Panasonic G7 detailed hands on review in 4K (DMC-G7)

[@teckno_senpai]

you, sir, deserve a medal for this. great detailed review

[@MaartenHeilbron]

+JBF (Johnnyboy Films) That is very kind of you to say. Who needs a medal when I have fans like you? Thanks for making my day.

[@teckno_senpai]

Haha no problem at all :)

[@Sprenklefish]

I agree! You need your own TV tech show, Maarten!!! Panasonic should cut you a check at least! I want this camera, or two!!!

[@MaartenHeilbron]

I have the nicest viewers, thank you for your kind words. Multi-camera shoot?

[@Sprenklefish]

YES!!!

[@Raychristofer]

Best review of this camera ever my man, it tops even The Camera Store Tv's overview. believe me I know how extensive it can be shooting narrating and editing a review like this. Respect

[@MaartenHeilbron]

Thanks very much. I do this because it's what I enjoy - and comments like yours make it a pleasure. I appreciate the kind words.

[@WhatTheFragrance]

Maarten Heilbron your review was very extensive which was great. but if I let's say just bought the camera as a beginner could you tell me some tips for cinematic shots,good stills and low light. thanks

[@MaartenHeilbron]

Thanks for the kind words, they're always appreciated. The comments area on YouTUbe is hardly the place to provide basic information about photography - I'm sure you'll find what you need with a search on KZbin.

[@ahmedjunior1977]

One of the best reviewer thanks for posting

[@MaartenHeilbron]

Very kind of you to say, thanks!

[@MaartenHeilbron]

The lens I like best, particularly for video, is the 14-42 - which is a good place to start. If you need other specialized lenses later, you'll figure that out. There are lots of inexpensive longer zooms in the M4/3 range that are really not suited to video, so beware the bundle.

[@worldrecord54]

Maarten. You deserve the walk of fame star. There is no one who can give a camera review the way you can. I have listened to the top name people on you tube. Tobyrec Tony Northrup, Camerastore, Yuri? Cannot pronounce last name, and dozens of others. You helped me make up my mind. Can't thank you enough.

[@MaartenHeilbron]

[@mydrinos]

That's the exact review I was looking for. Detailed, exhaustive, with great views and menu explorations and still, short enough and catchy. I've been looking for my first camera for the last 2 years, hesitated a lot, but now I'm completely seduced! Thanks big time and keep up the good work, you might have the best review composition I've seen on YT.

[@MaartenHeilbron]

[@MaartenHeilbron]

Thanks for your kind words, that does sound like a good deal.

[@Techtablets]

Amazing review, helpful as I'm looking at this camera.

[@MaartenHeilbron]

+TechTablets.com I'm so glad to hear, thanks for taking the time to comment.

[@Techtablets]

+Maarten Heilbron Have you tried the Nikon J5? It also shoots 4k video with a similar price, just wondering if it's any good.

[@MaartenHeilbron]

+TechTablets.com I see you've found it, I hope it was helpful. In my mind, it's not really comparable. At the moment, Panasonic's 4K video features are quite a bit ahead of the rest - unless you're considering an A7S (or A7Sm2) with a Shogun, but that's a substantially different ballpark.

[@Techtablets]

+Maarten Heilbron Very helpful, but I see what you mean. The Nikon 1 J5 isn't what I'm after. I'm looking at this G7 or the smaller, but fully featured RX100M now. Thanks for your reply.Sony CyberShot DSC-RX100 IV

[@MaartenHeilbron]

+TechTablets.com If you are considering the RX100M3 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hn7GiqWhrq-soKs or RX100M4 kzbin.info/www/bejne/eaGWgHp8YrWbpZY, also consider the Panasonic LX100 kzbin.info/www/bejne/lX3LpKWZbtR6a7c - also a very capable 4K performer.

[@joshuajdlemmens165]

I have looked at almost a dozen reviews and some are long and drawn out on the G7. Yours by far is the most clear, informative and succinct, dealing with the questions people are really asking about the G7 and under 15 minutes.... Koodos

[@virtualsoul7861]

I am in awe. First of all, thank you for this comprehensive review. I got here because Ian trying to decide between Canon M3 and LUMIX G7. May I ask for your thoughts?

[@MaartenHeilbron]

It's always my pleasure, and it's so nice to read your kind words. Between the two, I'd probably choose the G7. Although the M3 has a larger sensor, it's overall handling and the lack of native lenses make it less attractive to me.

[@gvnproductions1037]

This was not only the best G7 review I have seen, but probably THE BEST review of any consumer device I have ever seen. Unbelievable detail, flow, and GREAT user feedback on features. Thank you for the time it took you to make this video. Made my buying decision very clear!

[@MaartenHeilbron]

+GVN Productions I'm so glad you took the time to comment, and I certainly appreciate your praise and kind words. Thank you.

[@gvnproductions1037]

+Maarten Heilbron Just want to say, I received my G7 today, and man is it a piece of art! This is my first "real" camera, so thank you once again. Could you please recommend an SD card that will play very nicely with this camera? I wouldn't mind spending a little extra for a quality card.

[@MaartenHeilbron]

+GVN Productions So glad to hear you're enjoying it. Panasonic makes excellent (i not the best) SD cards, I use the 64GB SDXC U3. My local video shop (where I buy cards) likes to guess which camera I'm reviewing by the card I've come in to purchase - he knew I had a G7 when I asked for this card last summer. I also have several Sandisk Extreme Pro 64GB u3 cards, they also work well - currently in a Nikon d750.

[@gvnproductions1037]

+Maarten Heilbron Hi Maarten, quick question! I've used my G7 to take some shots at Virginia Beach this week. I walked the boardwalk and took some shots also on the edge of the water. I've now read that many recommend NOT bringing your DSLR to the beach, and now I am worried! Do you think the G7 is good at protecting itself from the sand with the wind? I didn't change the lens at all, and made sure I put the cap back after shots. Any thoughts/comments on this? Please help me feel at ease!

[@MaartenHeilbron]

+GVN Productions Wow, I've never read that, do it all the time and have never had any kind of problem. Yes, as you point out, it's wise to be careful, particularly if you're changing lenses, but otherwise, that's part of the normal conditions - a little wind, a few grains of sand or ocean spray won't have any negative impact. I've walked and shot along many kilometres of beach all over the world and I've sometimes had to use the dust brush to clean off a little sand after a day at the beach, but nothing that's affected operation of the camera in any way. Yes, I put the cap on when I'm not shooting, but I'm not fanatic about it.

[@mp4podcastDOTcom]

[@Dr23rippa]

All we need now is better battery life, here is a thought for all camera manufactures but I'd like to see Panasonic use it especially for there GM1 or GM5 use a battery li-ion from mobile phone companies in the cameras, since the Pansonic battery is less than 1500mah and smart phones have 2000+

[@yunggtape]

Hello Sir! It's me again. I guess you can recognize me. The Lumix GX850 is all perfect to me, but it not available in my country, and though it is soon available, the price here will be very higher than its original price... However, I've found myself in love with Panasonic Lumix G7. The more I know about G7, the more I like it.

[@MaartenHeilbron]

The G7 is also a good choice.

[@HelpatHomeJim]

Maarten, your review of the G7 is the first REAL review I have seen. Many reviews are superficial, but you have shown so many of the positive aspects of this camera. And now, it is truly a bargain at $497 on Amazon. I've heard that the auto focus for video is pretty poor, but I've also heard that if you just go manual and click your mobile screen to lock focus, it is golden. I'm using a Cannon Rebel SL2 to shoot my cooking channel. I love this camera so much, but I'm looking for the benefits of 4k, such as the ability to zoom in and not loose quality. Thanks for the great review.

[@MaartenHeilbron]

Thanks, I appreciate your kind words. That sounds like a great deal for this camera.

[@MaartenHeilbron]

Thanks for the kind words, but sadly, there is no work around for this limitation.

[@KCKickReviews]

You need to do a full blown tutorial on this camera. I'm looking into buying this camera and you clearly know your stuff. A lot of ppl do reviews and sometimes I wonder if they think a camera has a major flaw simply because THEY don't know the solution. But nonetheless, phenomenal video sir. As someone said before, this is one of the best reviews on anything.

[@MaartenHeilbron]

That's very kind of you to say. However, this late in the camera's release cycle, I don't think a tutorial is in the cards, sorry.

[@Sviolinist]

I'm buying it today. There is one reviewer who did an extensive test of the G7 and the GH4 and he determined that the ISO settings work better on the G7 for night shots. You get way less grain. I was very excited when I heard that it is so similar to the pricier GH4 model.

[@MaartenHeilbron]

+Sviolinist It is very similar, that's its primary appeal. That's an interesting result, I would have judged them as roughly identical for ISO.

Great review, I really appreciate how thoroughly this goes into the camera's features and user interface, and in general just how demonstrative it is - almost all the other reviews I've seen for this camera were fairly surface level in those aspects, often just stating the features and *maybe* saying how well that works for them or not. This one, though, shows the features in action on the camera with screen recordings, and gives me a much better idea of what it's like to actually use. I like the flow of the review as well, even if I can't quite articulate why.

Best video on the g7 I have found. I have been looking for my next camera and the g7 is my serious choice. Thank you

I've had it a week and it very nice thus far.

[@MaartenHeilbron]

Good to hear, thanks for commenting.

Another review just about as feature-packed as the G7 itself! Very useful indeed, thanks. I'm now giving this camera more serious attention. I particularly like the shots of the LCD showing the menu structure and screen information as you describe each feature. I could almost be there!

[@MaartenHeilbron]

+964tractorboy That's very kind of you to say, thanks! I do my best to give viewers a real sense of how the camera performs with screen captures and sample images and video.

Great video. I love my G7 as well. I learn few functions from your video. G7 has so many functions that it's not easy to remember them all. :)

[@MaartenHeilbron]

+Ryan Woo Thanks for taking the time to comment - glad to hear you're enjoying the G7, and I completely sympathize - it's a lot to remember, particularly when you're confronted with a particular setting and situation. I often got back and thought that the camera actually offered a better way to approach the scene than I'd used.

Thank you for giving me the link to this video, for an "older" camera, the G-7 packs an amazing array of useful features.

[@MaartenHeilbron]

It does - there are several older models, like the G7 and Sony A6000 that are holding up well.

I know I'm late to the party, but super, super, super well done review! I have already ordered the camera, but now I feel like I've learned so much about it's use without even having it in my hands yet. Awesome job, and I will certainly subscribe to keep up to date :D
