jagnje Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 since the g6 was so well received around here, this looks like the 4k version of it. I hope the higher resolution cures the moire/aliasing of g6.http://thenewcamera.com/panasonic-g7-full-specification-leaked/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronFilm Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 If this is a GH4 but smaller, without weather sealing, and way cheaper than I'll be very happy :-DBut I fear they'll cripple it in the same way they did with the G6: not PAL/NTSC switchable, no live HDMI, and no headphone jack.

Julian Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 The G6 was €599. Bit harsh to call it crippled because it didn't have a headphone jack. At least it does have a microphone jack. It was a steal at the time. Awesome 1080p quality for the money.I hope they keep the introduction price the same, the G7 will be probably the first usable budget 4K camera. No extreme crop like the NX500 or silly 15 fps like the Nikon 1 J5.I'd expect UHD (no Cinema 4K), I hope it does 24/25/30 fps even if it's not PAL/NTSC switchable.Of course there are going to be differences with the GH4. If it's cheap like the G6 I wouldn't expect a headphone jack.I hope the G7 introduction also means the GH4 will get V-LOG soon... Panasonic needs to keep the GH4 tempting for people who only care about the 4K and might otherwise just go with the G7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ebrahim Saadawi Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 It looks like an a7s & Gh4 hookup and made this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Hughes Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 I hate the fact that I want this camera because it looks pretty. Still, it looks like it'll be a great option beyond pure aesthetics. Can't wait to see what's in store for the GX8! Cinegain 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inazuma Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Mmmh I do love straight lines!Also the 2.36 mil dot Organic EL EVF could be similar to what's used in the Fuji x30, which has a highly praised viewfinder! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinegain Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Yeah, it kinda looks like a mashup!Not too shabby though!And yes! I agree. Looking forward to the GX8! Hopefully it's going to be everything the E-M5II was supposed to be... Fatalfury 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterwhite Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I have a question here, what is 4K video for besides it is better video quality? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inazuma Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I have a question here, what is 4K video for besides it is better video quality?If producing for 1080p you can 'zoom' or cut in and out of the 4k image Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utsira Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I was thinking that the textured finish (of the top plate) looked more like the A7mkII. I'm very excited about this. The G6 has a fantastic 1080p image, only let down by noise.It has lost the zoom rocker that the G6 had on the top plate (which also doubled as a second "dial"). Clearly at the back right of the top panel there's a bigger, proper dial (with a button in the middle?) But I wonder whether that ridged ring around the shutter button at the front is a second dial? I think I'd prefer 2 dials to dial + rocker.No view of the side ports yet. The G6 had its mic input on the front of the camera, which has clearly gone from the G7. Hopefully the input has just moved round to the side, rather than gone altogether. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluefonia Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Looks like a new Panasonic G7 is real, - according to this: http://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/12408/panasonic-g7-topic-4k-monster-or-gh4-for-poor/p2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagnje Posted May 17, 2015 Author Share Posted May 17, 2015 it must have a mic in as well, as they`re recomending the dmw-ms2 with it. a nice price and it`t finally what the nx500 was supposed/should to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Members Mattias Burling Posted May 17, 2015 Super Members Share Posted May 17, 2015 The best thing for us in Sweden is that the G6 dropped to $250-300 within a year and so will this. Might get one then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronFilm Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Launch price will be US$799 (including kit lens). So a slightly higher price than the G6 was released at of US$749 http://www.43rumors.com/ft5-panasonic-g7-to-be-announced-at-1300-london-time-costs-799-with-kit-lens/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mercer Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 It sounds like the G7 and the FZ1000 could be a great low budget A and B camera set up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
