The Panasonic G7 is the consumer hybrid camera of the year at Dpreview.

Share

DP_G7

Dpreview just posted the list of winners of their PIX 2015 awards. And the Panasonic G7 won in the consumer hybrid camera category. DP writes:

The G7 disguises itself as just another entry/mid-level ILC but, more so than almost any of its rivals, it’s as much a video camera as it is a stills camera. Above and beyond the specifications, it’s the well-implemented touchscreen interface and relatively high bitrate video capture that make the G7 such a nice camera to shoot video with. The Micro Four Thirds lens mount means that the G7 can be used with a wide variety of lenses, including cine lenses via adaptor, or provide excellent image quality with the system’s own lenses.

(FT4) Still 2-3 years to go for the Panasonic/Fuji organic sensor.

Share

I have been told by a Panasonic source that we will still have to wait 2-3 years before the organic sensor developed by Panasonic and Fuji will make his way into a real mass production camera. At least for 2016 don’t expect anything fancy new on Panasonic sensors (no organic no foveon or so). The GH5 will have a classic Bayer sensor and bring certainly have major improvements in terms of image quality

Reminder: Fuji-Panasonic announcement (article here on 43rumors).
