Awesome value-for-money camera. I had used the G7 previously and that left something to be desired. I'm using this with an old Fujinon ENG lens, so adapting to this 2/3 lens to a m4/3 body is easy with a dummy adapter and doubler on the lens. This also meant that features like IBIS, HDMI out while recording, and no video record limit nor file chaptering were very attractive to me, and I didn't need super advanced PDAF like other cameras. Battery life and general usability are excellent for video. Overall, this was a great fit for me and have no complaints thus far.

Their is only one thing wrong with this model, but it is a big deal. The autofocus is horrible. Everything else is very good. I have winded a Nikon D810 and this camera beats it quality wise.

The Panasonic G85 is still an exceptional camera in 2018. I got it as a B-camera to my GH5, and it really holds its own. So much so that I would recommend it as a main camera for anyone that doesn't want to spring for the GH5. The body is small enough to be inconspicuous and easy to pack, but it's substantial enough to feel balanced with the 35-100 zoom. The weather sealing, I.B.I.S. and unlimited recording time make it a great choice for the price point.

Panasonic has made a name for itself in the past year not only on its solid technologies, but also for offering up very competitive cameras. The Lumix G85 is another great camera, one that gets better if you buy with its 12-60mm kit lens. This new kit option is also weather sealed, making the full camera ready to shoot in the rain. That's almost unheard-of at $1,000, especially in the mirrorless camera world. You'd have to pay significantly more to get the same performance and weather resistant build from Olympus. In a very welcome upgrade, the G80 / G85 now gains a magnesium alloy front plate and weather-sealing; a key benefit over its predecessor and the GX80 / GX85, and a feature that importantly brings it in line with the dust and splash-proof Olympus OMD EM5 Mark II and Sony A6300. I'm also pleased to find the G80 / G85 kit includes the recent 12-60mm zoom which is also weather-sealed, making it more desirable in range and build over the 12-32mm non-sealed kit zoom of the GX80 / GX85. It's also longer than the weather-sealed 12-50mm zoom often bundled with the OMD EM5 Mark II. In your hands, the G80 / G85 feels a World apart from the light and plasticky Lumix G7. It's heavier and feels reassuringly denser as a result. The dials didn't feel quite as chunky or the feedback as tactile as those on the EM5 Mark II, but in terms of overall feel, the G80 / G85 has come on a long way since earlier models in the series. Like the G7 before it, you can compose with a 3in fully-articulated screen or a 2360k dot OLED viewfinder, although Panasonic has upgraded the magnification from 0.7x to 0.74x. Revealingly the EVF specification now matches the OMD EM5 Mark II, a camera which also features a fully-articulated touch-screen, making them very similar in terms of composition. I should also add I much prefer the composition options of the G80 / G85 to the GX80 / GX85 as not only is the screen fully-articulated versus vertically-tilting only, the OLED panel in the viewfinder also looks much better to my eyes.Read full review

Another excellent Micro 4/3 offering from Panasonic. Slightly larger than some of the previous versions, but still very compact and lightweight for an Mirrorless ILC. Comfortable to hold and operate. Easy for even an advanced camera newcomer to operate for basic picture taking. Excellent Electronic Viewfinder. Lens is perfect for general use and travel - great wide and telephoto range in a relatively small and light package.
