Sony A6300 vs Panasonic G7 - Whats The Best Budget 4K Camera?

[@BrainDesmo]

I've been using the G7 and I have no regrets. The kit lens has surprised me. With that said I do have the 25mm F1.4., which is awesome. I've enjoyed photography again, I would recommend the G7 without reservations.

[@linussak5655]

is there noticable evf lag?

[@BrainDesmo]

+linus sak (LinusB2) , in 60fps mode it's barely perceptible.

[@linussak5655]

+BrainDesmo barley noticeable? never heard perceptible

[@BrainDesmo]

[@linussak5655]

+BrainDesmo ah okey so like making a fast twist with the camera will make the lag noticeable?

[@wyoruss]

I went with the g7. I love it so far! The a6300 would have had me sold but I wanted a fully articulating touch screen. Maybe The Gh5 will have amazing auto focus Like the canon 80d. Then I will get that.

[@drwalka10]

+wyo russ iF THE A6300 had a fully articulating touch screen .... it would have destroyed everybody

[@wyoruss]

agreed!

[@ShaneFredrickKinsman]

+wyo russ After shooting with Panasonic you'll find the Canon image incredibly soft. I did some Beta testing on the G-6, which was and still is one of the best cameras I've ever shot on, including high end cinema cameras costing 10x more. The G7 seems to have the same mojo as the g6, though I haven't got my hands on one yet ,Thanks Panasonic!!! still waiting!!!The new Sony rx10iii has an incredible feature set, I've never thought I would take a second glance at a camera with a built in lens, but that camera is crazy good. 1' Sensor, which is a bit smaller than m4/3rds, or equivalent to s16mm film cam, but with the 24-600 lens, you wont have any issue getting a shallow dof when needed. The real gem is it shoots 960fps in 1080p. Pretty incredible for a 1,400 camera.

[@ElaireBand]

Totally agree. I had GH4 but believing or not I prefer my G6. something technically is so right with that camera.

[@abundance1219]

how are the photo capabilities

[@Traveler-777]

No mention of the serious overheating problem with the a6300. That's just irresponsible man. You should update your review.

[@ArtZoneEspanol]

-Using G7 through my phone is incredible, you can autofocus, change ISO and filters, take pictures, etc. from your phone so I don't have to step all the way to the G7 in order to modify a setting.

[@NathanLaValley]

I use the g7 for my channel and I have to say I love the camera! The vast amount of lens options is incredible, and a few days ago I completely soaked the camera in the rain while recording (in the video called "New Christmas Music??") and it's fine! I'm so glad that I bought it!

[@MrGulyo]

Sony is NOT a budget camera....

[@pckuching3374]

Sony is a OVERHEAT camera for sure. stay away from SONY camera and PHONE, buy SONY TV and HIFI only.

[@iasaktheklapper7461]

g7= $600 with kit lens a6300= $998 no lens might as well get the gh4 if u r gonna buy the a6300

[@bentoby2123]

lol That is very true. Im saving money for the g7

[@iasaktheklapper7461]

it depends on the camera u want i prefer a traditional feeling camera i dont like the way sony a6300 is set up but if that is u then go for it to me that was just as important as specs

[@ryanross7785]

Find the cheapest price for the camera online. Even if you think the site is unreliable. I went to bestbuy to get my camera and their price was $700. I got it down to $500 when they price match it.

[@bentoby2123]

Ryan Ross Body only is $500 for G7 right now.

[@mallucanuck]

a6300 is far better than the gh4 in practice. only problem is overheating for wich u can get a fast card and an external battery. Autofocus is supercool in a6300 and 120fps full hd. its bang for the buck.

[@erichier6551]

Sorry, but I think, that the picture of the G7 is MUCH sharper at ISO 6400 (second 5:42). The 'International Edition' on the bottom right corner is sharper.

[@Steve_Jaz]

wasnt fully focused. look at the star wars ship comparison... without a doubt the sony is WAY sharper

[@cuckooclock8514]

Don't try to convince yourself that the G7 is better. Is not. The G7 is not bad though.. you just pay less and you get less. Simple.

[@jakobbaalmann]

please tell us a bit more about the lens turbo adaptor on the a6300 !!! :)

[@mondobytes]

Good video man! A few things not mentioned that I think are worth noting is that the a6300 uses the whole sensor so there is no pixel binning. But most important is that it's taking a 6K Image and down-scaling it 4K. Funny when you zoomed in to 200% the a6300 looks way cleaner so you're going to get a much sharper image. Also, the a6300 is weather sealed and the G7 is not. That can be a huge deal breaker, I was in New York shooting with my a6300 and it started to rain and wasn't a big deal. The G7 in fact would have to be stored away and kept safe. And last thing if you use a Speedbooster with the a6300 the rolling shutter is almost non existent, pretty amazing if you ask me.

[@jorge8276]

Armando Ferreira What speed booster brand do you recommend for a Sony 6300? Please reply.

[@mondobytes]

[@jorge8276]

I have a Sony 6300 with carl ziess glass 24-70mm f.4 I like it a lot but , I missed a lot of the full frame look. Is this adapter going to help me to recover that full frame look ? Thanks a lot , Jorge.

[@seedz11]

+Armando Ferreira get a nx1 6.5k sensor 28mp 15fps the sony is a knockoff nx1 samsung camera and its a 265 file so it saves space

[@mondobytes]

seedz11 Nah, I prefer Sony way more versatile. If you look at my KZbin channel I shoot with A7SII, A7RII and a6300 and all matches perfectly. I've also shot with FS5 and FS7 and having that type of options is awesome. Also Samsung is killing their camera lineup so investing in a dead ecosystem is not a good idea.

[@leecason9468]

All these people willing to pay almost double for not double the quality lol. Sony is great, better than g7 no doubt but not 600 US Dollars more

[@IAteFire]

you can get one used for 750 bucks. It's the better deal imo, better low light, bigger sensor, 24 mp vs 16 mp, 120 fps vs only 60 fps, higher iso, great auto focus, recording in s-log2 and s-log3, weather sealed.

[@cuckooclock8514]

The difference in dynamic range is huge also huge.

[@JetSmackedHD]

Honestly i would get the g7 in a heartbeat but now i dont know anymore. I have sigma 18-35 and its actually cheaper for me to get the sony a6300 w mc-11 or pay $300CAD more for lumix g7 + speedbooster ultra. And thats used price too!

Is G7 is a full frame 4k, ??

[@byniasofficial2567]

@@hemanthnaik4613 No. It's Micro 4/3 (In terms of sensor size: Full frame > APS-C > Micro 4/3).

[@charbax]

Does G7 do 5-axis 4K video stabilization same as in GX80? Lack of image stabilization in A6300 is a bit disappointing. Touch screen for picking things and faces to focus on while shooting video is important to me. A6300 having no touchscreen seems to mean that choosing what to focus on while filming 4K is going to be an issue. Having had a terrible experience with auto-focus in my Panasonic GH3 in the last 4 years, I definitely am looking forward to better auto focus and touchscreen quick stable choosing what I want to focus on in 4K support. Being able to shoot at lower bitrate is an advantage as I would like to upload the 4K video directly to youtube without compressing on a PC each time. Samsung seems to have been the only company encoding to H265 lower bitrate in 4K, I wish they would all offer the option for H265 encoding for 4K@30fps at around or below 40mbit/second.

[@improver1849]

I agree with many of your observations. Have experienced v similar things. Enormously impressed with the h.265 on a Samsung NX500 I bought for fun (and also the autofocus). Wish more cameras had it, and that NLEs supported it. Enormously impressed with certain m43 lenses such as the 42.5mm Pan-Leica macro. Bunch of good ones, really. Wish the bodies were more capable. Takes me far too long to get up the gh4 for the casual often one man band interviews I like to do when traveling & going to tradeshows and educational events. GH4 (and perhaps GH3) based setups produce beautiful results, but are really better for small teams. It's sad the crowd bashed Sony for years for having touchscreens. They got their wish. Well, I'd love to see them back, too! The C300 Mark II has been the best & easiest to use camera I've rented by far, but the file sizes are far too enormous. 5 axis is also too brilliant to leave off of new cameras. Maybe GX80 GX85 offers some hope? Perhaps AR7III will be great

[@improver1849]

Two other things it'd be nice to see on other cameras... FS5's dynamic lcd based iris/nd filter. And RX1R IIs LCD based low pass filter. These are really next gen filters and make life so much easier.

[@improver1849]

Sorry. I meant the 45mm Elmarit macro, not 42.5. Must have been thinking of the Nocticron, which is also a tremendously nice lens, although easily swapped for a Batis on the Sony side. Got my macro cheap from Japan. www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/651734-REG/Panasonic_H_ES045_Leica_DG_Macro_Elmarit_45mm.html I can't find a macro lens like this one, honestly, from any other brand. The new Sony 90mm macro has muted colors, whereas the PanLeica has nothing but rich saturation and pop. m43 May have a small sensor, but I can't have love for it when some of the lenses are so completely (and apparently uniquely) stellar.

[@charbax]

+docstowatch I read online that GX80/GX85 has awesome 5-axis dual sensor+lens optical image stabilization, that makes it look like a steadicam when filmed handheld. But GX80/GX85 has no microphone mini jack input which makes it impossible for me to use, I need to use my Sennheiser MKE400 shotgun microphone for good audio quality. And Panasonic 4K filesize is I think at minimum 100mbit/s, which means I'd have to upload files that are 5x larger than my current 20mbit/s MP4 1080p@30fps mode in my Panasonic GH3. I wish H265 codec was available in other cameras than Samsung NX1/NX500, and I wish KZbin would allow people to upload H265 format directly from the cameras to KZbin. I would expect youtube to support H265 upload eventually. I guess the Samsung NX1/NX500 weren't popular enough for KZbin to pay attention and support that H265 codec for uploads yet. Makes no sense for me to re-encode all the NX1 files to double the size H264 just to be able to upload the 4K videos to youtube. I might be waiting for Panasonic GH5, but that may be a long wait, it might not be available before 2017 according to what someone is writing in a forum online. I hope GH5 and other cameras soon support H265 encoding and KZbin support it. I also wish cameras had automatic intro and transparent watermark and basic cut/join editing in-camera, and like the Panasonic VX991 camcorder with that second camera facing the interviewer, would be nice with a switch to switch to second or third smartphone/wireless camera and not support the other camera angles only as picture-in-picture. I also wish cameras had built-in multiple wireless microphone support, be it bluetooth or some better long distance RF with cheap lapel microphones that should be available and audio-volumes easily adjustable in real-time in the camera.

[@JodyBruchon]

The a6300 and Sony sensors in general have bad highlight rolloff and aggressive noise reduction. The G7 produces objectively higher quality video and is cheaper with a stabilized lens included. There is no contest.

[@nerdMike]

Hi, i was looking for a camera to record video, i found panasonic vx870 or x920, but these are really different from each other.. I've also found fz1000 panasonic but it's really big and zoom isn't smooth with video. Finally i found also G7, which seems to be good, but there are video time limitation.. I record sometimes video on racetrack, and also i record live music in small club with external mic; not necessary 4k but at least 1080p @50/60, thanks

[@rvst1]

What about the new Panasonic GX80? I don't know if I should buy the G7 or GX80

[@CR7MEXICO25]

depends, with the gx80 you are sacrificing the articulating screen and the microphone input, but you are gaining in body image stablization

[@el3xtrosky]

Hi, how about overheating? This bugs me the most tho, was thinking about getting the a6300 but it seems to be plagued with overheating issues.

I have both cameras, it is the last day I can return the a6300. Watching this video for the 5th time..... lol.

[@abundance1219]

Which camera did you keep? I currently have the G7 and I'm debating returning it for the a6300. I'm not impressed with it's limited frame rates for slow motion and I'm not sold on the stills

[@deancrockett4893]

Hey man what'd you end up doing?

[@abundance1219]

***** I just kept the G7 and purchased a prime 25mm / 1.7 lens for beautiful stills and low light. Are you debating between the two?

[@TechLineHD]

I also kept the G7 and do not regret in general. Well, I miss a wonderful low-light at higher ISO performance of the Sony. Also, the still image quality could be better with the kit 14-140 lens. Anyway, I mainly use it for 4k video and the quality of it is top-notch

[@abundance1219]

The 4K is gorgeous for such a small camera

[@KartikJayaraman79]

Great comparison. You should have mentioned that the A6300 does 4K 30p in crop mode - this is a major drawback for the A6300. Even most cellphone cameras can do 4K 30p without cropping the FOV.

Love all your videos....congrats 200K subs. You deserve a lot more for putting out great well thought out videos.

What he forgot to mention is the fact that the Sony A6300 has major overheating issues when being used for video work. He can't deny it as its all over the web and its a known fact. Do you know why he doesn't mention it? its because he has affiliate links in the description that will make him money if you buy through that, so he's going to keep that sort of thing away from this video.

can u pl tell me about the adopter to use canon ef mount lenes on g7 ?

[@mmsmith3341]

ok I have used both camera. I own the g7. If your on a budget go with the g7 for sure, In terms of which is better they are pretty much the same its just about the features rather than quality. Reason for the for g7: * it has a fully articulating screen * it does not overheat * much better rolling shutter (not great but much better than the a6300) * lenses are cheaper for micro four thirds systems * with good lenses Its better for photography (In My Opinion) * lighter and easier to carry around and use * both cameras are good at low light up 6400 iso Auto focus is not as bad as people say but it depends what you shoot and if you need it. (for me its pretty much ok)

[@jeffoberg685]

2 awesome cameras for sure, i dont think you would be left wanting much if you chose either, for me the way to go is buy the G7 leaving more budget for good lenses and if i have a situation or a scene requiring better low light performance i would rent a sony a7 series for a day if needed to complete the shoot

Keep in mind the G7 has a HDR mode and a variable Highlight/Shadow S-curve dial, so to say that the G7 is inferior regarding the handling of highlights isn't really true, IMO.

Tengo la Sony a6300. Estuve comparando las dos cámaras una semana antes de comprarla. El autofocus en la g7 es algo flojo. En la Sony es increíblemente rápido y preciso. El 4k en la g7 no es malo pero la Sony graba en 6k y lo escala a 4k. El tema del calentamiento que tanto mencionan en la Sony se arregló con la última actualización. Ahora dura el doblé de tiempo sin que se apague sola por sobre calentamiento. El Viewfinder en la Sony se puede usar en 120p y créanme que se ve mucho mejor que en la g7. Mi consejo es que si buscan una cámara para viajes, ser Blogger o algo que no requiera algo tan Profesional la g7 es para ti. Si por otro lado buscan crear contenido multimedia para producción, filmación en eventos grandes, cortometrajes o documentales con alta calidad y detalle vayan por la Sony. //////////////////////////////////////////////////// I have the Sony a6300. I was comparing the two cameras a week before buying it. The autofocus on g7 is somewhat loose. On the Sony it is incredibly fast and precise. The 4k on the g7 is not bad but the Sony records at 6k and scales at 4k. The issue of warming that both mentioned in the Sony was fixed with the latest update. Now it lasts twice as long as it does not go out alone due to overheating. The Viewfinder on the Sony can be used at 120p and believe me it looks much better than on the g7. My advice is that if you are looking for a camera for travel, be a Blogger or something that does not require something so Professional the g7 is for you. If on the other hand they seek to create multimedia content for production, filming in large events, short films or documentaries with high quality and detail go by the Sony.

[@wesleyjordan8349]

+Jorge Martinez You're only speaking as a bargain basement shopper, rather than understanding that people have specific shooting needs. Who cares that you can buy 2 of something for the price of 1 of something else. That's a silly argument. Cheap price doesn't and shouldn't be considered if a camera doesn't satisfy the consumer. I don't like the slow focusing on the G7. That automatically rules it out. And for a micro 4/3 camera it's strange that it's so much bigger than most APS-C cams.

[@jorgem50]

+Wesley Jordan lol, I own my own videography and photography business and as far as video, I've been working with budget cameras since 2011. Call me a bargain basement shopper, but at the end of the day my cheap g7 allows me to get more clients for their weddings and quinceañeras. The g7 can do the same as the a6300 at a fraction of the cost. If you run your own business and you feel a 5dm3 or a7s or whatever full frame cameras fills your needs, then more power too you. just don't underestimate the power of the g7 and the operator!!!

[@patrickb4750]

So... the sony produces great 4k, but overheats and s-log3 is worthless because it outputs at 8bit, making grading difficult. HD is really disappointing, so you're reliant on downsampling from 4k... the problem is that 4k doesn't allow for slow-mo, so all the fps/time-lapse functionality goes out the window... and then there's the rolling shutter. Ergonomics have always been problematic and there's no touchscreen, which would solve a whole host of those issues... Sony have crammed a boat-load of tech into this camera but it appears that many of it's selling points are hamstrung in one way or another....

With Canon you also pay the brand. Like 80%. The 80D actually worths 200, 300$ top. With a good lens you will get nice photos with the G7 as well. As for video, G7 wins, hands down.

Would you recommend the G7 over the canon 70d as far as shooting videos go?

[@PeppePascale_]

60fps is enough, who cares about filming in slowmotion everytime? if i need more fps i use premiere pro last features or twixtor. the only bad fact of g7 is autofocus. when i use it on zhiyun crane in low light some times go crazy..

[@ridingwestcoast]

what is the lens you used for this video, the kit lens 14-42?

[@Vikingdescendent]

Great vid. Thx. If the best of both cameras would be incorporated into one, especially the controls of the G7, that would work for me. I work with the Sony Nex 7 and the Sony a6000. Both get the job done, but I hope Sony is watching, you make so many good points.

[@Arestas25]

Hello MW Technology. Great review. The sharpness of the Sony A6300 is amazing...By your experience will the Fujifilm X-T20 be a good 4k camera alternative to these 2 (Sony and Panasonic)?. I just can't decide because the 4K videos I saw on youtube using the Fuji X-T20 seem so bad, I don't know but it seems they lack sharpness and vivid colors...

[@beankssiduous]

What are the extension files that they produce?

[@SoundSpeeding]

The Panasonic G7 doesn't overheat. Slamdunk winner.

[@shota1680]

Sound Speed! I want to buy g7 on 2019, is that worth?

[@DennisMeetsWorld]

@@shota1680 Yes, but it lacks in-body stabilization, weather sealing/sturdier body, and the ability to record longer than 30 mins at a time - there's a time limitation on the G7). I would opt for the Panasonic Lumix G85 if you want these features (and can afford the extra couple hundred dollars cost when compared to the G7). If not, then the G7 is an excellent budget camera. Totally still worth it in 2019. I have a G85, btw.

[@shota1680]

@@DennisMeetsWorld Thx for ur advice! i really want to buy the same camera as yours, but i had not enough budget for buying the G85 , thats why i search a cheaper cameras but with a good quality, Thanks man...!!

[@DennisMeetsWorld]

@@shota1680 Anytime! The G7 is a BEAST of a camera!! Just think of the G85 as a G7 on steroids lol

[@DennisMeetsWorld]

@ant billionz ant billionz Just to be clear: You're talking about a $1,105 Sony camera from 2017 vs. a $497 Panasonic camera from 2015...not really a fair comparison and I'm pretry sure the focus was budget cameras but 👌

[@ScrattleGG]

I've been trying to choose between the gx8, g7 and 6300 over the past days. I just can't figure out which camera is best vs the price. It's so hard to decide.

[@MrGulyo]

G7 obviosly the best price/value camera!

[@ScrattleGG]

Tamás Gulyás You don't think it'll start lacking behind in resolution if I wanna do some portraits and maybe crop?

[@MrGulyo]

For video of course. I use Nikon for photography...

[@ScrattleGG]

Tamás Gulyás Well I know that part I just don't know if it's gonna be worth it scraping together the extra money for a gx8

[@braintumoraunty]

can you tell me which one I can use my Lavalier Microphone with if possible?

[@Porketz]

The overheating problem of the 6300 it's on all the resolutions or only when filming in 4k?

[@origAlrightAbhishek]

Sir choose one panasonic fz300 or fz80.. for videos and why?

[@raven2004]

I've owned both cameras. The a6300 auto focus blows away the G7. If you're primary using the camera for stills the a6300 is the way to go. I had auto focus issues with the g7 capturing fast moving images.

[@diceflawless9115]

Dont u mean vise versa? G7 would be better for still since the auto focus is so slow

[@jeffmurnahan]

Panasonic G7 has better colors than the Sony in my opinion. Really the G7 is the best budget camera. If only there would be a firmware update that fixes the autofocus problem like there was with the GH5

[@MrGulyo]

I got G7 and love it and never regretted. PRICING ???? Sony is on double price !!!!!

[@jorgem50]

+Tamás Gulyás Also keep in mind the price of native sony lenses is very high. Not so much with panasonic!

[@JetSmackedHD]

Used prices. No With the popular 18-35 for both and the adapters needed, G7 cost more. Im talking about used prices

[@Tech1Tv]

Sony Alpha A6300 get so hot and turn off after 20 minutes in 4K. That's why some people don't like it but that camera is a beast.

[@lucag.2551]

@LSUisKING Exactly. The A6300 is 140% more expensive and with how close the g7 compares, its clearly the better budget option. PLus it offers some benefits over the s6300

[@JetSmackedHD]

Luca G. Depends on what lenses you want to get. 18-35 sigma and adapters for both, g7 is more expensive.

[@vo8305]

can you link the focal reducer for the g7

[@effortmaxgym7853]

I have the g7 if i buy a zhongyi lens turbo do I need to then use a nikon lense with it to get the wider field of view?

[@renjitsuneharu9243]

Man..it really help me a lot if you have another review about the turbo lens especially with its autofocusing and sharpness on canon and nikon lenses

[@AlienFrequency]

I was about to pull the trigger on the a6300, but for $400 less, the G7 looks badass. The only thing I personally would be missing is slomo, but hell, I could buy a Go Pro for those purposes with the money I save!

[@gotDesign]

The G7 is a M4/3 while the A6300 its a APS-C sensor... this just make it unsuited for comparison... period

[@andrew1925]

Max 500$ vs 1000$+ period.

[@Duckstalker1340]

Can’t agree more. Different format different price range altogether.

[@BorMachine]

very good comparison video. please more of it :)

[@greysuit17]

Does that adapter fit well on the Sony a6300? Or is it loose? And I have a Jupiter 3 that is an M- mount. They make an M42 mount to Sony version would that work?

[@mikemcglasson1286]

If the G7 had the GH4's 96 fps, it'd be perfect.

[@captainru_media]

2020, would anyone still suggest the G7?

[@sempei58]

whats the battery life on these cameras? Also these cameras that do 4k i have to assume to get the best video you need a good card. How expensive are the cards. I only came across this video by chance, not really looking at a 4K camera but for one that takes great pics and HD video with time lapse function, preferably under $1000. Any suggestions please?

[@Pena420station]

with de commlite i get the full frame result?

[@FunWithTheBugs]

Thanks, great video.

[@tobybarnhill7693]

Hi, would you recommend the g7 for shooting action sports, such as mountain biking in the Bush, in low light and spots of Sun? thanks!

[@ryanross7785]

Absolutely. It also does amazing in lowlight.

[@tobybarnhill7693]

+Ryan Ross I hear such mixed views haha. others have been saying it's bad in low light and terrible with having to focus on a fast moving object in video. but I'll take you word for it, thanks!

[@ryanross7785]

Toby Barnhill I'm just telling my personal experience. I took it out one night and it looked pretty cinematic. Fast moving objects, like sports, should be fine. Cars and really fast moving bikes look a little unfocused.

[@pckuching3374]

get yourself a DJI OSMO for sport.

[@tobybarnhill7693]

+PC KUCHING looked at the osmo, really cool but just doesnt feature what I want. The G7 offers for cinematic options, as well as being able to capture nice stills. Might have to compare the two a little more though. Thanks!

[@MarcSelwan]

I went from Sony cameras to Panasonic cameras for video because of the lens selection and price. the 6300 is an awesome camera but not having an articulating touch screen makes it a tough choice for 'on the go' style shooting. There's also a deal on G7 right now where you get the G7, a 25mm fixed + 14-140mm lens for the price of the 6300. Good Sony lenses are just too pricey.

[@Geekception]

Awesome comparison Waj! Nice channel too :)

[@ravinair6782]

Hi.. Based on some youtube review on panasonic G7, am very pleased with it and planning to buy, request you to give your opinion on the same, my usage predominantly 60% video and rest images. And if you are also recommending G7, should i go with the kit lens 14-42 or 14-140 (video recording should be sharp), please guide...Thanks

[@COFAKE-]

What about 1080P video? Which one is sharpper? Thanks

[@jacquelinesantamariavasque3637]

What about for Photography?
