What is your bag mate?
Thank you for your breif but well done review. I really am enjoying shooting with my fairly new GX9 and the Lumix Leica 15mm (30mm equivalent) lens. It is great and really perfect for "street photography". If you want a small, compact, light and versitle camera this GX9 is terrific.
Sorry, but the images you took suck… Not a very convincing review.
Hey guys, looks like someone is ripping off your reviews (they reuploaded mine too).

Thank you for your very detailed and short review. You did a great report.
Great review, Matt has a wonderful delivery. And regarding the camera thank goodness Panasonic introduced the tilt screen as opposed to the flip out screen in the GX8…it is far quicker to use and far less obtrusive, well done Panasonic, this is a brilliant specialised street and documentary camera.
You're looking for a better choice than the GX9, very less expensive, much better equipped ? Try the GX8… And with the money you save, buy a good lens : 25 f:1,4 Panasonic or 12-40 Olympus.
And look at the 75 F/1.8 for portraits…
Panasonic GX9 or Olympus OMD 10 mk iii
As a videographer this camera seems pretty great to me. I'm looking for a street photography camera that can also be my B-cam to go with my GH4 and this has very similar specs. No it doesn't have audio connections but I wouldn't ever try connecting anything to this anyway, just use an external recorder or record on GH4.
gx9 have 4k photo mode ?
5 axis important for camera nowadays dude, excelent choice 👍
I like that it has tilting but not fully articulating screen. There are already several micro four thirds cameras with fully articulating. We didn't need another. For street shooting I much prefer quick up and down tilting. Looks like an excellent camera!
What lense did you use to shoot?
Can someone tell me the name of the artist/band and the song at 0:36 please?
The GX9 is actually the successor of the GX80/85, which in turn was the successor of the GX7. In Japan they are named GX7 – GX7 mkII – GX7 mkIII. This should explain a lot.
Hi, thanks for your video, can u tell me how to set a fixed middle focus point or am I old fashioned wanting this. I could not do it on the gx8, got a gx85 and send it back, now I have the gx9 but I don’t want my face to mess up the focus on touch screen and rather a fixed point. Thanks for your time
Lindas fotografias!!!
Any way for my face not messing with the focus points when left eying the view finder ?
Great video with superb shots and succinct info.
How would this compare with the A7 or A7ii in terms of photo and video of kids? I need video and photo autofocus, low light iso and good colour depth.
