Comfortable to hold; Loads of function buttons; 4K burst and pre-burst modes are literal game changers and perfect for sports or high-speed photography; Decent shots are possible from this camera, though we'd change that kit lens first; Support for wirele
Eye-sensor can sometimes be a little fiddly, switching off the rear LCD when your eye isn't behind the viewfinder; No charging from the camera itself, and an external charger is still needed;

Such a refined camera should not have the memory card slot in the battery compartment where it cannot be accessed when the camera is on a tripod
Some years ago we reviewed one of the first hybrid stills/video cameras – also from Panasonic – and confidently predicted that it was a fiasco that would never fly. It was impossible, we said, to combine the two functions in a single camera without compro...
