Thanks for such an informative video. I already have 2x GH6s and was thinking about getting a third one for a 3-camera setup I need, but I think I'll get a GH6 instead and save £1,150 (in the UK), which is almost enough to buy a 4th GH6 as a backup if I needed one (I don't, but it's tempting! Lol). You have a new subscriber. :)
Great, thanks for the sub. I wish you'd post some of your videos. Always interested to see what other creators are doing. Also I experienced that the M43 community is so much more open and friendly compared to other creators. With the GH6 I fell in love with M43. And now I am testing out alternative lenses to get good results without breaking the bank. I am working on 2 videos already.
I bought the gh7 because they have finally fixed the streaking issue in the gh7. Gh6 in sting neon lights would streak big time. Gh7 has fixed it. I can trust it much more in any situation now.
I hear you. It's so sad, because the GH6 could be great. Now it is functioning as my b-roll camera only, because you can't trust it in certain lighting situations. You've made a good choice, congrats
I bought the G9ii instead of the GH6. because of the following points : Dynamic range boost enabled by default and available at 500 isos in VLOG and at 100 isos in REC 709 profiles, no streaking issues (it was really a NO GO for me with the GH6, I love to use lights), phase autofocus, the G9ii is a bit lighter and less bulky
I currently use the GH6 with the Leica 100-400. I am mainly a wildlife photographer in Georgia. My only real complaint about the GH6 is the autofocus for birds in flight. The video capabilities of the GH6 already far surpass my skill set to use them. I want to upgrade for the PDAF and I'm sure it's better but I'm not sure it's $2k better. Maybe after Christmas the GH7 will go on sale. I also decided not to go with a G9II because I've invested in the CFxpress cards and I really love the cooling fans, Georgia gets hot like Florida
Normally the first Black Friday after the release the GH series get's a $500 discount. This is how I got my GH6 in 2022 ua-cam.com/video/afNZVSxSqUM/v-deo.html So be ready on Nov. 29
It is so much better than the GH6. I think because of the new sensor and the new AF even old lenses - that did not work well in low light before - are coming to life and are usable again
@@ParadiseBizz NON è vero. Ho fotografato sia con GH6 che con GH7 una stanza poco illuminata (60 watt) e, in automatico, le foto di GH7 sono MOLTO più rumorose di quelle della GH6
Hey. Good job. I got gh6. AF not bad if you know problem situation. Also ALL my 100mp still shots handheld are super sharp amazing. Your camera may have a problem. Finally the color from gh6 straight out of camera such as skin tones Is best of any Lumix..period. great sensor
I saw some threads on Reddit, that other GH6 user had similar issues with the 100MP image and it it quite expensive to get it fixed. I can live without it, because I am using it as my main camera for my youtube videos and I love it.
I understand your reasoning very well. After the GH7 was released and hearing about its upgrades compared to the GH6, I bought another GH6 (used) in the US for nearly half the price of a new one. The GH6 cameras provide nearly everything I need to deliver professional video production services.
I noticed this, and it came a bit as a surprise-awakening to me. On paper the GH7 sounds amazing, but I don't need most of what it offers. The GH6 is a very good camera
Could you specify the settings and frame width, I see that your edges are cropped. I would like to see how much the new stabilization crops the edges of the frame. And could you shoot some sun with both cameras, for the GH6, take ISO 2000 + ND filter, for the Gh7, also ISO 2000 + ND filter, will there be a difference?
When you commented on the preview, at the time the video was already completed. I will show the crop factor in one of my next videos, now that I have someone who's interested. I would estimate it at a 1.2x crop, maybe a bit less.
Thanks. If I have to be completely honest....sometimes I have the suspicion that the first versions are made badly on purpose to sell the second versions and earn twice. GH7 is a nice camera, but, personally, the sensor is too dense for myself, 20 mega is already too much for an M43... obviously I'm talking about my tastes.
In low light the GH7 is the clear winner. The improved sensor and it's faster AF are simply in another league. In fact lenses that you could never use on the GH6 what lighting is not perfect, suddenly come back to life on the GH7. - Sorry, ich habe gerade Deinen Channel angeschut, subscribed, und gemerkt dass wir auch Deutsch schreiben koennen.

@@ParadiseBizz Hey Danke für die Antwort. Ich finde die Gh6 wirklich super, nur eben Lowlight ist etwas schwach. Du meinst ein Upgrade würde da viel bringen?
@@fisharefriendsfilm Ehrlich gesagtist der neue sensor und der VENUS Engine Processor eine sehr gute Kombination, bringt eine deutliche Verbesserung in low light und in Fokus.
@@fisharefriendsfilm Riesen Unterschied whenn man in VLOG filmt (oder sogar RAW - das sind mir aber zu grosse files) holt man wesentlich mehr im Dynamic Range raus.

Don’t use histograms, use waveforms instead. I used a USB-C battery to power my GH6 as I shoot long form events, live theatre, concerts, and dance shows.
@@psysword Lumix G9 II - I'm in love with this one. It has almost all the perks of the GH7 (that I need) and it is smaller, and lighter so I can travel with it.

How is the stabilization performance on the G9 II? When you walk, settings to high, would you use IS Boost or not?
@@ParadiseBizzThe stabilization on the G9ii is the same as the GH7. IS Boost is for tripod emulation. I don't use IS Boost with E stabilization High

I still use GH5 with 3 manual lens
The older GH cameras are super when you're focusing manually. Real workhorses.
Great side by side comparison. How's the low light on the GH7?

Very interesting , thank you for this video . What frame rates and codec do you use mostly ?
My camera is set to MOV, filming at 5.8k 30fps in Cinelike D2
For the image to update according to the exposure triangle adjustments, you have to activate constant preview
THANK YOUUUUUUUU

Thank you so much. What would you like to see next? I thought I would test some 3rd party lenses for M43 cameras.

It is almost the same thing with cars> Everyone warns you not to buy the first batch, because it may be full of bugs that need fixing.

Thank you for the tip, I will start using the waveforms then
I'm looking forward to it😉👍
Thank you
Get the GH7 ;)
I hear you
32.Bit is a pretty big feature over the GH six but obviously you gotta pay to play.
I am sure it makes sense for filmmakers. I can not justify this expensive adapter for my small channel
Pretty much the same
Yepp
I only shoot as a filmmaker so no need for auto focus. Keeping my gh6
I am completely with you. Many people realize that the GH7 offers a lot - what most people don't need
@@ParadiseBizzi ended up buying a gh7 as my A cam. My gh6 is now my B cam. I'm shooting both of them in 12 bit. An investment.
@@psysword I totally can relay, the GH6 is also my b-roll cam
