Brand:
Category:

The Panasonic LUMIX GX85, also known as the GX80 in some regions, is a mid-range mirrorless interchangeable lens camera designed for both photography enthusiasts and videographers. Launched in 2016, it combines advanced features with a compact design, making it an attractive option for those seeking quality without the bulk of traditional DSLRs.

Key Features

  • 16MP Four Thirds MOS Sensor: The GX85 utilizes a 16-megapixel Four Thirds sensor that delivers high-quality images with excellent detail and color accuracy. Notably, this model lacks an optical low-pass filter, which enhances sharpness but may introduce moiré in certain situations.
  • Electromagnetically Driven Shutter: This innovative shutter mechanism significantly reduces shutter shock, resulting in sharper images at slower shutter speeds. It operates quietly, making it ideal for discreet shooting environments.
  • Depth from Defocus AF: The camera features advanced autofocus technology that improves focusing speed and accuracy by analyzing depth information from the scene.
  • 2.76M-dot Field Sequential EVF: The electronic viewfinder provides a clear and detailed view of your composition, although it does not tilt like some higher-end models.
  • 1.04M-dot Tilting Touchscreen Display: The rear LCD screen can tilt for easier framing of shots from various angles and supports touch functionality for intuitive control.
  • 4K Video/Photo Capability: The GX85 can shoot 4K video at up to 30 frames per second and offers a range of 4K photo modes that allow users to extract high-resolution still images from video footage.
  • 5-axis Image Stabilization with Dual I.S.: This system combines sensor-shift stabilization with lens-based stabilization to reduce blur caused by camera shake during handheld shooting.
  • Built-in Wi-Fi Connectivity: Users can easily share images and control the camera remotely via smartphones using the Panasonic Image App.

Design and Build Quality

The GX85 is compact and lightweight, making it suitable for travel and everyday use. Its build quality is robust, featuring a comfortable grip that enhances handling during extended shooting sessions. The camera includes a built-in pop-up flash for additional lighting when needed.

Performance

With fast autofocus capabilities rated down to -4EV, the GX85 excels in low-light conditions. It offers continuous shooting at 6 frames per second with autofocus tracking or up to 10 frames per second using the electronic shutter mode.

Image Quality

The image quality produced by the GX85 is competitive within its class, thanks to its effective sensor and advanced processing engine. It performs well across various ISO settings, although noise reduction can sometimes be overly aggressive in JPEG files at higher ISOs.

Limitations

While the GX85 boasts many impressive features, it lacks external microphone and headphone jacks, which may limit its appeal to serious videographers who require better audio control. Additionally, battery life could be improved; it’s rated for approximately 290 shots per charge under standard conditions.

Conclusion

Overall, the Panasonic LUMIX GX85 stands out as an excellent choice for photographers looking for a versatile mirrorless camera that balances performance with portability. Its combination of advanced imaging technology and user-friendly design makes it suitable for both beginners and experienced users alike.
