The G7 has been redesigned to include additional physical controls, including a shutter speed and aperture dials, as well as a priority mode dial. The buttons on the front of the camera can be assigned to different functions, which can be customized in the menu.
The Panasonic Lumix GH7 is a camera that has a lot of controls and customization. It can be difficult to get used to the controls, but with dedicated controls it makes it easier to understand the settings and use them more effectively.
Panasonic is setting the standard for 4K video capture, and it’s great to see the mid-priced G7 get a 4K upgrade. It has a similar implementation to the Panasonic LX100, with UHD (3,840×2,160) resolution and frame rates of 24 and 25fps. As with previous 4K cameras, the fidelity of fine details produced by 4K footage was far superior to that of 1080p footage, even after being downsized to fit a 1080p monitor. It also allows you to crop the video or add stabilisation effects without losing detail. The footage looks absolutely stunning when viewed on a large 4K monitor.
The video mode is great for creating videos with a clean, crisp look. The autofocus point, tracking focus, and spot metering are all great features, and the touchscreen control of the autofocus point, tracking focus, and spot metering are also very user-friendly. The manual control of shutter speed, aperture, ISO speed, and microphone volume level while recording is also a nice touch.
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-G7 is a great camera for aspiring amateur filmmakers. It has a 4K resolution option, which is not available on the Panasonic GH4, but it’s understandable that Panasonic saves something for its flagship model. The G7 also has 1080p capture at high bit rates and frame rates up to 96fps for slow-motion, which are all great features. ..
