Even for this 20 minute video, this was an overview of the S9, any one of these features could be its own video, which I’ll do in the future! Which one do you want to see first ??
Can you match S9 with leica lens like voigtlander nokton 40 f1.4. I really want to see how its color compare to leica. And also rolling shutter issue with electronic shutter.
Never apologise for going on the press trip! Your personal brand is a business - it was a business trip - and that’s amazing that you were selected 🙌🏽
Thank you man 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Bro, the issue is a bunch of channels with 1,700 subscribers got flown out. With Kofi's 32k it makes sense.
At this point, i just feel like it isn’t about the camera but the one behind the camera. Because like i mean, just look at this..... I see so much capabilities with this.
Facts. What makes Kofi stand out is he knows how to use a camera’s strengths and weaknesses and still make it happen.

I need to see these features trickle down to the s5ii / s5iix . The lut stacking and features with the app are mind blowing.
You can real time lut in there!
@@KofiYeboah Im referring mostly to the stacking outs and being able to set the opacity. If that feature is on the s5iix then Im unaware.
@@ChetaMeister oh it’s not, THAT feature is money man
@@ChetaMeister I would also love to see the ability to add grain to non back and white photos profiles would be welcomed as well but since it’s priced below the s5ii it seems like only a matter of time till we get a firmware update
OMG OMG OMG another embargo camera release! I had to do it because you posted on X. Interesting camera. Some weird choices in the design. I love everyone going to simulations tho.
I’m having a ton of fun with it !
Dude it was so good getting to hang with you in Osaka! Loved getting to know you a bit and it’s pretty awesome that you were able to teach this old dog some new tricks. You’re a killer, man… love your energy and ethics. Keep on keepin’ on.
Thank you brotha man🙏🏾 appreciate you man and it was fun hanging out again!
Let’s do Tokyo next ?👀
@@KofiYeboah sign me up!!
Looks like a beast for a small full frame!
It’s so little 🙏🏾
Awesome review!!! First time seeing your channel and the shots were creative and loved the pacing and info. BTW, I'm pretty sure you predicted the future in your conclusion haha and props for somehow getting it right before it was even an issue!!
Thank you man 🙏🏾🙏🏾 I
Appreciate it
The poetic irony is the S9 is sold out rn 😂
Really dope frames throughout this video. I have the s5ii and have loved it. Coming from an a6500 the upgrade in features was appreciated. Really like what lumix is doing in the space.
I like how they’re trying new things, if we had every brand trying to make an Fx3, things would get boring
Good review Kofi. Your 65:24 OOC photos looked great.
Glad you like them!
Great video Kofi, as always! 🙌 Were the rest of the shots made with the FX30 + Viltrox combo?
I have to change the description
It was S5IIX and S9
@@KofiYeboah Ah, interesting. Thanks brother!
Would you say that this camera fits in an L mount production line? Say have it as a B cam or BTS camera among BMD Pixies or PCC6kFF?
The mount being similar may not imply the colour out of box being the same BUT I think for multi platform BTS (TH-cam and IG) this would be handy! I generally don’t have 10+ long BTS clips BUT, not having a headphone jack is kind of a miss I wish they had
Beautifully constructed and edited video! Seems like a good EDC or travel cam. Makes me question whether this or pocket 3 for portable fanny pack camera.
If they make a better pancake lenes I would love an S9 Fanny pack ahah
@@KofiYeboah that’s what I’m saying! If the s9 can’t fit in a fanny pack then its “smaller” body ain’t helpful even compared to s5ii lol. Was about to grab a pocket 3 till you dropped this 🧐
@@jaymills1720 I got it in my pocket with the 26 f8, and the s lenses fit in those 5L bags or a side strap !
excellent, one of the best S9 reviews I've watched so far, checking now to see if you've made more S9 videos
Working on them this week!
@@KofiYeboah 🤣 Good Man ! Thank you for swift reply 🤣
IDK Kofi... I think I still like the A7Cii a bit more (even with the high $). While marketed as a content creator's camera, I think this is more for the "point & shoot" "just starting" crowd. Also L-Mount lenses are limited.
L mount is NOT limited
There’s tons of L mount lenses I’m learning , and adapters exist
If this came out before I went to Ghana , for MY needs, I’d have gotten this over the A7Cii imho
@@castielvargastv7931 how many FF L-Mount vs FF E-Mount...
@@KofiYeboah FF L-mount lenses vs E-Mount aren't even close. Additionally, adapters are mostly for manual or older Nikon and Canon mounts. It's too bad that you can't adapter Sony E-mount but it's a flange design issue. I'll wait for the mk 2 version.
Great video Kofi. Good meeting in Japan 👊🏿
Thank you man and likewise !
Honestly I think the features you talk about that’s missing. Isn’t really relevant for this camera because its intended purpose wasn’t for what we think it’s for.
It was clearly made for photos with video features that was for small content creating specifically like IG.
Versus Sony’s compact cameras aren’t really made for a compact enthusiast people.
They’re just a literal compact version of the bigger cameras.
But anyways, basically what I’m saying is we should use the camera for what it’s intended purpose was. It was like when people were mad at the ZV1 for overheating. It didn’t make sense to me because it was made for small content.
Great video always appreciate your input and conversations
Thank you man 🙏🏾🙏🏾
"Made ne forget about film making because of the record limit"
😪 it’s not a camera for filmmakers, and alot of people are having a hard time feeling like they’re not included
@@KofiYeboah It's not the ideal camera for filmmakers but Pro filmmakers will be using it.
@natureredux1957 ive seen one youtuber rig it out, he didnt need an evf because of the field monitor, didnt need a grip because its on a shoulder rig, didnt need the shutter and recording limit because its recording externally. Same on a studio talking head setup, you dont need all the missing feats. They are mostly cosmetics, the brain of the S5ii is still there.
Can it be used professionally, yes.
Lovely meeting you mate! Love the video! a 30 minute record limit for us "TH-camrs" would be really nice
I wish the limit was higher
Actually non existent ahah
I wonder if there's ways to add more effects like glow, halation on the LUTS or the app?
Not yet!
@@KofiYeboah Interesting, do you expect it to be added ? This could be dangerously take my purchase into insta buy territory 😁
With some of the interesting choices Panasonic made with this camera I think there are much better option in the "Content First" camera space.
If you are just starting out the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 and ZV-E10 are great for smaller budgets.
For form factor, the ZV1 has much more features for a full sensor camera in this niche.
I don't think the slightly cheaper price will cover some of the short comings of this camera, but if it works in a person's ecosystem then nothing but good vibes on their creation journey!
I think both are great cameras, but I will say I think brands are investing more into the content creators tools (since some make as much as working filmmakers or more) so everyone’s finding their formula, the Osmo pocket 3, amazing, but if I wanted something full frame, lens options and still have 6k open gate and it’s $1499, I can’t think of another camera that does that for that little!
@@KofiYeboah but once you are spending 1500, why not just spend 1800 (or even less used) and get the S5II or spend 2k and get the ZV-E1 (which offer a lot more I think). Like there is no way I think this could be the ONLY camera you use. I think the S5II could be the go to camera, for pretty much everything a person starting out might want to do.
This camera, to me, strikes me as the 3rd or 4th camera for someone who is really into cameras. It's basically a non-starter for video due to the recording limits and no audio monitoring at all. It's similar to the X100VI, it's niche, and maybe fun, but going to be super annoying on a regular basis because you won't be able to do everything you want, I think.
If you were starting out, and only going to get one camera, would it be this one or the S5II, be honest...I don't think it's even close.
@@MaximoJoshua I think you hit a nail on the head, this camera wasn’t made to be used for the same reasons as say an S5, we asked this EXACT question, and the team explained that outside of the pro or pro aspired, their research proved that that half those things didn’t matter to those folks
The make up of the Japan trip wasn’t many pro photogs or filmmmakers , it was people who made content NOT in this niche and wanted a small quality camera. I’ve had so many fitnes influencer clients, not once have I seen one use a viewfinder, headphones, on camera flash or a monitor, or record long clips truth is this camera has a niche outside of our scope, and most people are tempted to insert the “pro” mentality, it’s very much not, and Lumix is open about that
@@KofiYeboah i guess, but I think that someone with an S5II can do everything this camera can do, without the limitations, and probably for the same price and when I saw them side by side, they looked pretty similar in size.
that is what makes this one harder to justify or recommend to a beginner. I think S5II is just better, maybe it's my mentality, but i am just thinking of options and flexibility, too many compromises with the S9. That is why I think it's probably a perfect 3rd or 4th camera for someone who has a better tool for long form stuff, or for photo specific stuff. Instead of getting the Fuji x100vi, get this one, and its your "fun" camera.
Anyway, just my opinion.
@@MaximoJoshua why I’m saying is that’s what it is , it’s in the “fun camera” category, right now it is $300 more than the S9 and it’s on sale so regular price to regular price it’s $500 more than it, I think it’s like the zve1 to say an fx3; same sensor, TOTALLY DIFFERENT user
I'd say, probably one of the better reviews that I've seen so far on the S9. It was very informative. I know this camera is not for me. I'm very deep into the Sony ecosystem and with DJI releasing that adapter for use of the Sony MI Hot Shoe, makes me happy. I have a real dislike for cables sticking out of my camera and having it partially block my screen. That's just me though. Great Video! 😀
I appreciate that ! Thanks ! I’m at a crossroads I have just as much as both now 🤣
Just getting around to watching everybody's videos. Well done man! I want some samurai pants
Thank you man ! I really wanted to get in my artistic bag for this one
Man this looks like such a little beast of a camera. I’ve actually been looking for something like this. Outside of my pro video work, I hate taking my camera around for travel or family pics etc. I was interested in something like a Fuji, but this would keep me in one lens ecosystem.
My ONLY beef is the lack of compelling small lenses to maximize It’s small size. That 26mm ain’t it. I would love a small 28mm, 35mm, or 49mm f2.8 with autofocus. Outside of new lenses, The 20-60 looks like a beast of a pairing with it.
We Alll Want a new set of small lenses BELIVE ME
Found your comment on Gerald Undone’s video and then found your video. Thank you for the great review and honesty.
I appreciate it man 🙏🏾
Been looking into a new pocketable travel camera. Definitely worth renting when the rental places get it to try it out.
Even see if you can borrow one! I’ve been using this non stop making Ig reels and posting right through my phone
If it would’ve had a mechanical shutter I would’ve followed through with pre ordering! That was my deal breaker. I have a zve1 and for photo it just isn’t the most ideal with the electronic shutter sadly. 😢
That’s unfortunate! It’s a great cam
@@KofiYeboah definitely! I just think since I have a lot of Sony cameras and lenses might just stay with Sony but who knows if Lumix ever lets me test it out for my channel maybe it’ll change my mind!
TH-camr always forget the third kind of people that need open gate video recording: taller aspect ratio fetishist like me 😂. I never use anamorphic, and I very rarely upload my videos to social media, beside content that I taken with smartphone. For me personally, I just love taller AR, especially 4:3, that reminds me of home videos from the 90s and a lot of good ol' classic movies. Lastly, it's easier to compose my frame with 3:2 or 4:3 because it's the same AR as my still cameras. Anyway, good videos as always!
@@indradinho88 I’ve only been introduced to the open gate life for like 3 months which has been a treat since getting into this Lumix thing 🫡
@@indradinho88 also thanks !
Love this entire vid. Immaculate colors and composition
Thank you ! I actually tried to throw down on this one !
Doesn't the komodo have 6k open gate?
It’s 10k, but also it’s open gate isn’t the same aspect ratio actually
Just a phone with ILC fullframe sensor without phone function
Cool!
All I'm gonna say is, I like it. For the price and features I'm all for it.
Well...one more thing. I don't care about headphone jacks. When I get a new camera, I shoot tests. Both for the footage and for audio. As we all know, the internal amps for cameras vary from camera to camera, brand to brand. So, if you don't record tests, I have nothing PG-rated to say to you. Seriously.
From the tests, you should be able to set your audio levels from there. If you can't, that's on you. For my narrative work, I always record audio externally and monitor it from the field recorder I'm using. If I record wirelessly, the kits I use have headphone jacks I can monitor from. I've never allowed the lack of a headphone jack get in the way of my filmmaking. In my book, it's a bad excuse.
An example where hearing audio might come in handy would be something like the DJI mic 1, on my fx6 there was a low ‘hiss’ coming from the camera that even setting levels I wouldn’t be able to see, and the in camera speaker didn’t play back til I put on headphones or brought it up in post, compact cameras exist where headphone jacks exist, so for it to not have one isn’t the WORST thing, but I didn’t want to feel like it’s something I HAVE to deal with if I don’t have to.
Also to be fair if this is an on the go camera, I might not have time to do an audio test on the fly if an issue shows up that I can’t find later down, it’d be handy to have is all
You sound like the panasonic commercial department. Man what a load of crap.
A headphone jack is simply mandatory and you will miss it.
We are nearing the 6k revolution for the prosumers! Blackmagic did it but they are on a different wavelength but we are nearing 6k for the rest
It’s nuts it’s in such tiny cameras !
@@KofiYeboahI placed a preorder for the green version! Lol

This is the best review I've seen so far!!!
That means a lot, thank you !
I don't think ive ever seen your legs before. that's the real reveal for this video !
Mystery revealed !
🔥🔥🔥
Let's go
Yessir !
Kofi is officially Japanese.
arigatōgozaimasu Cam san 🙏🏾
Thanks for the review. Regards your disclosure towards the end of the video, you did more than 95% of the other influencers so credit to you for that. I really think these disclosures should be at the beginning of the video. Regards "they just want feedback", the camera is already launched so this is marketing, not research and development, I mean it's not as if they are going to add an EVF next week because a bunch of you complain about it :-). I thought Julia Trotti made the best disclosure, albeit 3 minutes into her video and she has one of the biggest followings. Again I appreciated you addressed it, you are one of the few.
Disclosure was actually twice, I said Lumix sent myself and other to japan and we’re on long term loaners in the beginning 😅
@@KofiYeboah yes you did, my apologies. Well done.
I no longer do much video...stills are my thing...The S9 is not for me...I rock with a pair of Sony A7c (mk 1) and an old Sony A7s (mk 1). all for street here in Bangkok.
I wanted Panasonic to continue the GX9 (mk 2 ???) and or OM to continue venerable Pen F (mk 2 ???) ...Anyway I'm done with m43 for now...Cheers.
We still have a lot of time left to see what happens man!
Still I need an EVF.
dude. i love your review. it's... correct. hahahahahhahaha does that make sense lol.
point, narrative, imagery, personal opinions, facts, pros cons, insight and objective positioning. ❤
Thank you
🙏🏾
great vid man, but most of all... I.LOVE.THOSE.PANTS!
Ahah thanks man !
I will be buying them in 3 more colours ahah
Business always ask me what camera should I get for social media this is definitely it
It’s a winner in that department for sure !
Stabilization test was superb
I mean idk if i did well 🤣
I need that Kofi LUT 🔥
I promise I’ll finish it and send it !!
Small, FF, interchangeable lenses. Yes, please!
It was a lot of fun
siccccckk!!!
Thanks!
This is one of your best videos yet. Your photos in this one look awesome!
Thank you man !!
I like travel vlog Kofi lol
Rare sighting when he comes out 🙏🏾
bro pls the reference of the samourain pant XD
I’m doing for checks in videos now
Too bad you couldnt put that Gunna song in this video 😂😂
That copyright lol
Why every device from Panasonic Lumix must be for professionals? This camera was designed and produced at the first for fun and joy, It's stupid classify it for professionals.
It’s even weirder that I’m the villain for liking it 😅
nice review . would be better off buying a used S5 and call it a day
Get whatever works for you !
@@KofiYeboah yes sir 💯
If that’s a red camera, does that mean the s9 is a Nikon? 🤔
If you think about it long enough, the Nikon gods will be summoned and claim your soul
Omg you are about to make buy this camera arent you?...
Edit: Yes.
I don’t want to make you do anything unless it works for you!

cool!
As long as your film is less than 10 minutes 🤣
I don’t have a single clip over 10 minutes out of almost 160 uploads 🤣 except podcast videos which there’s only 2
@@KofiYeboah I don`t care what you have. It`s ridiculous short.
@@brugj03 … am I supposed to care about you sir?
I feel like this camera came out too late.
like many years too late.
Maybe!
It might be a delayed response like some of the S5ii/X I found that’s become more popular now than on release
You`re right, it lags at least 4 years. Meaning, it really can`t compete in the current field.
@@brugj03 it’s not meant to
It’s for a different segment that film bros/sis/thems weren’t invited to entirely and I think people are having a hard time with that .
Indeed you wouldn`t even be able to shoot this vid in one go.
It shuts off after 15 mins.
And it doesn`t have a viewfinder.
It has no mechanical shutter.
No hotshoe.
No headphone jack.
It has extremely limited full Hd recording time.
It comes with a crazy stupid 26mm f8 manual focus lens.
Indeed forget about filmmaking with this camera.
It’s not a filmmaking camera , it’s fun, remember having fun ?
Only a non Pro can't do filmmaking with this camera.
The S9: £1499, the S5II with extra battery: £1499 (Amazon). Sorry, but I'm not buying all the "creators" marketing mumbling. No hot shoe, no mechanical shutter, no headphone jack, no weather sealing, no EVF, the dedicated new pancake is f8 and manual focus only. And the nail to the coffin: 10 minutes limit in open gate! They butchered too much, and they ask way too much for this.. toy. It's expensive toy. Nothing more. They could make a slightly bigger body so it could cope better with over heating. 29min limit in open gate would be acceptable. No space for hot shoe? No cmon... Panasonic you greedy bastards.
Don’t buy it then, it’s not for you.
Crappy baked in LUTs 🤢 no EVF 🤢 no mech shutter 🤢 record limits 🤢 no hotshoe 🤢 $1,500 🤢 $1,500 🤢 $1,500 🤢 Literally every other brand has better options for cheaper. EVERY BRAND. New world record biggest joke release good job panasonic!
Ok
@@KofiYeboah Sorry for the negativity hahah. Great video overall, love the jokes and your cinematography is amazing! I really love panasonic, but can't support GARBAGE releases like this camera and the disgoostin f8 lens. It is absurd how many gasholes are encouraging people to buy this camera...
@@pringleboat Your opinion is cheeks , broke jit
@@pringleboat I think “garbage” camera is a little bit of a stretch for those who hadn’t even try to use it as intended
For one, MOST of the people on the Japan trip weren’t filmmakers or photographers, the things that matter to us don’t matter to them. Also variation in region also played a slight role in camera expectations, less than a quarter were from North America (27 I think of 150), the standards we have are different
This camera has quirks, but I’d be lying if I said I hadn’t completed two weeks of my social content in a lot less time with the option for reframing for say TH-cam in less time, to which a “garbage” camera couldn’t do that, I think people have to realize every release doesn’t red their insertion, and it’s not for everyone, like the Pyxis.
A garbage camera would be unusable, I’ve managed to use and enjoy it like the other 149 people, making that statement more emotionally driven than factual
@@KofiYeboahGarbage camera is EXACTLY what this camera is. Panasonic severely crippled to this camera to stop it frpm cannibalizing its current and upcoming cameras and it shows! No EVF whem theyve had it on their MFT compacts for over a decade.
No headphone jack because screw us I guess (Not even a USB Adapter like Fuji just no way to monitor audio.
No Mechanical shutter which takes up literal millimeters in the body they just removed making it a worst photo camera than cameras made back in 2008 like the 5D Mark ii or even the 2012 Classic EOS M. Which by the way has an ACTUAL HOT SHOE! You know what every cameras has had for more than 2 decades. Even some point and shoots have.
And the icing on the cake is that god awful 26mm f8 lens. Like who in their right mind would even consider such trash. Brightin star made a 28mm f2.8 full frame Manual Focus lens that is much better and much thinner than what Panasonic decided to drag out on stage.
Face it, this camera is a boatload of compromises that they decided to try to sell to unsuspecting beginners all the while Content creators such as yourself make excuses for this poor attempt at a camera. Like really? Record limits in 1080p?!?!?! This is the G100 ALL OVER AGAIN!
