Panasonic has introduced the G7 to replace the G6, and it sits just below the Panasonic GH4–but alongside the GX7. That's a lot of G numbers, but basically, the G7 is the company's mid-range compact system camera. Formerly the preserve of professional filmmakers and photographers, LUMIX G7 is opening up the world of 4K to everyone. Whether you're making movie memories to last a lifetime, or taking amazing stills from your 4K footage, the G7 is changing photography, for good.

With Panasonic Lumix DMC-G7, you can record 4K MP4 video and Full HD AVCHD video easily. 4K footage looks amazing but if you don’t have a fast computer with a high end RAM and speedy processor it can make video editing a real nightmare. Your computer may freeze or crash when editing G7 4K MP4 in Premiere Pro.

As far as we know, the latest version Premiere Pro CS6, CC usually can handle 4K files without much problem, but it is extremely hardware intensive. What's more, the older version Premiere Pro CS4/CS5 are not able to support 4K video. Thus, you can't get a flawless 4K workflow in most cases.
