Pros: Solid, lightweight, tropicalized, stabilized, ergonomic, beautiful, good battery life, conveniently located SD slot

Cons: Contrast autofocus, 1.4x crop when shooting in 4k (30fps only), high ISO grip (like all MFTs)

Opinion: I state that although I am trying to make photography my job, I am still an amateur and therefore this review will focus only on my impressions about a camera that I have owned for a year (and given the times of famine I will keep until it collapses on itself or until I win the lottery) and that I have taken almost everywhere and to do almost any type of photography. Starting with the pros we have among all: 1) exceptional stabilization (combined with Panasonic stabilized lenses allows long shutter speeds without losing sharpness even handheld); 2) good ergonomics, even for people with big hands like mine (but the battery grip would perhaps be comfortable in certain situations such as when shooting so vertically); 3) Lightweight but well built, it gives the idea of a solid tool when you hold it in your hand. The construction is made of metal and good quality plastic; 4) tropicalized and also good from my experience (I had the opportunity to try it both in the heat under the pouring rain of a summer storm, an ideal situation for the formation of condensation, and in the cold on a snowy day in the mountains and I have never had problems); 5) beautiful to look at, which seems like, but I am of the opinion that if you like something to look at it also makes you want to use it, and therefore to experiment. 6) good battery life despite being a mirrorless (for full day trips I only needed two batteries, in fact I don't have any others); 7) position of the SD slot to the side of the battery slot, so if it is mounted on a tripod you won't go crazy to change cards; 8) FHD 1080p at 60fps, 4k at 30fps (with 1.4x crop) excellent as a b cam for a videomaker, V-log; 9) very nice image styles, exceptional Leica monochrome The cons, in spite of myself, are several: 1) the resistance to high ISO, a feature that still afflicts the whole MFT system, is not very good, but the issue can be solved by buying brighter lenses (moreover, thanks to the new noise reduction function with artificial intelligence of Lightroom you can clean very very well even a photo with very heavy grain); 2) it does not have a joystick but only the D-Pad, which is actually also fine, given the entry level of the camera; 3) 49 autofocus areas and is of the contrast type, but despite this it still manages to identify subjects even in low light situations; 4) the autofocus tracking function is useless: if the camera was of the phase detection type it would have made sense to put the tracking function and consequently the lack of the joystick would be felt, but given the contrast focus, the absence of the joystick is irrelevant and the presence of tracking is useless (never used seriously, but only to try it); 4) the field of view is different, given the size of the sensor, but it is almost irrelevant unless one has to do architectural photography (and perhaps if one does a certain type of work certainly does not go on such a system but remains on the FF or MF); 5) a single slot for the SD; 6) the flash cannot be tilted on the ceiling but is only frontal; 7) 4k at 30fps crops by a factor of 1.4x, which may not seem much, but if you want to shoot a wide field it becomes uncomfortable Having said that, I think that as an entry level it is an exceptional camera, the kit lens allows you to do everything and a possible second lens should be taken only if you have specific claims about a certain field of application (in my case with sports photography I took the 35-100mm f2.8 from 2012 which is exceptional). I'm not going to get rid of it and I'll probably keep it until it breaks (another pro the 4 year FOWA warranty if purchased from an authorized dealer) and if the micro four thirds isn't dead when I have to change machines, it will probably remain my favorite choice.

Pros: Dimensions, ergonomics, functionality

Cons: Autofocus

Opinion: The G90 could be my ultimate machine. It has the right dimensions, an almost perfect ergonomics (holding it in my hand I can fit the handle as if it were a glove) and has all the features that an amateur photographer needs. Why won't it be my ultimate camera for sure? Well, mainly because Panasonic's autofocus is really painful. Luck wants that with the m4/3 using manual focus is much less problematic. And then the sensor, although good, now begins to feel the weight of the years, especially on the resilience of the highlights. Overall a great camera, recommended for all photographers. A little less to the most demanding videomakers.

Pros: Eclectic camera, it does everything and does it well. Ideal size, neither too large nor too small. Light, but well built. Excellent ergonomics and arrangement of buttons / controls. Operating speed. Last Menu inherited from G9. Built-in Flash.

Cons: Excessive cropping in 4K. DFD with some limitations. 'Old' rear LCD display. Automatic white balance for my taste not perfect, but easily calibrated. Battery discreet, but improvable. Price at launch too high.

Opinion: What can I say, I had both the G80 and the G9 and the G90 tries to place itself in the middle scopiazzando the little sister while maintaining weights and above all dimensions of the G80. As always happens in these cases in order not to make excessive competition to the excellent G9 in Panasonic they have deliberately castrated it. Compared to the latter, in fact, the AF has a few less options; sometimes not very precise, but I noticed that it depends a lot on the selected focus mode and also on the lens you use. In AF-S he rarely gets it wrong. Let's say that at the base of this speech there is always the fact that Panasonic insists on using the DFD and to date, despite being overall a good AF system, it is not the best that the market offers. Compared to the G80 they have improved the keys (especially some, the most used ones) that are now not flush with the body and therefore feel more easily to the touch. One refinement I appreciated is the choice of three different keys for WB/ISO/Exposure Compensation... they are in fact one raised and convex, one with two small protuberances, one smooth plate; in this way only by touching them you will understand where you are acting. One/two buttons I would have put them in a different position, but they are personal tastes. A criticism that I would like to make to Panasonic is to continue to use LCD panels now dated ... the EVF still does its homework, it is a fairly large discrete unit that allows you to photograph without any particular problems. The rear panel, equipped with an excellent touchscreen, is instead not very resolute (according to what should be the standards in 2020/2021) and in conditions of strong light that is not easily readable. So poor reproduction of color shades and low brightness in certain environmental conditions. I say, Sony does much worse with the obscene LCD panels that mounts on the A6xxx series and the first A7, unusable under the Sun, but I would have preferred that on this G90 and other models of the G and GH series Panasonic had started to mount more modern panels, perhaps with Amoled technology. An annoying thing for me is the crop in 4K, really excessive, in some circumstances it can be comfortable, but generally I find it more a limit than a value. It is clear that it was wanted not to step on the toes of the G9, but on this model also voted a lot to the video sector they should not have included it in my opinion. And speaking of the video side, the G90 is very complete, even for the evolved customer, even including LOG profile and unlimited duration of recordings. Only a professist who works with videos might prefer a GH5. Another Panasonic feature, more than the G90, concerns the automatic white balance, which has always not been perfect (better Olympus at this juncture), but improved with the latest models; it has a tendency to introduce one too many magenta drizzle for my taste, but it is always calibrable at will. What else to add... it is a multifaceted camera, you can do everything, I took it precisely because of these characteristics. Reliable, always ready, it is the companion who never betrays you. Highly customizable, you can really sew it on you once you have programmed the keys (even virtual, on display) and the rings. The Menu inherited from the G9 is really good and thanks to the MyMenu section you practically avoid having to look for options in the many pages. The sensor is the classic 20 MP that for years has been the standard in the Micro 4/3, for my needs I find it more than enough. I conclude by saying that in my opinion it represents one of the most sensible choices for those who love the Micro 4/3 and need a versatile, practical and reliable camera. Its only real 'defect' concerned the price that brought it dangerously close to the G9, but already today it has settled on values more suitable for its range of belonging and later it will be even more a best-buy. Recommended

Pros: Size within micro43; compactness and grip; display and layout of controls.

Cons: Af sometimes dancer

Opinion: As a amateur I bought the g90 for a few months considering whether to buy the G9. I'm feeling good, it's not too big although the grip is great reflex-like. Light, compact and robust, it resists splashes and dust, excellent video skills that does not hurt, same sensor as the g9 but lower price and latest machine. Profile photo bn interesting monochrome, good jpeg, raw workable, but I'm not too experienced in post prod. For those looking for reliable means and with good quality I would say right choice. Taken at 700 leotards with 4 years fowa for me occasion. The advice even for those like me who have small hands is not too bulky but fair

Pros: Port equipment (there's also the headphone jack), much improved video focus, VlogL profile, WB/ISO/Exposure physical buttons, tropicalization, stabilization, 20-megapixel sensor

Cons: weight and size increased compared to the G80, usb port type B and not C, lack of NFC

Opinion: Substantial evolution of the already excellent G80, the G90 is the mirrorless to beat for the high mid-range of the market. None at this price offers this quality and this endowment. I was particularly surprised by the contrasting focus, decidedly improved compared to the previous version chje was at the limit of decency in the videos. The G90 is not a Sony, but now the system works more than well. The Micro 4/3 is not a Full Frame, but it always has its advantages. Other considerations can be found in this video: https://youtu.be/UUGYgtdE2OI
