High Image Quality with Real-to-Life Detail and Impressive Color Reproduction
The LUMIX GX9 lets you shoot vibrant, true-to-life high quality images with excellent resolution, high contrast and impressive color reproduction. The 20.3-megapixel Digital Live MOS Sensor without low-pass filter drives the maximum performance of the lens and the Venus Engine renders high-precision yet natural images. L.Monochrome D mode in Photo Style makes it possible to shoot dynamic monochrome photos with emphasized highlights and shadows yet keeping the details. Grain effect can now be adjusted in all monochrome modes in Photo Style.
5-Axis Dual I.S. (Image Stabilizer) and Minimum Shutter Vibration for Stable Shooting
5-axis Dual I.S. is effective suppression of blur. Combining a Lens Image Stabilizer (2-axis) and a Body Image Stabilizer (5-axis), it compensates for a larger range of movement than ever before. You can enjoy blur-free photo/video shooting from wide to tele, even in low light situations.
An electromagnetic drive in the shutter unit reduces the shock caused by the movement of shutter diaphragm, and minimizes the shutter sound. You can release mechanical shutter even in the situations where they had no choice but to use electronic shutter.
High Speed Response and Practical AF/MF Options
The Contrast AF System with DFD (Depth From Defocus) technology* excels in both speed and accuracy by exchanging digital signal between the camera and the lens at max. 240 fps, resulting in ultra-fast auto focusing of approximately 0.07 sec**.
A variety of AF functions and advanced Low Light AF enhance usability to comply with wide-ranging shooting situations. Live View Boost helps you to check the composition even in total darkness.
* Works only with Panasonic Micro Four Thirds lenses.
** In AFS, at wide-end with H-FS14140 (CIPA).
Intuitive Control with Tiltable LVF (Live View Finder) in Sleek Design
The LUMIX GX9 integrates a new LVF that tilts up by approximately 80-degree. With approximately 2760k-dot equivalent high resolution and approximately 100% color reproduction, this 16:9 Wide Screen LVF boasts approximately 1.39x / 0.7x (35mm camera equiv.) magnification and 100% field of view. The new 3.0-inch large, approximately 1240k-dot high resolution static-type touch monitor with approximately 100% of field of view tilts up by approximately 80-degree and down by 45-degree which enables shooting in either high or low angle even easier.
Ultra High-definition 4K Video and 4K PHOTO for Unmissable Moments
The LUMIX GX9 is capable of recording smooth, high-resolution 4K video in 3840x2160 at 30p, 25p or 24p in MP4. Taking advantage of 4K technology, you can capture the fleeting photo opportunities at 30 fps in 8-megapixel equivalent resolution to save it as a 4K PHOTO. Auto Marking and Sequence Composition are newly added in addition to Post Focus, Focus Stacking, Light Composition and 4K Live Cropping to make 4K PHOTO even easier-to-use, in more creative way.
