“Today, content is king and we are here to provide photographers and videographers with a compact yet powerful companion to capture their creativity. Designed to disrupt the DSLM segment, we see a huge potential for Lumix G9 in India,” Sandeep Sehgal, Business Chief, Imaging Business Group, Panasonic India and SAARC said in a statement.
