MIRRORLESS: Panasonic G9 Mark II camera works with an external flash drive

We got a Panasonic G9M2 camera to complement my GH6, so I had to test the G9M2 with an external flash drive plugged into the camera's USB-C port. It works exactly like it does in the GH6 (the G9M2 is basically a GH6 Lite), so I made a video showing how to use a flash drive as external memory for the G9M2. Using the Samsung flash drive that I show in the video, I demonstrate that it recorded 50 minutes of 4k ProRes video at 648 Mbps.

Also, one of the big differences between the GH6 and G9M2 is that the G9M2 does not have the GH6's cooling system. Therefore, there was a great wringing of hands when the G9M2 was announced that it would stop recording video after a relatively brief time. In my video, I show that the G9M2 records 4K 150 Mbps for more than an hour without a problem -- the only time limitation being the battery running out of power at 75 minutes.

Here's my video:
