Price analysis

Price is normally the most important factor when considering a purchase. Especially when you’re shopping online, it’s really easy for us to shop around now so we can easily compare prices of the same product against many retailers with just a few clicks. In fact here at Review Pros we do that leg work for you, by comparing many different retailers to find you the best price.

To give an example, the most expensive product that we found in the DSLR and compact system cameras category was £2819.00, whilst the cheapest we found was £259.00 so there’s a significant variance in the prices that different products are available for. For this reason we always recommend that you set yourself a budget before you spend too much time shopping around for a product. It’s easy to get carried away and buying a much more expensive product than you really need, but setting a budget will help to avoid this.

When you need to capture that perfect moment, one shot isn’t enough. Use burst shooting on the Panasonic DC-G9 Mirrorless Camera to capture 60 frames per second at the highest resolution, so you get that perfect picture on the first try.80 megapixel High Res ModeShift into Hi Res Mode to experience the same great quality images, at a mighty 80 megapixels. These high resolution images are perfect for enlarging onto posters, and the camera’s Venus Engine is designed to keep up even at these high resolutions. Even as the detail increases, the DC-G9EB doesn’t slow down.Super-fast shutter speedCapture nature easily. Everything is designed to render the human reaction time into a non-issue. Autofocus can track fast moving objects like deer, or even insects. The fast shutter release means the butterfly can stop a leaf for less than a 20th of a second and still be captured.Best image stabilisationThe Panasonic DC-G9 brings together a Body Image Stabilizer and an Optical Image Stabilizer, which work together to compensate for movements that neither could have managed by themselves.

If you’ve only got one hand free and need to capture a moment, you can still be sure that your image will be picture-perfect.Splash-/freeze-/dust-proofWith all that nature photography, you’re occasionally going to be caught out in the rain. And the snow. Maybe even a dust storm. Wherever you’ve ended up, you don’t need to worry about the Panasonic DC-G9. It’s splash-, freeze-, and dust-proof, so it will survive longer than the bag you brought it in.Picture this The decisive moment, that perfect shot, missed because you were waiting for your camera to be ready to take a photo again. But it’s not your camera or your shooting technique – it’s all down to having the right memory card. To prevent that annoying lag when capturing high res images and HD video, opt for a high performance memory card with a fast write speed. Now you can focus on your subject.
