The Art of Titanium Gold

Creating the Titanium Gold finish required more than conventional metallic paint. Traditional coatings use metallic particles to produce shine, but they often lack the depth and realism of true metal. The LUMIX design team set out to create a more dynamic color that comes to life in the light. The result is a three-layer coating process developed through months of testing and refinement. First, a piano black base layer amplifies brilliance. Next, the surface is polished to a mirror finish, creating a smooth, particle-free foundation. Finally, a color-clear top layer reveals the deep tone and unique texture of Titanium Gold. This process gives the S9 a subtle metallic glow that shifts with the light, reflecting both precision and luxury.

Connected Creativity

The Titanium Gold body and dark brown grip create a warm, modern look that suits the S9’s simple design. But its visual appeal goes beyond appearances. The S9 features a 24.2-megapixel full-frame sensor, Phase Hybrid Autofocus, and in-body image stabilization, ensuring crisp photos and smooth handheld video. Its Open Gate 6K recording (3:2) format allows creators to capture once and deliver for any platform without losing quality, e.g., 16:9, 1:1, or 9:16. And with Real Time LUT support, cinematic color looks can be applied straight from the camera, no post-production required. Paired with the LUMIX Lab app, the S9 makes creating and sharing easier than ever. Creators can transfer photos and 4K Open Gate videos instantly to their phone, apply custom LUTs, and share to social media within minutes. It’s a seamless bridge between professional imaging and mobile creativity.

The LUMIX S9 Titanium Gold Edition isn’t just a new color. It’s where modern technology meets classic craftsmanship. With its rich metallic finish and creative versatility, it reflects the core of LUMIX: innovation, elegance, and self-expression.

Stylish, High-Performing, and Travel-Friendly

Pairing the lightweight, convenient full-frame system with the world's lightest zoom, Lumix S9 Mirrorless Camera with 18-40mm f/4.5-6.3 Lens from Panasonic is the perfect on-the-go camera setup for content creators. While smartphones continue to advance in their photo and video capabilities, a uniquely small full-frame system such as the S9 supplies you with significantly more power without the burden of the size of a typical mirrorless or DSLR camera. A 24.2MP full-frame sensor is utilized within the S9, which makes creating high-quality images much easier, even in dimly lit situations. You also have the advantage of choosing from numerous L-mount lenses to suit your needs. Overall, the simplicity and convenience of the S9 makes it an excellent tool for elevating your ability to quickly create and share impactful images.

Connect and Share Instantly

Getting your photos and videos onto your smartphone quickly is a massive benefit of the S9. With improved connection speed and stability, users are able to easily link their device to the S9 in a few simple steps with the Lumix Lab app.

Real Time LUT (Signature Presets)

Create your own signature presets on your smartphone and transfer them to your S9, so you can apply them to your photos while you're shooting, not after. This gives you a precise idea of what your finished photos or videos will look like and is a massive time saver. You can download creators' LUT from the official Lumix website.

Extend Your Range with Crop and Hybrid Zoom

The crop zoom function utilizes the center of the camera sensor to extend the normal zoom range while maintaining image quality. The hybrid zoom function utilizes both optical and crop zoom to extend the focal length even further.

Lumix 18-40mm f/4.5-6.3 Lens

Touted as the world's smallest and lightest full-frame zoom lens, the 5.5 oz, 1.6"-long Panasonic Lumix 18-40mm f/4.5-6.3 lens brings high resolution from corner to corner in a unique zoom range for a flexible, versatile, walk-around lens. Suitable for landscapes, buildings, and snapshots with a natural perspective, the lens also provides subtle bokeh when shooting subjects with the maximum aperture and at the minimum focusing distance of 5.9". The lens achieves its high sharpness and small form factor with the help of an optical design featuring three aspherical elements, two extra-low dispersion elements, and one ultra-high refractive element. The lens also benefits video shooters by suppressing focus breathing.

In addition to its lightweight and portable design, the lens' construction is dust, splash, and freeze-resistant for use in adverse weather conditions. The front element also has a fluorine coating to repel water, oil, and other debris.
