I respect your opinion. I happen to be loving my S9, and getting some great results straight out of camera. One thing I will add, the Lumix Lab app is not only a game-changer but, it's a WORKFLOW-changer. Every major camera brand will be copying their app, especially how it delivers looks / LUTS / simulations, directly from your phone to your camera. Once there, and also on the app, you can share the lut w/ others, you can adjust it, you can tweak it, you can stack luts, and you can make your own luts. It's honestly one major reason why the camera has been so fun to shoot with.

Show us the photos you’ve taken with the camera, please

S9 is the camera of the year. Perfect B cam for the S5ii. The people trashing this camera never used it.

[gregfeeler]

This is a great video which certainly expresses my opinion of the S9. It's like Lumix picked all this cool tech but then used it in completely wrong ways. The electronic-only shutter was an idea that should have never made it past the design meeting where they were tossing out wild ideas. This camera is a great example of how apparently smart companies can make some really stupid mistakes. I'll bet they have a replacement for it within a year.

Hi Tudor... amazing B&W pictures you have put in the video, love all of them. I just checked out S9 in a shop today. It is a very nice feeling camera but yes handicapped with various constraints - EVF, electronic shutter, 4k vid limit, etc. I think it is a good travel camera if you have some L mount primes and you just want to reduce some weight or an additional camera in a bag if you want to carry 2 bodies with different prime lenses.

Finally here's an honest review coming from a vlogger whos ticket hasnt been bought and flown to Japan by Panasonic.This is only a phone with ILC fullframe sensor without phone function..Congrats sir..

[JoATTech]

Is there really crop in 4k FF video mode? I think it's downscaled from 6k (full sensor readout).

[carlosamat]

sounds like a lot of bitterness that he wasn't invited to Japan... you don't even have the camera!

[JeevesTCW]

A bit long winded at the start but you got to the points in the end - the most honest review of the S9 so far I do agree with you - nice photos btw

[iursingh]

This is why i am subbed to you. Absolutely right. Thanks for the honest thoughts on it.
I hate this influencer culture and review embargos. Pathetic.

[GetOffMyyLawn]

They should have stuck with the micro 4/3 system. A GX85 with lut capability, and a better viewfinder and updated sensor, with phase detect af would have been great.

[kyleledotnet]

The biggest issue for me is to the price. If this was 900 dollars, I don't think anyone would complain and even with all the limitations, I would buy it as a complimentary b cam to my S5ii.
The second issue is that there is no compact enough lens to balance this small body. Even the small 20-60 kit lens, which is terrible under low light, is too big for this body.

[wpd]

They just tried to make a full frame camera as light and small as possible with sacrifice and forgot how heavy L mount lenses are. Got an Olympus EM5 mark1 recently coupled with LUMIX 35-100mm f4-5.6 ( real bargain now). After using the combo for three days I sold my Leica M11.
Some said when a full frame camera can be so small and compact what’s the point of micro four thirds? They forgot about the form factor of lenses.

[karinjohnstone]

Oh Tudor ! You are amazing. Thanks so much for saying this. You are like the little boy that speaks up in the story of The Emperors New Clothes. My own first response was also sad that the influencers who normally do fair reviews did not ! Clearly a free ticket to Japan is worth it. Also, I am not an expert but all of these points I was thinking and you have just confirmed my thoughts. I can’t thanks you enough for speaking up !!! Ironically there have been previous LUMIX cameras that probably deserved more positive reviews but it’s ironic that this one is getting all the hype.

[MightyMigi]

I’m so lost 1, 500 for FF 6k is a really good deal to me I don’t get it?

[reinhardankenbauer]

Thank you, my friend, you probably saved me from making a big mistake! Full frame, though it sounds magic, isn't everything! I'll stick to my fantastic xe-4! ❤

[francisco.lizarraga]

the micro hdmi is on the right right too, how you suppose to hold the camera with cables coming out it

[shogoth]

The weight difference between s5II and s9 is 250grams. Is it really worth to sacrifice so so much for 250g? No weather sealing, no grip. And that new lens 26mm f8 is... manual focus only.

we need more honest reviewer like you tudor🎉🎉🎉🎉
