I agree with everything the reviewer said about the Lumix S9 Sir. It's a fantastic camera with a lot to offer. I'm particularly impressed with the low-light performance and image stabilization. I'm also a big fan of the ability to shoot and film remotely.
you convinced me ... I'm getting one! Oh hang on ... I already have one!!! No matter how much people complain about it, it is still a very capable little camera. Your b-roll samples prove it. BEAST!
I have! The s5 is a great camera but it’s hard to use a lumix camera that does not use the updates phase detect AF. For the AF alone I would use this camera. But I do love the s5
Great review! Have you tried s9 in elements - dust, rain etc? Planning to go on a trek in summer where it gets dusty and humid. What are your thoughts?
Wondering if you would recommend the Lumix S9 over the Sigma FP/FP-L for travel photography owning already a S5II. See you made lots of videos about these two. But didnt really see a great comparison between the s9 and the sigma fp's.
PERSONALLY I take my FP traveling. I prefer the grip of the FP, it’s slightly smaller and I prefer the photos and video from it over the s9. I may make a comparison between them at some point, but since I regularly work with both lumix and SIGMA, it’s a video I have stayed away from out of respect for both brands
Don't have or haven't used the S9, however, I would (personally) say that the GR3 is a device like none other. The colour science is on par and sometimes even better than Fuji, SOOC images can look amazing, not to mention the general fact that it's so tiny you can throw it in your pocket and just use snap focus to shoot like crazy with it. It can do macro, it can do portraits, it has high quality images and they managed to stuff an APSC in that thing, I don't even know how they did it but they did. If you had to have only one camera I'd recommend an ILC but if you want someone that you can just keep on you at all times and shoot some amazing photos without even been noticed, the GR series fills that niche easily. As someone who has used many cams from mirrorless to dslr, film cams etc, the one camera I cannot do without ever is the GR3, it's that good! I debated even grabbing a gr3x for a super portable two camera setup that you can effectively take anywhere, it's a pocket rocket for sure
@@gianpakasa it's all good! Just a few notes though, the autofocus may take a little bit of setting up to get decent/good auto, in good light it does well enough, about as well as my X Pro 2 with the XF35 f1.4, but do not expect blazing fast amazing autofocus like you would, I mean it is a good, 5 years old now so that sorta tech has gotten much better, where it makes up for it however, is with its snap focusing which works the same as zone focus, you can preset it to be say, 1m-infinity from yourself and it will more than likely be in focus, I exclusively use it in snap focus and have a dial set to DOF and the other to exposure which works for getting further out in focus and closer in focus, also to note, the ibis is brilliant, it's a tiny camera and I've found you can hand-held a shot at ss as low as 1/20 and in the event you do need extra stabilisation you can throw a beanbag in your pocket and you're set (no joke) If you're fine with working within the limitations of the camera it's a very rewarding process, and the images it takes are wonderful
Can you show the 120 HD quality? Because I'm standing between the s9 and the Sony a7CII, that has a really crip 120 HD. Don't need 4K, but I know that the Focus was turned off in 120 HD on s5iix and s5ii and here it should be on, but I haven't seen any video about it at all on TH-cam. I also would prefer the s9 over the s5ii(x) because I have really small hands, and nowadays without the recording limit, it has everything I need. And really sweet that your mom watches you videos 🤗
@@Ansonandco Yeah, I'm currently considering which one should I buy, either the S5II or the S9, the things that get my attention towards the S9 are the hybrid zoom and the small form factor, since I'm coming from a Canon M50II (micro four thirds)
@@Ansonandco I'm currently dedicated more towards street photography, landscapes, a little bit of nature and events and that's what worries me the most, not being able to use the s9 for events photography due to the lack of a Hot Shoe. With my Canon I definitely need a flash cause I can't rank up the iso higher than 1600
No it is not. Not at all. Without the grip and with large lenses it can be a bit uncomfortable. But with the right grip, there are several to choose from, it is not uncomfortable at all.
Do you want Taco Bell?
Yuuuus 🤤

man, I have the lumix S5 and it's sooooo good. this one looks incredible.
Nice! Yeah it's a really nice camera, super happy with it!
@@Ansonandco have u used the s5? if so, how they compare to eachother?

@@Ansonandco I agree. the AF really is a downside. thanks for the answer.
what is the lens you have on the thumbnail?
This is the brightenstar 28mm f2.8. Killer pancake lens
Great video Bro. I have to now only learn how to color grade 😅. Beautiful image.
Honestly a lot of that footage is using realtime LUT 😬

Why B or C camera? Is it any difference between image quality between s5ii and s9?
Very different image between them. But in fairness I’m using it more now than either of the lumix cams
@ and how much is the difference? I just bought the s5 but the s9 would be just perfect for me in size and autofocus? How much worse is the picture?
Considering that is around 1700€, and taking in consideration only stills, do you think that the S9 is better than a Ricoh Gr3? Just for photography

I would say it depends on preference. If you want a pocketable camera then the Ricoh is a no brainer. It really just depends.
@@Ansonandco yes indeed. But I was mainly referring to picture quality..
How would you compare the cameras?
Please recommend must have lenses for S9 for travel. Love your videos
10-18 f2.8 SIGMA and maybe the 45mm f2.8. Those are my go to travel lenses
just curious, why choose this over zv-e1?
i don't like sony colors and usability

Do you think this camera can shoot amateur sports photography ? Is the FPS quick enough for that?
I’ve never used it but I’m going to guess probably not
I would definitely go with and s5ii or iix for sports over the s9. Just due to the electronic shutter
Best lens for video?
What are you shooting?
If i want a fun camera to shoot eveeything, which one of these:
Zf + 28-400
S9 + 18-40
D Lux 8
@@NetvoTV tough call! I can’t remember the video specs of the zf, but I would say the s9 or zf just based on if you need to shoot video.
Would you say the S5ii is way bigger and bulkier than this S9?
In a way yes. It’s not THAT much heavier though. You are getting a full size grip and EVF and so a natural byproduct is that it is going to be bigger
@@Ansonandco Yeah, I'm currently considering which one should I buy, either the S5II or the S9, the things that get my attention towards the S9 are the hybrid zoom and the small form factor, since I'm coming from a Canon M50II (micro four thirds)

Will the Lumix S9 heat up if I record video in 1080p for 4 hours of events?
If you want to record that long I would go with something that has fans. And so I would go with the s5ii over the s9
@@Ansonandco Another option is to purchase an external fan, such as the Ulanzi fan for the S9. This should allow for longer recording times.
Wait, it's been 6 months???
Hahaha yes it has
is this good for filmmakers? I don't need an evf or headphone jack to monitor audio. i just need good image quality and color profile like s5ii.
I want Taco Bell too
I mean who doesn't love taco bell??
The most misunderstood camera of all-time.
The major firmware update fortunately helps with the reputation.
How so?
Such an uncomfortable camera to hold. Even with the attachable grip.
And no lenses. Like literally...
No it is not. Not at all. Without the grip and with large lenses it can be a bit uncomfortable. But with the right grip, there are several to choose from, it is not uncomfortable at all.
@@argreg04There are lenses. Like literally.
@@iamhassan9943 Like literally taking it to zve1 + samyang price. No thanks.
We’ll have to agree to disagree. I find the S9 very comfortable, even with a Sigma 28-70 2.8 on it.
