Sample Footage from the Panasonic Lumix DC-G9 II - DPReview Tests
Almost six years after the announcement of the Lumix DC-G9, Panasonic rolled out its successor, the Lumix DC-G9 II. This is the company's high-end model aimed at stills shooters, and it is the first-ever Lumix Micro Four Thirds camera to include phase detection autofocus. Despite its target demographic, the G9 II comes with a surprisingly long list of video features as well. A thorough redesign, the G9 II is based on the chassis of the full-frame Lumix S5 II and S5 IIX, giving it room for plentiful controls and ports.
Key specifications
25MP CMOS sensor with dual output gain
5-axis in-body image stabilization (CIPA-rated to 8 stops)
On-sensor phase detection (779 points)
3", 1.84M-dot fully articulating touchscreen
3.86M-dot OLED electronic viewfinder with 0.8x magnification
60 fps burst shooting with AF-C and electronic shutter (10 fps mechanical)
100MP handheld high-res mode
Up to 5.8K Open Gate 4:2:0, C4K 4:2:2 10-bit, with V-Log and HLG
ProRes 422 and 422 HQ recording to SSD
Raw output to Atomos and Blackmagic external recorders
390 shots per charge battery life (using LCD)
