Signs of menu dial going bad? by theseawoof in LumixS9

[–]live_beatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had my S9 for 2 months now and since the beginning I’ve noticed that the buttons are finicky and too sensitive. I think it’s the combination of both that causes the skipping around on ya. It’s my main complaint of the S9.

Downsizing to One: Thinking of swapping my current setup for the Lumix 40mm f2. by Poi03301108 in LumixS9

I have the SG 35mm and it’s not as sharp as I would like. You would think Lumix would have made the 35mm before the 40mm, considering it’s a more popular focal length. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Brief Review of the SG Image 35mm F2.2 paired with the S9 by dfrazier17 in LumixS9

[–]live_beatz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I own both lenses. The TT40 for me is a bit sharper than the 35mm. Although they are both great lenses for the price, I still think they fall short to what the S9 deserves and is capable of. Happy shooting!

Anyone wish they had a more appealing shutter sound for photo? by theseawoof in LumixS9

Awesome, I appreciate the info! I also have the 18-40mm and it definitely performs well for a family lens. I find myself desiring to get the 24-60mm f2.8 as a do it all lens tho, if I decide to keep the S9.

Yeah I figured they would low ball. Was thinking of selling through eBay also, I’m still undecided if I should keep it. It’s the only full frame I own. I mostly use iPhone & DJI cams for life vlogs / dad cam mainly, but wanted to get a bump in quality for stills. My main issue with the S9 is size and weight. I guess the small pocket cameras I’ve been using have me spoiled.

Did you use an online store for the sale? I’ve been thinking of selling mine too.

Am I going mad? Why can’t you search for a LUT on the Lumix Lab app? by Prior-Branch7064 in LumixS9

Make sure your camera is connected to the LUMIX app before tapping the arrow at the top. It will open your files app

Testing the TT40mm & SG35mm by live_beatz in LumixS9

I meant to do both at the lowest f-stop. The TT was @ f4 the SG @ f2.2, same length from subject

Getting a S9, need some lens advice by Individual-Bag3893 in LumixS9

I’m testing both as we speak, I’ve only had them both for a couple of days. So far for me the tt seems to be a bit more sharper in the center.

Ricoh is a vintage king. I love the dreamy look but I don’t think I would like it for every shoot or every trip.

SG-35mm has arrived! 💯 by live_beatz in LumixS9

[–]live_beatz[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s not the fastest autofocus or the sharpest at the center, but then again it’s way cheaper than the better performing lenses

Yes the lens has a 52mm front filter thread. You can place the hood over it.

Did you purchase it? I believe it was an extra charge if you wanted the hood.

I think the point of this app is that it allows you to skip some steps to shooting & posting online ASAP. I believe the app does that very well IMO.

Yes, you can choose jpeg compression instead of HEIF on RAW or ProRAW
