Dials and buttons have a plasticky feel
Low resolution previews via EVF in 4K burst photo mode
It's another in a long line of Panasonic cameras with proprietary USB connectors and some people might find it too complicated
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 robus...
Abstract: G7 är en sann video/stillbildshybridkamera som erbjuder 4K videoinspelning till ett mycket överkomligt pris. Detta backas upp av ett komplett utbud av videofunktioner, samt mikrofoningång och fokus top-display. Stillbildsfotograferingen har inte försummat...
Photo answers review Photo answers rating 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 3...
The ergonomic G7 offers a solid AF system, an impressive EVF, and good, though not amazing, image quality. While its 4K video capabilities may have been downgraded from those in the flagship GH4, it's still a very capable camera that benefits from its us...
An affordable way to record 4K, Fast autofocus, Strong low light performance
Plasticky body, 4K doesn't always look wonderful
While I certainly wouldn't call £680 dirt cheap, it's not at all bad for what you get with the Panasonic Lumix G7. It's a lightweight interchangeable lens camera with above average low light performance, lightning-fast autofocus, strong user friendliness...

A great mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera for families and travelers, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-G7 is a compelling alternative to similarly priced dSLRs...
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...

On a budget but refuse to compromise? This is the camera for you. Simply put: This is a fantastic camera. Not only does it soundly kick butt performance-wise, but if you care about video this is perhaps the best value around. That may change soon, but...

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...
