PANASONIC LUMIX DC-G90/95 Review

 


Quick verdict

The Panasonic Lumix G90 offers an excellent entry point for photographers and videographers trying to find a capable, customizable, and easy-to-use mirrorless camera. However, the older G80 is analogous and much cheaper, while Fujifilm offers strong competition within the X-T30.

In some ways, the G90 is that the GH5 "lite".

From a video perspective, the sole key feature it's missing is 4K video at 60 frames per second. It maxes out at 30 frames per second here, but you'll push it to higher frame-rates at lower Full HD resolution if you're then smooth slow-motion footage.

In the camera market, you'll often find cameras which may technically do video, but maybe aren't as user friendly, or do not have a totally articulating display, or even find yourself with footage that doesn't look as tip-top.


(Pocket-lint)

But that high-end accolade isn't an access point for several, which is where a Micro Four Thirds mirrorless camera just like the Lumix G90 comes into play.

With its 20-megapixel sensor, unlimited video options in 4K/Full HD, and a replacement design compared to its predecessor, the G90 cuts a robust stance within the mid-price mirrorless market.

The core of the Lumix G90 is essentially almost like the G80 that came before it. But you know the expression: 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it'. And when it involves the viewfinder and display specification, the G90 has everything that you're going to need.

It has a nicely proportioned grip on the proper side, coated during a suitably grippy texture to form it pleasant and straightforward to carry. What's more, the camera's body is weather-sealed and features a nice solid weight there too. It feels durable, except perhaps the large flexible flap that covers the ports on the left-hand side.

Over the years we've become familiar with employing a vari-angle LCD screen, which we discover essential for low-level positioning when shooting products. The G90's screen is aware of touch, ample in resolution and brightness, and much preferable to the tilt-angle options that some smaller cameras put in situ (like the Sony A6400).

The viewfinder is even more special because of a huge magnification (0.74x) which makes the image appear very large to the attention.

When it involves performance, Panasonic offers a uniform autofocus setup for the bulk of its mirrorless cameras. This comprises a variety of area modes, whether selecting automatic across the majority of the frame, Area for a specific section of the frame, a 1-Area single area point, or Pinpoint AF for 100 percent zoom focus confirmation.

But there's more: the G90 also offers Face/Eye AF, just like the Lumix S1, which is basically useful for automatic tracking. If you're shooting portraits then the eye-tracking mode is especially impressive, locking onto a topic with ease and holding focus irrelevant of movement.

The G90 is also the first Lumix camera to offer a real-time Bulb mode, called Live Composite, which updates the exposure in real-time on the rear screen when you're shooting long exposures. It's a great idea - one that Olympus has long offered in its cameras - designed to enrich Panasonic's sort of Starlight AF modes for star photography.

While the G90 can't hit the same ultra-high frame-rates as the G9, it offers 9fps in single autofocus and 6fps in continuous. 


Image and Video Quality

! 20-megapixel Micro Four Thirds sensor, Venus Engine

! 3.5mm headphones jack, 3.5mm microphone jack

! 4K video to 30fps, 1080p to 120fps (slow-mo)

! Unlimited video recording time

! V-Log L

The G90 could be a stop to the G9's price, but with an identical 20-megapixel sensor arrangement you'll expect an equivalent degree of image quality.

Using this lens, the camera focuses quickly.

We did see slightly of image noise within the shadows on some images too, but otherwise quality is high grade.

One of the most important areas of focus for the G90 is within the video capture department.
