Panasonic LUMIX S9 Mirrorless Camera (Black)
Stylish, High-Performing, and Travel-Friendly
Packing the power of full-frame into an ultralight and compact build, the Panasonic LUMIX S9 Mirrorless Camera, presented here in black, is the perfect on-the-go camera for content creators. While smartphones continue to advance in their photo and video capabilities, a uniquely small full-frame system such as the S9 provides you with significantly more power without the burden of the size of a typical mirrorless or DSLR camera. A 24.2MP full-frame sensor is utilized within the S9, which makes creating high-quality images much easier, even in dimly lit situations. You also have the advantage of choosing from numerous L-mount lenses to suite your needs. Overall, the simplicity and convenience of the S9 makes it an excellent tool for elevating your ability to quickly create and share impactful images.
Connect and Share Instantly
Getting your photos and videos onto your smartphone quickly is a massive benefit offered by the S9. With improved connection speed and stability, users are able to easily link their device to the S9 in a few simple steps with the LUMIX Lab app.
Real Time LUT (Signature Presets)
Create your own signature presets on your smartphone and transfer them to your S9, so you can apply them to your photos while you're shooting, not after. This gives you a precise idea of what your finished photos or videos will look like and is a massive time saver. You can download creators' LUT from the official LUMIX website.
Extend Your Range with Crop and Hybrid Zoom
The crop zoom function utilizes the center of the camera sensor to extend the normal zoom range while maintaining image quality. The hybrid zoom function utilizes both optical and crop zoom to extend the focal length even further.
L-Mount Lens Selection
Based on your shooting needs, complement your S9 with one of the many superb L-mount lenses. With more than 80 lenses to choose from, the possibilities of images you can create are boundless. Maintain the small and lightweight nature of the S9 by pairing it with the LUMIX S 26mm f/8, or go with a more versatile, but slightly less portable option like the LUMIX S 20-60mm f/3.5-5.6 lens.
More Camera Benefits
  • 30 fps pre-burst shooting
  • MP4Lite video, which is a new video file format optimized for fast uploads
  • Real-time LUT button
  • Autofocus detection for human, animal, car, and motorcycle subjects
  • Time-lapse and stop-motion animation video recording modes

Panasonic LUMIX S 18-40mm f/4.5-6.3 Lens (L-Mount)

Touted as the world's smallest and lightest full-frame zoom lens, the 5.5 oz, 1.6" long Panasonic LUMIX 18-40mm f/4.5-6.3 Lens brings high resolution from corner to corner in a unique zoom range for a flexible, versatile, carry-around lens. Suitable for landscapes, buildings, and snapshots with a natural perspective, the lens also provides subtle bokeh when shooting subjects with the maximum aperture and at the minimum focusing distance of 5.9". The lens achieves its high sharpness and small form factor with the help of an optical design featuring three aspherical elements, two extra-low dispersion elements, and one ultra-high refractive element. Used with the LUMIX S9's Hybrid Zoom function, the lens can achieve a zoom range of 18-120mm. The lens also benefits video shooters by suppressing focus breathing.

In addition to its lightweight and portable design, the lens' construction is dust, splash, and freeze-resistant for use in adverse weather conditions. The front element also has a fluorine coating to repel water, oil, and other debris.

Panasonic S9 Reviews

Still new to it but impressed

By Amy
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2026-05-27

I am still playing with it - I got this to replace my Nikon DSLR…just wanted something lighter and easy to travel with. Plus my kids are older so now most of what I take is just on vacation or holidays. So far so good - the colors are great and I shoot in manual and the controls have been easy to figure out. I did watch a few You Tube videos otherwise pretty self explanatory. Great for indoor lighting and outside - there is no flash nor mount but I don’t take a lot of photos in low light or dark so it’s been fine so far for me. Seems to do what I need - test will be when we head to Copenhagen and Stockholm in a few weeks. Can’t wait to really test it out…as much as my dogs love being my models…LOL

Un sensor enorme en un cuerpo pequeño

By Hector Ivan
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2026-04-10

Es un muy buen equipo fotográfico. El lente de Kit no es malo, pero es oscuro y deforma más de lo que quisiera, sin embargo, es pequeño aunque para ser operativo debe extenderse y la cámara deja de sentirse compacta. No es precisamente una cámara compacta, yo la veo más como un sensor full frame operativo en el espacio mínimo posible. La interfaz de panasonic no me encanta, pero usando la cámara en manual con un exposímetro externo y usando focales fijas es como usar cualquier cámara profesional, así que cumple bien, dispara rápido y el resultado es lo que uno esperaría. Buena compra.

Can you run it off of usbc power?
Asked by: Beji
Yes, the Panasonic Lumix S9 can be powered by inserting the battery into the camera for charging. You can record while the camera is being charged. To supply power to the camera body, you can use a commercially available AC adapter and USB connection cable. It's recommended to use an AC adapter with 15W output or higher. These 2 items are not included with the camera.
