Buttons all over the place, Menus are sometimes a bit complicated, No headphone jack, No sensor stabilization
Let's not beat about the bush; Panasonic's Lumix G7 is nearly the perfect interchangeable-lens camera for the majority of users. It's well-built, fairly compact and light, very fast, takes beautiful photos, is gifted in video (4K/UHD!), offers great custo...

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. The biggest drawback in the G7 i...
4K video and 4K Photo modes, Electronic shutter enables silent operation, Twin control dials for independent aperture and shutter speed control, Superb 2,36-million-dot electronic viewfinder
Operational speed in 4K Photo modes needs to be faster, Top plate, dials and buttons have a plasticky feel, Low resolution previews via EVF in 4K burst photo mode
With the increasing importance of video, Panasonic has placed the emphasis very much on the G7s movie capabilities without treading too closely on the Lumix GH4s toes. Unlike the manufacturers flagship model, the Lumix G7 doesnt record cinema-grade DC...
The G7 has two superb cameras to compete with. The Canon EOS 750D is a true SLR that doesn't put a foot wrong and beats the G7 for image quality. The G7 is faster in continuous mode, though, its viewfinder is larger and it has more plentiful physical cont...
While the G7 design and build may lack the excitement of cameras like the Fuji X-T10, it has one of the most well-rounded feature sets available, with a high quality OLED viewfinder, a vari-angle touch-screen, and Wi-Fi connectivity....
Plastic build, APS-C rivals offer better dynamic range
The Panasonic Lumix G7 is what we hoped for and expected from a new G-series camera this year. We get the same serious style, with some performance improvements and the same class of 4K video skills we saw in the GH4. Set to sell for £599 body-only or fr...
Panasonics designers have clearly gone back to the drawing board to create the Lumix G7 and unlike the Lumix G6 that had flowing lines and rounded edges, the Lumix G7 has a more angular design. The redesigned shape of the pentaprism resembles Olympuss O...
Abstract: Replacing the Panasonic G6, the G7 sits beneath the Panasonic GH4 in the company's line-up of compact system cameras. It has the same 16MP sensor as the GX7, with the processor from the GH4.A key feature of the G7 is that it's possible to shoot 8MP imag...

4K UHD Video Capture, Fast & Accurate Auto-Focus System, 1040K Tiltable Screen, Intuitive Manual Control System
Plastic Like Feel, Main Dial Issues, Average Dynamic Range, Slow Wake-Up-To-Shoot Time
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-G7 has a 16 megapixel Digital Live MOS sensor in combination with the newly developed and reconfigured Venus Engine which means it provides a combination of really high quality image capture with super-fast signal processing. Furt...
Compact and lightweight for a fully-featured interchangeable-lens camera; Really fast autofocus; Good all-around performance too; Generous buffer depth; Versatile tilt/swivel LCD and high-res viewfinder; Touch-screen controls; Very affordable pricetag,
Out of the box, colors are muted by consumer standards; Warm white balance under incandescent light; Handgrip is a little shallow for those with larger hands; Wi-Fi is overly complex and has limited range
Courtesy of a detailed knowledge of the bokeh characteristics of its lenses, Panasonic can determine the direction and magnitude of the focus adjustment needed to obtain a focus lock, much as does a phase-detection autofocus sensor. However, it doesn't n...
