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
Expert review by : Angela Nicholson (techradar.com)
New 4K Photo modes make it easy to shoot 8MP images at 30 frames per second
OLED viewfinder ; Vari-angle touch-screen ; Integration of 4K Photo shooting
Two-year-old sensor ; Lightweight build ; Micro Four Thirds type sensor is smaller than APS-C
While the G7's design and build may lack the excitement of cameras like the Fuji X-T10, it has a very well-rounded feature set, with a high-quality OLED viewfinder, a vari-angle touchscreen and Wi-Fi connectivity. Image quality is also high.

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. In the case of the...
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
So there we have it, the GH4 junior. No, we mean Lumix G7. Just like the top-end model, the G7 offers great image quality, excellent 4K video capture, super-fast autofocus, and even the 4K Photo option has its uses.

Video. It's one of the big new words in system camera vocabulary. For the Lumix G7, however, its 4K ultra-high definition modes are there not just for
Expert review by (stuff.tv)
A 4K camera for less than you'd expect
An affordable way to record 4K ; Fast autofocus ; Strong low light performance
Plasticky body ; 4K doesn’t always look wonderful
A versatile, user-friendly little lens-swapper that’d make the ideal first system camera
Expert review by : Lori Grunin (cnet.co.uk)
This full-featured mirrorless interchangeable-lens model makes a surprisingly good alternative to a midpriced dSLR.
For the money, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-G7 delivers great photo and video, excellent performance and a broad feature set.
It's another in a long line of Panasonic cameras with proprietary USB connectors and some people might find it too complicated.
A great mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera for families and travelers, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-G7 is a compelling alternative to similarly priced dSLRs.

I liked the Panasonic Lumix DMC-G7 a lot more than I expected. The G7 brings the company's midrange line of enthusiast and family-oriented interchangeable-lens models up to date with features like 4K/UHD (ultra high definition) video and the company's...

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 ;...
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
The Panasonic Lumix G7 offers an impressive range of features, including 4K video recording, a high resolution electronic viewfinder (EVF), rapid performance and focus speeds, as well as high image quality with a newly updated image processing engine....

The G7 aims to change the way we shoot by pulling 8Mp stills from its 4K videos.
The G7 is packed with innovative features that make it a real alternative to a DSLR. Its high burst rate, flip-out screen and focus peaking features are all fantastic, and make the G7 a pleasure to shoot with. It feels light and portable yet is very...
