Love my G7. One small issue for me is the focus spot. I set the focus point by touching the LCD screen where I want the focus spot to be and press the Menu/Set button to lock it's position. This works for a number of exposures. Then, all of sudden I find the focus point has moved. I'm not sure if it's because I unknowingly press the LCD screen by accident or if it's something else. Anyone have a suggestion so I can lock the position of the focus point and not have it change over time? Thanks for any help or suggestion.
Tons of threads on this topic so i suggest a search and a thorough read as many folks have many different preference.
For *me* my default is the LCD flipped in, so of course no accidental touches AND i prefer to have the options of the four way controller (WB, ISO, focus mode etc) available.
When i do use the LCD i flip it out to the side and use my left thumb to move the focus point while using the EVF. I find this combination absolutely fantastic - just drag the focus point anywhere you want it within the shot.

The Fujifilm X-T5 is the company's latest classically-styled APS-C mirrorless camera. It gains the 40MP sensor and AF system from the X-H2 but in a body with a more stills-focused slant. We've been putting it through its paces.
We're Noct messing around with this review.
Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom impress in a lot of ways, but their noise reduction lags the competition and their lens corrections lack a real-world basis. DxO PureRAW 3 aims to come to their rescue without totally reinventing your workflow!
