Panasonic LUMIX G9 Mirrorless Camera with LUMIX G Vario 12-60mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens

Adding to the Panasonic LUMIX line, the G9 Mirrorless Camera comes with a Micro Four Thirds lens system accepting over a wide range of MFT LUMIX and Leica DC compact interchangeable lenses - giving you a variety of options to customize your camera and lens pair based on the type of photography you are interested in. This Panasonic has bundled this LUMIX G9 Mirrorless Camera with a LUMIX G Vario 12-60mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens to start right away. The LUMIX G9 uses a 20.3MP Live MOS image sensor and Venus Engine 10 image processor that work in combination to give incredible results. Advanced Depth from Defocus (DFD) autofocusing paired with camera’s Dual I.S 2.0 image stabilization produces sharp, detailed images. With a special High-Resolution mode, you can get a Massive 80MP RAW capture by shooting the 20.3MP sensor 8 times to create a single image. Plus, the camera is upgraded with the LUMIX 4K / 6K PHOTO Modes that help produce printable high-resolution photos from your perfect-moment videos.

5-Axis Dual I.S. 2.0 (Image Stabilizer)

The built-in 5-axis Dual I.S. 2.0 (Image Stabilizer) in intelligently compensates for up to 6.5 stops in slower shutter speed creating sharp, clear images. Shake is nearly eliminated in both body and lens even at during telephoto shooting. This stabilizer works in both still shooting and video recording, including 4K videos. When using lenses that are not equipped with Optical Image Stabilizers (O.I.S.), they can benefit from the LUMIX G9’s in-body image stabilization.

Improved Focus Detect and Selective AF

The LUMIX G9 comes with a Joystick Controller on the backside that can be used to smoothly and intuitively select focus blocks inside the focusing area grid overlay. The AF system uses 225-point focus detection area for accurate focusing and with customized AF settings you can adjust the AF directionality depending on the scene. The focus area group size and position can also be customized for Multi AF / Custom Multi AF. The Custom Multi AF mode enables free selection of blocks inside the 225 focusing area. An interesting AF Point Scope feature enlarges the subject temporarily by 3x to 10x for confirmation of the focusing position.

4K 60p Video and Slow Motion Effects

The Panasonic LUMIX G9 Mirrorless Camera delivers outstanding video performance with high-precision, silky smooth 4K 60p recording equipped with 4:2:2 10-bit recording mode and VLogL compatibility. In addition, the high-speed video recording yields a dramatic slow motion effect in 4K (60 fps maximum, 2x slower, and 30p playback) or Full HD (180 fps maximum, 6x slower, and 30p playback) quality.

Massive 0.83x OLED Viewfinder

The camera utilizes a massive super high-resolution 3,680k-dot OLED Live View Finder (LVF) that improves visibility and allows you to frame a perfect shot even under direct sunlight. With a up to 0.83x magnification and a long 21mm eye point distance, this LVF is perfectly suitable for people who wear glasses. The viewfinder magnification can be easily selected from 0.7x, 0.77x, or 0.83x depending on the scene (35mm camera equivalent) simply by using the V.MODE button.

Large Status LCD

A free-angle 3-inch 1,040k-dots TFT LCD monitor with static touch control instantly confirms the camera's settings. You can conveniently use it for shooting with frequent settings adjustments, and for simply framing with the viewfinder and rear monitor. The monitor comes with a brightness, contrast, saturation, red-green, blue-yellow settings for better viewing.

Night Mode

When shooting dark scenes like starry skies, the camera’s Night Mode suppresses the stimulation of the eyes that are accustomed to the dark. The Live Viewfinder (LVF) and rear monitor can be set separately.

Dual SD Card Slots

The G9 mirrorless camera come with dual SD card slots giving access to larger capacity recording and efficient file arrangement. Relay recording allows for swapping a full card out for an empty card for virtually endless recording. With a backup mode, the camera can continuously record on one card, while starting and stopping recording on the other card. You can even simultaneously record duplicate recordings on both cards.

Bluetooth 4.2 and Wi-Fi 5GHz Controllable
