Detailed personal view on Xiaomi (aka XiaoYi) Yi M1 mirrorless camera with m43 sized sensor. While sharing same sensor with highly acclaimed Panasonic GH4 camera it uses much simpler main LSI. It has lot of pluses like small price, nice photos, good timelapse capabilities, cheapest 4K. But it has also lot of issues, make sure to check our review video about all the sides of this highly controversal camera.

DPreview tested the GX9 autofocus system while shooting a live music concert. The conclusion:

The GX9 was a really good companion for this type of event. Paired with the Lumix 35-100mm F2.8, I had a compact, responsive package that wasn’t all that conspicuous, but I had plenty of reach and ended up with far better image quality than, say, a 1″-type superzoom. Of course, this combo can’t quite match up to a full-frame DSLR and a 70-200mm F2.8 lens, but that’s not really the point here.
Sure, the GX9 wouldn’t be my first choice for critical, action-oriented work (and Panasonic makes higher-end models for that sort of purpose anyway). But for the casual user who wants a small, stylish camera and wants to occasionally photograph a concert or sporting event for fun, the GX9 is easily up to the task.
