Missing the EVF big time , overall it's a great camera but I'm missing the EVF big time . I have the S5ii so this makes such a good everyday camera for the lumix family .

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Beautiful camera, great size. Image quality immaculate. LUMIX Lab App really makes this camera shine. Would like to see a mechanical shutter in the version 2. Hot shoe would not be bad. Good EVF would be nice. If the EVF is low quality then leave it off.

Hi there! Thank you for the fantastic review! We’re thrilled to hear that the camera’s size, design, and image quality are hitting the mark for you, and it’s great to know the LUMIX Lab App is helping bring out its full potential in your workflow. Your suggestions for future versions are truly appreciated. Ideas like a mechanical shutter, hot shoe options, and either a high-quality EVF or none at all are exactly the kind of thoughtful feedback that helps guide our next steps. Thank you again for the 5-star rating and for sharing such insightful notes. We’re glad the camera is inspiring your creativity!

It's hard not to like this camera. Photo and video quality is excellent, especially when paired with any of the Lumix prime lenses. Even the kit lens does a good job, but I'm not a fan that you have to partially telescope the lens to "activate" the lens, which basically means it's not really as small as it looks when at it widest aperture. The lack of an EVF is honestly not a big deal and I never once missed it. Throw a grip on it and call it a day. It's a fun camera to use that just so happens to deliver quality that rivals some cameras that cost quite a bit more. Also, the titanium colorway looks amazing. It's the ultimate 'dad cam' for anyone looking for better photos/videos than your smartphone without going to a full on workhorse type camera.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The S9 is a highly portable, full-frame camera — but don't let its compact size fool you. It is remarkably capable, with a slim profile, straightforward button controls, and simple operation. Most importantly, it takes great pictures.
I would recommend this to a friend!
