Take a quick look at the new to be released Panasonic LUMIX GX9 mirrorless camera.
Panasonic has just anounced a new Digital Single Lens Mirrorless camera, the LUMIX GX9, in a sleek, compact design – the LUMIX GX9. Boasting high image quality and creative freedom, the LUMIX GX9 lets users shoot vibrant, true-to-life, high-quality images with high resolution, high contrast and impressive color reproduction. The 20.3-megapixel Digital Live MOS Sensor without low-pass filter attains the maximum performance of the lens and the Venus Engine renders high-precision yet natural images.
The LUMIX GX9 incorporates 5-axis Dual I.S.(Image Stabilizer) for more effective suppression of blur.
It integrates a new LVF (Live View Finder) 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 Contrast AF System features DFD (Depth From Defocus) technology and excels in both speed and accuracy by exchanging digital signal between the camera and the lens at max. 240 fps*1, resulting in ultra-fast auto focusing of approximately 0.07 sec*2.
L.Monochrome D mode is newly added to Photo Style, making it possible to shoot dynamic monochrome photos with emphasized highlights and shadows while preserving the details. Plus, grain effect can now be adjusted in all monochrome modes in Photo Style.
The LUMIX GX9 includes Bluetooth and Wi-Fi® connectivity to offer a more flexible shooting experience and instant image sharing with easy operation. Compatibility with Bluetooth 4.2 (called BLE: Bluetooth Low Energy) enables constant connection with a smartphone or tablet with minimum power consumption.
