I've always enjoyed photography and have had some digital cameras over the years, but this time, I really wanted to learn more about taking photos. After doing a lot of research, I chose to get a mirrorless for for its portability as I did not want to carry a big camera an lug a camera bag around.

Incredible camera ! Image quality is amazing having printed photos to 11x14 and looking like large format. The panoramic feature a breeze to use the soft focus all the items are at hand and very useful. I like the viewfinder it could be bigger but still very nice.

I use it as a B-Cam paired with my Lumix GH5 and I love it. In body stabilization is crazy good, it's super small and light. Great image quality in 4K and the screen is amazing. The kit lenses are okay, but what I don't like about the 12-32mm is that there is no focus ring.

Vraiment très bien. Je commence à apprécier la visée par écran, ce que j'appréhendais le plus. Viseur optique pas très utilisable en plein soleil, mais suffisant dans les autres conditions.

The Lumix GX850, otherwise known as the GX800 in Europe or the GF9 in Japan, is the latest interchangeable lens model from Panasonic and also one of the smallest 4K capable cameras on the market today. As with all our most recent reviews, this full review is available in video format.

The Panasonic GX850 puts excellent image-quality into a compact camera body. Even though the GX850 is a mirrorless, this and its price puts it in competition with Premium Compact cameras while having the advantage of interchangeable lenses and higher image-quality.

Low image noise until ISO 3200; Nicely saturated colors; Very good Automatic White-Balance; Very fast autofocus; Instant shutter-lag; Fast and highly responsive; Extremely compact; Advanced feature-set; Solid built quality

Slight general image softness; Metering overly bright; Dynamic-range not as wide as competition; Wrong Live-Histogram; No built-in EVF; Preview not always Exposure-Priority; Missing video mode; Video recording delay; Poor battery-life

The Lumix DMC-GX850 might look like a classic camera, but it's actually a snapper for the selfie generation. With a flip-up screen, versatile lens and variety of shooting modes, the mirrorless camera has all the tools to improve your social feed. But does it do enough to justify carrying a camera…

The Panasonic Lumix GX800 / GX850 is an entry-level mirrorless camera that's aimed at anyone upgrading from a phone or compact camera. It features a 16 Megapixel Micro Four Thirds sensor, interchangeable lenses, the ability to record Full HD or 4k video, has built-in Wifi and a touchscreen that...

Compact, lightweight body with swappable lenses; Crisp, detailed and relatively low noise 16 Megapixel photos; 4K movies and 4K Photo modes with post focus adjustments; Touchscreen tilts up to face subject for selfies and vlogging; Fast single autofocus that works in very low light.

Screen doesn’t tilt down and becomes hard to view in bright conditions; No built-in viewfinder (but not surprising at this price); Optical stabilisation on kit zoom not as effective as other lenses; No mic input (again not surprising, but great for vloggers).

Despite its midrange pice, the Lumix DMC-GX85 ($699.99, body only) is Panasonic's current entry-level Micro Four Thirds camera . It has a lot going for it that will appeal to casual photographers looking to better smartphone quality, as well as more serious shutterbugs and videographers, including a...
