No built-in EVF apparently. An accessory one will be available hopefully.

I would be VERY surprised if that camera came without a built-in EVF. Else, how would it be usable? I do not think Panasonic will require every user to buy an accessory EVF.

Sigma does it already (FPL).

Sounds closer to a consumer market FP, with the addition of a tilt LCD. 24Mpixel readout better for video.

Makes sense but it would be surprising if an accessory EVF is not available anyway.

An excellent opportunity to sell a expensive accessory 🙂

Big questions in my mind are IBIS and new L-mount pancake lenses.

If it's like Sigma's it wouldn't be IBIS but EIS if the Pana body has an electronic shutter.

Unfortunately, that also is where my expectations sit : EIS and big associated crop.

If you have a closer look at the image in the initial post, you can see the rubberized edge of what I think is the surrounding edge of a viewfinder window at the leftmost side of the camera (right side in the above pic).

It is the current LX100M2 apparently but i may be wrong.

It is a vlogging camera which has no need for an EVF. It is not meant for stills according to this video. It will probably have eIS I suppose

It looks pretty cool.  However, it also has no mechanical shutter so I will likely pass. . .

More info from l-Rumors website

Additional Technical notes:

Low rolling shutter

Same IBIS and same Image Quality of the S5II

All S5II recording features are there! Open Gate and so on…

S9 doesn’t have a fan, recording is limited to 10 minutes at 6K and 15 minutes at 4K.

not a great location for usbc c and micro hdmi

battery looks like blk22 (most likely it)

I think 1 slot only (didn’t ask)

Curiosity:

LUT button let’s you select your own LUTs.

There will be a new LUT App from Lumix

no attachable EVF

Some features of the S9 coming on S5II in autumn

Menu is a more “simpler” version of the S5II menu

Just announced:

24 MP with IBIS (same as S5II), under 500g with battery and card, no EVF, new app for quick sharing, 6K open gate video. $400 cheaper than S5II.

It's almost like a Lumix-branded fp. I wonder if it uses the same BLC12 battery as the fp.

I found the info from Dpreview. 

The S9 uses Panasonic's 16 Wh DMW-BLK22 battery, the same one found in the S5II, G9II, and GH5II. It's rated to give you around 470 shots per charge

Is this the to be rebranded CLII in rumor?

Hallo,

Look here: Leica L-Mount

[lct]

Kind of Panasonic version of the Sigma FP apparently. If so, it should be followed by a 60mp version and an accessory EVF.
