When nature offers only a split second to get the perfect shot, LUMIX G9 is the ideal partner.

Get ready to capture images like never before with Panasonic’s brand new LUMIX G9. Providing photographers with the ultimate combination of high image quality, perfect portability and ultra-high-speed shooting, the G9 is the perfect match for wildlife and action photographers.

Building on the success of the superb GH5, the G9 is the new flagship model for stills photographers, featuring the best-ever image quality from a LUMIX G Camera. At the heart of the G9 is a 20.3-megapixel sensor, which when combined with the latest Venus processing engine, delivers exceptional imagery with high detail, low noise, fantastic colours and brightness. Tricky conditions, such as the backlighting that occurs when photographing animals against a bright sky, are handled with ease thanks to a special AR coating on the sensor to reduce ghosting and flare.

A new High-Resolution Mode can deliver an incredible 80 megapixels (equivalent) images in both JPEG and RAW - ideal for landscape and macro photographers. In essence, this mode works by combining together 8 images taken concurrently while shifting the sensor - a tripod is therefore essential when using this mode.

Sharper images than ever before are guaranteed with an upgraded in-body IS system for the LUMIX G9. You can now shoot at shutter speeds up to 6 speeds slower and still get crisp results - perfect when using the G9 handheld with long telephoto lenses to capture distant subjects.

Get the shot every time with enhanced autofocus and fast frame rates

Those elusive nature subjects are now easier than ever to track thanks to improved high-tracking autofocus performance, plus a shutter release lag of just 0.04 seconds - the fastest in the industry. There’s also no need to worry about missing the shot, as a frame rate of a market-leading 20fps is available at full-resolution with continuous autofocus (AF-C). Fix the focus to the first frame (AF-S) and you can enjoy an amazing burst speed of 60fps.

As if that wasn’t enough, both 4K Photo and 6K Photo are on-hand to help you capture your best moments. Panasonic’s unique technology means you can shoot at up to 30fps (6K) or 60fps (4k) and extract a still big enough to make large, high-quality prints. Other handy features make use of 4K technology, such as Post Focus - where you can change the point of focus after shooting, and Focus Stacking, to change the depth of field after shooting by combining multiple images.

When it comes to composing your stunning images, the G9’s viewfinder is the largest in its class. The Live Viewfinder (LVF) offers a high magnification ratio of 0.83x (35mm equivalent) and, better yet, offers zero blackouts even when shooting at high speeds, allowing you to always keep track of your subject. With a high resolution of 3,680k-dots, the viewfinder offers a 100% view so you can always be sure that what you see is what you get. There’s also a night mode, plus an AF Point Scope integrated into the viewfinder design.

At the rear of the camera, you’ll find a free-angle, 3-inch 1040k-dot touch-sensitive LCD screen, perfect for framing your shots from all sorts of creative angles. Designed to be highly visible even in bright conditions, you can also apply a night mode for low-light shooting.

A design ready for anything

The G9’s design offers both functionality and durability. A Status LCD on the top of the G9 - the largest in its class - helps you to see at a glance the settings you’ve currently got selected. A function (Fn) lever allows for rapid changes to settings, while a joystick is on hand to quickly change the focus point without the need to remove the camera from your eye. You’ll also find intuitively placed dials and customisable buttons to ensure the G9 works exactly as you want it to.

To make sure that the G9 is ready for whatever conditions you need to shoot in, it has a magnesium alloy full die-cast front and rear frame. It’s splash-proof, dust-proof and freeze-proof down to -10 degrees. Designed for extensive field use, there’s sealing for every joint, dial and button to keep it secure from the elements.

Dual SD card memory slots are both compatible with the super-fast UHS-II format, a first for LUMIX G cameras. You can use the slots however you feel most comfortable; as extra storage, as a backup slot, or for different types of media (for example, one slot for video, another for JPEG/RAW files).

Sharing your images has never been more important, so the G9 has you covered with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi compatibility. You can use Bluetooth to maintain an always-on, low-power connection to easily transfer your shots to your smartphone or tablet ready for sharing with the world.

Combining B.I.S. (Body Image Stabilizer, 5-axis) and O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer, 2-axis), the 5-axis Dual I.S. (Image Stabilizer) in the LUMIX G9 compensates for larger movements that were conventionally uncontrollable. Maximizing both O.I.S and B.I.S. is highly beneficial in telephoto shots and in adverse situations, such as at night or with one-handed shooting.

The 5-axis Dual I.S. 2 works for both photo and motion picture recording, including 4K video.

The high-speed, high-precision AF with Depth from Defocus (DFD) technology achieves the world’s fastest AF speed of 0.04 sec, which is the fastest in the industry. With its high tracking performance, the LUMIX G9 never loses the target.

The LUMIX G9 also boasts the fastest-in-class 20 fps (AFC) / 60 fps (AFS) in 20.3-megapixel full resolution to capture those unmissable moments. Complying with 6K/4K PHOTO, users can choose the most suitable burst shooting mode in addition to the regular consecutive shooting mode depending on the situation.

The LUMIX G9 has the largest-in-class LVF (Live View Finder) with a stunningly high magnification ratio of approx.1.66x / 0.83x (35mm camera equivalent). No blackouts occur even in high-speed burst shooting. Night mode and an AF Point Scope function are also integrated.

Adoption of OLED for the LVF achieves smooth display at 120 fps and high-speed response with a minimum lag of less than 0.005 sec as well as 10,000:1 high contrast for exceptional visibility.

To withstand heavy field use, the LUMIX G9 is constructed of a magnesium alloy full die-cast front / rear frame and is not only splash-proof and dustproof but also freezeproof down to -10 degrees centigrade. The largest-in-class Status LCD on the top makes shooting even easier and more comfortable. For the rear monitor, a 3.0-inch free-angle LCD in 3:2 aspect with 1,040K-dot high resolution is equipped. The G9 has a double SD Memory Card slot, compatible with the high-speed, high-capacity UHS-II.

The LUMIX G9 includes Bluetooth and Wi-Fi® connectivity to offer a more flexible shooting experience and instant image sharing with easy operation. Compatibility with Bluetooth 4.2 (called BLE: Bluetooth Low Energy) enables constant connection with a smartphone or tablet with minimum power consumption. For Wi-Fi, 5GHz (IEEE802.11ac) can be selected in addition to the conventional 2.4GHz (IEEE 802.11b/g/n) for an even more secure and stable connection.

LEICA DG LENS OPTICAL PERFORMANCE

Opt for a LEICA DG lens and get the ultimate in optical quality and performance. They naturally meet the strict quality standards set by Leica Camera AG. Thanks to the sophisticated design of these lenses, you will enjoy brilliant clarity all the way to the edges of your photos. At the same time, distortions of all kinds are prevented to enable precise, sharp picture rendering. This means you have the ideal tool for pro-level images in the palm of your hand.

Splash/Dust/Freezeproof – more creative options

Brave the elements in nearly any kind of weather or shooting location. This lens features a splash/dust/Freezeproof construction that is tough enough to withstand even heavy field use. It protects the lens system inside from sand, rain and more, making it perfect for shooting under harsh conditions. Now there is nothing holding you back from capturing the creative nature or landscape shots you want.

POWER O.I.S.

Capture scenes carefree or at the spur of the moment. The optical image stabilisation (O.I.S.) technology built directly into the lens ensures your photos will look great, with sharp blur-free contours across the entire picture. Taking highly popular MEGA O.I.S. further, this advanced technology immediately compensates for even large camera shake and vibrations that may occur in photography. So you can capture true-to-life scenes without the need for a tripod. In the end, you’ll enjoy wonderfully crisp images.

NANO SURFACE COATING

Put an end to unwanted ghosting and flaring – the Nano Surface Coating has been applied to lenses within the system. This special, ultra-thin coating was developed originally by Panasonic to reduce bothersome reflections across the entire light spectrum. The result: crystal-clear pictures even if you’re photographing a light source in the dark.

VIDEO SUPPORT

With video support any user has everything, they need for recording with their LUMIX camera. Not only does it perform smooth aperture changes so there are no sudden jumps in exposure, it also boasts a silent design for enhanced capture of the scene’s audio. What’s more, the stunning AF performance of this lens records excellent 4K video, where precise focusing is essential.

LENS CONSTRUCTION

Aspherical (ASPH) lenses reduce size and weight, effectively preventing spherical and distortion aberration. Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) lenses correct chromatic aberration rendering sharp, high-contrast images with clear colours from corner to corner.
