More G9II specs: Has same GH6 sensor, 1,5sec pre-Burst, weights 658g

Share

At 3pm London time Panasonic will announce the G9II and two new lenses. I already leaked most specs but here is some last minute addition detail:

  • 25.2MP sensor is the SAME used by the GH6.
  • Twice the readout speed of the G9
  • pre-Burst of up to 1,5 sec (100 images!) The G9 had 0,4 sec pre-Burst
  • autofocus works up to -6EV (G9 hat -4EV)
  • Camera weight is 658g
  • The new DMW-BG1E  battery grip is compatible with the S5II and S5IIx

G9II pricing info from the UK: £1699.00

That’s the pricing for the new camera and lenses in the UK:

  • Lumix G9 II Body £1699.00
  • Grip for Lumix G9 II £309.00
  • LUMIX Leica DG Vario-Elmarit 35-100mm f2.8 Power OIS £1099.00
  • LUMIX LEICA DG Vario-Elmar 100-400MM f4/6.3 II ASPH Power OIS £1499.00

So it’s priced just like the Fuji X-T5 in the UK.
