The ‘content creator’ market is an increasingly important one for makers at the moment, as they’ve figured out that one way to attract new customers is to persuade people to upgrade from smartphones and buy a mirrorless camera.
A good example of a stylish, full-frame camera that should appeal to video-focussed content creators as well as many other demographics, including street photographers, is the Panasonic Lumix S9.
You can now get it for just $1,397.99 on Amazon including the super-cool green model! You also get the versatile 18-40mm F4.5-6.3 lens.
At a glance:
- 24.2MP full-frame sensor
- ISO 100-51,200 (standard)
- Up to 30fps continuous shooting
- Video recording at 6K 30fps, 4K 60fps, or Full HD 120fps
- 3in, 1.84m-dot fully articulated touchscreen
- In-body stabilisation: 5 stops, or 6.5 stops with OIS lens
So if you are looking for a relatively compact and stylish mirrorless camera that makes short work of recording video as well as capturing high-quality stills, the Panasonic Lumix S9 is a good choice at this price.
It also takes a wide range of L-mount lenses, including those from Sigma and Leica, greatly adding to the camera’s versatility. See our first look review here.

About
I am the deputy editor of Amateur Photographer, working closely with the team to make the website and magazine as good as possible. I’ve been working on magazines since 1995 and am also a keen travel and portrait photographer when time allows, reaching the finals of the Pink Lady Food Photographer of the Year contest in 2015 and achieving my Licentiate from the Royal Photographic Society the year before. I also keep my wedding-photography hand in by shooting a few ceremonies a year. I am particularly interested in how photography can help people express their creativity more effectively, or deal with mental health issues and other challenges.
