📷 Panasonic LUMIX G85 4K Digital Camera with 12-60mm Lens: 16MP, 5-Axis Dual Image Stabilization, Tilt LCD - DMC-G85MK (Black) Review

I bought the G85 to upgrade my GX7. I initially struggled with the system switch as I like the Fuji form factor and Sony engine; In the end I decided on the M4/3 because of the size: I can pack two bodies, 5 lenses and everything else I need into a Think Tank Trifecta 8 and get started. Key features that made me choose this camera: - Weatherproof: The included lens is weatherproof like some other Oly/Pana lenses. Put one on and get as close as possible to this waterfall. - IBIS: pair this…

I love this camera. Here are a few things to know: Stabilization is insanely good; Practice just walking with it when it's in wide-angle mode. Custom settings are very important to learn and use. Find out what they save and what they don't, and the differences between photo and video modes. This is very important and I suggest you watch YouTube to learn more about it. I personally use c1 for auto photos (and videos), c2a for custom manual videos, c2b for auto 4k videos, c2c for time lapse…

I've been using a Canon S3-IS for 10 or 15 years and before that a Canon AE-1 for many years. I was looking for a small waterproof camera suitable for travel. I was thinking of something like a GoPro, but to be honest that would be overkill for an action game at my age. I decided that a digital SLR would suit my needs better. Since I've always had a Canon, I went with them first. Very powerful but expensive and HEAVY! A little research led me to the Micro Four Thirds format in terms of weight…

I was skeptical about buying non-traditional camcorders. I've spent a long time pondering the pros and cons of 4K video cameras on a budget. The main criterion was that I needed two cameras. A friend has GH4s and loves them. Since the G85's specs are the same/better and the price was within my budget, I moved on thinking I might return if I didn't like them. several videos and still filming. The results were more than satisfactory and come from a professional photographer/filmmaker with over 40

One of the best budget cameras. hands down For current users, I strongly recommend that you do the following: Go to Menu --> Setup --> Beep (Page 2) --> Turn off Beep Volume and Electronic Shutter Volume. At first it annoyed me a lot. and I was happy to find it in the settings. Battery saving options can also be found on page 2 of settings such as live view (30 fps), monitor brightness and economy mode. Pros: Photo quality is very good and sharp, even with a 12-60mm kit lens. The image

I mainly use it for video and am very impressed with this camera. I like to shoot and then minimize editing, that's why I like the G85 so much. The 4k video quality with unclassified default settings is better than the GH4 I replaced it with. Clarity and color are better with default settings and I really don't have time to get lost in post. I also compared it to the Sony RX10iii and the 4K video quality was a little less detailed, but the overall picture was better with the G85. Also, menu…
