GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?
Enthusiast Photography, Travel & Street — X-T30 III (2025): 40MP resolution and flagship-level subject detection in the most affordable X-T body — the best value Fujifilm camera ever made.
Video & Documentary — GH7 (2024): The GH7 is the GH series at its peak — phase-detect AF finally arrived, alongside 5.7K/60p open-gate, C4K/60p 10-bit 4:2:2, and ProRes RAW. A landmark video camera in the Micro Four Thirds format, and the most complete GH Panasonic has ever built.
