  • Use the Live View Finder (LVF) with its live histogram to ensure your exposure is spot on before you take the shot. This feature helps you adjust settings in real-time, avoiding overexposed or underexposed images.
  • Assign custom functions to the Fn buttons on your Lumix DC-G97 to quickly access your most-used settings. This customization speeds up your workflow and keeps you focused on capturing the moment.
