New Panasonic G9 tests by Daniel J.Cox, Fraser, Pocket Lint: “the finest mirrorless camera that money can buy”

Share

Here are a bunch of new G9 tests:

Daniel J. Cos from Naturalexposures writes:

I recently received the new Lumix G9—what a fabulous new piece of photographic machinery. The shutter sound is the finest I’ve ever heard on any camera. Obviously, that’s not imperative in the scheme of things, but it just sounds like pure, unadulterated quality! Silky, soft, super quiet, and very smooth.

Pocket Lint reviewed the G9:

With mighty impressive image stabilisation, an ultra-sensitive shutter, super-fast burst mode, accomplished continuous autofocus and burst shooting, plus a viewfinder that’s unrivalled by any mirrorless model, the G9 really is the finest mirrorless camera that money can buy.

Panasonic Lumix G9 put to the test (Frasercoastchronicle).

Ray:I thought perhaps your readers, especially those who are into action cam video, might be interested in what I’ve done to solve a problem that I’ve had for a while with regular action cams. I’ve taken a completely different approach to what I need in an action cam and purchased an Olympus Tough TG-5 and found that it works very well indeed and complements my entire m4/3 system perfectly: https://australianimage.com.au/olympus-tough-tg-5-part-1/.

New Leica 200mm reviews by ePhotozine and Cory Rice

Share


Panasonic-Leica 200mm lens at BHphoto. Amazon. Adorama. Press text on 43rumors.

ePhotozine tested the new Leica 200mm lens and conlcudes:

The Leica DG Elmarit 200mm f/2.8 Power O.I.S is a cracking good lens that is highly functional, with a very useful teleconverter that extends the possibilities. Yes, the price hurts, but the alternatives hurt even more. This is such a pleasure to use and the results are just as satisfying, even with the fairly modest pixel count of the Panasonic Lumix G6. A definite Editor’s Choice.

Also Cory Rice tested the lens:

As would be expected, manual focusing with the Leica was silky smooth and I found the glass exceptionally sharp.
My photographs benefited from Dual I.S. 2, a marriage of in-camera sensor-shift image stabilization technology, and the image stabilization present in Lumix O.I.S lenses. The result is six-and-a-half stops of stabilization (one and a half more than the GH5) and no camera shake in my images despite my shivering hands and a nearly 3-lb lens. I found this feature to be the greatest strength of the G9.
