Product Highlights:

Starting with the successor to the G95, the new Lumix G97 camera retains a familiar design with welcome upgrades. Now you’ll be able to review images with even more detail with the 1,840k-dot free-angle LCD, which supports viewing from a variety of angles. This LCD design is particularly beneficial if you’re recording yourself or if you need to capture at extremely low or high angles that don’t allow viewfinder usage. USB-C support is now available, adding convenience and continuity with most other modern cameras. Bluetooth 5.0 is provided for considerably faster data transferring, longer range, and greater power efficiency. Paired with the body is the Lumix G Vario 12-60mm f/3.5-5.6 lens, which provides a 24-120mm full-frame equivalency and an exceptional zoom range that ensures you’re covered for most subjects. Additionally, both a 3.5mm headphone jack and 3.5mm microphone input are available for bettering audio capture.

Like its predecessor, the Panasonic G97 features a 20.3MP CMOS sensor and Venus Engine processor for producing sharp still imagery and impressive UHD 4k video with low noise. The built-in 5-stop 5-axis Dual I.S. 2 system provides added stability and prevents camera shake from impairing image sharpness. To experience the full benefit of the stabilization system, compatible Lumix lenses featuring O.I.S. must be used. The LUMIX Photo Style feature allows you to fine tune your images without needing to bring them into outside apps, saving you time and giving you access to unique editing capabilities.

Product Highlights:

Now, onto a camera that certainly may turn heads because of how popular digital point-and-shoots are at the moment. The Panasonic Lumix ZS99 is a powerful pocket-sized zoom that provides a vast 30x zoom range. Available in black or silver, this sleek, travel-friendly camera is perfect for capturing concerts, sweeping landscapes, and intimate close-ups. The largest concern when shooting handheld at zoom ranges this distant is camera shake. To help compensate, Panasonic has incorporated a 5-axis HYBRID O.I.S. system into the ZS99. While you might expect a stationary LCD display, it’s instead tiltable, allowing whoever is facing the camera to see the 1,840k-dot monitor, making self-recording much easier. Universal USB-C charging and convenient sharing via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.0 round out this camera as a flexible and high-performing point-and-shoot option.

WR Courtland Sutton surpassed 1,000 yards last week, but he dropped a touchdown pass and caught just four of the 10 passes Bo Nix threw his way. Sutton has 73 receptions for 1,012 yards and seven TDs this season, a similar output to last year when he caught 81 passes for 1,081 yards and eight TDs.

The Chargers offensive line and backup QB versus Denver's dominant pass rush. The Broncos have had a franchise-record and NFL-best 64 sacks so far and are within striking distance of the NFL record of 72 set by the 1984 Chicago Bears, who had a dozen in their season finale that year.

Chargers: Coach Jim Harbaugh said he's sitting QB Justin Herbert (left hand) for the finale along with several other starters. Rookie RB Omarion Hampton (ankle) missed practice time this week as did CB Nikko Reed (hamstring) and OL Jamaree Salyer (hamstring). Harbaugh said he doesn't expect Salyer to play Sunday.

Broncos: LB Dre Greenlaw has been dealing with a hamstring injury and won't play in the finale. WR Pat Bryant (concussion), TE Nate Adkins (knee) and DL John Franklin-Meyers (hip) were limited in practice this week.

The Chargers have won all three games against Denver and Sean Payton with Jim Harbaugh as head coach. All three have been one-score games.

The Chargers clinched a playoff berth for the second straight season, the first time that's happened since they reached the postseason four consecutive times from 2006-09. ... The Bolts are coming off a 20-16 loss to Houston in which they were 2 of 5 in the red zone while the defense allowed a pair of rare long touchdown passes to open the game.

Broncos QB Bo Nix is tied for the second-most victories over the first two seasons at his position with 23. With a win Sunday, he'll tie Russell Wilson's NFL record of 24 wins in his first two seasons. ... Nix needs one TD pass to become the fourth QB in NFL history with at least 25 in each of his first two seasons. ... Nix is the third player ever, joining Herbert and Peyton Manning, with 3,500-plus passing yards and 25 or more TD passes in each of his first two NFL seasons. ... RB RJ Harvey leads rookies with a dozen TDs this season. He's scored a TD in five consecutive games. ... LB Nik Bonitto had two sacks in Week 3 against the Chargers.
