Panasonic G9 vs G90/G95 - Which To Go For? Filmmaker Edition
Vložit
- čas přidán 24. 07. 2024
- With the price of the G9 bring so close to the G90 here in the UK as I'm sure in the Rest of Europe and further, if you are new to the camera world and want to get into video first, photography second, which camera gives you the best features for your film making needs!
note: these are just my observations and thoughts based on other reviewers and specs I've researched, this is not gospel and both cameras are great and you will get great results with both 😊
Thanks for watching!

Very helpful video, thanks for making the decision easier !
This was perfect. I was considering getting the G9 over the G95 - now I'm not, so that saves some money. However, you said there are better 1080 options out there. (I will probably shoot most stuff at 1080, with some stuff at 4k so I can crop it.) What are those better 1080 options? My mate has the G85. They're on special at the moment... should I get that instead? Thanks in advance, Campbell from New Zealand.
More people should be talking about this. I have a G9 and GH5
I may trade the G9 for G90/95. Great points
The number of af points and ibis is stronger on g9 right?
My G95 can’t shoot 24fps 1080P. Only in 4k.
Please tell me if I’m doing something wrong. I checked the spec sheet too, same thing.
I've thought about the G90. I do own and use a G9. I don't shoot anywhere near 30 minutes, and if I did, I would use my 1080HD camcorder since 4K would be out of the question for editing.
Which brings me to comparing G80/85 to the G90/95. Is the additional cost worth it for a back up camera.
I use the g80/g85 and I think depending on price it might be a good option as a second camera as your g9 covers most of the G90 specs, plus a great commenter mentioned you can unlock the g9s record limit so for the future if you do need it, you have the option!
great info.. thanks :)
Taking in mind new improvements that are coming to G9, would you still back the arguments you made in this video? I am now deciding on what to get, and i'm debating between those two. I want to get used one, so they are similarily priced. Your video blow me away and now i'm stuck :D Can you elaborate or make another video after update of the firmware to compare them again? Thank you!
I've just done some reading for the g9, it looks like a huge update that's due on the 19th Nov, I might even do a video on this 😉

Does the G95 Have Time Limitations in 4K? I Know it Does Not In 1080P But I'm Unclear // Unsure About Limited in 4K?
Thanks in Advance and Great Video :-)
4K is unlimited
Great video! But can you or anybody help me with this question? I have de g95 and it is possible to shoot 120frames but when I import the footage into my editing software it is 30frames automatically. I´ve took a look into the settings and it´s set on highspeed mode 120fps bur apparently it´s also set on fhd 30 fps at the same time and you can´t change this setting to 24fps. I wanted to edit the framerate from 120fps in post but this is not possible when it´s automatically set and imported as 30 fps. Can somebody help me out here?
I would try different video editing software, you should be able to set the software to edit at any frame rate you want.
@Techkhamun I think you forgot to mention that the G9 has no 4K crop whereas the G90 has a much larger 2.26 4K crop. The G9 doesn't have many advantages but one of it's advantages versus the G90 is that it doesn't crop in 4K.
you mean , the g90 doesn't have many advantages ?
The g9 is better overall..
@@TypikSystemOFFICIEL Both camera's are good but the latest firmware upgrade for the G9, VLOG and uncropped 4K makes the G9 the best camera and hybrid shooter beween the two
4k crop doesn't matter at all. In filming, the G90 4K crop is an advantage for med to tight close ups. As for the 10bit 422, with the Ninja you can record 8bit 422 which is good enough for post. As for the G9's weakness is the 10 stop dynamic range for stills and lower at higher iSO... G90/95 IS WAY BETTER @12stops all around! as it includes vlogL and Live Composite View.
@@wtfkurtis 🙄😂🤣
@@Fell_Wanderer NO
This was a great video! I am in need for a new camera currently still using the FZ300 for my channel. I was debating and researching for quite some time and have been trying to make a choice between the G9 and the G90/G95. Your fantastic explanation made it clear to me that the G95 is the camera for me. Thanks so much! Subbed and liked. Awesome job!
Glad it was helpful!
Wow! Great that i bumped into this video. I had my eyes already set to g9 thinking that was the way to go. thanks for this. Change of plans.
G9 is better since new firmware
this video is outdated
and what about the continuous autofocus in video?
Mostly negative reviews. However, after the last FW update on the G9 I find it to be excellent.
You mentioned that there are better 1080p dedicated cameras. Which cameras would you recommend for dedicated 1080p?
The A6400 is about the same price and you get great AutoFocus, the footage looks great, as a bigger sensor so better low light and it does record in 4K so if you need it then it's there, the g90 here in the UK is about £500 now though, so that's probably the best camera for that price if you can deal with the slight crop in 4K and the autofocus not being great
@@Techkhamun a6400 has a big problem with shutter speed...
thanks dude
I agreed with the comments here that most of us will not be affected by the recording limit but here is a scenario I am going to face where it matter. With no crew to my disposal, I can leave the camera recording the entire event (a prize giving ceremony with some talent shows) and I am free to move around taking stills and B-rolls. No record time limit means I can just leave one camera on a tripod without needing to ever touch it and freely move around with a second camera. So thanks for the video. I am sure there are plenty of videos comparing G95 to GH5 so I am glad you did this instead.
I usually make standar videoblogs, but sometimes I film semiprofessional things and sometimes I take pictures. I am still an amateur filmmaker. People told me G9, but I prefer G90. What do you think?
Ana: What did you get and how is it going?
@@KutWrite probably still shopping / deciding. I would probably go G95/G90.
g90 is simply the perfect Bcam for the gh5s. just is the saver of dificulties on situations that GH5s got.
post data: Ihave both.
How does the update make the g9 compared to g90 ?
Please up date !
Your a g90 man !
Very helpful discussion. I'd say from a video/filmmaker viewpoint, the best comparison/rival would be the GH5, not the G9. The G9 is more aimed more for the photographer, not the videographer. I bought the G9 as a camera that will be mainly used for stills but can produce decent video when I need it. Had I been more of a videographer, I would have gone with the GH5. I think it's great to know you like the G95. I also have the G85 and will stick with it. Hopefully, Panasonic will work on its video autofocus which is lagging behind its competitors.
but isnt the g9 new improved auto focus? with the new firmware
G95 auto focus is very good if you know what you're doing
So... what is the camera better that's better at 1080p than these?
I would say the Canon M50 but just my opinion, I've used it and the colours and auto focus is just so easy plus it's cheap! I wouldn't say it was the best but definitely one of the best
@@Techkhamun: Yeah, Canon or Nikon seem to be the IBM of the visual arts. No one ever got fired for buying their products.
brooo I'm surprised at your comments about AVCHD.
AVCHD grades better than MP4 and it's easy to share on PC (just issues if you're editing on a mac). AVCHD also somehow is a better quality file.
True 🙏
True 🙏
Now with he great firmware update for the g9 the story looks different. G9 allmost turned into a gh5
Yes Great Point Mentioned,, However i wouldn't Care About GH5 At Any PRICE..Because of ITS Major AF FAILURE :/
IF You Cant Count on Auto Focus, Why even Waste Your Money?
i realize that issue goes for most All Panasonics & Or M4/3 Bodies
Panasonic Needs a Totally NEW Sensor Design to Get Around this CRAZY FAILED FLAW,
I'll Pay the PRICE..Just Give it to Us Panasonic & Quit Screwing Off making Tons of FAILED MODEL Cameras
Hit it Out of the BALL PARK With One GRAND SLAM CAMERA PLEASE :-)
@@chevypowertogo-9070 i am happy with the af in my gh5 . Its not as good as sonys but for must use scenarios its good enough. Using manual focus is better for many use cases anyway . Filmmakers dont use af. Its only the hoby guys who think they need perfect af if the jump in and out of the frame like idiots.
I have a GH5 and g85 which I have built my channel on and AF is nice to have but manual focus is far more professional and accurate for all the work I need for now, I will say though I do which is had better auto focus for some tracking shots but depending on what you need, I would rather have a GH5 with 10 bit colour than 8bit colour from the Sony A7iii even though the Sony has very good autofocus. I also will say that using the GH5 you do need to think about lighting a lot more but the full frame S5 seems to be great, just wish it didn’t have the record limits
@@Techkhamun i also have gh5 and g85 . g85 is nothing special in 2021 but i still like it a lot.
Clever screen name. ;)
Techkhamun has some great points about the G90 being better than the G9 but the video is outdated due to the new firmware update. We should keep that in mind.
I did do an updated video my friend on this topic, not sure if you looked on my channel for it but hopefully you get a chance to check it out! I have moved away from cameras similar to TheEverydayDad just due to unsupportive nature in the community both he and I have experienced! There are some great people in this community but I have found a lot of negativity compared to the tech side
1. Panasonic promotes the G9 as a camera designed for stills that has video capabilities. I think the G95 is an all around camera like the G85. If you want to compare the G95 with Panasonic's flagship video camera that would be the GH5.
2. The "time limit" of the G9 can be easily overcome with a hack that is readily available online. The limit exists because of a law (tariff) in Europe. In some cases Panasonic has made 2 cameras 1 for US and another for Euro, eg. G80/G85 ....G80 has time limits. US model G85 has no time limits. I don't know if that applies to the G90/G95.
3. The fact that the G9 does not do 1080P at 24fps is easily overcome if you are uploading your videos. I typically make videos on my G9 at 4K 24fps and then upload them at 1080P to get a sharper video.
4. I could go on, but my real issue with your video is the the fact that you are making an argument rather than explaining the differences between the G9 and G90/G95. I own a G9 and love it. I will probably also get a G95. I don't see Panasonic replacing one with the other.
Great points!! Point number one, I completely get that, and these cameras were never designed to be compared but I did it anyway as I did get a comment on my last video and I thought it would be interesting myself, plus for those new into the camera game, people will be comparing the two due to price so I wanted to put my opinion on which to get if you are looking at video. It's not designed to compete but people will compare the two for sure! Your second point is to do with a hack, I'm not sure Panasonic would still keep the warranty if someone hacked it (also what if you don't want to hack your brand new camera) plus I'm talking about it as I do live in the UK, US viewers this point is irrelevant, I should have mentioned that in my video 🙈🙈 Point three you are talking about recording 4k 24p and uploading in 1080p but my point with that comment is for those who don't want extra rendering times for time sensitive projects this isn't an option is there? Let me know if there is by the way, love to hear it 😊. Your last point, I think it sounds like I hate the g9 🙈 I promise I dont, you are right it's awesome I have used it as friends have got it, I just wanted to help those who had about £1000 and didn't know which to choose for video that doesn't know much about cameras. I probably should have been fairer and I'm sorry for that, I'm still learning please don't hate 😂🙈 thanks for your awesome comment 😊
@@TechkhamunThanks for the reply. As far as the "hack" is concerned, it's important to remember that the time limit is imposed only because of a European law which I think has now been changed. AND the hack is fully supported since all it entails is putting the camera into the "service mode". Nothing illegal or underhanded about that since it is a procedure that Panasonic prescribes for camera repairs. This procedure is available online and it has not been taken down or otherwise blocked.
@@artjohnson01 Art Johnson Thank you for the information, honestly really appreciate it! I do believe the ban was actually an additional import tax as it would be classed under a different camera type. Very strange tax haha but I think you are right that it is now lifted. Could you help me find the "hack" for the G9, I think viewers would love to have access to it and I wouldnt want to reference the wrong thing seeing as you know a bit more about the hack than me lol
@@Techkhamun There are several videos on CZcams regarding removing the time limit on the G9. Here's the one that pops up first. czcams.com/video/0qzBWdaY634/video.html. I haven't done it yet, but probably will soon. The truth is that I rarely run up against this as a problem. For nearly 2 years I made videos using a G7 and never had a problem with the time limit. I never needed 30 minutes. Who talks for 30 minutes uninterrupted (other than politicians?). Your video on this topic was only 9:28?
To be fair it is very rare that I needed more than 30 minutes but there are lectures and speeches that do go on a bit from my experience! I haven't done weddings just yet but I do know of wedding videographers that say 30 minute limit would be a completely rule out a camera, but for CZcams and commercial ads for small businesses you are right 30 minute limit isn't a problem, just a few gigs I have done it has been an issue. Also thank you for the link and the comments, very engaged in what you are saying 😊👍🏼
Ya but u cna do 10 but 422 now on the g9 and that includes vlog, it’s close to the gh5 period bro g90 is like a Sony 6100-6400 in my opinion which i still like the Sony over the g90 man, the g9 is a still camera number one and video 2 also if u want he best video get a used gh2
The G9 was primarily a photography camera for video spend a few more hundred dollars get a GH5. The G95 by naming sounds like a baby G9 it is not it is a baby GH5
SORRY BUT You MADE IT Sound as IF The G9 IS Missing 4K @60P?//= NO 60FPS at 4K? =You Clearly SAID G9 4K 24P & 30P No Other FPS Mention?
However ITS MY Understanding That The G9 HAS GREAT 4K @ 60FPS
Sorry I thought I did mention the G9 had 4k 60p about 2 minutes in? And it's great quality 60p but the 10 minute record limit might put off film makers who film longer than 10 minutes but i guess it at least has that option if you need some quick clips!
@@Techkhamun YES And Its Crazy how G95 Unlimited Same Brand being Panasonic Yet they windup limiting the Pan G9 :/ is Yours a USA Ver? if Not
It makes me wonder if the Usa Vs Eu Limited Vs USA Unlimited Apply Here?
:-) Thank You Techhamun
I was watching this and realized it's 3 years old. The G9 will do fantastic 120fps 1080p and even great 180fps. It also has the ability to choose any frame rate between 2fps and 180fps... it's beautiful 😆
this is what happens then comparisons are made from paper. Misleading information.
Please let me know what specs I've said that have been misleading, I will be more than happy to correct them!
