It is a great camera in its own way, and if you really want the best low light performance then it is a better choice than the G9- unless your scenarios can benefit from IBIS. Still V1.0 FW, hopefully they have some tweaks coming.Mainly Panny Leica 25 vs EF 50 1.2. And that's before you get to personal needs and preferences in terms of lens quality, available lens range, color response, ergonomics.A) They are based on similar technology (sorry Medium Format CCD)"The aspect Nikon didn't promote at the time of the D610's launch was that the new shutter may also have been intended to address the D600's reputation-damaging dust/oil problem."from the review "The Function Lever finally makes it possibly to turn on settings like Face Detect with a single action - something you couldn't previously do on a Panasonic without a trip to the menus."What’s the best camera for under $2000? I only want one more lens to complement the 100-400.
I would pay premium for that.I was referring to preferring a proper camera, rather than a phone camera, no matter how good people think a phone camera is.Wow, a year later and no answer. Lack of AA filter in G9 makes a considerable difference...I'm not going to comment on macro distances, since that's not my area of knowledge and I know all the 'normal' rules start to break down as you get very close.We've updated our 'best cameras over $2000' buying guide, and the Sony a7R IV is now our favorite mirrorless camera in the $2000-4000 price range. I would have thought it was a discussion about the merits of reduced sensor size in compact mirrorless cameras, and the trade off of sensor size vs function, but it seems that a pile of MFT shooters, presumably including yourself, take this as a personal affront.well, my english isnt the best. G9 needs more than a second to write even ONE JPG shot!!! ;)So, the G9 got a silver award for 'playing catch-up to a camera released more than a year ago', while the D610 (launched two years after the D600) got a gold award for having solved the dust/oil problem?? On sale now for $1197.99 I believe, at B&H and probably every other authorized reseller.You can say whatever you like but the G9's ISO 100 is very good, in contrast to the unusable ISO 100 from the XT 2.Well, I figured I should come back and say that Panasonic released firmware version 2.0 for the G9. Well, that's for what I shoot.Panasonic's taken a page out of Olympus' book - as other manufacturers with stabilized sensors recently have - and added a High-Resolution mode that shifts the sensor to build an 80MP file - this should be hugely appealing to still life and landscape shooters occasionally requiring resolution greater than that of a Micro Four Thirds camera.The X-Pro2 (which I owned) has a relatively tiny EVF, lags in autofocus compared to the G9, plods along with only a single slow SD card with a shallow buffer and no focus stacking or ability to reliably focus at -4 EV. The real point is these are two totally different cameras. On Panasonics factory Outlet site you can search for compatible lenses for your camera by the camera model. So while any micro 4/3 lens will connect up it may not offer maximum compatability. You cannot just ewxchange lenses. It’s supposed to be cheap and small."Detail captured in Raw is on par with the GH5, which is no surprise - it is also similar to that of the Olympus E-M1 II. Since Panasonic G9 has a Four Thirds sensor, it has a focal length multiplier of 2x so you have to multiply lenses original focal length with this multiplier to find the Full Frame equivalent focal length of the lens when mounted on G9. ;-)My bad on forgetting about the dual cards on the Pro2.

Its only been out since Sept. I'm considering this as a recommendation for a friend.Watching a video about the G9 (Three Blind Men and an Elephant) the Panasonic rep explains that the lens feeds info to the camera before you focus and it uses that info to be ready to focus when you choose to do so.
The Oly 45 is a great lens *for the price*, but is NOT as sharp nor as consistent across the frame as the Nocticron.I couldn't have said it better!If you download the original files and look at the histograms, the difference between the two exposures is insignificant.It might not have the best image quality, but an F1.2 lens for just $350? There are some out-of-camera shots in the gallery like the tree with yellow leaves.E1 still makes fantastic images with it's fantastic lensesThe strength of smaller format is that it can be smaller, less expensive, maybe better at video.Canon's EOS R5 mirrorless camera is the second-highest megapixel camera body the company has released, and now that we have a final model in our offices, we've set it up in front of our test scene to see what it can do.Assuming the following caveats:The new CFExpress Type A cards offer read and write speeds up to 800MB/s and 700MB/s, respectively, and come in 80GB and 160GB capacities.If it is anything like Panasonic GM1 at ISO 6400 then you are good to go :-)For starters, its faster than its video-centric sibling, capable of an impressive 20 fps with continuous autofocus for about 50 frames using the electronic shutter.
