Video

Great vid, particularly found the cropping / alt lense equivalent info super helpful. Oh, but the VI is the successor to the V, not the predecessor 😉

I really think it would be pretty disappointing if all cameras with the Expeed 7 processor (Z9, Z8 and Zf) don’t get the imaging cloud or Flexible colour update in a future firmware update…

The real world medium format is the best image on screen or grading color.

Why is there no flange back adjustment on the FX9? Thanks

Film is passe, eh. I used to use Kodachrome and Fujichrome. I have a few rolls of frozen slide film, from centuries ago. Film is expensive, polluting, limited, nonsense fad, blah blah. Tin foil hat.

Interesting. Thanks. toronto. Dust on the sensor would worry me, on any fixed lens camera. I use Panasonic m43 gear. My version of the Fuji x100 is Panasonic GM1 with the Pan 14mm f2.5.

YOU EITHER GET IN THERE OR YOU'RE NOT GONNA GET THE SHOT! WELL SAID!!! LOVE THE FRAMES! 💯🤘🏾🤘🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Does it work with Zhiyun Crane 1? If not, what's compatible with it?

Thank U for video. That's close enough.

A truly existing camera. Great short.

I am so pleased that Nikon did not make any major changs - 24mp is enough for most photographers, and no major changes to the under interface. I think its going to sell very well. I love the new flippy screen, its much more versatile than the old tilt screen.

Everything on that left side dial might as well be in the menu system. Who of the testers was ok with this? Certainly no one hand holding a tele and wanting to change from U1 to U2 quickly.

What ever happened to the NPS events that Chris hosted on Zoom. Those were great.

The cloud features sound great. Automatic updates. Uploading projects. Wow.

Nice review an fair.....

No, it won't take the art of our cultural experience, but make it harder for some to get paid for it, when you hear "it's just a click with PS AI " - like getting paid for image edits. Everything is termed AI right now, but when the dust settles we'll hopefully get useful tools for creatives to enhance workflows.

Along comes the Pentax 17 that proves there is fun in film photography (and style in carrying one). It's maybe too simplistic for some, but again, there's appeal in that.

Very underrated videos

You mispronounced rhetoric.

Throughout the industrial revolution of the past 250+ years, any new technology has never lead to less work, it has only displaced work and usually for the better overall. I see AI as no different, from a printing press, a steam engine or a loom in our history. Will AI affect individuals who do more repetitive creative work? I am sure it will, in the same way we don't let monks copy book manuscripts, don't let horses drive our pumps and factories and don't hand-weave our fabrics anymore. But will it create new efficiencies that also create opportunities for creative people? I am sure it will too. It will affect those unable or unwilling to adapt, and to learn new skills, but will create opportunity to almost the same degree for others. And we do value the human touch and genuine skill. Has the drum computer replaced the drummer? To some extend, but to some extend certainly not.

Great review I like the in field reviews. You shoot like I do. Down and dirty.

I see what you're saying about the help of AI and, in some cases, the loss of opportunities due to technology. I agree with this sentiment. I would also add that humans have inherited value, regardless if they create art or not because we’re made in the image of the ultimate Creator.

You got to be the brother of some actor... I just can't come up with his name... or any movie he's been in. This drives me crazy.

To be fair in regards to RS: the FX3 has the ONE Sony sensor that doesn't suck in that regard (except for the new GS one, which is not video centric).. The FX3 does this by sacrificing resolution, the A9III by sacrificing DR. The GH7 should rather be compared with recent FFs around 24MP for RS. As somebody who had a GH6 until recently and now has an S5II... the RS is definitely much better than on the FF Panasonics. Which show's especially when it comes to burst mode photo.

I concur on the hoped-for upgrade to the EVA1!!!

1# goto Store thanks for everything you do.

Great review.

Its not 7th time though, more like 9ish if Im correct. GH1 GH2 GH3 GH4 GH5 GH5S GH5 II GH6 GH7

in the first upload of your video you mentioned the SDI output via flash sync socket. This would be such an awesome feature! Is this a feature they save for later or why you have to cut it out?

YOU ARE A HERO. Thank you thank you thank you. Storytelling is top notch.

Even perfectly balanced camera will tilt over when you tilt up or down, because the center of mass is above the axis of rotation (which is inside the head). The reason cameras stay in place is because of the counter balance system, head tugs in the opposite direction to compensate.

This vs the xh2S

Woah, what happend to your colour and highlights at 0:32?! That was weird and looked like suddenly the camera went from 5600K to 3200K and simultaneously over exposed by 3 stops.

Thanks for doing this. I have a GH6, a GH5 Mk2, and two GH5s. I have put the GH7 on my wish list. I have owned the GH3, the GH4 and the AF100.

From all these videos I'm seeing i will get a pre own a7iii. Looking to learn and get into street photography.

Good lighting and skill trump sensor size and camera brands. Panasonic, please release an LX100 III with PDAF and a manual zoom.

“Huge leap”? It’s what the GH6 should have e been.

This was a great video and interview. Well done! I have my first GFX coming in a few weeks with the 100S II and I’m so stoked.

The image does looks real nice. Going back to micro four thirds from full frame is like going back to an x girlfriend. Seems like fun but the are always headaches.

That 32bit float recording is a gem for single ops/low-buget shoots!

Love this new GH7. I wish I was a new filmmaker to get one but I've seen upgraded to EVA-1 and S5 and use them for a huge variety of productions not sure I want to go backwards in sensor size. But that 32-bit float and pro-res raw internal is so tempting !!

Damn! I'm saving this video to reference again and again. Truly appreciate the effort you put into this! Killer!

Dang u had me until u did the comparison to size when compared to a fujifilm apsc. The cameras and lens sizes are roughly the same depending on what lens and camera you are referring to. Other than that great coverage of this camera. Also, adding a speed booster would satisfy everyone looking for full frame

Great video Thank you for the information ❤

Rolling shutter effect, aliasing and moire patterns are shocking to me. But I am still satisfied.

I have the G9II. I will probably not use Pro Res Raw. But if Lumix will offer the $500 extra trade in like they did on the G9II I might get the GH7

This Camera has become a baby Alexa with the Pro Res raw and Arri Log c integration.

The point about 16mm is a good one. I often find myself rolling my eyes at people who complain about crop factors, because they're the same people who would also say they love the look of films shot on 16mm.

The Nikon Z8 and Z9 shoot ProRes Raw internally as well!

No UFO detection mode? Pass.
