Panasonic Lumix GX85 GX80 Video Review And Complete Test Footage

Panasonic GX85 Test and Review Video
The Panasonic Lumix GX85 / GX80 gets tested and reviewed by Micro 4/3 camera expert Mathieu Gasquet. The Panasonic GX85 is the successor to the GX7, a camera released almost three years ago and one of the top selling Micro Four Thirds cameras on the market.

Panasonic has decided to stay with a 16 Megapixel sensor for the GX80 / GX85. Now for the first time on any Lumix G body they have taken away the optical low-pass filter. Panasonic says it gives the camera a gain in resolution of around 10%, while not adding moire by possessor enhancing the image sensor. Panasonic now has upgraded the body-based sensor-shift stabilization which now moves in five axes and also works when filming video. The GX80 / GX85’s Dual IS capability also brings the optical stabilization of Lumix OIS lenses and the body’s built-in IS together for enhanced control when shooting.
