Panasonic Camera With In Body Stabilization

[JPEG, Raw] I'm really pleased with this new sensor, and having in-body stabilization is a big plus.

[Presets - Yes] Ive been using Panasonic camcorders for several years now and each one keeps getting better. This camera has solid optical stabilization, good auto focus and all the things i look for in a camera. Only one small complaint i have it on the V770 that i came from, this model doesnt allow you to turn on the led light from the main screen. You have to go into the menu which is a paid, but not a deal breaker.

[67 mm (Front)] I've had this lens for a couple weeks now and so far, I like it. For the price, I am satisfied with the capabilities. If you buy this lens knowing it is not going to be the same quality as a $2,500+ native lens, I don't think you're going to be disappointed in it. It can be a little slow to focus and sometimes focus is a little soft, but that is probably more from user error on my end than the actual lens itself. I like being able to have that extra reach so I can start learning how to shoot wildlife and practice my skills while I still save up for one of the native telephoto lenses. I'm pairing this lens with a z6ii and it seems to do well with it. My camera does handle higher iso's alright so the 6.3 hasn't been a deal breaker. I probably wouldn't pair this lens with a with a camera that doesn't have in body stabilization because even when I shoot handheld at shutter speeds over 1000, I do get some softness from camera shake. It would probably be far worse if my camera didn't have the in-body stabilization.

[7.7 Wh] A great camera. Full frame premium sensor, five axis in-body stabilization... The electronic viewfinder is a wonder, and even better than the one I was used to with the A77 I already had. Forget about "chimping" at the LCD after each shot as other brands users will keep being used to: you only take the eye from the viewfinder when you want to. After all, the image you see there is already VERY close to the picture you will take (the camera is smart enough to take in account ISO-shutter-aperture settings, of course), and even if you want to review it you will be able to do that there in the viewfinder. This revolutionary approach changes your way of capturing what you see.

[Yes] I have a Olympus OMD 1 with a half a dozen pro lenses I needed a backup with 4K video capability. In the few weeks I’ve been using the GX9 it has become the body I use the most. The software on the camera is easy to figure out much easier than the Olympus. The lens that came with it is not the best I don’t even take it with me as I have the Olympus pro lenses when I just want to be carrying something thats in a small package I use the Panasonic 14-42 f. 3.5 To 5.6 it a little slow but the camera can fit into my jacket pocket. If I could turn back the clock I would only have Panasonic body’s the lens by Olympus are better for me.

[58 mm (Front)] The Panasonic 14-140mm lens has a range that's hard to beat. It's optical stabilization works together with the stabilization in-body. It's a very sharp lens.

[58 mm (Front)] The in body stabilization makes this thing a superstar. Regardless of f stop and light level, each image comes in crisp. Need to do a 1.5 second night exposure hand-held? No worries, mate. The controls, once mastered, are fast and intuitive.

[2.8 lb] Nice and bright, fast focus and great vibration reduction. Active stabilization on the body combined with the lens' stabilization make for an excellent combo if shooting video.

[f/5 to 6.3] This is simply a great and versatile lens for wildlife and birding. What you get is a 200mm to 800mm full-frame equivalent lens. I mostly use it at f/7.1 or f/8 and find it to be very sharp. It’s not a pro lens, but it has all the features of one. In fact, it’s much better than any third-party lens I’ve used with APS-C and full-frame bodies. The lens stabilization is good but could be improved a bit, especially for faster lock on subject and better compatibility with in-body stabilization. Additionally, I wish it could be lighter. For optimal use, consider pairing it with an external grip on an OM-5 body. (note: files are not jpg from OM-5 but processed with exteranl software) Highly recommended – 5 stars

[2,360,000 Dot] I am impressed by the features packed in such a compact body especially the 5 axis image stabilization that works really well in the videos. The image quality is really good. My Nikon D5600 DSLR might have slightly better image quality but the portability and features makes me want to use this more. The only downside is that the battery life could have been better and they should have provided a separate charger. I am not a fan of in-camera battery charging. But you can find a generic one on ebay for less than 10$ so not really a big issue.
