Re: GX7- What settings are you using for contrast, Sharpness, Saturation etc.

And in case it's out of the question shooting RAW (but it's the general consensus that you do), I use the Natural photo style at default with both i.Dynamic and i.Resolution turned off, and AWB at default [I use this for deliberating bad shots from good shots on a PC since thumbnails for RAW files doesn't show up]. The GX7 does a better job than the GX1 in terms of JPEG's I found no reason *yet* to change the default values.

But for comparison, I used to have NR -1 and Contrast +1 on the GX1 with AWB adjusted to A+2/M+1, or A+1/M+2.

But I decided to shoot RAW since I had some sort of "Olympus envy", and during that time before the E-M5, it was general knowledge that Olympus will always have better JPEG's but Panasonic will always have better RAW. So I thought, why not utilize my camera to the fullest? So yeah, I suggest learning how to edit RAW files, it's worth it.
