Panasonic LUMIX G9 DC-G9KBODY Black
A 20.3MP sensor with an 80MP high-resolution mode and 60fps electronic burst shooting makes this body a speed-focused tool for capturing split-second action. The 3.68M-dot OLED viewfinder with a 120fps refresh rate and blackout-free view provides a clear, real-time window during fast pans, while the 6.5-stop IBIS system enables sharp handheld shots. This camera is best for sports and wildlife photographers who need rapid autofocus and high frame rates to freeze motion.
