Panasonic Lumix S9 Body Jet Black

The Panasonic Lumix S9 is the perfect system camera for image-makers who are often on the move and want to share their creations with the world online quickly and easily. This S9 has an ultra-light and compact design but boasts the power of full frame. The camera has a 24.2 megapixel full frame sensor and you can use a wide range of L-mount lenses.

The camera features real-time recognition autofocus with PDAF (Phase Detection Auto-Focus), allowing you to easily and accurately track subjects like people, animals and vehicles. There is also built-in 5-axis Dual I.S.2 image stabilisation, offering up to 6.5 stops. The I.S. image stabilisation delivers 5 stops of stabilisation. You can also take stable handheld shots, thanks to Active I.S. image stabilisation, which reduces blur caused by camera shake.

The Panasonic Lumix S9 works closely with your smartphone. You can create your own so-called 'signature presets' on the smartphone. These signature presets are certain colour styles you have created in advance. By then transferring these to the S9, you can immediately apply them to the photos and videos you take. This saves time in post-processing. As well as being able to create your own presets, you can also choose to download the presets via the LUMIX Lab app. Your recordings are quick and easy to transfer to your smartphone thanks to improved connection speed and stability. A new recording format is used for this: MP4 Lite. This is an Open Gate video mode optimised for smartphones. Within 30 seconds, your photo or video is online, just the way you want it.

You can expand the zoom range of the Panasonic S9 while maintaining image quality. This is possible through crop zoom function and the hybrid zoom function. The crop zoom function uses the centre of the camera sensor to extend the normal zoom range. The hybrid zoom function uses both the optical and crop zoom to extend the focal length even further.

The camera features an L mount, giving you a wide choice of lenses to suit your needs as a content creator. With more than 80 lenses, you can go either way. From portrait to landscape and architecture to macro, the possibilities are endless.

SIGMA 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN II Art L-mount

The SIGMA 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN II Art is a true classic in a completely new look. As the lens features both a wide-angle and short telephoto zoom range, this lens is ideal for capturing landscapes, portraits and your travels. The constant aperture of f/2.8 ensures that you can also use the lens in dark conditions without any problems. This means you can also use it to shoot reportage or events. It is a true all-rounder!

The SIGMA 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN II is extremely compact and fast, giving the lens outstanding optical performance. The 24-70mm f/2.8 boasts a wide range of updated features and advanced technologies to help you get the most out of your photography. For example, the High-responsive Linear Actuator (HLA) makes the lens three times faster at focusing compared to its predecessor. Of course, the autofocus is not only fast, but also extremely precise and quiet. This also allows you to use the lens for videography with minimal focus breathing.

With the addition of an aperture ring and two AFL buttons, functionality has been vastly improved. You can assign functions to the AFL buttons yourself, allowing you to adjust the lens to your own needs. A conscious decision was made to place an AFL button at the top, so you can easily operate it in portrait mode. The lens is also perfect for shooting close-ups. With a minimum focusing distance of just 17 centimetres and a maximum magnification ratio of 1:2.7, you can bring even the smallest details into focus big time.

A true flagship among lenses, the SIGMA 24-70mm lives up to its name through its optical performance. Finished with both a nano and super multilayer coating, the lens consists of 6 FLD, 2 SLD and 5 aspherical glass elements. This effectively reduces various aberrations, ghosting, lens flare and sagittal comaflare. This ensures high-contrast images free of colour casts in all conceivable light situations, including extreme backlighting.

Its compact size and robust construction mean you can take the lens anywhere. At just 745g, for instance, the lens weighs a whopping 10% less than its predecessor. The body consists mainly of plastic and boasts excellent build quality. In addition, the lens is dust- and splashproof, so you can continue to fully rely on the SIGMA 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN II even during rough (weather) conditions.
