An absolute joy to use!

I am a retired professional photographer - the S9 is a thoroughly enjoyable and very capable camera to create with. I have used other brands in my career, but the colours, dynamic range and operating system in this camera is superb. The lens options are great - from current offerings to the options of vintage lenses. The LUT library is a fantastic addition; the SOOC jpgs are excellent, along with the Hi- Res photo option. Do I miss the lack of a viewfinder? No. We are all use to using our phones for taking photos, so this is an easy transition. The linking of your phone/pad for instant editing and sharing is well implemented and very reliable and useful. This camera is a real gem!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I am a long time owner of a Lumix micro four thirds camera, so thought I would finally upgrade to a full size. I am over 50 so I value having an actual instruction manual to refer to on how to do something. This does not come with a manual and I have wasted hours trying to figure out how to do certain items on the camera. Yes, you can possibly Google or watch a Youtube video but those too are time consuming to find exactly what you are looking for when I could have gone to an index and immediately found what I wanted to know. Gone are those days and for that I rate it a 4 out of 5 stars. Thank goodness many of the icons are the same between my two cameras so the learning curve is not as steep as it might be for someone who has never had a Lumix DSLR camera before.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hi Tobey! Thank you for your continued trust in Lumix and for sharing your feedback. We understand how helpful a detailed manual can be, especially when upgrading. An advanced digital manual is available on our official FAQ page to help you quickly find detailed guidance. We’re glad the familiar icons have made the transition easier, and your feedback helps us improve the experience for all users.
