96MP High Resolution Mode
In this mode, consecutive images are automatically shot while shifting the sensor using the Body Image Stabilizer (B.I.S.) mechanism. Then, the high-speed signal processing engine synthesizes the images into a 96-megapixel equivalent (12,000 x 8,000-pixel) file. This allows you to capture magnificent natural scenery and detailed works of art in ultra-high resolution without using a tripod.

Useful Features for Photo And Video Shooting
Extended Zoom Range
Crop Zoom / Hybrid Zoom extends the zoom range of both photos and videos. Hybrid Zoom is a combination of Optical Zoom and Crop Zoom. This function allows you to expand your range of expressions even if you only carry around minimal equipment.
Synchro Scan (Photo)
The LUMIX S9 synchronizes the shutter speed with the flicker frequency of the light source, reducing phenomena such as darkening and horizontal lines.
Focus on fast subjects
The Phase Hybrid autofocus ensures sharp images with both still and moving subjects. For video it guaranties your subject is always in focus, wherever in the frame.
Focuses on Subjects Quickly and Precisely
Phase Hybrid AF
With the LUMIX S9, you can focus quickly and precisely on your subjects thanks to the high processing power of the image sensor and engine, even in challenging scenarios such as pets and sports.
Ai-based Recognition Technology
Human/Animal/Car/Motorcycle
Deep Learning technology enables high-speed, high-precision recognition and tracking of humans (face, eyes, heads, and bodies), animals (eyes and bodies), cars and motorcycles. Whether it's your pet running around or cherished family moments, trust your camera to capture every detail in perfect focus.
Maintains Focus Persistently
AFC 30 fps burst shooting
The LUMIX S9 is persistent, keeping the subject completely in focus for 30 frames per second.
Clear Night View Photos and Handheld Videos
Capture with Confidence, Even in Unstable Situations
5-Axis Body I.S. / 5-Axis Dual I.S. 2
The LUMIX S9 comes equipped with body image stabilization. The 5.0-stop Body I.S. reduces camera shake even in dark surroundings resulting in slower shutter speeds. At telephoto range, 5-axis Dual I.S. 2, which combines Body I.S. and Lens O.I.S. controls, provides 6.5 stops of image stabilization.
Great for Shooting on the Move
Active I.S. + Advanced E.I.S.
The LUMIX S9 also makes it easy to shoot video on the move. Active I.S. determines the status of camera shake and optimizes correction ratios to compensate even for significant motion, while advanced E.I.S. suppresses perspective distortion that occurs during video shooting. So now you can capture beautiful images, even if you need to move quickly while the camera is rolling.
Slow & Quick Video
Express that moment in incredible slow-motion video without the need for special equipment or software. You can record 7.5x super slow-motion video*, and 60x quick-motion video.
*Max. 7.5x slow motion in FHD 24p/180fps. Max. 2.5x slow motion in C4K/4K 24p/60fps.
Time Lapse Video
The LUMIX S9 supports interval capture to create time lapse video in the camera body itself and is also capable of 4K 60p/50p. Exposure smoothing takes place during processing, resulting in beautiful time lapse videos with smooth exposure changes.
Extended Battery Life
Comes with battery pack DMW-BLK22
The camera comes with battery pack DMW-BLK22. You can also use the camera while powering it with a commercially available mobile battery and USB Type-C cable, ensuring it is always ready for use wherever you are.
Comfortably Capture any Composition
1840k-dot free-angle monitor
The LUMIX S9 features a free-angle monitor that can be rotated around 180 degrees to the left and right and 270 degrees up and down, enabling you to see the screen clearly at any angle, whether you are shooting mere inches from the ground or stretching up to capture a subject from up high. The monitor can be closed when not in use, reducing the risk of screen damage when carrying the camera around.
More Lenses = More Creativity
L-Mount
