Digital Camera Description

The Panasonic Lumix G9 is a Mirrorless Digital Camera with a Four-Thirds sensor and a Micro Four-Thirds lens mount. Its 20 Megapixels CMOS sensor offers an ISO 200-25600 sensitivity range which is expandable to ISO 100-25600. This makes it possible to shoot hand-held in very low-light. With 20 MP of resolution, sharp prints are possible up to 22" x 16" at 240 DPI.

A builtin 5-Axis Image Stabilization mechanism allows the Panasonic Lumix G9 to compensate for camera shake up to 6.5-Stops beyond hand-holding with any mounted lens.

This camera features a hybrid shutter that can expose for 1/32000 to 1m. This camera can make Bulb exposures up to 30m. With a fastest shutter-speed of 1/32000, fast action can easily be frozen. Night photography is possible using this digital camera due to its long exposure capability. This camera model offers Full Manual Controls.

The Panasonic Lumix G9 features a 225-point Contrast-Detect AF system. Autofocus can continuously adjust according to subject distance. Manual Focus is also available.
