LCD attachment on the Panasonic GX9

The LCD screen on the Panasonic Lumix DC-GX9 is flexibly attached to the body. In particular, the LCD can be tilted vertically to facilitate odd-angle shots in landscape orientation. This tilting design is often preferred, for example, by street photographers to a fully articulated, swivel type of LCD attachment, as it is more unobtrusive during shooting than a screen that flips out to the side.

In terms of size and resolution, the rear LCD of the Panasonic GX9 measures 3.0 inches and offers a resolution of 1,240,000 dots. The panel is touch sensitive.

As can be seen from the rear-side image, the 3.0-inch LCD occupies a large part of the backside of the camera. For comparison, the diagonal on a standard credit card measures 4 inches.

One convenient feature of the GX9 is the presence of an on-board flash. While this built-in flash is not very powerful, it can at times be useful as a fill-in light to brighten deep shadow areas.
