20.3MP Digital Live MOS Sensor and Venus Engine
The combination of the Venus imaging engine and 20.3-megapixel CMOS Micro Four Thirds sensor ensures the G97 camera body delivers excellent image quality across various situations and lighting conditions. The omission of a low-pass filter enhances the camera's ability to render fine details while minimising the effects of moiré.
This powerful pairing also provides high-speed performance, enabling up to 9 fps with AF-S and 6 fps with AF-C, ensuring the camera can keep up with fast-paced action.
5-Axis Image Stabilisation and Dual I.S. 2
When shooting handheld, users can achieve excellent sharpness thanks to Dual I.S. 2 stabilisation, which combines 5-axis sensor-shift image stabilisation with lens-based optical image stabilisation. This system compensates for up to five stops of camera shake, delivering sharper and clearer images. Note that Dual I.S. 2 requires a compatible MFT Lumix lens with O.I.S. such as the one included in this kit.
