According to the latest rumors surfaced over the web, the new Panasonic camera has been confirmed as the LUMIX S9. It will be released on May 22/23 (depending on the local time difference). This entry-level, interchangeable lens full-frame camera focuses on video capabilities. It has a dedicated LUT button that allows users to switch between different LUT filter effects (similar to the film simulation switch knob on the Fuji XT50) and supports custom LUTs. It is equipped with the same 24 million pixel CMOS sensor as the Panasonic S5 II / S5 IIX, does not have an electronic viewfinder, is smaller than the Fuji X100VI camera, and comes in four different body colors.
According to the latest rumors we have, the upcoming entry-level full-frame MIRRORLESS camera from Lumix COMING SOON will have the same 24.2 MP Hybrid CMOS AF sensor as we have seen in the Panasonic Lumix SS5 and S5 IIX cameras.
Don’t get confused, according to the source this Entry level full-frame Mirrorless camera is aimed at content creators, and it’s different from the Fullframe compact camera arriving with a fixed 40mm lens, take a look at what he said
Panasonic’s new entry-level full-frame mirrorless camera will be released in May! The new camera focuses on video capabilities, without a viewfinder, with a flip-out rear screen, making it more compact and affordable. As for the sensor, there are speculations that it might be the same as the Lumix S5 II, but this model is not the previously rumored full-frame camera with a fixed lens design
Interestingly, two Cameras from Pansonic coming in May 2024. it’s hard to believe that Panasonic has two new cameras with FF sensors coming soon, yes we do have information in the past that the compact camera will have an FF sensor but one more Entry Level Mirrorless is also coming, this particular news makes me very excited
According to the latest rumors surfaced over the web, Panasonic LUMIX’s will soon announce a new fullframe camera with a fixed 40mm F2 lens (Leica Lens). Leica will announce the same camera as Leica DLUX 8, later on.
What other Media Sources report , Panasonic’s new entry-level full-frame camera is confirmed to be released in May. This camera focuses on video functionality, does not have an electronic viewfinder, is compact and portable, has a flip screen, and is priced affordably. It is not the previously rumored fixed-lens full-frame camera.
Canon R5 Mark II and Fuj X-T50 Next announcement
For those who are not interested in Panasonic, you can wait for Canon R52 on the 15th, XT50 and GFX100S II on the 16th. The specific release date for Sony ZVE10 II is yet to be determined. Nikon D850 being discontinued overseas means it is out of production.
We have published several updates related to Panasonic’s Organic sensor development in the past, but now Panasonic today issued a new press release that reports Panasonic has made a groundbreaking development in organic CMOS image sensors. This new technology allows for accurate color reproduction by using the high light absorption rate of the organic film to thin the photoelectric conversion layer, which reduces color mixing.
The organic film used for photoelectric conversion is entirely separate from the circuit responsible for storing and reading electric charge. This unique layered structure reduces the sensitivity of each pixel in the green, red, and blue wavelength regions outside the target range, resulting in exceptional spectral characteristics with low color mixing. As a result, this technology can deliver precise color reproduction, regardless of the light source.
How this New Technology Works
Photoelectric conversion film thinning technology – The new organic thin film can absorb up to 10 times more light than traditional silicon photodiodes. This means the organic film can be made thinner and still absorb the same amount of light, which reduces color mixing from light hitting neighboring pixels at an angle.
Electrical pixel isolation technology – Helps to remove unwanted charges at the edges of pixels. This helps to suppress the signal charge from the neighboring pixels.
Light transmission suppression structure – To prevent light from passing through the photoelectric layer, the lower portion of the organic thin film has a pixel electrode and a charge-discharging electrode covering it. This helps to stop light that the organic thin film can’t absorb. Red light is especially prone to causing color mixing, but this method significantly reduces its transmission.
Panasonic’s organic CMOS sensor, whose progress is going in a slow speed, still waiting to get introduced commercially. With the technology developed this time, it is possible to achieve good color reproduction under all light sources, so if it is adopted for digital camera sensors (M4/3 / APS-C / FF), it seems that color reproduction under artificial light sources will be dramatically improved.
According to Simon of Ordinary Filmmaker and a friend, Panasonic will soon announce the Panasonic S1H Mark II camera. He already shared the leaked specification of the upcoming camera.

But might delay
Panasonic S1 Mark II Arrival Date
Very soon, this month (March 2023)
If the above rumors are true, we will surely see more details very soon.
The confirmation arrived from Yamane-san from Panasonic recently mentioned in an interview that they will adopt the best autofocus method (obviously they are talking about the PDAF) depending on the target users and customer benefits, and they will consider installing PDAF on the camera based on its characteristics (means starting from the pro-MFT like GH series and then moving downwards). This particular piece of information adds more credibility to the set of information we have shared with u guys a while ago.
Actual Parts of the interview
As for future cameras, we will adopt the optimal autofocus method each time, while assessing the target users and customer benefits. We will consider installing PDAF depending on the characteristics of the model, not only for full size but also for MFTs, so please look forward to it.
About future 2023 products:
We will continue to support creators and develop products that creators want. And we will also consider the need for higher-end products to meet the future needs of creators. I can’t give you details about future products, but Johnnie’s high-end model for video production professionals may take a little more time. Anyway, please look forward to that day.
A part of the Text from our article published on January 22nd, 2023
One of the most highly-anticipated features of the GH7 is its hybrid AF sensor, yes we do believe this time we will have a Hybrid CMOS AF inside. This sensor will be a combination of both contrast-detection and phase-detection autofocus technologies just like we have seen in the recently announced Panasonic’s S5 Mark II camera and has received positive feedback from users. The inclusion of this technology in the GH7 camera will allow for faster and more accurate autofocus, making it a more attractive option for professional photographers and videographers who require high-performance cameras. The only Major Upgrade I Wish for inside the upcoming GH7 camera.
However, it is important to note that while Yamane-san’s comments provide some support for the speculations in the article, it is still important to wait for official announcements from Panasonic regarding their upcoming GH7 camera
Panasonic has been one of the leading manufacturers of mirrorless cameras for many years, and the company’s GH series has been highly popular among professional photographers and videographers. In this article we will discuss the set of specs that may appear inside the Panasonic GH7 and its arrival date, we do hope and expect the upcoming GH series flagship camera is set to be a game-changer in the mirrorless camera market.
Panasonic GH Series announcement pattern
GH1: March 2009
GH2: September 2010
GH3: September 2012
GH4: February 2014
GH5: January 2016
GH5s: January 2018
GH6: Feb 2022
GH7: 2023 [Expected]
Live MOS Micro Four Thirds Sensor with Hybrid Auto Focus
One of the most highly-anticipated features of the GH7 is its hybrid AF sensor, yes we do believe this time we will have a Hybrid CMOS AF inside. This sensor will be a combination of both contrast-detection and phase-detection autofocus technologies just like we have seen in the recently announced Panasonic’s S5 Mark II camera and has received positive feedback from users. The inclusion of this technology in the GH7 camera will allow for faster and more accurate autofocus, making it a more attractive option for professional photographers and videographers who require high-performance cameras. The only Major Upgrade I Wish for inside the upcoming GH7 camera.
Well, that’s a topic of discussion, pixel peepers (like me) do love higher-resolution sensors at the same time some do believe that having a higher-resolution sensor means compromising with low-light performance of the camera. As we know the M4/3 formats-based sensors are 2X smaller than full frame sensors, so loading up more resolution won’t be feasible this time. A 40 MP higher resolution M4/3 format sensor should be preserved for Panasonic GH8 with 8K video resolution 😉
Rest Everything looks good inside the Panasonic GH series, which already features class-leading core specifications. If we talk about burst speed of 75fps of GH6 camera, 5.8K / 29.97p and 4K DCI / 119.88p RAW video data over HDMI that can be recorded as Apple ProRes RAW on the Atomos NINJA V and NINJA V+, and after the firmware v2.2 GH6 able to work with external SSDs with a capacity of up to 2TB, offering users fast storage at a fraction of the cost of CFexpress cards. This external storage is not only available for filmmakers or those shooting in ProRes, as all video formats can be saved to an SSD – as can still images. So, I think these features are already class-leading and don’t need that much improvement or upscaling, the only thing I am waiting for now is a massive upgrade in the AutoFocus system of the camera.
