On a G7 I bought used the images come with a 4592x3448 resolution for JPEG and 1920x1440 for raw. When I switch the mode to RAW only, the resolution/image size option in the menu is greyed out.
Is there some other setting I am unware of that makes higher res unavailable?
Or could it be caused by a buggy (custom) firmware the previous owner might have installed?
I can't believe the higher res is only available for JPEG by design -- can anybody familiar with Lumix cameras confirm this?
I can't really find the statement that RAW in full resolution is available explicitly in the specs: https://shop.panasonic.com/cameras-and-camcorders/cameras/lumix-interchangeable-lens-ilc-cameras/DMC-G7HK.html#pnsb2c-pdp-specifications

Don't worry — the RAW files are the full resolution. They contain all of the data recorded by the camera. The option to change resolution is grayed out because there's no in-camera way to reduce it, not because it is stuck on small.
However, for that data to be viewed, it need to be interpreted. See What does an unprocessed RAW file look like? for more on this. Because of this, RAW files also include an embedded JPEG preview. This lets you quickly see the camera's rendering of the image on an image viewer or operating system file preview window.
My guess is that on your camera, this embedded preview is lower resolution. Open your RAW file in a RAW processing program like Rawtherapee, Darktable, or Lightroom, and you'll get full resolution.

Thanks! So it WAS a pitfall, just not with the camera, but in my case the IrfanView plugin. I never would have guessed this was the issue here. Thanks for the quick help!
