Panasonic GX9 tested at DPreview: “a camera we can easily recommend”
Dpreview published the full review of the new Panasonic GX9:
With its compact size, robust feature set, abundant controls and overall responsiveness, the Panasonic Lumix DC-GX9 is a great camera for all kinds of photographers. The trick tilting viewfinder is a neat touch (though we wish it were larger), and limited battery life remains a sticking point. But impressive in-body image stabilization, a pleasing JPEG engine and good quality 4K capture mean the Lumix GX9 is a camera we can easily recommend.

Earl: “Not a rumor, but I’d like to share this video of several time lapses that I shot in Hong Kong with my GH5 and maybe a touch of a G7.
