Title: Still a great camera in 2024
Review: With prices of today's cameras so high, the G7 can be found for around $250 used and it is plenty of camera for most people. I highly recommend it.I've had the camera since 2017 and it is my only m43 camera. I use it with the 14-140ii, 9-18mm, 25mm/1.7 and 43/1.8 primes. It has been a great reliable camera through the years taken to hikes in the mountains, vacations and family gatherings - always delivering good pictures and videos.I think that the shutter shock issue was a little overblown. It has never been an issue for me even keeping the camera in mechanical only shutter. Not saying it does not exist but it is not something that had bothered me.I used the G7 to record my daughter's soccer games for a couple of years and it performed well there as well managing to keep up focus with the action. I used only FHD 60fps so cannot comment on the 4K video. The microphone port made a huge difference in recording good sound.The body is very light at only 400g which keeps the package easy to carry for extended periods of time. With the 14-140 lens the combo weights almost the same as my Sony A57 DSLR alone. The newer upgrades G85 and G95 have gotten bulkier and heavier. Adding image stabilization is probably the main reason for that. With the 14-140 having IOS and the prime lenses being fast I have not missed the in-body image stabilization of the newer models, hence never upgraded.The ergonomics are great with two control dials and plenty of customizable buttons. I love the well placed quick focus mode selector switch and the touchscreen focus select area while looking through the viewfinder. I like the power slider next to the mode dial on the right side of the camera allowing one hand operation when needed. The power switch being on the left side of the camera is what I did not like on all Olympus bodies when I was deciding which brand to go with.I have a small Meike tilt and swivel TTL flash that works really great with the G7. It makes for a light combo at family gatherings for high quality bounced flash pictures.I use only RAW so cannot comment on the JPEG engine. The RAW files allow lots of latitude during processing. Lifting shadows and lowering highlights works very well. ISO up to 3200/6400 is perfectly usable when processed properly.

Title: Best bang-for-the-buck 4K video shooter on the market - WOW!
Review: I do absolutely LOVE this camera, with one minor caveat: GET THE BLACK VERSION. I originally bought the silver one because it looks sharp - very classy especially with the knurled metal knobs (they are NOT plastic as some have claimed). However, in many lighting situations, it's just about impossible to read the icons on the knobs because it's white-on-silver. See attached pics. Also, the silver finish of the camera body is smooth and feels like plastic; on the black version the finish has more of a metal flake texture and just makes the camera look and feel more "pro." And of course the knobs are MUCH more readable on the black version.For the nitty gritty on the camera itself, do what I did - spend obscene amounts of time reading/watching reviews 😉 There really is no other camera like it at this price point right now. I almost sprung for the GH4 (4k video is really important to me), but as many reviews will tell you, the G7 actually does a tad better in low light - certainly with noise levels. For HALF the money! If you want a killer 4k video rig especially for low light work, the G7 is what you want. Yes, it's not a magnesium weather sealed body, but it actually is really well made (polycarbonate) and feels great. The light weight was off-putting at first after years of DSLRs, but I've gotten used to the G7 and wouldn't trade it for all that weight and bulk!One other thing: I originally got the smaller kit lens version but returned it for the larger one (14-140). The zoom range on the smaller one just isn't much, and the larger lens will do just about anything all in one lens. Between that and Panasonic's excellent 45mm F1.7 ($350), I'm set for everything I need. So there you have it - amazing piece of gear!

Title: GREAT camera but tripods seem to be out of the question.
Review: I'm brand new to photography; I've always been curious, but never gotten into it very much. After LOTS of research I decided on the Lumix G7.PHENOMENAL camera, as far as this novice can tell. Mirrorless, so it's lightweight. The picture quality is superb, the autofocus is intuitive, the entire package is solid. And the 4k features available in such a cost-efficient bundle can't be beat (I'm seeing retailers offering it $100 less than what I paid for it a month ago now). If you're just starting out like me, you really can't go wrong with this one. I'm also a YouTube content creator (shameless plug: check out "Chris and the XD in The C4 Movement") so having this available to shoot up to 30 mins of 4k video is huge. I'm loving almost everything about this camera.The ONLY thing that stops it from getting a full 5 stars from me: it has a mount for tripods, but the manual states anything over .22 inches is not recommended and may damage the camera. That rules out a LOT of the tripods I've been seeing. As a photography novice, to really learn the shots and get best possible images without camera shake, I really need a tripod. Perhaps options exist, I'll keep searching, but just keep that in mind as you consider options. If you're going to need to mount on a tripod this may not be the perfect choice. But if you're like me and just want to make some cool shots here and there, I heartily recommend giving this camera consideration.

Review: Tengo años que no compraba una cámara de lentes intercambiables, no lo hacia por el precio, el peso y el volumen, estuve viendo camaras "full frame" pero su precio estaba elevadisimo, pense en una "bridge" pero queria poder ponerle lentes, no conocia el formato micro 4/3 y me lo tope en videos de youtube, despues de ver lo que esta camara podia hacer, tome la decision de comprarla, esta camara panasonic lumix G7 resulto ser excelente, el formato micro 4/3 hace que la camara sea mas compacta que las "full frame", por lo que es mas portatil, ligera y facil de transportar, al tener un "crop" de 2, un lente de 25mm equivale a uno de 50 mm, trae un lente 14-42 mm que equivale a un 28-84mm, su equivalente es el doble del tamaño, los lentes son muy economicos y faciles de transportar (en comparacion de las otras marcas), la llevo a todas partes sin problemas, le he comprado dos lentes aparte del que traia incluida y son excelentes, gracias a que el precios de los lentes es bastante economicos y faciles de transportar, estoy pensando comprar muchos mas, quiero experimentar que diferentes formatos y caracteristicas de los lentes disponibles, la camara me ha gustado muchisimo, tiene funciones de camaras de precio mucho mas elevado, estoy mas que satisfecho con la camara, si la volveria a comprar? claro que si y la recomiendo ampliamente

Review: Todos sabemos que las camaras de calidad tanto Reflex como Mirorless son caras. Yo uso la camara para trabajar, tenemos una agencia de marketing digital. Antes usaba la Canon Rebel T5i y ahora estamos usando esta Panasonic Lumix G7.Principales diferencias entre la G7 y la Rebel T5i:TAMAÑO Ganador: Lumix G7 - La G7 es mirrorless por lo que es mas chica de tamaño y mas ligera . Ademas usa sensor micro cuatro tercios por lo que los lentes son mas compactos comparados con los de la Canon.CALIDAD EN FOTOGRAFIA Ganador: Lumix G7 - Usamos tanto la Canon T5i como la Lumix G7 para tomar fotografia de comida y creemos que la G7 es mejor que la T5i por la viveza de los colores. El unico punto negativo de la G7 es que las fotos son en tamaño 16MB y las de la Canon T5i es de 18MB.CALIDAD EN VIDEO Ganador: Lumix G7 - La G7 graba en 4K por lo que no hay punto de comparación. En video la T5i no tiene nada que hacer contra la G7.FUNCIONES EXTRAS: Ganador: Lumix G7 - Aun no termino de descubrir al 100% la camara, pero hasta ahora he visto dos funciones muy practicas que no tiene la T5i. La primera es foto en 4K; basicamente te permite grabar pequeños clips de video y de ahi sacar fotos 4K de excelente calidad de 8MB. Y la otra funcion es la de timelapse: se pueden crear los efectos de timelapse muy fácilmente.FACILIDAD DEL SOFTWARE: Ganador: Canon T5i - Quiza es porque aun no me acostumbro al sistema de Panasonic, pero se me hacia mas facil el sistema Canon. Pero igual aquí es cuestión de acostumbrarse.Creo que las camaras Reflex ya van de salida. Si vas a comprar una camara te recomiendo una mirrorless. Y si estas comparando entre la Canon T5i y la Lumix G7, te puedo decir con seguridad que la Lumix G7 es mucho mejor. Tiene mas funciones y podrás grabar video en 4K.

Review: This camera is quite the bang for your buck! Great 4K video, lots of programmable buttons, articulating screen, and it comes with a lens as well! Only downside is no headphone jack, but I record audio externally anyways so this doesn't affect me. Also make sure you get a fast SD card, as slower ones will not work with the camera if you're trying to record 4K. Overall it's a great little camera the gives you almost all of the features of the GH4 but at a fraction of the price!
