Panasonic G9 + 10-25mm

 All PANASONIC G9 INFO

PANASONIC has taken a different approach to camera development with the DC-G9 Micro Four Thirds Mirrorless mirrorless camera, which has a variety of newly developed features and functions that will appeal to photographers. The combination of a 20.3MP Live MOS sensor and the latest Venus Engine processor is critical to the imaging process, enabling the capture of sharp images and video with sensitivities ranging up to ISO 25600. Extremely fast speeds are also available with up to 60fps continuous shooting with the electronic shutter function. If you want to record video along with still images, the G9 is very accommodating, offering 4K UHD up to 60p.

This improved speed is seen in many different aspects, including an improved Depth-from-Defocus autofocus system with 225 areas for fast and accurate focusing throughout the frame. A rear joystick has also been implemented for intuitive control over the current focus point. Another benefit of enhanced processing is the inclusion of 6K PHOTO at 30fps and 4K PHOTO at up to 60fps, allowing users to capture 18MP or 8MP images, respectively, at exceptional frame rates. Beyond speed, the 5-axis sensor stabilization system supports Dual I.S. 2.0 and can compensate for up to six stops of camera movement. And a significant addition made possible with this new system is a multi-shot mode that captures eight separate images and compiles them into a single 80MP RAW image.

Not only has performance been optimized, as the G9 has a redesigned body that is splash, dust and freeze resistant. The body gets a superior status LCD display for quick access to essential settings without needing to check the LCD or viewfinder, which have also been improved. Most notably, the OLED viewfinder has been enhanced with a magnification of 0.83x and a resolution of 3.68m dots. The EVF has a refresh rate of 120 fps and a lag-free display. In addition, the LCD screen is now a 3.0" 1.04m free-angle touch screen to work intuitively and at odd angles.

Panasonic lens 10-25mm LEICA

A unique lens with a distinctly bright design, the LEICA DG Vario-Summilux 10-25mm f/1.7 ASPH. PANASONIC is a zoom equivalent to 20-50 mm for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras. The impressive f/1.7 constant maximum aperture allows for improved depth of field control and low-light shooting capabilities throughout the zoom range. Balancing the impressive performance of f/1.7, the optical design incorporates a number of low-dispersion, aspherical, and high-refractive index elements, which help greatly reduce chromatic and spherical aberrations to improve clarity and sharpness. Complementing the optics, this lens is also characterized by its durable, weather-sealed physical design, along with a fast autofocus system, versatile focus clutch design, and a non-click, continuous aperture ring to suit video applications.

• The wide to normal zoom is designed for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras and offers an equivalent focal length range of 20-50mm.
• Impressively bright f/1.7 constant maximum aperture excels in low-light conditions throughout the zoom range and also offers improved depth of field control.
• Three aspherical elements, four extra-low dispersion elements, and one ultra-high refractive index element combine to suppress color stripes, chromatic aberrations, and spherical aberrations for high clarity, sharpness, and color accuracy.
• The fast 240fps autofocus unit, coupled with an internal focusing system, delivers smooth, precise and quiet focusing performance to benefit both still image and video applications. In addition, a focus clutch mechanism offers especially fast AF/MF switching.
• The physical aperture ring has a continuous clickless design for smooth and silent aperture change for the benefit of video applications.
• Splash, dust and freeze proof design works in adverse weather conditions.
• The nine-leaf rounded diaphragm contributes to a smooth and pleasant bokeh quality.
