This is great! Thank you for your thoughtfulness!
Sir what would be your pick between sony a7 iii and G9? I am a hobbyist and looking for a camera to take family pics and videos? Thanks in advance!
I just received my camera the 28th and hadn't read your review yet. It's a very useful review that helped me get started with the camera. And I must say my experiences with the camera so far completely conquer with yours. It's an addictive camera. I was in great doubt about getting this camera because it would mean stop using my full frame system that I used for years. I tried Sony A-series but I felt the same way you do. Not my cup of tea. Clearly designed by brilliant technicians, but not by photographers.
But his camera clearly is. It fits like a glove. I was a bit worried about the image quality. But again I was positively surprised. Yes, there is a bit more noise at high ISO's, but nothing terrible. And who cares. The image quality is very good and more than enough for me. And finally Panasonic got the color science right. I don't have to tweak the colors like I had to do with earlier Panasonic models. I'm a happy photographer. Thnx for the helpful review ... Oh, I just got rid of all my full frame gear ...
I just bought my G9, to replace the GH2 that I have had for a long time. This review is probably the very best I have encountered. I am very much looking forward to receiving it now. Thanks.
Brilliant. Best reviewer in Europe. Cannot agree more about the closing conclusion, for me Canon and Pana are the most fun and organic to use . An extension of us. They trashed 6dmarkii and when I saw the latest video from Jared Polin, filmed on it, I thought I never saw a better color and contrast in video from any dslr . But back to this, I think you are exaggerating when you say A9 "destroys " this in sensor. That used to be back in the days. Nowadays the best micro four thirds cameras have better dxo scores than 5dmarkii or Nikon D700. The best cameras are in the 90 -100 points scores and the second wave are in the 80 points range. G9 is in the 81-83 range in my opinion
I have used MFT cameras for 10 years. Just got a G9, and am enjoying learning the new features. Thanks for the detailed user review. You questioned the value of video shutter speeds below 1/framerate. This allows video recording of static scenes in very low light, such as a church interior, without needing high ISO.
This is the best overview of G9 on TH-cam. Well done.
Got my G9 today, I watched your video a couple of days ago and found it very useful, I watched it again today while going through the instruction book and helped considerably.
Thank you for making very detailed the review so soon, have mine G9 pre-order, hopefully it will available soon. I also need to visit Zagreb again, it's been a while sine I was there, it is a beautiful city.
Thanks! Come back in the spring when the days are longer are green comes back. Early May might be the best.
Passionate review with nice humor here and there. Such a pleasure! The camera looks great, pictures too, and the fun you had using it certainly translated to the video aswell. Very good, thank you very much!
Your reviews are brisk, informative, and entertaining. The sprinkling of humor you add also stands out. Congratulations and keep them coming.
I'm in love. The camera seems fantastic :).
And I also love your humour :).
Thanx 4 an informative video :).
Ivan, this the BEST revew of the G9 I've seen to date, no doubt about it. You covered more content with context thant the 3-part CameraLabs video and you actually provided examples of the key points. Really excellent work!
For the RAW magnification question, it’s because you’re looking at the small jpg embedded in the RAW file. It’s only really there for processing programs to show a thumbnail.
Strangely enough, the GX80 doesn't have this issue.
I've just ordered this camera. This excellent review made me more happy with my decision. Thank you.
Hope you enjoy it!
I had been waiting for the Sony a7R III to finally come out and was all set to buy when I heard about this G9 so I did a lot of research on this camera, saw a lot of reviews in the early stages after its release and I was so impressed I took a leap of faith and pre ordered 2 bodies. After watching your review, and before I have even received the G9's I am even more confident now that I made the right choice. Thank you so much for taking the time to make this and for the excellent work you put into it. Absolutely love your work. Cheers!
OMG I wan't expecting this so soon. Your reviews are the BEST. Love your channel.
This is the most comprehensive review about a camera that I have ever read. Thank you for a great job.
10:30 regarding the spot AE and focus at different points.
The only way to do this is to use AE lock with the backbutton for spot AE first, and then focus using the shutter button. obviously using the same spot, but turning the camera to what you want to focus on after locking AE where you want to control exposure..
Fantastic review & presentation demonstrates the features to those genuinely interested in the camera free from the often backward sales pitch for Sony FF often found in You Tube reviews & online. Thanks for your efforts, I’ve just ordered my first interchangeable mirrorless lens camera the Panasonic G9.
Thanks for your excellent and thorough review. I have this camera on preorder and have been watching all reviews closely. I learn from each of them and yours especially. And Happy New Year from Australia.
Was able to pick my copy up just before Christmas Eve (preordered in Germany), loved it form the specs and design, liked it even more when I first held it in my hands. Your review is still helpfull and highly welcome, thank you! By the way, you are right, I got a GX80/80 as my "small MFT Camera".
Definitly the best Review of this Camera so far !
Keep it up
Thanks for the great/detailed review! I actually got a GH5 brand new at a deal ($1500), and shortly after, Panasonic announced the G9. At first I thought "what the f@#$!" but the photo capabilities of the GH5 surprised me, and now reading/watching reviews of the G9 might make me get this one too! :-)
Thanks for all the hard work making this video, it just reassures me even more on my pre order I've made for a g9.
Excellent review. Thank you for the detailed effort.
you reviews are always THE BEST !! always to the point
Thanks for this review and especially the last part is so true - this camera is addictive and I can´t stop shooting with it. Best point of this new Panasonic are the colors as you mentioned. The colors are at a new level - natural vivid and attractive. Thanks for the excellent work!
Excellent review. Even us Olympus owners enjoy and learn from really well done reviews of other cameras. Well done.
This is an amazingly informative and sensitive review. It contains an enlightening assessment of the G9's capability and its impact upon potential users in the real world. Perfect. Thanks.
Thank you for a great review! I have my eye on this system. The noise is a problem but I also shoot with my lights most of the time so I will check it out!
Great video , Thank you , Ivan
I have pre ordered the G9 i, I live in Perth Western Australia, i should get my G9 at the end of January hopefully , i intend matching it up with the Panasonic Leica 100-400 mm lens to shoot birds and wildlife.
I learned a lot from your video, and i was really happy about the back button focusing, i used to use this on my Canon 7 D mark 2, it was great to use that function.
Once again ,thank you for a great video clip.
Regards Joe.
Best review I've seen on the G9! Good work.
Thank you for the review. I enjoyed the information and presentation. This camera definitely looks like a must have for me.
Best review of any camera, ever. Thank you!
Very nice and detailed review!
I was looking through a green nightvision scope, and thought to myself why not have that one in red!?? To make it even better the buttons should be red lit too.
This Panasonic G9 is a great camera for sure ! Thanks for this very thorough review, I always really appreciate your reviews and this one doesn't disappoint. I would love to get this camera but I think I won't even use 10% of all its features. I hope Panasonic soon releases a successor to the G8/G80/G85 with some nice features from the G9 (20mp sensor, 6k photo, bigger evf, better jpeg engine/color/AF but without 60fps/20fps burst, joystick, wheel, less buttons...) in a smaller form factor and at a more affordable price (around 1k€).
Thank you for a superb review: thoughtful, thorough, and timely.
yes, you can move the spot metering point with the touch ae option
IBIS.Good. I don't use HR. I don't like tripods. Doesn't suit my style. I like this camera.
Thanks for the review as a previous Nikon owner really like the Nikon D7000 series styling of the double action dial and the LCD panel. Can you possibly aver a head to head and compare with the Olympus OMD- EM1 mk2 for an Overall winner
Thanks for sharing. Regards BP
best panasonic g9 review. period.
An excellent, comprehensive review of a very fine camera.
At last a channel with good well balanced backing music.
Absolutely best camera review I have ever seen! Thanks so much for the detailed description and good luck for your for your channel growth - you ought to have ten thousands of followers! :-) Only problem: I just bought GH5 a couple of months ago a now I want the G9 ;-)
Thanks! My advice: wait for the rumored GH5s (coming probably in a month or two) and then decide what to buy (or just stick with GH5).
RAW images what I have seen not differs much. Actually its hard to find difference at all. So unless you can sell GH5 with no loss in money, there is no logical reason to change. Of course the review talks a lot about how colors are better, but I havent seen that.
Thanks and interesting point. Maybe I will first just try to test the G9 and get a direct comparison in between the Foto quality. Though there are also a couple of I features I find interesting... Then I can see, for what price I could sell my GH5
Thanks and very good idea. I look forward to yor GH5s test - just to make sure, that this camera will not again make me want to buy it... ;-)
That's the camera I wanted and was waiting for but the Olympus em1.2 was a better choice for me because of the phase auto-focus instead of dfd. I use mostly Olympus pro lens that I prefer to Panasonic equivalent and the em1.2 auto focus work well with either Olympus or Panasonic lenses while the g9 dfd works well only with Panasonic lenses ans even there the em1.2 seems better based on test with the g85 I had and the gh5. I have better performance using a Panasonic lens on a Olympus body than using a Olympus lens on a Panasonic body so decided to go for the em1.2 which I like a lot so far.
Thank you Ivan for your thoughtful and logical review. I shoot mainly with my Leica Q for everyday photography so your closing remarks resonates with me. At this point I am looking for an interchangeable lens camera in addition to my Leica and I'm considering the Panasonic G9 and the Fuji XH-1 for light video work but mainly shooting wildlife, sports and auto racing. I would appreciate your thoughts. Fuji X cameras are familiar to me as I have owned XT-1, XT-2 and X70.
Nice video, thank you. I have one on the way but picked up some nice extra hints.
Excellent review - as always from you!
This was the review I needed. Thank you!
I do not see any difference on contrast, light and color in Adobe camera RAW when i shooting in raw with color profiles ( Normal,Natural,CinelikeD/V ) . Panasonic G9
Great review - well done - really informative...
Nice review. Just want to ask, which would you prefer G9 or Olympus' OMD EM1 mark 2?
G9
@@Camerahoarders thanks
I just hope that the very most important problem with my GH2 has been solved in G9. Please confirm that “Time to shoot video from power-on” must be immediate.
Thank you very much for your great Review with all its details!! I appreciate it very much!!!!
25:00 The Sony A9 is also 3X more expensive than the Panasonic G9, at least in my region (Vancouver Canada).
Thanks for the review. :)
Thank you for a very comprehensive video on the G9.
very pro review, thanks for the efort, now i know everything about the G9, and i will keep my GH5. I wait for your review on the GH5s.
Great review. I love what I'm seeing from this camers. Thank you for taking the time for a very thorough review. However, now that you're finished with it, can I have it? Thanks in advance! :)
Excellent review - the best I have seen - Thank You
I have one on order, hoping I won't regret it, one thing I am hoping is that it has live composit same as the olympus cameras have. and also hoping that the Olympus 12-100mm f4 lens stabiliser is compatible with the G9
Thanks for this review - an excellent, professional and thorough job. How would you compare it to the 80/85 in terms of value for money - and is the G9 worth the extra ?
Thank you for a very straightforward review.
This was a great review - good job!
very good review my favourite for the G9
Nice review! What do you think about image quality of the G9 vs the G85?
superb review, thank you!
Thankyou for a really interesting and enjoyable review. I can see that people are a bit skeptical about the size of the camera but its sounds like that improves the ergonomics. I can really relate to this after finding my gx8 was the first camera that made me feel like getting out of bed in the morning to go and take pictures. Perhaps Im just lazy but its good to be in zen and want to practice. The innovation looks really interesting. At the mo I have the 12-35mm 2.8 mark 1. Is it worth upgrading to a mark 2 or the 12-60 to combine with the camera re stabilisation and focusing. It also sounded like the hi-res mode was something you considered useful rather than a gimmick. Same question again, would lens choice a difference. Thankyou again for taking the time to put this together and share your experience. S
Excellent review! Thank you!
I think I might get this for vlogging.
Thanks for this amazing review!
Best reviews as always!
Great Review! Thanks for the info.
Great review! I currently shot with a Lumix GX8 and love it. But the G9 has to be my next camera. Does the Bluetooth work well with an Iphone? Thanks
My Em1.2 like I said when you reviewed it does not have the problems you decribed. I wonder if you got a bad sample (which I always find a lame excuse actually, but since I have no other possibility...). First of all i do not even own a steady tripod, just a 100 euro manfrotto and even the 19 euro mini from Man. They worked very well and I have shot in the field with 8 bft winds and with the 100 euro manfrotto pointed at both leaves and brick houses it was clear the brick houses were still sharp 50% of the time. And to add to that: these wee long exposures 4 seconds or so which I proved by the clouds which were like a 30 second exposure...The Em1.2 in my book is very good for landscape, still life. Also with some movement like leaves and surely water, but not with people or so that move in it.To be clear: I would advise almost everyone to go for the G9 since the handling of the Em1.2 like my EPL5 is well...horrible. But that is personal. I love the interfacing with Panasonic cams. I really dislike it with Oly.
I decided to get this camera. I better not go and look on your newest reviews. They might change my mind.
You should look at my newer videos... I actually bought the G9 more than a year ago and love it.
I've been eyeing and considering the G9 as an upgrade to my G7. This video reinforces my thoughts to get the G9. The only other consideration is to see what the rumored GH5s is all about. If it is $2500 USD, I will be buying the G9 at $1700 USD. I just purchased the Nocticron 42.5mm f/1.2 lens. I need to find some money in my budget. Thanks for your review. I appreciate your assessment and opinions.
I am enjoying the G9 and what it can do. The usability is so good with the button layout and My Menu is excellent. The EVF does have a little pincushion distortion but I've gotten used to it. Also what appeared to be an overly bright EVF at first is now "just right". Incredible how the human mind adjusts.
I have the 12-35mm f/2.8 and 35-100mm f/2.8 lenses purchased prior to the Nocticron. I still like the versatility of the zoom lenses but no question the Nocticron is super good. I did a photo shoot the other day with just the Nocticron and I found I was able to cope with it for photos and videos.
@Kassyni Savior, I could have used 400mm when I shot the moon the other day. 100mm just isn't enough. I used the High Resolution Mode to shoot the moon - then I cropped to still get a decent resolution image which I posted to social media. I've shot birds and animals but the longer end of your 100-400mm lens would be ideal.
Product quality consistency can be ensured by the manufacturing process which is highly automated for most elements and parts. However, final assembly is often done by humans. And quality control is a human labor intensive step. Fortunately, I've had reasonably good experience with Lumix products so far (G7, G9, 3 lenses). As for camera firmware - like any software, there are bugs which get released into the field. My G9 periodically hangs while doing WiFi transfer of images from camera to computer. When this happens, I have to remove the battery as well as the SD card to "reset" the camera to work properly with that SD card. Yesterday, it happened again and also ended up deleting the image file on the SD card. Fortunately, it was just experimental stuff I was doing. For photo shoot outings, I use USB attached transfer since it would typically take too long over WiFi.
Nice and thorough review, well done!
Does the G9 have the Snap Movie feature that can be used to perform a focus pull in video?
Did you test the video quality at 150fps FHD?
No focus pull for you! (or anyone else on G9) ;)
I guess Panasonic wants to clearly distinguish G9 and GH5 and I don't blame them for that. Overall AF in video is snappier on G9 though so I think a simple touch screen-finger-focus-pull might be enough for casual use.
super review - great conclusion - very underestimated camera - imagine if Panasonic made a APS or FF version of the G9 :)
Very good review. kinda going between the G9 and the Nikon D7500. Any suggestions?
Great review! What about high frame rate recording? Is it too bad compared to the GH5?
How do you compare it to the EM1 Mark II? In terms of "Fun", and also in terms of AFC, feeling in hand, robustness, etc?
Great review -- really useful -- thanks!
In former modells the video autofocus was depended of the frame rate. Is this still the case with the G9?
Did you try the FZ 2000? I need a zoom camera. Lenses for the G9 is expensive
QUESTION: can I record 2x 6min in 4k60fps with G9? Or it will stop in the SEC recording at the 4th min?
Thanks for figuring out how to move the ' playback ' to the right side. Were there any unique steps to do this ? My left hand was injured at birth, so for me I would constantly need to reach over with my right hand to activate playback. Where you able to make the original playback button into some other feature ? Have you thought of creating a ' separate ' button into being your focus ? Besides other advantages this would solve the overly sensitive O. E. shutter. I will do this once I get my G9. I'm now using the Pani Fz2500 bridge camera - 1 in. sensor, 24 ~ 480 zoom which, do to it's versatility, I will keep. Understanding my way around the Fz I hope will help in making a quicker learning curve onto the G9. Your video's are well done & thanks again.
Sadly original play button is always a play button. YOu can decuple focus from shutter and use AF/AE lock for focus.
@@Camerahoarders You were able to go into the menu under ' Fn Button Set ' & change the Playback to a right of the screen button ? I'm considering making the upper button - next to the lens - as my focus. Index finger = shutter, 2nd finger = focus. Thanks for the quick response. Any suggestion for a 1st lens acquisition ?
The lens would depend on your personal needs... my most used lens is 15mm f/1.7
Im curious/waiting on some video examples of the sigma speedbooster combo with it. Then ill pull the trigger
In Feb 2019 this camera is very inexpensive and great bang for your money.
So what camera did u get for Christmas.
Excellent review!!!
How is hi iso noise for photo vs E-M1 Mark 2? Would you say similar?
great review, thank you. do you know how this camera performs for long exposure of 10-30 minutes?
No, I don't think I tried anything longer than 25-30 seconds.
G9 + 12-60 f2.8-4 or 1000€ more expensive om-1 + 12-40 f2.8? What would you suggest? Would like to focus more on video part besides photography. Thank you
For Om-1+lens price you can get Panasonic s5 II +20-60mm which is superior camera in most ways. Otherwise G9 is hard to beat at current prices.
@@Camerahoarders s5ii is to bulky for me and g9 is better in my hands. Also i want to take advantage of smaller 4/3 lenses
Why didn't you go for the gh5?
Thanks for a nice review, I notice there is some Pincushion effects in the EVF, is that normal? I also notice the same in the Gordon Laing review as well.
No, this is only because how camera that was recording video renders it... optics in EVF were made for our eyes, not for sticking another camera's lens into it.
Thanks for the reply, that is good to know.
I read in the DPR forum and found a similar report from someone that handles the camera in store about the pincushion effects. www.dpreview.com/forums/post/60549465
Nice review!
@11:38 How come you have two pages of menu for video format? On my G9 with the latest firmware there are only five items in single page. Did they remove some options with a newer firmware..?
I don't know, maybe you are in some other recording mode which offers less options to select from...
Great G9 review, but: Why did you return it and not keep it if it is so good?
Because 95% gear I reviewed on my channel (G9 included) are just loaned by local dealers, brand representative offices or friends.
Camerahoarders understand that, but this review sounds like you want to have this camera by your own so I was surprised
I would like to have it, but if I bought everything that I like I would go bankrupt in a heartbeat. :)) If you are thinking of getting one, now is the time to buy it, it can be found as low as €1100, almost half of the initial price when I reviewed it.
I'm stuck between the EM1 M2 & G9 for my next camera. I currently own an EM1. Your thoughts? ps: I've read other reviews saying smearing in details on G9 and other complain about Panasonic colors aren't as good as Olympus. Your thoughts again?
Please ask me something easier like world peace or time travel... :)
It's a really tough choice between EM1mk2 and G9. Right now I am a bit more inclined towards G9 as I think ergonomics is though out better. For colors it's really hard to say without comparing them directly, Panasonic made a pretty big leap forward with the G9.
On the G9 turn NR to - 5 to avoid smearing.
lol...I feel the same for Sonys... I finally gave up trying to like them based on their aspects.
