This weekend I had my first indoor-sports session with the G9. The light was extremely poor. In the past I shot either with the GH4 or the E-M1.2 indoors. The GH4 was to slow for fast action and the PDAF of the E-M1.2 needs plenty of light to get the best results. My main challenges with the G9 were and still are: What is the best AF area to use for fast action and how to set the "AF custom settings" then. I tried many combinations with different results, This still needs more investigations over the coming weeks in order to get reproducible good results. The AF description from Panasonic is very poor as always. I would like to see an AF-guide like the one from Canon. Any experience regarding C-AF settings from other G9 shooters are very welcome.
