Handling is good and fits my hand, the case specially designed for G7 is handsome and well-made. The dial and multi-direction selector on the back of the computer are a bit small but function very well.
AF is fast and accurate, face detection by and large does it job. I found its ISO 400 noise level ok. I am confident with its AWB and colour rendition is good and faithful. Long battery life serves me well.
I like to use it with external flash and G7 works seamlessly with 430EX, and balances well. Images taken with external flash are on a par with DSLR.
IS works but not very spectacular.
缺點:
Image lacks detail, very often hair appears as a large black patch. It has week dynamic range, often face highlight problem, I wouldn't mind to lose some MP to get dynamic range. I really wish the zoom starts at 28mm and I wish I can get earlier warnings before the battery dies. No RAW or interval picture taking? Why?
評價:
I was very hesitant to buy it at first and competitor's offerings were equally strong on paper, but now I am glad I have it with me all the time, not missing any single opportunity to take good photos. I never had any G-series before, and I am very satisfied with G7. I guess other users trying to compare it with old Gs should not limit themselves to experience the strength of it. Nor they should use the old mindset to evaluate G7 because no one makes prosumer DC with fast lens now.
I would recommend people to buy it if it is cheaper.
I use it happy-go-luckily, and so far I have no problem with dust yet.
