It's so funny that these are actually comparable setups in many ways. I came from the G9 and I already had the 200mm f2.8 and a couple other primes... I did consider getting one of the new PF primes for Nikon or L-Mount, but anything that's comparable in weight, size and performance is at least twice the price. The 200mmf2.8 is an incredible value. I see it below €1000 regularly. I anticipated buyers remorse over the G9II since I paid MSRP (stupid) but the sensor is incredible. I'm doing so much less editing. It's a great looking sensor for both photo and video.
Yes the G9 II rocks the micro four third world, I do appreciate his body size too coming from Nikon ( and briefly FF Canon) The PF 300mm is a great lens too, lighter than a 24-70, it give me great result on D7100 and Z50.
Can you try the 100MP high resolution mode on the G9ii? I know it'll be very difficult to do it handheld on a 400mm lens, so maybe use a tripod. I'm very interested to see how it compares. The GFX should still be better as the much smaller image circle on the MFT lens would struggle to resolve that much detail, but I'm interested to see how close it gets.
I got mixed results hand held even at 25mm. In tripod mode it works very well, and already did on the original G9, but I only played around with it. For the occasional landscape shot it might be an interesting feature.
I can tell the amount of detail, G9ii for several things had nothing to envy getting other bigger sensors, yes it can't compete resolution wise, but that's not the point
I switched from Canon FF to the G9 II to get the 4k120 in a budget friendly body. With the right lens the G9 II sensor is great. I just needed to do a showdown to convince myself I didn't need the GFX 😅
@@birdnerdqc4028 I agree with your comment about the importance of the lens. It is a key differentiator and can negate the potential benefits of FF / MF. I really like the images from the 200mm f2.8.
@@Democratiser This lens is so small and so good, and compete with some big FF fix lens, I had the EF 500mm f4 before switching to Lumix and have no regrets, so easy to carry and really sharp even wide open!
Fascinating, unique comparison. Thank you for doing this
Having the chance to try a GFX was a blast, I needed to convince myself that my Lumix was enough for my need 😅
That Leica 200 is amazing and is definitely contributing a lot to this comparison.
@@ahdnoh That is my conclusion too, there is so many good glass in mft mount that make Lumix and OM System look good!
its funny i like the images from the Lumix G9 way more!!!❤

@@Wildridefilms The few attempts I did with this lens were bad, I suppose this tech is more for wide lens than tele!

@@birdnerdqc4028Difficult to get the bees to stay still too! 😂
@@birdnerdqc4028 Need 100MP comparison between Fuji GFX100 II /Lumix G9 II,too can dear birdnerdqc4028 work on it~~

@@birdnerdqc4028 I have an EF 70-200mm f2.8L IS for my 5DIII but I haven’t tried on my G9. I should do that!
Your 4K Video is enogh for 9 II
Absolutely, the G9 II with the right lens is a beast!
nobody need this comparsion
Thanks for the input, can't wait for part 2 🤣
