S5ii & S5iiX:
- We have improved an issue that sometimes caused parts of the image corners to be missing when the camera was moved with image stabilization enabled.
- We have improved an issue where recorded videos could include noise depending on the SD card used.

S9:

This must be the issue I've speculated in a couple of other threads. There is Cropless stabilization for Video that takes out the wobble in the corners when the camera is moved, and they should be able to apply this same thing to photos when the camera is moved with stabilization on. If this is what Panasonic has done, it is a big deal. For video it only works with Panasonic lenses, at least for now, and I expect this would be the case with photos. If you have Panasonic lenses, make sure they have the latest firmware.

Since the S1RII and S1II did not get this new firmware, I assume (hope) these cameras already have this feature.
