Panasonic Lumix G7 DMC-G7HK Black
With a 16MP Live MOS sensor and Venus Engine 9, it captures 4K video at 30fps alongside 40fps electronic bursts, driven by a 49-point DFD autofocus system in a light 265g body. The 2.36M-dot OLED EVF and fully articulating 3-inch touchscreen provide versatile composition, while built-in Wi-Fi simplifies remote control and sharing. This mirrorless suits vloggers and streamers prioritizing 4K capture and fast shooting, but its photography score of 21.7/100 severely limits still-image use.
