Panasonic Lumix G7 Review | Worth Buying?

[@konghere]

This camera is definitely the best entry level dslr camera. I did a lot of research back in 2017 and I never regret purchasing it. I still use it to this day.

Yeah man, really great camera for sure even in 2021! Thanks for watching!

[@Altohamy]

can i see your results using this camera?

[@konghere]

@Altohamy check out my very first video, about the food trucks. I shot it with the g7. Word of advice, get the lumix g85. It's a step up from the g7. I sold my g7 and got the g85.

[@Altohamy]

why not choosing sony a6400 or canon 80d ? @@konghere

[@konghere]

@Altohamy I got the g7 at the time (around 2017?) because of price point and general well roundedness of usage for videography. From what I recall I did all the research for all budget mirrorless dslrs at the time and the G7 for me felt like the best well rounded beginner camera for videography.

[@TheGuigotz]

Was my first "professional" camera, was really good to learn everything, if I didn´t have sold it I would keep it as a Cam B

Great camera for people who are just starting out for sure! I use it all the time in combination with my GH5 😁 Really great camera! Abraço Guilherme!

[@alexandredesmonts35]

What did you buy now?

[@leonyang6299]

@ Can you make a video about your GH5 setting?

[@sethu3926]

@ ok bro

[@MarioSanchez-lh7wo]

Awesome , what’s the cam A at the moment ?

[@tearitloosetearitloose4670]

I got the G7 back in 2016. It's a bloody good camera. I still use it in 2021 for paid work (real estate & portrait)

That's awesome to hear! Definitely a great camera for this year and for years to come. I'm curious , what lenses do you use?

[@Daoldman]

I just bought a canon t7 now im running to go get this camera because its on sale and your video was great!

[@DrFurb]

The footage you took with this is jaw dropping. Then you could probably make any hardware do incredible things

Thanks very much for the positive feedback! And thanks for watching 🙂

[@SachinJAS]

Amazing Review... But in the amazon, it shows that G7 can shoot upto 50fps only. Is there any major difference between 50fps and 60fps? and there is any chance to affect the footage when I slowed it down?

Thanks very much 🙂 The G7 can shoot in 1080p 60fps. But if you're buying the camera in a PAL area/country you will need to do a little trick to change the settings to NTSC and unlock the 1080p 60fps and 4K 30fps. You can check out this video tutorial to make these changes on the camera: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jX2WaHqhoLKUiNE My camera came with the PAL settings as well and I changed it to NTSC according to the video above. The difference between 50fps and 60fps is that you will achieve more slow motion if you're using 60fps rather than 50fps. I hope this helps!

[@SachinJAS]

@ Thanks a lot for the clear explanation, this helps me a lot☺️

You're welcome 🙂

[@THEMARCKNIGHT]

I bought my G7 in 2018 as well :D I use it for KZbin videos, Stockfootage and short films. I was able to get smoother shots by adding some weight to the camera with a Camvate universal cage and a wodden handle. I mainly use the 12-60mm f3.5 and the 45-150mm f4.5. I like the camera very much, but would like to upgrade to a G85 or even GH5, but that is currently out of my budget

I shot some stock footage with it as well... Really great camera. Yeah man with those 2 lenses you have pretty much every focal length covered... That's awesome. I'm a big fan of adding weight to the cameras using cages.. For run and gun jobs that's the best! I have one cage and wodden handle for my GH5 and I definitely recommend it. Thanks for stopping by! Cheers from Portugal 😎

Because a lot of you guys asked, I just posted a new KZbin video showing *my camera settings for the Panasonic Lumix G7!* You can check it out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJnWaYicfZmVhLs I hope you'll enjoy!

[@Beepbawp]

Great video. I'm about to pull the trigger on a used one to get started on my photography journey!!!!

Thanks man! Go get those photos! 📷😎

[@traintrambus]

I’ve used medium format to mft and although the larger the sensor the better however in natural light I get very good images, more than the needs of social media. The matrix metering is one of the best which again surprisingly pleasing. In recent years I’ve used an old Yashica 127b, Nikon Df, Nikon D750, Nikon D3500, Fuji X100f and the Fuji Xt30 mark II. While wandering around a local department store I noticed the G7 going for £350 and I could not resist. Years ago I had a GX7 which was surprisingly good so I’m g well pleased with the G7 performance. I am thinking of doing video again and this camera does fit into my plans.

That's great!

[@andreigiurgiuman5160]

Nice video, man! I've had a different experience regarding the low light performance of the G7. I've found it to be about one stop better than the GH4 and pretty much on par with the GH5. Of course, it depends what's your use case and your acceptable level of noise, but I wouldn't consider low light performance as a downside, given it goes head to head with the GH5.

Thanks man! I totally understand your point. For me, I just don't like having to deal with noise, and even though for some people it might be acceptable, for me it's not... I guess it's a matter of taste. But totally understand your point because the capabilities of this camera are a lot similar to the GH5! Again, thanks for stopping by and for the comment as well! See you around!

[@michobenz4531]

@ is dmc-g7 and g7 the same thing? I'm just considering to start videography especially shooting music and events videos would you recommend G7 or Gh5. Thanks

@@michobenz4531 hey man! Yes it is the g7! 😁 The g7 is a great camera! Of course the gh5 is better (and if you have the money I totally recommend it) but it is also more expensive... If you're on a budget the g7 will do for sure. And if you wanna benefit with image stabilization I recommend the Panasonic Lumix g85… which is basically the g7 with image stabilization! Thanks for watching!

[@michobenz4531]

@ thanks for the nice videos and your guidance I love watching it. I just bought G7 this morning with 14-140 lens. Kindly is there a specific lens you recommend for G7 for music video? Thanks I just bought

[@michobenz4531]

@ quick one, would u choose GH5? Or Fujifilm XT3 😊

[@rolfw2336]

I'm shopping for entry level video cams.. I liked your "pros" and "cons", which gives me a better idea about the G7! obrigado Vitor!

Glad it was helpful!

[@TsvetanVLife]

I love this camera, I have used it just for a few mounths, i got it from friend but it was great! I love Lumix cameras, my first camera is GH3 and I still got it! :)

Great camera for sure. Even with all the the new cameras that are coming out lately, I still think that it has a great value for the price! Love the Panasonics 😎 Cheers

[@divisionoflabor3070]

Glad to see someone still promoting M43 in 2021 :) I own 2 of these little beasts. Can't wait for the Gh6 to come out. Cheers and excellent work!

Thanks very much! Yeah, everyone is using full frame cameras these days... But I love using M43 😎 Me too, can't wait for the gh6! Thanks for watching

[@betzakasha2853]

Great video! it has always been a dream for me to start doing filmaking and i found a g7 for cheap and i will go to check it out

Thanks 😃 Awesome! I think you'll enjoy it 😉

[@betzakasha2853]

@ i can get it for about 270$ do you think its good? any advice on how to check if the camera is good?

I think is a great deal 😉

Hey guys, I hope you liked this video! So what you guys think of the Lumix G7?

[@geekdroid8059]

Great bro..but reduce the background music a little bit

@@geekdroid8059 thanks man! I was a little bit in doubt about the background music volume as well when I was exporting... I will definitely be more careful next time... Thanks 😎

[@fightsportsworldwide9776]

Great camera, used to own two, repaid themselves in no time. Shot music videos on them, product videos, and even some pictures that got published in magazines. Unbeatable for the price.

@@fightsportsworldwide9776 yeah man, really great camera for the price... Your photos we're published in magazines?... Oh man that's awesome! Congrats on that! Cheers 😁

[@newnowproject8730]

Thanks for all your awesome videos about the G7! Gotta say you nudged me towards buying it as my new run and gun camera

That's awesome man! I hope you enjoy your new camera 😉 Thanks very much for watching!

[@christophuncharted8625]

Thanks for the in depth video! I have a G7 as well and you’ve really showed me a lot more that can be done with it. Do you have any behind the scene videos that show how you get your cinematic shots with the G7?

Thanks very much man! I am planning to do a whole bunch of videos with behind the scenes footage to show how I work with the G7 and with the GH5. Stay tuned for that! See you around 🙂

[@TLMuse]

@Christoph - Vitor did post a follow-up on this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJnWaYicfZmVhLs

[@luisangel2978]

Very instructive video as well as your excellent free LUTs to achieve cinematic look. I'm testing my new G7 for one week. The only what i am missing is stabilization. Do you think its worth the change for the G80/85 for its IBIS vs spending for a gimbal? As i put some old lenses the weight of the gear is almost 1kg so I dont find a "cheap" ( around 200€) gimbal.

Thanks very much Luis! I think it really depends on what kind of footage you are shooting... Having the ibis will help you getting more stabilization overall, but it will never deliver that gimbal look. In my opinion you will be better of with a gimbal + G7. Thanks very much for watching

[@joanarodrigues9724]

Really great camera for the price. Awesome video as well! 😊

😘

[@anzo_asmr2366]

Excellent information my friend Keep up the great work 👍 just couple of questions..1) do you also recommend Lumix G85? I own the Sony a7iii and I love that camera but I need a secondary camera..2)is the Panasonic Lumix cameras a step down comparing with Sony? Should I get Lumix camera as a secondary option?

[@bahiaproductions125]

The quality of your videos is Amazing

Thank you very much! 😁

[@FlavoredGenuine]

The LUMIX G7’s definitely something I am looking for because I’m looking forward to starting out as a content creator and that I want to have some great 1080p/4K video quality. Anyways, great review and I’ll be keeping my eye on it and looking for great deals to help save me money down the road whenever I get the opportunity to buy it.

[@fatbellyproduction4199]

Probably the best review of G7 till now. Would you mind sharing about a video editing software for 4k video?

Thank you very much! 😁 There are some awesome softwares out there... Premiere Pro; Final Cut Pro X or DaVinci Resolve are great options! Cheers 😁

[@TheSayan8]

I have two options Sony a6000 or Panasonic Lumix G7. Heared some cons about G7 so decided to buy a6000 next month but today found your contents. I think Panasonic Lumix G7 will be the best! And also fits my budget :)

I always say that the best camera is the camera that you already have, but if you don't own any camera, then I think that the G7 is a great option! Thanks for watching 🙂

[@jeffslade1892]

If you need a headphone jack I suggest getting a HDMI to an adaptor with a 3.5 TRS jack, and a little headphone amplifier, about the size of the camera battery. If you're recording a rock band you need the headphone level way up. One peculiarity of the Panasonic TRRS mic input jack is the pin assignment is completely different to standard e.g. Rode Stereo-Mic with a TRS plug, you need a little converter cable. The Panasonic Stereo Shotgun mic has three microphones and uses all four pins.

😀

[@nicolasmaloney6985]

Hey awesome video. What camera and settings did you use to shoot the talking scenes here as well? Keep up the amazing work!

Hey Nicolas! I was using my Lumix GH5 camera with my Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 Lens to record the talking head in this video. For the settings you can watch my latest video (How to Make a Short Film), and I talk about my GH5 settings in that video. Thanks for watching!

[@lbslott]

Awesome video! I do have a question though, is the kit lens a good lens or should I invest in a more expensive lens? Thank you!

Thanks very much! If you want to level up your video or photography, I definitely recommend invest in one of the lenses I mentioned in the video. Thanks very much for watching 🙂

[@lbslott]

You're welcome!

great video brother...i am confused between nikon d3500 and lumix g7 as i am a beginner or may be a hobbyist you can say but i would like to use my very first camera for photos mostly so which one would you suggest

Thanks man! The G7 is a very nice all around camera for both video and photo. But if photography is your primary focus I would go with the Nikon. Thanks for watching

[@chetansaurkar8557]

@ thanks 🙏

[@jmvideografia6009]

Sou o feliz proprietário de uma G7 desde 2016 e a maquina continua a trabalhar sem falhas, adicionei a lente 12-35mm F2.8 e WOW!!! Estou orgulhoso da minha pikena!!!

É mesmo grande máquina para o preço 😎 Sempre tive curiosidade na 12-35 f2.8, mas nunca a expementei... Que achas dela?

[@jmvideografia6009]

@ Não tenho grande experiência com lentes nativas, apenas usei a do Kit e depois passei para a 12-35. tive a 50mm f1.8 da Nikon e tenho ainda uma Helios 58mm F2.0. Relativamente a 12-35mm acho fantastica, o f2.8 constante mudou completamente a minha forma de trabalhar, o estabilizador trabalha mesmo bem e não tenho nada a apontar quanto a qualidade de imagem. Só tenho pena pois 35mm, por vezes, torna-se bastante limitativo, mas a 12-60 não oferece F2.8 constantes, de modo que fiquei pela 12-35 e estou bastante satisfeito.

@@jmvideografia6009 Muito fixe! Toda a gente diz que a 12-35 é Top... Obrigado pelo feedback. Grande abraço :)

[@liamtemper2014]

Great review! I think it's still a good deal in 6 years from now! It's a very powerful little camera!

Very good review,I own a Pentax K50 but want a good video camera after malfunction 0f my video camera.Even with the low light and auto focus issue your review overall helped me make my decision, thanks..good job..

[@steamo369]

For videography (mostly indoor) which one would you recommend iphone 13 or lumix g7? For most productivity + most value for money

[@ksnrich]

Don’t know if I should regret buying lumix g7 as my first brand new camera in 2023… i have the option to buy the a6400 but still opted for the g7. Hope I can still make great outputs with this camera

[@ksnrich]

Your videos using the g7 made me feel like g7 is worth buying though! Thanks for this. I will definitely try using this for a film.

[@funnydashmania]

Love all the details in this video! I'm thinking about buying the G7 - but have one question... If I were to set this camera up on a tripod, click record - would it record a wedding ceremony? Is sound and auto-focus strong enough on it's own? (my wedding ceremony hahaa. So I would not be able to monitor the camera) Would love to hear what you think, thank you!

The g7 only records 30 minutes at a time, so you would have to press the record button every 30 minutes. Also, I don't recommend using the autofocus features on this camera! So, it can definitely use this camera for wedding ceremony but you would need to press the record button every 30 minutes and you would have to use manual focus. Thanks for watching

[@poeticfigher]

Loved the video, Got 1 of these cameras recently. Did you know about the nintendo code like hack to get unlimited recording ?. I have no need for longer record times for what i am shooting but its a nice little hack when you need it to go the extra mile.

[@MrBrannew20]

What's the hack bro

@@MrBrannew20 better to watch this video. Haven't tried it personally tho. A bit cautious with my new/old camera. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIa8qY2jh9ljgbc

Thanks man! I've heard about that little hack... Although I never tried it. I guess I'm gonna try it any time soon 😜 Thanks for stopping by

[@DopamineOverload]

Were there any improvements on the autofocus, for vlogging or product videos? Great, informative video... excellent footage and points made. Thanks!

Thanks man! I never use auto focus, but the last time I tested, the autofocus was not good with this camera.

[@DopamineOverload]

@ Got mine a couple days ago. I really like it (and it's KILLER for filmmaking / cinematic stuff). But you're right... the autofocus isn't great, at all. Not a deal-breaker. I also bought a Canon M50 MKII (for the autofocus mainly). They're both great cameras but I have to say I prefer the look and functions of the Lumix G7! You've done some amazing work with it... and I've seen a ton of other people do beautiful work as well. It's worth it, in my humble opinion!

[@r_faisal]

Hi, good budget camera recommendation video. I planning to buy a hybrid camera, need light camera to bring it for my trip blog or job. After saw the budget camera ecosystem, between Lumix G7/G85 or Sony A6100, which what better of them? Thanks if you answer this, good luck Vitor. 👍🏼

I use Panasonic cameras. But because I've never used Sony A6100, I cannot say if it would be better or worse than Panasonic cameras. Thanks for watching!

[@randygerson911]

I'm looking at the g85 for a little more future proofing- slight but noticeable- but if that falls through, I might get the g7 as a starter. I know the g95 line(s) and the GH line(s) exists, but at my level of entry as a hobbyist just looking to explore- spending 2x (or more) seems like potential overkill until I know what my needs as a creator are.

I actually started with my G7 and after a while I bought the GH5 to upgrade the production value of my videos. I'm very happy with both cameras and if you're just starting out, I think that the G7 or G85 will be a good decision! Thanks for watching 🙂

[@OpenFilmmaker]

I own one but I need to learn how to use it. Now I started doing everything on manual. This is the one way I will learn.

Awesome! Definitely! I think the best way to speed up the learning curve is to force yourself to shoot in manual. It might be weird at first but it's so worth it in the long run. I thing this video will help you with manual settings: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJnWaYicfZmVhLs Good luck!

[@petepictures]

I bought mine a month ago and am very happy for video. not so for photos

That's awesome! I hope you are enjoying the camera so far! Yeah I do have the same opinion! But I think that if photos aren't your primary focus, it's a great camera to take some decent pictures as well... Thanks for watching 🙂

[@TyronSi]

Bought mine last year, I'm still using it with just the kit lens it comes with it. I would like to know what's your suggestion for lens if I'm going to do vlogging and cinematic style for hobby. Thank you!

The kit lens can do wonders, but fastest lenses will take to the next level for sure! I think that the Lumix 12-35mm f2.8 will get you very nice results for vlog and cinematic video. And if you could invest and pair it with the 42.5mm f1.7 you will have a very powerful kit for almost anything! Thanks for stopping by 😀

I'm thinking of buying it but I'm concerned that there is no headphone jack. How do you monitor the sound? Just on the touch screen? Is that good enough? What mic set up do you recommend? love your videos and your style. Thanks.

Hi Andrea! It's a great camera for sure. Yeah, there's no headphone jack, so that can be a pain when you want to monitor your audio properly. The workaround for that is to have the audio levels showing on the LCD screen and make sure they are not peaking (turning red). For the mic set up I recommend the deity v-mic d3 pro. That's a great all-around mic in my opinion. I hope this helps 🙂

[@XDATT]

I currently use the panasonic G7.....Amazing camera though I'm ready to upgrade to maybe the Panasonic G9 or GH5 or should i switch to the sony A7iii? Any advice?

Hey! I do have the GH5 and I'm very happy with what it can do! I think that it's a tough decision choosing between the GH5 and the A7III. The A7III is definitely better with autofocus, low light, and depth of field giving you much more bokeh! And it's better for photography for sure. But because it's a full frame, the lenses are very expensive. The GH5 in the other hand is a lot more focused to video specs, offering the amazing 4K 10bit 422 internal and the amazing IBIS, and the lenses are a lot cheaper leaving you with some extra money to invest in lighting and other important gear! I think that in the end they are both great cameras and it all depends on your budget and what you wanna do with the camera! Hope this helps! 😉 Thanks for stopping by!

[@JustinMannMedia]

While I love my G7, I’m torn at the moment. I want more stabilization in my footage. I use a monopod which helps tremendously but walking footage proposes a problem. I ninja walk but still can’t get the stability I want, even in post (plus I hate the warp effect). A ronin sc would be great but at close to $300 US, you’re almost halfway to a g85 WITH IBIS. I don’t think a camvate or small rig cage with attachments would help much so I ask, what do you use for stability and would it be worth it to jump to the g85 or get a gimbal? Thanks.

Hi Justin, thanks for reaching out! As I said in this video, the lack of stabilization on the G7 is definitely a downside of this camera... Because I own the G7 for several years now, I learned how to work around this issue. For me, I either use a tripod for locked out shots, or use a gimbal for motion shots. The gimbal I use is the feiyutech a2000, and even though it's an old gimbal, it can get the job done. You can find better gimbals nowadays though... I bought mine several years ago. Now, regarding your question, I don't think the G85 for itself would give the results you're looking for. For walking motion footage, if you use solely the G85 without any gimbal or glidecam, you will experience shaky footage as well! The Ibis helps a little bit that's true, but the Ibis for itself will not solve your problem. A small rig cage will help a little for handheld footage but only when shooting without walking too much, so a rig cage will not solve your problem either. Therefore, I would recommend buying a gimbal to pair with the G7, instead of buying a G85 or a small rig cage. If you want to get smoth footage when walking, G7 + gimbal, is in my opinion the best solution for your problem, and you will save some money as well. The only downside, is that you will have to hustle a little bit when balancing the gimbal with the camera... I hope this helps! 🙂

@ thanks for the reply Vitor. I’ve filmed a few weddings on the G7with a gimbal (the bigger Ronin I believe) and enjoyed it but got my arms workout for the day because how heavy it was. Footage was pretty smooth with very little stab in post in FCP X. I did shoot another wedding with a GH5 handheld and with a monopod and surprisingly the handheld footage turned out pretty nice, but not as nice as the Ronin. I may look into the Ronin SC because of its lightweight functionality. I bought a cheap Amazon “glidecam” (Neewer) that I just didn’t like. Because of how light the G7 is, is hard to get it weighted correctly, at least for me that is. For the time being, I may just save up and wait for the GH6 if that ever happens. Great videos you have and again, thanks for the reply.

@@JustinMannMedia you're quite welcome 🙂 I can definitely relate to that! In the past I've shot some weddings, and I used both the GH5 on a cage rig and a G7 on a gimbal. Weddings can be very fisically exhausting. For me, because my gimbal is not as heavy as the Ronin S, and I overall I found those 2 camera setups to be very similar when it comes to weight. I'm with you brother, waiting for the GH6, not quite sure when it will come out though! Cheers man!

I believe another con would be you can’t use an external monitor, or am I wrong on that? Great video.

You're right! This camera don't allow to use external monitor while recording. Thanks for watching

Hello! I am using 2x Sony A7III. Its good idea to buy this Lumix G7 as a C camera for wedding ceremony? Shooting flat profile 4k

Hey! I think is an excellent choice... But you might have to do a little bit of tweaking in post production in order to match the Panasonic colours to the Sony's, because you will have 2 different colour sciences. Thanks for watching

[@bharatvasra]

Is there is a requirement of overexposing the cinelike-d footage to get the maximum dynamic range out of LUMIX G7??

[@norberz9164]

Can you make , how you configurate thelumox g7, for your videos? And how you color grade It , I'm a Panasonic Lover and I'm just start with this camera .

Hey! I'm planning to do a bunch of content related to this camera! Stay tuned for that! Thanks for watching 😎

[@Tanz_Productions]

Should i sell my lumix g7 and get sony A7iii?

[@techtipswithhadi1932]

I was thinking about buying this camera for my KZbin channel but is the auto focus good? And should l buy this camera?I shoot on a iPhone 7.

Hey! As I said in the video, the autofocus is not good in this camera.

[@shanevader4123]

Hi Vitor, I am a beginner and bought this camera after much research. It seemed by far the best camera in it's price range. I just bought an off market (Rokinon) 14mm F2.8 Full Frame Ultra Wide Angle Lens. I was hoping to be able to get stunning far off landscape and even Milky Way night shots. Now after seeing your video I'm a bit concerned about the ISO. Will the lens make it possible to get good quality clear shots with a higher than 800 ISO? for starry sky shots I'd need to bring that up to 2,500 or so wouldn't I? I appreciate your feedback.

Hey! It really depends on what you think it's "acceptable noise". For me 800 ISO on the G7 is the limit, but you might have a different opinion after testing and experimenting with different ISO settings on this camera. For the lens you mentioned, beeing a full frame lens, I think you will also need an adapter or speedbooster to be able to mount it on a micro four thirds camera...

[@shanevader4123]

@ It's actually comes in a 4/3 mount lens. I hope to be able to get those night sky shots but maybe it is just not possible. I guess you can't have everything. Thanks!

If you're doing long exposure night photography I think you will be completely fine. For video, it will really depend on how you like the noise that will be introduced in your shots due to the high ISO settings. For some people that's not that big of a deal, but for others it is. But I think you will be fine overall 😉 Thanks very much for watching!

[@red14red63]

I like what you said about this camera does it standby power concern. I m looking for a camera that I can use shooting video events for 2 hours… clean HDMI out and does the camera stay on for two hours or however long the battery last ????

With this camera you will not be able to record more than 30 minutes straight without having to press record again. I don't do live streams.

[@BadKarma714]

What setting do you use when making your videos on your lumix G7

Thanks for asking! Actually I'm planning a full video dedicated to share my G7 settings. Stay tuned for that!

Hi man I enjoyed your video. New subscriber here.

Thanks very much 😀 I really appreciate you being a part of this community! See you around 😃

[@user-fl4wn9dn2c]

I have the G85 I feel they are equal on video? the G85 has IBIS that is decent and weather sealing and I think that is only difference?

Hey man! I believe that's the difference between the two as well!

[@user-fl4wn9dn2c]

@ really like my G85

[@sahityayadav8577]

Which I buy ? G7 vs fuzi flim xt100 vs g5 , I want good low light performance and good pictures too . What do you think suggest me . Love your video.

Thanks very much. 🙂 I don't know about the Fuji. But if you want very good low light performance, I wouldn't recommend the Lumix. Sony's have the reputation that you're looking for...

[@sahityayadav8577]

@ thanks 😁 ✌️

Amazing work Lad.

Thanks very much! So what do you think of the G7?

[@P9ultimate2]

@ G7 is just Amazing...iam gonna buy it

@@P9ultimate2 Nice, my man! I hope you enjoy it!

[@kristaylor7119]

Hey man, I have a question. I recorded some footage in 4K 24fps, but when I imported it into DaVinci resolve, it interpreted the footage at 30fps. Not sure if this is a G7 issue or DaVinci issue, have you got any tips here?

Hey Kris, I don't use DaVinci, but I'm assuming that you need to create a 23.976 FPS timeline on DaVinci resolve and then import your footage to the timeline. But you can always look for tutorials on that to make sure that you are messing around with your frame rates. Thanks for watching!

[@kristaylor7119]

@ I figured it out, when I converted it to DNxHD footage, I accidentally had 29.97 ticked. My fault.

[@VijitChandna]

Good review thanks 😊

Thank you very much for your comment and for stopping by! I really appreciate you! 😀

[@WORLDDRUMCLUB]

Great video. Just added a G7 as a 3rd to my GH4s. Even though it’s on plug-in power and I have the audio level turned off, I still see the meter in the HDMI output (to a ATEM). How do I get a clean HDMI signal?

[@jens5786]

in the settings is an option for "clean HDMI output"

Glad it helped!

Thanks

Hello Vitor, God bless! Hey do you have any videos where u go into how to best use the settings on this camera. Also are u accepting in client work?

Hi! I don't have a G7 in depth settings video on KZbin yet because I'm just filming that video as we talk! Stay tuned, I will upload it very very soon. Thanks very much for the support 🙂

[@SavedPulley]

@ awesome God bless you brother. We will be waiting for the video. We need it.

In which camera is this video shooted?

GH5

[@MiguelCovarrubias19]

Just got my G7 and it's my first camera, i'm very happy with it. I'm thinking on getting a gimbal for this camera, do you recommend any model?

[@ChristophRapp]

DJi and Ronin SC works great!!

Hey! I have a link in the description of this video to the gimbal I use. It's very cheap and works great with this camera!

[@MiguelCovarrubias19]

@ thank you bro! great work with that cinematic G7 commercial, i loved it!
