The Panasonic GH7 Has ALMOST No Compromises!

[@PetaPixel]

Surprise! Panasonic revealed, last minute, that it will offer a license for ARRI LogC3, enabling the GH7 to color-match with ARRI cameras. This upgrade, while not beneficial for all GH7 users, will make the GH7 exceptionally useful on high-end productions. Read more here: petapixel.com/2024/06/05/the-lumix-gh7-puts-all-of-panasonics-best-video-features-into-one-camera/ Expect to hear Jordan talk about this more in the future.

[@williamburkholder769]

FINALLY, they did what we all wanted. No, Jordan, you're not crazy for recommending m43 and the GH7. There are very compelling reasons to buy each format, depending upon what you photograph most often. The GH7 is simply a pinnacle for Lumix right now. Inevitably, that will change and a new L-Mount body will add something new to the mix. But both formats are valid. If I were working commercially, I could see needs for both m43 and FF. I will now decide whether I need high end video features and go with the GH7, or "reasonable" video features and get the G9 Mark II, as my son did. A lot will depend on when it is released.

[@andrewjones-productions]

I enjoyed Jordan's 'Gone With The Wind' moment and half-expected him to turn into Scarlet O'Hara as he twirled. What allowed me to enjoy the moment was the very nice image produced by the camera. The Panasonic GH7 seems to be a very capable camera and I really liked the app with LUTs and most importantly, LUT sharing capabilities. This will be an easy way to quickly find LUTs and I applaud Panasonic's creation of a central location for this. Other manufacturers should take note. This is an excellent use of an app in my opinion.

[@SlotCarNewsOfficial]

Please can we get Jordan to do a video about the benefits of each format for video for the lower end of usage please. I feel like many people do video who aren't needing the highest end features but still want good quality video who need to know if there are benefits of FF vs. APSC vs. M43 for run and gun type of usage. I don't do much grading for my work for my newspaper (full time photo and video for news) and for my YT channel (direct to camera-product showcase videos). So my need to do high end grading isn't there but if there's a significant benefit to something beyond what I'm currently doing I'd like to know.

I doubt we’re getting an S2, i suspect the S5ii has taken the place of that camera. Which is a shame as the S1 is a great body. I think the next 2 cameras to come from lumix will be the S1Rii and S1Hii, likely the S1Rii based off the sensor made for the Leica SL3 but no basic S2 body

@@jockturner1547 The S5ii while capable for professional applications is priced and for the most part specced for Enthusiast application, there will definitely be a S1ii or S2, Panasonic needs a fast S camera for video and sports/wildlife and a high resolution body and not having a base version would just bei weird... doesn't really cost anything you just slap the S5ii (or a higher res) sensor in a slightly bigger body and call it a day

Nice, now the GX10 Panasonic

[@StrangelyIronic]

Good luck, the fact they opted to go with a full frame sensor package for the S9 instead of just making a GX10 or G100.ii/G110 or whatever with a MFT package for an entry level/"influencer" focused camera shows that they've probably called it quits on anything under pro-level bodies for MFT. The G9.ii was a market test to see if hardware they're already R&D'ing for the GH7 would still sell as a photography focused camera in a market where every camera maker is pushing the line of "full frame or go home" or something similar and most "influencers" blindly say full frame or your images are trash. The G9.ii didn't exactly make a massive splash for photography, so it may very well be the last photography focused MFT camera (OM-Sushi is just bleeding the remains of Olympus for whatever money they can get, there's little to no investing in actual R&D/future technology that isn't minor modifications to update hardware like the OM-1.ii was).

@@LakeHowellDigitalVideo lol, have you not heard about AI? My smartphone let's me shoot video in low light, and that's a teeny tiny sensor.

[@ElementaryWatson-123]

No it doesn't. It's basic physics. The standard range equivalent lenses are roughly the same size whether it's m43 or FF. Smaller sensor reduces the size of extreme telephoto lenses, but you're sacrificing the resolution, and also complexity and price. Larger sensor is always better for wide angle, because it doesn't require retrofocal design. And of course, it's physically impossible to make lenses faster than f/0.7, which is equivalent to just f/1.4 on FF. So you are doomed in low light with a small sensor.

[@chrisgregory5101]

[@CanditoTrainingHQ]

I think the biggest weakness of mft is that it hasn't settled into an identity for lenses. In my opinion its torn between two worlds. There's the small lens + low F stop camp with little nift F1.4 or even F1.0 lenses. Most people play with those, end up wanting full frame, and leave. We've seen that pipeline with just about every Gh5 KZbinr. But then there's the true potential of longer focal length lenses which hasn't been explored enough, beyond a few very expensive pro zooms. I'd love to see MFT really settle into being dominant for FF equivalent 100-200m F2.8 lenses (50-100mm F1.4 in MFT). For example the Sigma 56mm F1.4 is a great lens for mft to basically get a 112mm F2.8 full frame look. But that lens is made for APSC originally and now its getting quite old. I'd love to see just how small a lens like that could be if it was truly built for mft, and would love to see 60-100mm pursued at F1.4. The key point is full frame is reaching a dead end point where F1.2 lenses at 50mm or shorter really don't look all that interesting. The bokeh is smooth, but you see that look once and you've seen it all. Ultimately I'd argue the average person would view 100mm F2.8 as more professional than 50mm F1.4. THAT is something mft marketing has never milked. Don't just offer conversions based on size or light, actually attack the audience with why a longer focal length look is cool and create the desire in the first place. That is how it can win.

[@colininglis8918]

Sorry a f2.8 lens is an f2.8 lens, on m43 an f2.8 lens has twice the depth of field than on full frame but is still an f2.8 lens.

[@DynamixWarePro]

As a long time Olympus (OM System) user who shoots a lot of video on an OM1 and OMD 1 III and balked at the OM1 MKII, this is a very interesting camera. I have acquired a lot of Olympus lenses over the years and this could be my next body. I really like the two pronged reviews you guys do.

@ericaceous1652 I see. If you decide to go tele wildlife for video, you might like the 200 2.8 on a Lumix. They're usually in great condition used $1100-1600 and have an aperture ring that works on Lumix bodies. The Olympus 40-150 2.8 is a great wildlife zoom, too. Both are a beautiful stills lenses. But I'd understand if you're waiting on the Z6III if they offer the video features from the Z8.

[@guinhill]

I saw a vid claiming that it doesn't matter if you film mft or full frame. due to slowing down your aperture on full frame to get enough depth to keep your subject in focus, mft gets the advantage of having less boke , allowing you to shoot with bigger apertures, sill having the whole subject in focus, but you can keep your ISO lower since you are gathering more light.

[@gcprost]

I shoot live theatre, concerts and dance shows with multiple cameras. The M4/3 is a better choice for me as everybody is in focus. I have two GH5s, one GH5 Mk2, and one GH6. I’ll be adding the GH7 to my wish list. Thanks for doing this.

[@chandanprakash2002]

On why I should use GH7 over S5 is that camera weight is it's body and lenses. Lenses are so light on M43 compared to those on full frame. I have stopped using my S5 on my travel for the same reason. I carry my G9. Heavy body but light lenses.

[@skyiswomb1]

[@mostlyfinnishlifeeventsand5112]

Hope 32-bit support of the DMW-XLR2 is also backported to the S5 II / S5 II X. On my Rode Wireless Pro, it's just great and gives you far more freedom than the audio support on the S5 II (X). The latter requires a LOT of attention and IMHO is a PITA as you also need to keep an eye on the corrent level if don't want the auto-limiter mess up the audio. Now that Model2 supports all four channels (and two of them coming from the new 3.5 jack), it'd be the perfect companion to the Rode Wireless Pro receiver (which also has a 3.5 output) too. Currently, I use a plain 3.5 wire to feed the receiver's output directly to the camera and, of course, it rules out using the other two channels. So I can't record for example the inner mike's audio on the third channel.

[@cameralabs]

Nice video, and yes, I agree, I think it may give some clues on a future flagship full-framer. Also another benefit of M43 over full-frame is 4:3 Open Gate is much taller, making it more flexible for both landscape and portrait crops - I have some examples in my video. PS - Stuck at home filming b-roll, and other degrading things? Is this a soft launch of your Only Fans, Jordan?

The main reason I switched from FF to MFT is the lens size. Lugging around a Sony 200-600 vs the Lumix 100-400 ll is a nice trade-off. Along with the other standard F2.8 zooms. For video, its a no brainer. (for wildlife) The IBIS is also untouchable with these Lumix cameras. Try to handhold at the longest zoom range for more than a minute with a FF at 600 compared to a MFT at 800mm FF equivalent. That's why I have chosen MFT over FF. As a GH6 owner, I love the body as it balances well with the 100-400 and forget about overheating. I have left it recording for over 6 hours using a dummy battery in the south Texas heat with no issues. Just FYI, the GH2 can record for over 12 hours (filming wildlife) with no issues overheating. Just saying. Not sure if the GH7 is compelling enough to upgrade as the AF on the GH6 is not as bad as everyone makes it out to be and the GH6 has more than enough video options than anyone could ask for. If you're serious about video work, you would be using manual focus anyway. BTW, how massive are those internal raw recorded files?

No hating the GH7, wathcing this video and looking at the specs, it's amazing (if we ignore the price). But I remember when Panasonics GH cameras were introducing new never before seen features that really stood out. It's been several generations and how come my old Samsung s10 phone can shoot 960fps. but even the brand new GH7 can't even do half that!? Give me 40x slomo (of 24fps) recording in 720p and I'd be shrieking with happiness, I don't even need full HD for this. Sure, it'd be sort of a gimmick and only be used for certain rare scenarios, but it'd be played with a lot. But that's what I and a lot of my fellow camera enthusiast friends want. Something to play around with. Take a note out of Apples playbook: Make it fun, make it positively vastly different even if it isn't vastly better, and make it fun. And I don't even like Apple, but it's hard to deny their mastery in marketing and branding.

As i gh5 user i want the gh7 of course. I am surprised they did not use thw same body as g9 and s5 do tough

[@WalkingInWisdom]

Is the S5 fanless as is G9?

[@MoonbearDiedHere]

I was hoping the announcement would be for the GH7. So happy that I was right :)

Wow 32bit float on camera. That's gotta be a first right? How does it do it? Does the MP4 file format natively supports it?

[@Trevellian]

Is there a hotshoe extension cable for the XLR 2 audio adapter? Installing it on the hotshoe directly makes it impossible to use a top handle.

Went to a broadcast trade show in London a few weeks ago in the hopes of seeing this. It was a no show and I was disappointed in not being there. This will be a classic model (you forgot to mention the ARRI match) I want/need/must have one.

Please Panasonic now give us a premium L Mount Camera "S1X" with stacked sensor, premium video features and all that magic sauce you've been making lately. (for a premium price.)

GH7: 805g GH6: 823g Some improvement but still too heavy vs the 658g on the G9ii

[@runbymedia3538]

Almost the perfect camera! Was really hoping they would finally offer a pre/cache rec or even loop recording like the GoPro have in their mirrorless lineup. Such a good feature for wildlife/documentary. As soon as a mirrorless comes with that and 32bit float I will switch from my EVA1 instantly!

The GH7 will be in my bag for international documentary work. The smaller zoom lenses is the big appeal to m43 for me compared to my S5ii.
