Panasonic Lumix GH7 + Panasonic Leica 12-60mm F2.8-4 OIS kit

This kit includes the Panasonic Leica DG Vario-Elmarit 12-60mm f/2.8-4 OIS lens.

Yes, indeed! M43 is in full swing in video use. The series of cameras that really started with the Panasonic GH2 camera has been continued in 2024. The basis for this is the advances in the sensor of the G9 Mark II model, especially in the field of autofocus. The Panasonic GH7 is a name that many professionals and those who are serious about video recognize.

Now Proress Raw recording can be done directly to a memory card and for the first time in the world, 32bit Float audio recording is supported, meaning monitoring and recording sound levels is history as the entire dynamic range can be recorded on the audio track. This requires a separately purchased XLR2 add-on, but it also gives you XLR connectors.

Like the Panasonic G9 II, the GH series now features the manufacturer's most advanced phase-detection autofocus. Like other manufacturers' top models, the autofocus uses subject detection, meaning it automatically focuses on pets, birds, and now also vehicles and airplanes. The speed of tracking people is also better.

Image stabilization has always been top-notch on the market, and now, in addition to the 7.5-stop image stabilization, there is EIS High mode, which is an effective additional digital stabilization, meaning that the gimbal can be omitted completely for many purposes.

The Panasonic GH7 borrows the Real time lut feature from the new S9 camera, meaning it's really easy to load and use LUT files (and you can even layer two of them with different transparency). The Panasonic Lumix Lab software for smart devices is also compatible with the GH7, so combined with Open Gate video and a refined workflow, this camera can also easily produce production-grade video for quick distribution.

Video recording features such as focus and exposure aids are production-level. The camera also has a fan, or active cooling, to ensure reliable operation and the longest possible recording time with different codecs. Despite the fan, the camera is, as usual, a professional device that is dust and weather-protected.
