Featuring a powerful new sensor and upgraded processing engine, the PANASONIC Lumix DC-G9 II is designed for content creators who need strong photo performance and sophisticated video options. Providing excellent image quality with rich tonal gradations and excellent color reproduction, this upgraded camera is equipped with a host of new features to bring your vision to life. The first Lumix camera in the series G to offer Phase Hybrid AF for fast and accurate autofocus performance, the G9 II utilizes new AI-powered recognition technology for real-time autofocus recognition that now recognizes cars, motorcycles, and animal eyes for greater accuracy in subject recognition. The camera also features 75fps continuous shooting with a pre-sequence shooting function, which allows you to rewind time in up to 1.5 seconds, so you can capture the perfect moment.

25.2MP Live MOS Digital Sensor and Upgraded Processor
Designed for high-speed, high-resolution imaging, the G9 II comes equipped with a 25.2MP Live MOS Micro Four Thirds sensor and an upgraded processor to create sharp, detailed photos and cinema-quality DCI 4K and UHD 4K video. This configuration maximizes resolution while keeping noise to a minimum, providing true-to-life color tones and lifelike three-dimensional images. Additionally, the G9 II features a high-resolution handheld mode that compiles multiple exposures to create a single 100MP raw or JPEG file.

4K video recording functions and video shooting assistance

• In addition to taking photos, the G9 II is a highly capable camcorder with unlimited recording up to DCI 4K and UHD 4K 60p with 4:2:2 10-bit color and for videographers who want to create high-resolution slow-motion videos, the camera also supports C4K/4K 120p video capture with 4:2:0 10-bit color.
• The Frame Indicator function surrounds the frame with a red border as you record, helping you avoid mistakes such as forgetting to press the record button.
• Simplifying the process of converting anamorphic videos into vertical videos for social media, the Frame Marker function allows you to record video while imagining the viewing angle when cropping in post-production.
• AWB Lock mode locks auto white balance to optimize efficiency in situations where the light source is variable indoors due to a mix of artificial and natural light, or in situations where manual settings based on color temperature would be required.
• The vertical position information function detects the vertical orientation of the video, allowing you to select whether or not to add the vertical position information of the video to the menu.
• An advanced Focus Transition function automatically changes the focus point at a constant speed to achieve accurate in- and out-of-focus points, delivering the stunning rack-focus film effect.

Professional-grade video versatility

• V-Log has been pre-installed on this camera and is used to capture a flat, neutral gamma curve, and more than 13 equivalent dynamic range points provide precise control of color data in post-production, as well as seamless editing with footage shot with VariCam cameras.
• With the Lumix G9 II, recording and playback are supported using an external SSD via USB. In addition, you have the ability to record ProRes 422 HQ and 4:2:2 All-Intra 10-bit directly to an SSD, which combines portability and high capacity for greater efficiency in data backup and post-processing.
• It supports ProRes 422 codec, offering excellent image quality with low compression. This significantly reduces the load on your computer during post-production and allows for non-linear editing without transcoding, streamlining your workflow from start to finish.
• Real-time LUT video recording to streamline your workflow and color grading.
• Supports . CUBE. VLT and .TXT for real-time V-Log View Assist to approximate the final appearance of your final product.

Phase Hybrid AF System
The G9 II is Lumix's first G-series mirrorless camera to adopt a Phase Hybrid AF system, which offers 779 phase-detection points to provide fast, accurate focusing for excellent AF accuracy. When it comes to autofocus, reliability is the most important thing, and with phase-detection AF you can fully complement and track the subject in six different situations that up to were now a challenge for conventional systems to capture. Whether taking photos or videos, this means that the G9 II persistently captures the intended subject in difficult scenes involving multiple people in backlit or low-light environments.

Image stabilization with 5-axis sensor-shift and Dual IS 2

• Helping to achieve maximum sharpness when working with the handheld camera, the Dual IS 2 combines image stabilization technology with 5-axis sensor-shift with 8-point camera rating and lens-based 2-axis image stabilization to compensate for a wider range of motion types to render sharper images. , sharper images. Dual IS 2 requires the use of OIS-compatible Lumix lenses. When working with adapted lenses, you can manually select whether you want to use in-camera sensor-shift image stabilization or optical lens stabilization.
• Designed for video applications, it features Boost IS, a digital image stabilization technology that aids in creating a stable composition when recording from a fixed perspective.
• New Active IS mode that corrects camera shake when shooting on the move. In addition, an improved EIS system corrects even greater camera shakes during operating situations.

Powerful photo features

• Equipped with a number of newly developed pre-programmed settings, the G9 II features the Leica Monochrome photographic style, which provides beautiful black and white scene creations.
• The Dynamic Range Boost setting creates a real-time HDR composite with a single exposure to rival the image quality of a full-frame camera.
• Live View Composite mode for night photographers capturing starry skies and fireworks.
• Enhanced pre-sequence shooting with 0.5, 1, and 1.5 second settings, allowing you to rewind time to capture those perfect moments.
• Continuous shooting rates of up to 75 fps when using the camera's electronic shutter or up to 14 fps when using the mechanical shutter

Body Design

• A high-resolution 3.68m-dot OLED EVF offers a sharp 0.8x magnification along with a smooth, variable refresh rate of 60fps or 120fps.
• The large 3.0" 1.84m-dot LCD is a bright and clear medium for live view capture, as well as playback and menu navigation. The screen features a free-angle design to suit high, low, and front angle work, and its touchscreen design allows for intuitive control of settings.
• An 8-way joystick and an easy-to-use menu design allow for quick and efficient operation.
• Dual SD memory card slots - both UHS-II compatible - offer greater flexibility for image storage, allowing you to assign raw and JPEG files to different cards, save duplicate files on both cards, or simply double your storage space with overflow recording.
• A USB Type-C port allows for fast file transfer as well as high-speed battery charging on the camera. In addition, an HDMI Type-A port benefits video applications, a 2.5mm port can be used with the optional DMW-RS2 remote shutter, and 3.5mm microphone and headphone jacks meet advanced audio recording needs.
