fans, I’m also keen to see a GX9 Mark II with PDAF and would choose that over the G9II, if the GX9II’s functionality wasn’t too crippled on account of the body size.

    • @GeekyNerdyTechy
      @GeekyNerdyTechy  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I have a feeling the G9II sale price should be pretty good. I think when it comes to M43, they have to be pretty competitive. It'll be interesting to see how it goes. :)

    • @Democratiser
      @Democratiser 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@GeekyNerdyTechy Yes I was surprised the AUD pricing for the G9 II has been set so high. I agree Lumix pricing in Australia has traditionally been very fair, particularly when compared with some of its competitors such as Canon. Hopefully G9II pricing will fall and become normalised before too long.

    • @Verde88
      @Verde88 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@GeekyNerdyTechy Remember how much the GH6 costed just after the release.... Now I can see them sold on auction websites second hand but brand-new-ish condition for like 1000 bucks, also the shop price dropped huge! I visited a local camera store (not a chain) and they offered me the G9ii (when its here) for 1600 instead of 1899 which is the suggested price. So I really look at the G9ii as if it were 1500/1600$ (you just need to hunt for it, or just wait a couple of months). And its much less then the latest and greatest from Canon/Sony

    Hey, KUDOS, very informative video, the best on youtube. Could you provide some info about the compatibility of different lenses with the linear focus function? I think list on the internet are not very reliable, it would be nice to have some hands on experience. For example when you talk about the linear focus function you are actuality showing a non-leica lumix lens which AFAIK cant be used in this mode. Also, what about the Olympus lenses. would it work with my Oly 17mm 1.2 PRO?... Best regards and help again for your great work!

  • @JohnFelipo
    @JohnFelipo 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Fantastic video guide! Any info on what the HDMI output specs are? I assume it's at least the same 4K 60p 10-bit 4:2:2 output found on 90% of all recent Lumix cameras, but woud like to confirm this (I really doubt Panasonic crippled the HDMI output on purpose, but you never know)
    Dream is that eventually this camera could get the same BRAW output as the GH6, making it the perfect hybrid for me. I understand they might not do this since it's a "stills camera first", but Panasonic has a great track record with firmware upgrades and giving cameras more capabilities than the ones they launch with (original G9 was exactly like this vs the GH5). Thanks in advance!

    Many thanks Shane for this quick overview to get started. A year ago, I bought a GH5 M2. You had made a similar tutorial. Since it was the first time that I went into "semi pro camera world" it helped me a lot. Specially to allocate different fon button to desired functionalities.
    Now I'm thinking to move to the G9 ii. Three reasons : enhanced AFC, 4k 10 bit up to 100 fps and full compatibility with all lenses I already have.
    Question : it seems to me that there is less "fon button" on the G9 ii than on the GH5 ii. Am I correct ?

    • @GeekyNerdyTechy
      @GeekyNerdyTechy  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for the kind words. Yep, there's one less function button. The GH5II has a color profile button on the top you can map to just about anything, I think that's the only difference other than the actual body design.

    Excellent and extremely helpful information about the G9 II camera. Do you know if they are planning to add to the Lumix Sync app the fixture of exporting raw pictures to Mobil devices? Or when the IOS accept those raw pictures from the G9 II. On my first picture on my new g9 II that I took I was able to import that raw picture to my iPad ( only one). How this can be possible ? I love raw pictures , however I can’t transfers those into my Mobil devices. Thanks for your assistant ! Best from Puerto Rico and keep sharing your knowledge and experience with all of us.

    I'm thinking about upgrading from G80. Before I had G5, upgraded camera because of IBIS and weathersealing, never looked back, because there are many tiny improvements which are not obvious (buffer size, better touch screen, better colors in view finder, wifi remote control,...). But now I'm not so convinced, G80 is already 7 years old model, but I don't feel like it misses anything crucial. I have Fuji X100V and it may sound weird, but Panasonic seems to have almost no flaws (maybe battery capacity indicator feels like three bars 30% remaining, one bar

      This is a great camera for travel or handheld work especially thanks to the improved IBIS. There's no additional crops so that can come in really handy for a single lens setup. The look of the S5II is amazing for studio and regular frame rate modes. It's all up to your use case.

    Thanks for the great and detailed tutorial. I've got a question regarding the stabilisation setting when on a tripod, panning, or using a gimbal. Is the camera "smart enough" to work in the correct way? I've heard that the camera stabilisation can "fight" against the gimbal, or tries to keep the shot steady when panning, causing unwanted jumps in the image.

    I wanted to ask you if, regarding sound recording, the G9 ii has the exact same hardware as the s5 ii or the Gh6 or a new microphone.

How does the G9 ii perform in this regard?
