The editors didn't like
High rezz mode only usable from a tripod for a static subject

Above 6400 ISO
You're better off with a full-frame sensor due to the signal-to-noise ratio and dynam
Huge range of Micro Four Thirds lenses (incl. new 200mm f/2.8 Leica) ensure top image quality, Massive viewfinder and useful vari-angle LCD, 4K video and 6K stills modes, Super-fast burst modes, Accomplished continuous autofocus, Pinpoint AF mode
Viewfinder eyecup could fit tighter, Optional battery grip should offer two batteries, Smaller LCD screen than GH5, Smaller sensor than some rivals, No 'super raw' with post-focus adjustment (like Canon 5D IV)
The Panasonic Lumix G9 doesn't only step up what mirrorless cameras can do - surpassing even the Fujifilm X-T2 in many areas - it successfully places itself in among the DSLR elite. It's a very impressive bit of kit indeed.However, having already describe...

6.5-stop image stabilization, Up to 60fps burst shooting, Large viewfinder, Great grip and handling, Dual UHS-II card slots
ISO range could be broader, Reduced screen size compared to GH5, Battery level not shown as a percentage
Aimed at enthusiast and semi-professional photographers, the Lumix G9 is certainly very competitively priced at £1,499 / $1,699 / AU$2,499 (body-only); you get a lot of camera for your money. Panasonic has made a sensible move with the Lumix G9. The GH5...
Very fast frame rates, Small, light lenses, Rich, vibrant photos, Bright and clear viewfinder
Small sensor, Relatively low pixel count, Large body for a CSC, Comparatively short battery life
The G9 is the best Lumix camera to date and a cracking choice for wildlife or action photography. Naturally, there's a trade-off with that Micro Four Thirds sensor – as great as the G9's images are, they're not on a par with with a full-frame camera, par...
ISO range could be broader, Reduced screen size compared to GH5
In the Lumix G9, existing users of the Lumix system now have a very tempting, feature-packed high-end model to aim for, without necessarily feeling they're paying for a load of advanced video tech they may not need...
With the Lumix G9, Panasonic has developed its most advanced camera for stills photographers. I walked away from our brief hands-on session very impressed. It certainly looks capable of doing what most serious amateurs, and enthusiasts want: to capture sh...
Abstract: Panasonic wants its new Lumix G9 to be the GH5 for still shooters; a small, light, fast and flexible alternative to traditionally bigger cameras for outdoor and action photography.In reality, it's a direct competitor for the Olympus E-M1 Mark II and an in...

autofocus rapide, rafale élevée, viseur électronique, écran orientable et tactile, stabilisation du capteur, vidéo
pas de flash intégré, pas de mode panoramique, déclencheur trop souple
Juste au dessous du GH5s, le Lumix G9 se veut plus orienté photo avec moins de réglages vidéo et propose en effet une ergonomie plus adaptée que celles des GX9 ou GX80. C'est dans les faits un appareil ultra réactif. Parfois même un peu trop...
