According to the latest information, the Panasonic G9 II may arrive in September 2023. Previous rumors suggested that the camera was expected to arrive before November 2023. So, we are getting a time frame between September and November for the announcement.
Panasonic G9 II Specs
New 20 Mp Hybrid CMOS AF Sensor
4k 120fps
5-Axis Sensor Stabilization; Dual I.S. (New Gen)
80MP High-Res Shot Mode
Top Status LCD; Rear Joystick
The specs above are from an unreliable/new source but look legit, so we have decided to publish them.
We have just published the news that Panasonic will soon update its major camera firmware to make it compatible with LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) autofocusing system.
Pics that show the Panasonic S1H camera working in calibration with the LiDAR autofocusing system + RS Pro 3 gimbal to stabilize the camera. Although We don’t have that much detail on how the autofocus performed during the test, the combination of LiDAR autofocusing system with RS Pro 3 gimbal and Lumix S1H camera isn’t a cheap package.
Instead putting time on Lidar Tech, they should announce S1H Mark II with Hybrid Sensor asap – TNC
At the same time, they say they have already DEVELOPED their hybrid CMOS SENSOR, and we have already seen it in the Panasonic S5 MARK II mirrorless camera. Then, instead of investing time and money in LiDAR autofocusing system, it’s better to announce a new series of updated sensors for all their pro cameras with a hybrid system that they already have.
Panasonic Lumix and DJI have joined hands for an ultimate partnership. Initially, the result of the partnership is that we will soon see firmware updates coming for S1H, S1R, S5, and S5R cameras. GH6 and GH5M2 will release firmware updates in mid-October to support DJI stabilizer RS3 Pro and Lidar to focus.

Compatible with Panasonic AF lenses
Achieve precise focus without fear of light
We can expect a significant improvement in video shooting. It is currently undergoing in-house testing before the final release and will soon become available.
Samyang announces a new lens for L-mount, the 35-150mm f/2-2.8. Although this lens is already available for Sony E-mount and Tamron makes the same lens for E and Z mount, Tamron is not currently a part of the L-mount alliance. The L-mount alliance comprises Sigma, Panasonic, DJI, Astro Design, and Samyang. So, for now, Samyang will take advantage of the situation.
How many of you guys think the new Samyang 35-150mm F2-F2.8 is a perfect lens for Panasonic S5 Mark II camera ? Let me know in the comment section
According to the latest rumors we have from the rumor mill, Panasonic is about to announce the successor of the Panasonic G9 camera, which was announced back on November 2017, so it’s almost 5+ years finally we are having an update from Panny.
The Panasonic G9 was Panasonic’s flagship Micro Four Thirds camera. At the time of its announcement in 2017, the camera had a maximum burst speed of 20 frames per second with continuous autofocus and a maximum shooting speed of up to 60 frames per second. Additionally, its image stabilization was effective up to 6.5 stops and it also included Dual IS 2.0 technology. The G9 was capable of shooting uncropped 4K video at 60fps and also had an 80-megapixel high-resolution handheld mode. These specs were for the Panasonic G9 flagship Micro Four-Thirds format camera, which was announced back in 2017.
If Panasonic is planning to announce the G9 II in 2023, then you can imagine the set of improvements we will have in the G9 Mark II camera body.
Panasonic representatives have stated several times during interviews that the S5 Mark II camera sensor technology will not be limited to full-frame sensors only; they will also use the same hybrid AF technology for their Micro Four Thirds format cameras.
So, we are expecting a massive upgrade in the autofocus performance of the upcoming Panasonic G9 Mark II camera.
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.
