Panasonic Lumix S9 review

The Lumix S9 is put under the scope to find out if this compact camera delivers on its promise... or misses the mark

At a glance

Undeniably focused more towards video than stills, this is nonetheless a full-frame camera at an attractive price. For me, the lack of a viewfinder is its biggest drawback, but that may not be an issue for the way you work. It’s certainly a capable performer that produces great results.

PROS: Price, range of features (for stills and video), companion app,  AF system, ISO performance

CONS: Lack of viewfinder, no handgrip, battery life not great – particularly when shooting video
