I've had this camera for 30 days now, and I cant put it down. I am having an amazing time shooting Night Photography. It's also the perfect size for street photos as well. Very happy with my purchase.

The camera worked great for the first little while. However, after a few months the camera has started to display some serious issues: sometimes when recording, the screen will be overlaid with flashing pink static lines (an example has been attached); after pressing the button to stop a recording,...

I ordered the G7 as a B-camera for my GH4, but returned it as it has too many limitations (limited recording length, low bit rates, short battery life) for my workflow. Its a good camera for those wishing to get into 4K video, but the limitations would restrict its use for unattended use as a...

The G7 was on sale from Panasonic including the 14-42 and 45-150 kit lenses. The price looked right and I figured hey give some M4/3rds love to Panasonic since have been a big convert to Olympus since going M4/3rds in 2016.

The camera market has self-saturated. There's so much good kit out there, capable of producing such high quality images, that product updates tend to focus on new features rather than significant core changes to sell themselves.

Affordable; fully featured screen and viewfinder; impressive 4K capture; decent image quality (4K Photo has its uses too); pinpoint autofocus mode; extensive and customisable controls; silent electronic shutter option

Boxy and plasticky build; larger than G6 predecessor; occasional autofocus slip-ups; single SD card (slot in battery compartment); no 4K Cinema mode; 4K Photo pre-burst focus issues; battery life could be better

The new Panasonic Lumix G7 is the latest DSLR styled mirrorless camera, from Panasonic, and features a high-resolution electronic viewfinder (EVF), along with a vari-angle touchscreen, 16 megapixel Micro Four Thirds sensor, and 4K video recording, with advanced 4K / 8 megapixel photo shooting.

Excellent image quality; Large number of high quality lenses available; 4K video (3840x2160) recording; Very good value for money; SLR like grip and handling; Excellent external controls and ergonomics; High speed focus and shutter response; Dual axis electronic level; UHS-II card slot

Larger than G6; Loud shutter (unless you use electronic shutter; Does not record Cine 4K video resolution; Plastic construction may not be to everyone's liking

Replacing the Panasonic G6, the G7 sits beneath the Panasonic GH4 in the company's line-up of compact system cameras. It's the smaller of the two SLR-like models, and is aimed at enthusiast photographers. It sits alongside the rectangular Panasonic GX7, and above the GF7, GM1 and GM5.

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-G7 is a new Micro Four Thirds compact system camera that integrates 4K video recording capability with a variety of 4K Photo functions. The G7 can record 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) video with either 30p or 24p frames rates at 100Mbps in the MP4 format.

The Panasonic Lumix G7 takes the classic G-series mid-range accessibility and bolts-on some of the higher-grade video skills of the Panasonic GH4 . That camera brought 4K video shooting to thousands, this one lowers the entry price a bit.

Plenty of control; 4K video; Great EVF

Plastic build; APS-C rivals offer better dynamic range

Camera brands have been hard at work, inventing new ways to simplify the photo-taking process. Panasonic's latest 4K technology pushes the idea that you'll never miss a moment by shooting a 4K video burst at 30fps and extracting the exact frame you want afterwards.
