Pros
- - Size and weight. After DSLRs it seems like a toy, and you are afraid to break it) - The photo is excellent even at high iso - Video 4k - image stabilizer
Cons
- As such, I did not find any obvious shortcomings. The only thing that upsets is the inability to charge from the power bank during the shooting process, you need to turn off the camera
Cons
- Updates available
Cons
- Not bad
Cons
- I won't say anything
Cons
- Security
Pros
- Good detailing of photos even with a whale 12-32mm, but the camera is fully revealed with professional-level optics - in addition to sharpness, light and color appear. Lots of features and settings. Built-in stabilization. Workmanship - does not look cheap plastic. Compact enough - with a 14 / 2.5 type pancake lens, it fits easily into a jacket pocket.
Cons
- Weak battery. Noise at high ISO (although, depending on what to compare). Autofocus weakens in dark and flickering light. Artifacts around small items in Jpeg. Tends to moiré when shooting fine rhythmic textures. When shooting video in 4K, the picture is noticeably cropped at the edges.
Pros
- 1. Micro 4/3. IMHO, at the moment the most balanced standard with a wide selection of lenses, and if you look at the adapters, there is generally an endless field for creativity, if you want higher, then FF, but a little expensive for now, if lower, then a smartphone :), but it’s up to real quality with viewing on the monitor is far away, the model is not important, physics, alas. 2. Compact, but in moderation, it doesn’t feel like a soap box at all, even after a DSLR. 3. Photo quality, remarkable in its class, is no longer needed for home and non-fanatic amateurs. 4. Flexibility and reasonable settings. 5. 4K video quality and stabilization (double with some native lenses). At wide angles, it is quite possible to do without a tripod. 6. Combination of electronic and mechanical shutter. 7. Image application from panasonic for smart, when shooting from a tripod, the thing is indispensable. 8. Very good in comparison with another whale lens (which is 12-32), detailing, compact, quite enough for the first time. 9. Charging from an external battery, useful on the road.
Cons
- In general, they are voiced, since the camera is not the first year on the market, and they are not so critical, but . 1. There is no input for an external microphone, and when shooting with some lenses, the noise of the focus motor is heard. Solvable, and rather not for everyone, the problem, for example, I do editing more often, and most of it is covered with background music. 2. 4K Video with crop 1.25, if you want to shoot landscapes you need to think about the width, 12/24 (eq) is not always enough, although subjectively. 3. Noise after ISO 400, but this comes from the size of the matrix, in principle, up to 1600 they are pressed relatively easily in post-processing. 4. The price, probably, on the other hand, in Europe in the summer of 2022, I got a whale for 500 euros at a sale, at a price, in principle, even a few hundred higher, there was nothing particularly interesting.
