G97E + H-HFSA14140E With its 20-megapixel sensor, dust and splash protection, 4K capabilities, and 5-axis dual IS image stabilization, the Lumix G97 is well-equipped for a wide range of shooting situations. An OLED viewfinder combined with a fully tiltable touchscreen makes composing images from unusual angles easier. For videographers, it offers 4K 30p without time limits, Full HD slow motion and time-lapse, microphone and headphone jacks, and Vlog-L recording. The 4K photo modes provide room for additional creativity. Bluetooth and Wi-Fi make it easy to share images on the go, and the USB charging function allows for charging with a universal USB-C cable.

The Lumix G97 only has a few new features compared to the G91 from 2019. Nevertheless, it offers attractive functions such as the integrated image stabiliser. The 4K photo functions, which Panasonic has omitted from newer cameras, can still be found here. The fact that the camera is no longer quite up to date can be seen in the autofocus, which is not capable of phase detection, and the not very fast...

- High image quality
- large viewfinder
- weather-protected
- Very long video recordings
- Autofocus not always accurate in series

It is only in low light and at high ISO settings that the fine details are increasingly lost...
