I'm Dan Kleinow. I'm a landscape photographer currently living in the beautiful Colorado Rocky Mountains. The aim of this channel is to share my outdoor and photography adventures through my camera lens.

I left Florida in May of 2017 to travel and explore different parts of the world. I've lived and traveled in Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Colombia, Guatemala, and now live in Colorado.

My goal with this channel is to share my love for nature, travel, adventure, and photography with others.

Feel free to subscribe, I greatly appreciate it!

G9 !! what a beast!! Heard alot of good things about the g9. Great video Dan, can't wait to see your captures Brother!!

Very nice Dan! Enjoy your new camera and I look forward to seeing how you like it as you use it more.

Great first impression video Dan. I don't know much about the Lumix cameras. Looks like a nice strong body make, which is something that us Sony users have complained about (small camera body that doesn't fit the hand well). I look forward to seeing the images you create with your new camera!

Thanks for the review Dan. How do you compare the real world feel of weight and size vs the G85? Looking forward to seeing your results. Thanks for all the great videos and taking us along, but be safe out there.

I have 3 G9s for wedding videos...best bang for my money and for wide angle shots I use a Tokina 11-16 EF lens with viltrox adapter...best combo for the money. Now I may rent the Leica to compare.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the camera. I don’t know Panasonic really well only that some of their cameras have brilliant video and stabilization. Hope you have many years enjoying it 👍🙏

I used my G9 with the Panasonic-Leica 8-18mm lens on a trip to Big Sur, Carmel, and Morro Bay. I used the G7 before that in Central Mexico. I used the Panasonic-Leica100-400mm lens, the 14-140mm, 25mm f1.7, plus an Olympus 300mm.

The Lumix system is highly portable and makes traveling or hiking lots easier, especially with super telephoto lenses.

Great. G9 still rocks in 2022.
I recently got an OM-1 (I needed a second camera too). They both have pros and cons but the G9 is not inferior the OM-1. That's for sure.
Hoping for a G9 successor. Come on Panasonic.

I got a new Panasonic a month ago as well, I do like it too!

I thought it was a lens review not G85 vs G9 vs FF 😅

Way less than half the weight and size of full frame lenses!
