The latest Micro Four Thirds Lumix GH7 Mirrorless Camera from Panasonic, which now features ProRes RAW internal recording, 32-bit float recording with the optional DMW-XLR2 audio interface, Adobe Cloud Frame.io compatibility, versatile Open Gate framing, and real-time custom LUTs.Newly equipped with Apple ProRes RAW internal recording and 32-bit float recording for dramatic enhancements in the speed and quality of video production. There's no longer a need to adjust audio recording levels during shooting - with 32-bit float recording using the optional DMW-XLR2 adapter and internal recording of 5.7K 30p Apple ProRes 422 HQ and Apple ProRes RAW HQ. Improved AF performance with Phase Hybrid Autofocus by adding real-time recognition AF for Human/Animal/Car/Motorcycle/Train/Airplane. It has an improved 13+ stops of dynamic range boost despite its reduced cell size due to the increased number of pixels on the Micro Four Thirds sensor.5.7K30 ProRes RAW HQ footage can now be recorded internally on the camera via a CFexpress Type B card, giving you the freedom to capture the moment at the click of a button with minimal setup and no need for external devices. The SD slot can capture up to 10-bit 4K120 footage.

When combined with the separately available DMW-XLR2, the LUMIX GH7 delivers the world's first 32-bit float recording, improving the quality and efficiency of the entire workflow. The most important thing with autofocus is to be dependable. In addition to contrast AF, the LUMIX GH7 offers the Phase Detection AF system, which dramatically improves subject tracking performance and metering technologies. The LUMIX GH7 can now recognize a wider range of subjects and target parts, including human and animal eyes, the front of vehicles, the helmets of drivers and motorcyclists, the first car of a train, and the nose of an airplane. The Dynamic Range Boost function acquires two types of images with a single exposure and synthesizes them in real-time to create composite images with rich tonal range even in scenes with significant luminance differences. 

In-body, sensor-shift, 5-axis image stabilization is obtained with a high-precision gyro-sensor and a stabilization algorithm. At all focal lengths, this stabilization technology offers 7.5 stops of deviance from the shutter speed dictated by the reciprocal rule. Electronic stabilization is available to those who accept the slight cropping effect it requires. Boost I.S. mode is the most extreme form of electronic stabilization, simulating a shot locked off on a tripod. By utilizing this feature, you can save time on the complicated post-editing process. In combination with the LUMIX Lab app, you can easily create your own LUTs and install them on the camera. The Venus Engine's fast sensor readout limits the rolling shutter distortion to keep skyscrapers vertical when shooting from an automobile's action mount or to capture slow-motion footage of quickly moving objects. The GH7's ultra-fast Wi-Fi connection lets you pair the camera with your smartphone in three easy steps and transfers content seamlessly.

By using the separately available DMW-SFU3A Software Upgrade Key, users can use the ARRI LogC3, which enables color matching with ARRI's digital cinema cameras. The image processing of the ARRI LogC3 curve on LUMIX GH7 has been certified by ARRI for the implementation of this function. The GH7 supports unlimited recording up to DCI 4K at 60p with 4:2:2 10-bit sampling for pristine detail and depth in color grading.Panasonic recognizes the importance of shooting extended clips and has designed the GH7 to not have a maximum record time. There's no need to stop shooting due to overheating. 3D noise reduction is achieved by comparing three sequential frames, then automatically scrubbing the noise, which appears in only one of the three frames. In addition to internal recording to the CFexpress card, the GH7 supports 12-bit raw video output in 5.7K, DCI 4K, and Anamorphic 5.8K and 4.4K formats via HDMI when recording to Atomos Ninja V and V+ external recorders in ProRes RAW. Store up to 10 anamorphic lenses on the GH7 for quick swaps and ready-to-view, desqueezed footage. Images can be desqueezed in cinescope size. Magnification rate is also selectable from 1.30x, 1.33x, 1.5x, 1.8x, or 2.0x.

Simultaneous internal and external recording via the HDMI port broadens your options for redundancy and storage, particularly convenient when shooting live events over an hour long. Record in resolutions up to DCI 4K in 17:9 with a bit depth up to 4:2:2, 10-bit, and frame rates up to 60p, 50p, 30p, 25p, 24p. Time-lapse video interval capture is customizable for both shooting and playback durations, complete with exposure smoothing. Safety Zone Marker, Vertical Position Information, Center Marker Options, and Enlarged Live Display help keep your action properly oriented, centered, and in focus. The GH7 can stream directly via Wi-Fi, USB tethering, or wired Ethernet LAN. Choose your favorite streaming approach to share your latest in real-time. For outdoor use, wireless live streaming (RTMP/RTMPS) is easy to set up with the LUMIX Sync app. For indoor use, highly stable wired live streaming (RTP/RTSP) is also available. The high sensor readout speed reduces rolling shutter distortion. Shoot 75 fps with the electronic shutter and AFS or 14 fps with the mechanical shutter and AFS. With AFC, you can shoot at up to 8 fps with the mechanical shutter or 7 fps with the electronic shutter.

Manually select between several shutter modes depending on your needs: a mechanical shutter type, electronic front curtain type, electronic shutter type, electronic shutter type with noise reduction after shooting at a slow shutter speed, or let the camera automatically switch the shutter type depending on the conditions and shutter speed. The SD card slot records bitrates up to 600 Mb/s when using high-performance UHS-II U3 Class 10 SD cards. Both video and stills can be recorded and played back using an external SSD when connected via the USB-C port. This enables saving to larger capacity drives and working with media that are immediately compatible with most post-production workflows. The free-angle 3" 1.84m-dot LCD screen tilts toward the shooter, enabling high- and low-angle shots, as well as positions in tight corners that would otherwise be extremely difficult to properly frame and focus your camera. It features high contrast, high brightness, and high visibility even under strong sunlight. The body of the GH7 is engineered to keep out precipitation and dust down to 14°F. Despite its sealed design, heat dispersal is attained through an electric fan, heat sink, and frame that radiates heat away from the sensor, engine, and memory card.

To expand the flexibility of data transfers and remote control, wireless options are built into the design. Wi-Fi 5GHz and Bluetooth 5.0 enable the transfer of photos and footage to a cell phone, which can then be beamed to a news station. Updating the camera's firmware can be accomplished wirelessly via a smartphone. When prepping those cameras, save time and reduce errors by using the Lumix SYNC app to wirelessly match the recording settings. This camera provides options to connect to external devices. The USB-C port enables data transfers of 10 Gb/s, powers the camera, or charges the battery. A 3.5mm headphone jack is located on the side of the camera, above the 3.5mm headphone jack. On the front of the camera, a flash synchro socket doubles as a timecode in/out when using the included BNC converter cable.
