Packing the power of full-frame into an ultralight and compact build, the Panasonic Lumix S9 Mirrorless Camera is the perfect on-the-go camera for content creators. While smartphones continue to advance in their photo and video capabilities, a uniquely small full-frame system such as the S9 provides you with significantly more power without the burden of the size of a typical mirrorless or DSLR camera. A 24.2MP full-frame sensor is utilized within the S9, which makes creating high-quality images much easier, even in dimly lit situations. You also have the advantage of choosing from numerous L-mount lenses to suite your needs. Overall, the simplicity and convenience of the S9 makes it an excellent tool for elevating your ability to quickly create and share impactful images.
Connect and Share Instantly
Getting your photos and videos onto your smartphone quickly is a massive benefit offered by the S9. With improved connection speed and stability, users are able to easily link their device to the S9 in a few simple steps with the Lumix Lab app.
Real Time LUT (Signature Presets)
Create your own signature presets on your smartphone and transfer them to your S9, so you can apply them to your photos while you're shooting, not after. This gives you a precise idea of what your finished photos or videos will look like and is a massive time saver. You can download creators' LUT from the official Lumix website.
Extend Your Range with Crop and Hybrid Zoom
The crop zoom function utilizes the center of the camera sensor to extend the normal zoom range while maintaining image quality. The hybrid zoom function utilizes both optical and crop zoom to extend the focal length even further.
L-Mount Lens Selection
Based on your shooting needs, complement your S9 with one of the many superb L-mount lenses. With more than 80 lenses to choose from, the possibilities of images you can create are boundless. Maintain the small and lightweight nature of the S9 by pairing it with the Lumix S 26mm f/8, or go with a more versatile, but slightly less portable, option like the Lumix S 20-60mm f/3.5-5.6 lens.
