Panasonic Lumix DC-G110 mit Objektiv Lumix G Vario 12-32mm 3.5-5.6 ASPH OIS

The Lumix G100 is one of the most compact mirrorless cameras around, but packs a decent feature-set with a built-in viewfinder, fully-articulated side-hinged screen, external mic input and a clever built-in three-mic system. Panasonic may be pitching it primarily at vloggers, but it also makes for a very nice compact general-purpose camera that can take different lenses. In terms of vlogging I found optical and standard electronic stabilisation delivered fair results, although beware of the tighter crop when using the strongest electronic mode. Filming in 4k also incurs a tight crop even without stabilisation, making it unsuitable for vloggers or those who like to see more of their surroundings. As for autofocus, the G100 was good, certainly better than the Canon G7X, but not as confident as rivals with phase-detect or Dual Pixel AF, so be warned if you enjoy moving back and forth when filming. For pure vlogging and video creation, I feel the more confident AF, practical 4k and longer recording clips make the Sony ZV-1 preferable. But as an all-rounder, the G100 is more tempting with its viewfinder and chance to switch lenses. Do however keep an eye on the price of the Lumix G90 / G95 as it gives you IBIS, unlimited recording, an OLED viewfinder, headphone jack and a more flexible kit zoom for not a great deal more. Meanwhile Canon’s EOS M50 also remains a compelling choice for vloggers with excellent autofocus so long as you forget about 4k. The choice is yours, although I love that both Sony and Panasonic are now taking built-in microphones more seriously with much improved audio as a result.
