Until reading the comments I didn't even realise that we didn't see sample footage side by side. That goes to show how perfectly engaging and well thought out the talking to camera was! Great video, thank you
I owned a GH4 and later added the GH5 then, when the G9 was released (and the initial price was lowered), I sold the GH4 and that paid for 50% of the G9. Since I am a proper hybrid shooter, I find the combination is perfect; the G9 is my B Cam and the GH5 is my backup stills camera. A few weeks ago I was asked to shoot a Soccer match and the G9 was on a monopod with the 35-100 f2.8 and the GH5 was on a strap around my neck (the neck strap was still in the original box) with the 12-35 f2.8
Honestly, this is one of the best comparisons I've ever seen on youtube. I'm currently in the process of deciding which I'm going to go for, as right now I can currently afford the G9 and don't have a camera, but in about 3 months I can afford the GH5 so just deciding whether it's worth the wait. Thank you for this review and comparison, it was brilliantly presented and went through literally everything I needed to know about without you making it really wordy and complicated like some other youtubers! Great work man, and thank you! I think I'm going to hold out for just a few more months and go with the GH5 :D
Thank you for this succinct, informative video. I have a G9 and am still learning how to use it, and did install the latest 2.0 firmware, so I'm good to go. For my needs, it should be more than sufficient. I appreciate and thank you for being straightforward with no hype. Cheers from Louisiana!
I am a fellow RUclipsr and have a channel too. I was searching a video comparison between the G9 (which I do have) and the Gh5, hoping it will cost less with the new GH5 mark 2. You made an interesting and relaxing video. Your English is awesome and how you made the video was so pleasing. I subscribed to your channel of course 🙏
Great thing about both cameras is that they sill hold their value for a while. 4k 60p is still only on the very high end models of rivals and much more expensive. Great investment with either
Very good comparison answering to a lot of questions people are wondering for. Where the g9 is better, where the gh5 is better. Even if it s known that globally the g9 is more for pictures and gh5 for videos you enter into the details and’it s great. Thanks for your work.
Great vid 👍 I’m a video shooter and purchased the G9 over the GH5. There’s a few things I wish were included with the G9 (usually while on a shoot 🙄) but I get over it quick, make it through, and footage turns out acceptable to my level. It’s a great camera.
Mohammad Rezaie I LOVE the more accurate skin tones, but I wish there was 10 bit at 4k/60 (biggest bummer). I’m still new to the G9 coming from the gh4 and OG bmpcc. But I notice a BIG difference when using v log in 8 bit and 10 bit.
Me, too. I would love 10bit at 4K60. Still bummed that even the GH5S doesn't do that. Have you seen the new Z-Cam E2-M4? It seems like a fantastic camera, for $1500! It does 4K up to 160FPS, all in 10bit!
I will start saving for a camera this september and I was and still am a bit confused on what camera to get. The G9 seems perfect although the sony alternatives do not seem bad either. I still am not 100% sure on what camera I will buy, that will also depend on the quality of the lenses and their price for each line of cameras. Anyways, thank you for clarifying the pros and cons of these 2 cameras, it definetily helped!!
It really depends on what you do. If you are always in control behind the camera, and you need good video, Panasonic is probably better if you're shooting slow moving subjects. If you're shooting sports/wildlife whether in video or photos and need powerful AF, Sony is the only system I would trust.
With the firmware update and the availability of the log upgrade the G9 was my first choice. It arrives next week. When the GH6 S version drops I will get that and the G9 will become the B-roll camera. The better AF was the final decider for me.
Thanks for the comparison,Mohammad!Strange ... everywhere G9 shutter speed is presented as with the mechanical shutter, 12fps with S-AF and 9fps with C-AF and with the electronic mode the camera can shoot up to 20fps with continuous autofocus and AE, and up to 60fps with the focus locked on the first frame.
Yes, that is true. I didn't specify the autofocus modes associated with the burst-rates. However, the G9 is faster both in AF-S and AF-C burst-modes than the GH5.
Nice viceo👍 looks G9 is the best choices, could you tell which is the best Mount Converter on video auto focus if I use canon lens such as sigma 18-35mm f1.8 on G9 ?
I use the Metabones Speedbooster Ultra, which is good for AFS, but not really usable in AFC in video. The advantage of the Speedbooster is that it gives one stop more light. so your Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 turns into a f/1.2!
@@AveryCaudill The g9 is 300€ less here in europe... I don´t think you would get an atomos for that ;) But I would still agree that it is a good investment to make
very good comparison and review, well informed on anamorphic and the trick to use the 6k photo mode to shoot 4:3 for anamorphic.. thanks for mentioning it, good to know the G9 is - unfortunately - still locked 30fps.
Hello Brother Mohammad, thank you for the comparison video well done. Does the G9 have a recording limitation when using 4K 10bit video and if so please tell me the maximum duration for this particular mode 4K 10 bit. Thanks
Does the G9 have record limit? I have a GH5 and two G85's but am looking to add a fourth camera that I can use for stills and as a B cam for videos when needed.
Great video! I'm looking into hybrid cameras for work. My current systems are great for stills but not video. If you were to buy a hybrid camera for work purposes would you get the GH5 or G9 or another option? (weather sealing, dual memory cards and some type of 10 bit recording are a must) Thanks for the help
Nice review, Mohammad, and very fair. Having owned both I find myself in agreement with your comparisons. Since I care nothing about photography, I'll say this about shooting video. Ease of use, in my book, counts for a lot. Context also has to be a factor that cannot be discounted in considering which camera to choose. If you're a content creator for youtube---do you really need All-I and 400 megabits files? Isn't Long GOP, 10 bit more than enough for youtube and other most other contexts??? I know professional S1H owners who opt to shoot video in Long GOP. There is such a thing as "overkill." How is "overkill" determined? By considering Context. What I'm driving at is this: I find the G9 better for video because of the improvement in color and image quality, better IBIS---and for simplicity of use. The image is killer good. Anamorphic would be nice, but not necessary. I have other cameras for that if I need it. DCI would be nice---again, but not necessary. Ease and simplicity, on the other hand, are necessary---essential. And the G9 has it. Man, is this thing fun to shoot! And yes, I've got to say it, if it were only better in lowlight. ;-(
@@FabledFew I'm no technocrat, but I don't see why they could not build a MFT camera with dual channel ISOs like the S5 and S1H. You could have the second kick in at 3200. That would really be fantastic. There's a LOT to be said for MFT cameras like this in general. The longer reach of lenses for one is a very important feature---much more than a wider field of view in, say, shooting wildlife. With sufficient light the MFT sensor is far superior in shooting intimate bird and animal shots, as well as shooting people from a distance. If higher, cleaner ISOs were implemented in MFT cameras they would have a whole new birth on the mirrorless market. And at longer focal lengths that precious bokeh is beautifully present. I, personally, actually prefer the simplicity of use of the G9. The only thing I don't care for thus far is the exposure of the slow motion being determined internally...and no 120. But, IMO, it's made up for with the better skin tones and improved color science. It would be great if it had been made to use that great Panasonic XLR unit they made. What a terrific tool for talking heads and interview shooting. Thanks again for your comparison.
@@avarmadillo better skin tones is a must for me, I have enormous difficulty getting good looking caucasian skin tones out of GH5 video in v-log!!! (if you compare to blackmagic pocket 4k or canon, they give almost instantly OK looking results). But unfortunately bpcc4k isn't ergonomical... Therefore I am looking at this G9, but the lack of codecs (even for social media use), makes it a difficult choice for delicate skin tones. Now, da vinci resolve free version unfortunately doesn't import GH5 footage, I have to transcode everything to prores which makes me wonder if atomos ninja V will gain better skin tones with gh5 even, or g9, then the internal codecs.
Do you think unlimited record limit and the XLR adapter is a valid reason to pick GH5 over G9? I'm trying to get something that's versatile and will suit many situations. I'm still rather new, and have no niche, so I don't want to spend too much on my gear. I just want it to work without getting in the way. I picked up an XT4, but it overheats like crazy so I'm sending it back.
Depends, do you find yourself shooting takes longer than 30minutes? If so, then yes. If not, you can get a much faster camera, and just use a small external audio recorder for your XLR audio needs. Really depends on what type of shoots you usually do.
You mean in the MFT line-up? Panasonic's full-frame S line is going strong, and Panasonic did say that they're working on the next GH camera, but it might not be out soon. It all depends on the sensor, and so far, there hasn't been a new MFT sensor.
Just got the g9 as a b cam and notice that the video quality is quite different imo, the gh5 seems to have a more filmic quality (which I love) than the g9. What’s your opinion?
I find that it's highly dependant on your picture profile settings. Check out my G9 cinematic settings video, I explain how I set up my picture profiles. And thank you for watching!
Merhaba Muhammed. Bir sey soracagim. Benim G9 cameram var ve cok fazla cekim yaparsam isiniyor ve ekranda tuhaf seyler cikiyor. Bazen de kilitleniyor. Sende de oluyor mu bu ?
According to the manuals G9's burst speed can be max 12 fps with mechanical shutter. Are you sure Lumix g9 can make 20 fps with mechanical shutter? It would be great.... (I am just about to buy this camera)
Also, recording time limits on the G9 are quite difficult to ignore if your primary use-case is video (as others have commented). But I *would* like a MFT camera with a somewhat usable continuous autofocus, which the G9 might be able to claim, but the GH5 certainly cannot. Do I really want to rig a G9 with an Atamos?
How about an EM-1 Mark iii with the Atomos Ninja V? Usable autofocus, and Prores Raw. Might be an option to look at if you're already invested in the mount!
If they can knock off another $300 o the GH5 then I will buy it. On the other hand, if they release another firmware for G9 to upgrade the video capability that similar to GH5 then I will buy the G9 right away.
I do hear 60p electronical shutter for photos, is this not a hidden 6K RAW video option (can you film/photo in panasonic RAW and then batch process to prores 422...)? How many seconds can you manage shooting 60p RAW?
The 60p electronic shutter for photos is limited to 8mpx or 4K. They call it 4K Photo mode. The G9 can also do 30p at around 5.2K, and when you connect your SD card to the computer, you'll find a 10bit 5.2K file, albeit at 3:2 aspect ratio. Check out this video where I talk all about it: ruclips.net/video/whIbE5AEAvU/видео.html
@@FabledFew yes, the 5.2K mode is interesting. I have a GH5 and used the 4:3 anamorphic 6K mode once with a sirui anamorphic prime 1,33x in order to get close to 16:9 in full resolution. The 3:2 mode probably is even better for that purpose, thank you for making me aware of that! I will check it out... Unfortunately it is still h265, and when comparing to BRAW footage from blackmagic pocket 4K, there are less colors. Though GH5 is sharper and it has IBIS. I was looking at G9 for a body with IBIS that has a better colorimetry or sensor then GH5, to bypass the internal codecs, but it seems using an external recorder with GH5 is what I need for my purpose (shooting in prores 422 HQ and 4K).
G9 лучше чем GH5 и больше Функции чем GH5 и хватит уже сравнивать после новой прошивки он стал лучше чем GH5 более модернизированный и лучше и все там отлично со временем с ёмки Читайте инструкцию, господа. какие использовать сд карты можно подумать что надо снимать целый день отличный аппарат G9
Mohammad Rezaie thank you. If i go with ninja v as an external recorder via hdmi it will be the same? Or in the same price range GH5 it’s a better option?
No, there are no record limits with the Ninja V. If you get the Ninja V, you also get access to 4K60FPS at 10bit (internal is 8bit only) so if you do require that, then it's a great purchase because it also doubles as a monitor. But if you don't, and you need a more compact setup, the GH5 would be a better purchase. GH5 is around $1600 now, which is roughly what a G9 + Ninja V would cost you.
Great video, very professional! Personally, l would've liked to see the video being filmed with both cameras (switching from one to the other), but l understand you probably wanted to have them both with you to show them, etc. Either way, very well made! Congrats!

How about an EM-1 Mark iii with the Atomos Ninja V? Usable autofocus, and Prores Raw. Might be an option to look at if you're already invested in the mount!
@@FabledFew Thanks! I'm seriously thinking in this direction, considering that hybrid AF on the Olympus is better than anything Panasonic has.
One of the major pains of the G9, for me, is the recording limit.
The G9 came out after the GH5, so if you are buying used then they cost about the same.
Very nice 👍 Ty for comparison.))
Thanks for watching!
If they can knock off another $300 o the GH5 then I will buy it. On the other hand, if they release another firmware for G9 to upgrade the video capability that similar to GH5 then I will buy the G9 right away.
Nice review, thanks!
I do hear 60p electronical shutter for photos, is this not a hidden 6K RAW video option (can you film/photo in panasonic RAW and then batch process to prores 422...)? How many seconds can you manage shooting 60p RAW?
The 60p electronic shutter for photos is limited to 8mpx or 4K. They call it 4K Photo mode. The G9 can also do 30p at around 5.2K, and when you connect your SD card to the computer, you'll find a 10bit 5.2K file, albeit at 3:2 aspect ratio. Check out this video where I talk all about it: ruclips.net/video/whIbE5AEAvU/видео.html
@@FabledFew yes, the 5.2K mode is interesting. I have a GH5 and used the 4:3 anamorphic 6K mode once with a sirui anamorphic prime 1,33x in order to get close to 16:9 in full resolution. The 3:2 mode probably is even better for that purpose, thank you for making me aware of that! I will check it out... Unfortunately it is still h265, and when comparing to BRAW footage from blackmagic pocket 4K, there are less colors. Though GH5 is sharper and it has IBIS. I was looking at G9 for a body with IBIS that has a better colorimetry or sensor then GH5, to bypass the internal codecs, but it seems using an external recorder with GH5 is what I need for my purpose (shooting in prores 422 HQ and 4K).
SIr who best video camra and photo in gh5 and gh9
thanks!
I like this camera!
Nice job!
Thank you for watching!
I'd rather have a G9, VLOG, and an Atomos than a GH5.
Can't go wrong with that combo!
Great video - thankyou
amazing video thank you ! :D
Glad you liked it!
Can I use GH5 for long exposure / landscape photography?
Absolutely. However, the G9 might be a better option since it has the High-Resolution feature.
Thank you .mer30 dadash
Thank you for watching!
The g9 is still a monster :) i love the gh5 but for a lot of reasons i chose the g9.
Good choice! I would choose the G9 over the GH5 for its million years better autofocus.
@@FabledFew is this also in video? Or only photo
Yogi NW is in video as well. I have G9 and I can confirm that.
G9 лучше чем GH5 и больше Функции чем GH5 и хватит уже сравнивать после новой прошивки он стал лучше чем GH5 более модернизированный и лучше и все там отлично со временем с ёмки Читайте инструкцию, господа. какие использовать сд карты можно подумать что надо снимать целый день отличный аппарат G9
Nice comparison
I wish G9 had a built-in flash like G95...
No built-in flash.
Thanx bro great job
Hi. On g9 what’s the time limit for recording in 4k and 1080p?
10 minutes for 4K 60fps, 30 minutes for everything else.
Mohammad Rezaie thank you. If i go with ninja v as an external recorder via hdmi it will be the same? Or in the same price range GH5 it’s a better option?
No, there are no record limits with the Ninja V. If you get the Ninja V, you also get access to 4K60FPS at 10bit (internal is 8bit only) so if you do require that, then it's a great purchase because it also doubles as a monitor. But if you don't, and you need a more compact setup, the GH5 would be a better purchase. GH5 is around $1600 now, which is roughly what a G9 + Ninja V would cost you.
Great video, very professional! Personally, l would've liked to see the video being filmed with both cameras (switching from one to the other), but l understand you probably wanted to have them both with you to show them, etc. Either way, very well made! Congrats!
I love my gh5
I do, too!
The GH5 wins hands down! By a long shot - there's no comparison.
