If the X100VI and the Lumix S9 had a baby with a 40mm f2 lens - would you buy this? 📸

I personally wouldn’t want fixed lens. The S9 has huge potential and I’m sure Panasonic will make it even better with the S9ii. I’d rather they take inspiration from the GX series. It needs a grip!

Why has the GH Series fallen off the map?

The GH7 is the best hybrid MFT-camera on the market if you look at the features. It has 25MP, the best hand held high res and pretty good DR for stills. It has a video performance that is better than most other cameras in the price range. It is an extremely reliable work horse for people who need to

The ZR booted up like, ‘bro, what is this?’

Great shots! Praying to the photography gods Nikon realizes if they put out a photo-centric in this body format, it could be a potential hit. It would compete with the likes of the Sony A7C series, Lumix S9, probably even Fuji offerings. Stick one of the more compact primes on it - and you have a gr

Which feature from rival brands do you wish Canon would finally copy, improve, and build into their cameras?

More compact bodies like the Lumix S9, Sony a6700, etc. With or without a viewfinder. R50V is the closest we have right now but I don't need the video focused aspects of it. A model or two focused on photography first instead of trying to be a hybrid camera. I mean really focused on photography. Lik

Why don’t we have a true pocket-size full-frame digital point-and-shoot?

You forgot the Panasonic S9 with a pancake lenses. The reason is that there’s no market for it. If you want to make it pocketable you need to sacrifice on lens quality and at that point what’s the point of full frame if lens cannot resolve it? The target audience for such cameras are using smartphon

What's the new sought after cameras today?

Sony FX3 is kinda where the consumer high end went. Lumix with the S5IIx is the best value for money right now. The Sony FX30/ZVE1 and Lumix S9 make for great small form factor video machines. Most of today’s cameras make a great image but are limited by how long you need them to run, cameras used t

A comparison of the Sigma 17-40mm f/1.8 Art & Fuji 16-55mm f/2.8 MK II

Yes. I'm shooting it on an X-S20 beside my Panasonic S9 with the Lumix S 24-60 f/2.8. The Sigma is actually the better lens than the Lumix S lens. Kinda crazy.

Why has the GH Series fallen off the map?

A lot of us have moved to full frame because of the low light, improved dynamic range and greater subject separation characteristics of that sensor size. I still love MFT and have a soft spot for my old GH5, but don't see the point in owning lenses from different mounts, so I'm prioritizing L mount

Can Panasonic please put G9 II's sensors on the S9 body?

I'm not a huge fan of the S9 body. It's more of a fashion accessory, and it's not even that small, all things considered (no EVF, no MSHTR - at least it's got IBIS). I would like to see the sensor in a G100 body - with IBIS. Probably not realistic though - both physically and considering how Panason

This true? Lmao can anyone confirm?

I have mixed feelings. Loads of companies do this. Panasonic Lumix used stock images to promote their S9 camera that were apparently taken with Nikon's. I think Nokia's been caught doing fake set ups in the lumia days. Is it OK? No - its false advertising. Are loads of companies doing this? Yep.
