Panasonic just announced a new camera: the Lumix S9. The Lumix S9 is specifically intended to appeal to those waiting for a Fujifilm X100VI but are on a really long waitlist. It has a vague retro rangefinder styling that might, from a distance, look similar to the Fujifilm X-E4. It has a 24mp full-frame sensor.
