Panasonic Lumix DMC-G7 Compact System Camera with 14-42mm OIS Lens scored an incredible 8.8/10 for quality.
As you’d expect with a lot of products, quality is a very important factor for choosing products in the “Cameras” category. But it’s even more important to consider and get a feel for quality when you’re buying online because you aren’t given the benefit of being able to see and try the item for yourself.
This is of course why we can’t stress enough the importance of reading lots of reviews, as it will really help you to get a good feel for how good the quality is. A top tip when reading the reviews is to use the search function on your browser and search for the word “quality” in the reviews that way you can skip straight to customers that have mentioned about the quality of Panasonic Lumix DMC-G7 Compact System Camera with 14-42mm OIS Lens.
Once you’ve had a good look over the reviews you’ll have a pretty good indication of how good the quality of Panasonic Lumix DMC-G7 Compact System Camera with 14-42mm OIS Lens is, but we also have the following factors that you should consider to get an idea of the quality of the product you’re looking at.
- Price: It probably sounds obvious, but there are links to the price you pay and the quality of a product. Try and set your expectations for the quality based on your budget. You wouldn’t expect a Rolls-Royce for the price of a Fiesta so bear this in mind when shopping.
- Specification: It’s a really good idea to look over the product description and specification section of the website, for Panasonic Lumix DMC-G7 Compact System Camera with 14-42mm OIS Lens you can read the full details on the John Lewis & Partners website where it will give you all the detail you need. It’s useful as you’ll probably already have a good idea of the sort of specs that make good Cameras. Also compare these specs to other similar products that are in the same price bracket.
- Brand: Panasonic are obviously a strong and recognisable brand for making great Cameras, so you’d expect Panasonic Lumix DMC-G7 Compact System Camera with 14-42mm OIS Lens to deliver to these expectations. But always consider the brand when you’re thinking about the quality of the product you’re going to buy, and where quality is an important factor to you, look only at those well known brands (of course only if your budget allows).
- Your experience with Cameras: You’ll no doubt have some history with buying Cameras, and you may have even bought products from the same brand, Panasonic, use this information to your advantage. You’ll probably have a good idea of how good the quality of the product was and any faults or floors you remember from it.

- Description: The Panasonic DMC-G7 is a compact system camera which opens up the world of 4K. From shooting memorable frames to capturing amazing stills from your 4K footage, the G7 showcases impressive details for all to enjoy. This mirrorless camera comes with a 14-42mm Lens which is the perfect size for capturing both wide angle landscapes and close up portraits. A ‘silent design’ makes ensures that any video recording won’t be disturbed by noisy focusing, while image stabilisation also helps to make every image razor-sharp. 4K stills and frames The resolution of 4K delivers four times the quality of a high-definition picture which achieves a much higher level of detail. Even if you view the 4K footage on a Full HD TV, the files will still display clear, sharp images. Not only can you record in stunning, cinematic detail but you can also go back through your footage to select high quality 8 megapixel stills from your clips. Using the new 4K Photo function, you can capture those instant moments which only occur when you are already filming. And with three different modes – 4K BURST, 4K BURST (START & STOP) and 4K PRE-BURST – you’ll always be able to capture that perfect moment with friends and family. Quick to focus With Panasonic’s Depth From Defocus (DFD) Auto Focus (AF) technology, you’ll be able to capture even the fastest moving action. This great new tech instantly calculates the distance between the items inside the frame and drives the focus of the lens in one continuous movement. Creating AF speeds up to 0.07 seconds and burst shooting speed with AFC of 6 frames per second (fps), the new system can even increase the stability of continuous focusing when shooting. AF Tracking is also possible which recognises the colour, size and motion of the subject. And with Low Light AF, you’ll be able to focus on subjects in low light situations with Starlight AF capturing stars in the night sky. OLED viewfinder and tilt display Complete with a high-resolution OLED Live View Finder, you’ll be able to see all your settings displayed – even under direct sunlight conditions. And a tilt/swivel touch-display will give you the creative freedom to capture unusual perspectives whilst maintaining full control. Wireless creativity With the Panasonic Image App, you’ll be able to control the DMC-G7 on your Smartphone or tablet device which will allow you to; view the image, set the focus, release the shutter, review photographs on the larger screen of your device or even share images on social networks. This is all made possible with built-in Wi-Fi. And with Geotagging, the compact system camera will always know exactly where it is by using the GPS log/tag of your Smartphone or tablet. Lenses & Cases One of the biggest advantages of this camera is the sheer shooting flexibility on offer. You can use additional lenses to take wide-angle, telephoto, or close-up shots to suit just about any situation. The shorter the focal length (measured in mm), the wider the view will be – the longer the focal length, the more telescopic the picture. With a selection of interchangeable lenses at your disposal, the creative possibilities are endless. Click here to browse our selection. Take care of your new camera with one of our cases.
