Panasonic Lumix Dc-G9

Innovative features mean the G9 delivers high-quality images to make your subject shine. A 20.3 megapixel Digital Live MOS Sensor combines with the latest Venus processing engine to bring you superb detail, as well as low noise, fantastic colours and brightness.

Capture every moment thanks to new DFD-Auto Focus with Burst Mode delivering the world’s fastest AF. Take advantage of advanced tracking performance, shooting at fastest-in-class 20fps with continuous AF for super-speedy subjects. The focus locks in just 0.04 seconds and tracks motion continuously, helping you make the most of those opportunities that appear and disappear in the blink of an eye. Take advantage of the G9’s small size and weight to move with the action. Shoot with confidence thanks to Dual Image Stabilisation which delivers up to 6.5 stops of compensation for sharp shots in a range of conditions. Lumix G lenses are much more compact than equivalent DSLR lenses, giving you the flexibility to shoot from a distance with a telephoto lens and still keep things crisp.

When speed is of the essence, use the innovative 6K Photo function to catch the unexpected. Shoot a sequence at 30 frames per second, then extract the best moment (in-camera) as an up to 18 megapixel JPEG. Ideal for shooting nature and wildlife, 6K Photo can also be extremely useful for action and sports photography. A new High Resolution Mode delivers 80 megapixel (equivalent) images in both JPEG and RAW - ideal for landscape, macro and nature photographers. Incredible detail and depth is rendered by combining 8 images taken while shifting the sensor - just make sure your subject stays still for the duration of the shot.

A large and bright viewfinder offers a high magnification ratio of 0.83x, with zero blackout even when shooting at high speeds. Unlike a DSLR’s viewfinder, you can always be sure that what you see is what you get thanks to live updates and a 100% view. Focusing is a breeze thanks to three modes of magnification, too. Shooting in challenging environments means you need your camera to be tough. The Lumix G9 is freeze, splash and dustproof and has been designed with photographers’ needs in mind. There’s USB charging, Dual SD Card slots with high speed UHS-II / V90 card compatibility, a joystick, status LCD and a large ergonomic grip. Much smaller and lighter than a DSLR, the G9 is ideal for travelling light while still capturing high-quality images.

Included in the kit is the LUMIX G Vario lens. This ultra-wide-angle lens lets you capture the vastness of sweeping landscapes with true-to-life ambience. The 14mm (35mm camera equivalent: 28mm) setting makes it easy to fit the whole scene into the image, while the 7mm (35mm camera equivalent: 14mm) setting provides an ultra-wide view that takes in even more than you can at first sight. Now you can effortlessly capture expansive landscapes when travelling or fit more into an indoor shot.
