Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 лют 2017
- The Panasonic Lumix GX850 - aka the GF800 or the GF9 depending on where in the world you live, is the latest offering from Panasonic. This camera features a compact design but has a micro 4/3 sensor and the ability to change lenses.
There are a few stumbling blocks, but this is an excellent camera for traveling and vlogging and comes in at an amazing price point.

Swept along there with a riveting review ! Always a pleasure listening to Mr F.
I love your camera reviews. They're an insight on how you work and real world use cases which are relevant to us. I bought my RX100 m3 because of you and I couldn't be happier/ I'm glad Panasonic has created this camera, but the RX100 is just fantastic with minimum fuss.
I dont usually comment on photography videos without correcting something thats been said, but in this case I just want to say I watch alot of your camera reviews and you are by far the best solo reviewer out there. Video quality is top notch, audio is spot on and the amount of information given is excellent. Keep it up!
Love your videos! Great review very well explained! You make things look so easy!
Love your reviews and your videos. Very detailed and straight to the point. Keep it up!
Thanks!
Enjoy your Panasonic review & photography as art...like to read your opinion which MFT Gx/G or any Lumix (w/15mm or?) is close to the Fuji x100F, latest version . I understand the leaf shutter sync with all speed advantage with Fuji ...I am get used to the menus & use of the Panasonic (gh2/3 user) thanks!
Wow, great review. Admiring cam you used to record this video n so glad it's the gx
The GX85 with that flip up screen is what I need
Too bad it doesn't have the IBIS
True! I haven't found anything that's better than gx 85😭
no, it has recording time limitation, and hot issue, which reduces flexibility
Thank you for the thorough, concise, and informative review.
Thanks for your reviews!
I sold my GX85 for this GX850 and I absolutely love it. It is a pocket-able, fast-operating camera for just $450 (grey)! Very happy with IQ / 4K/ 1080p60 in good light however low light IQ is poor. GX85 was also poor. It's all about trade-offs and compromises and in scheme of things I am very happy with this GX850.
Awesome review!!! Hats off.
nice review, this is an upgrade from the GM 1. if you're not into 4k, and the flip screen the GM 1 (if you can find one) is fantastic. I used it as a travel camera, shot raw (over 3000 photos) and I was not disappointed, it was awesome. having that much power in a little palm size camera is great. Your review makes me happy to keep what I have because I'm 95% into photos. thank you.
With my GX7, GX85 and G9 I find that they often underexpose compared to what I want, not overexpose. I usually shoot with aperture priority and about half the time I use one plus third of a stop exposure compensation. Excellent review. Thanks.
What a nice explanation! You are the art ;) Cheers from Swiss!
Interesting offering from Panasonic. I really wish they could match Sony in the AF department. I'd be into them so hard!
Perfect review, good infos. Thx!
Solid review Ted!! Thanks for sharing! Great value in a small package - seeing it next to the RX100 V really put things into perspective. As a brand, all the way from this camera to the GH5, I'm really beginning to feel like Panasonic's become a brand focused on delivering features at a decent value... which is pleasantly refreshing when the other brands have made me feel like every new feature comes at a premium.
Thanks Chris - agreed…
Panny has been doing that for years. DVX100, GH2, GH4...
Panasonic always had issues with colors until the late Venus Engine 9 era arrived and solved that (gx8 to g85) :D
It is not solid review he didn't go thru everything We don't know it does 4k clean HDMI output
Thanks for the detailed review. I've been telling myself "I need to watch a tutorial or 3 & play with my camera more."
I've been saying this for years. The wait is over! This is definitely a bit of a tutorial. Thank you. I've always been a shutterbug and bought my 1st SLR which I loved, a $250 used Canon AE1 with a straight 50mm and I think twas a 70-200mm zoom, I'm sure. Of the 200 part, and, of course, a used bag in 1998 to shoot my passion back then, motorsports. And stuff that looks cool. Specifically road racing.
I've become quite the love music addict and have had one issue a lot, I cannot remember what the specs are when it happens, but it is at indoor concerts, blues/rock venues, typical max capacity of 300. Yes, I first saw Samantha Fish at my hometown Chesapeake Bay Blues Festival in 2013. 27 shows later, I'm still a fan.😱😋. (You might want to check her out, and I've loved watching her progression, seeing how much better she's gotten in 7 years. Something about playing 250 shows a year does that, "I guess." In fact, I bought this camera at our candy land, B&H in NYC a few days after I drove through an icy blizzard Annapolis MD to visit my eldest brother who's an amazing chef and take him m to his first Samantha Fish show, my 23rd, in December of 2017.
The problem is if I shoot multiple frames and I think I'm holding down the shutter to do so, the first pic has proper lighting, the second pic is really dark, the third pic has proper lighting, the 4th pic is really dark. Any idea as to the reason and how to avoid it? You know how it is, sometimes a tenth of a second makes a hell of a difference Ina shot. Thank you! (My D80's 3 FPS got too slow for me. I still owe it and am a lot better on it because it was a natural progression from a SLR to DLSR. I bought it because dad has always had a Nikon FG. My D80 has a 18-55, a 55-200, and a straight 50mm f1.4.)
I just subscribed and pla on getting back into this passion instead of getting frustrated at every other concert I go to. That and take my camera out at least twice a week with a notebook to get better as I've never taken a photography class but always wanted to. (Of course the 1 photography class my CC offered was at the same time as the AutoCAD class I took to relearn it 9 yrs ago.🙄
Great review!!! Thanks.
Man, that cleared things up. thanks !
great review Ted :D
Good review. Practical and helpful info. Thumbs up =)
I've been waiting for a camera like this! I need my B camera to be the GX850! Before I go out and get one I will try it of course but with my GH4 as my A cam this would make a great B cam for my upcoming travel.
I bought this camera for my UA-cam channel (different account) about a week ago, and I was a little apprehensive because you hadn't done a review on it yet. I've really been surprised at the quality, and love that I can pair it with my 20mm 1.7 lens for videos. Thanks for the review, it was a confirmation that I made the right decision! I love your reviews and trust your opinion more than any other videographer on UA-cam!
Could you tell me your channel so I can look at the videos? What problems have you had with this camera?
Great review. I'm scouting around for a light setup for use in making videos. The interchangeable lenses seem tempting but the lack of stabilization in-body makes me wanna go for your RX100V sparrow rig instead
Awesome videos like always. Which camera are you using I love the resolution. Also, what editing software do you use?
Great review
Very smart content. Thank you.
Just awesome review sir. One question: no problems with the shutter speed during video recording?
Thanks for a good Review.I wonder if there is any problem with overheating shooting video HD 1080?
Always thank you for great videos! Can I ask how the stabilization works? I’m considering it with canon g7x mk2 and panasonic lx10🤔
Love your reviews and all videos. Great job and very well done. Just a comment : I've seen that the EURO version is DMC-GX800 and with 12-32 kit, it cost 549€ ! Thanks a lot and Keep it up
High five Ted....thanks for the great review.
Another great review! just a quick questions when you show your footage of the 12mm 1.4 with the 3 stop ND filter, do you use a variable or is that a standard one? Just wondering as I am going to use that lens and the gh5 for Vloging but I always get those x shadows on the my tiffen vari ND. thanks!
thanks for all your videos that are very helpful. Im traveling often and i need a light and compact camera for street photografy for both photos and videos that can take sharp pictures and video in 1080 60p which camera you recommend Panasonic GX-800 or Panasonic Lumix DMC-GX80?
Great review! Just one imprtant Q: Is ist possible to switch focus points through the touchscreen while doing live video recording?
thanks for the nice review. Do you know if it has the same shutter mechanism as is found on the gx85?
thank you for the video. should be good enought for my need. But i would like to know how it stands against the Yi M1? If it's possible for you to compare them for video, it would be extremly appreciated.
im such an amateur im buying the camera just bc it has a real cute pink version of it but i found this review really helpful GOD BLESS
Great review. Great little camera. I have one that I use for stills. And it shoots in RAW. One frustration is that the 4K button is too close to the shutter button. It is too easy to accidentally switch into 4K burst mode which records one second of mp4 video. This mode is designed so you can go back and save the best frame from the video, but it does does not allow for capturing the image in RAW. Other than that, it is a great little camera that does a whole lot of things.
thanks for the review. one question, does there face detection not work if you hold the camera upside down with the screen flipped up?
Thanks for the review. So, was the AF supposed to fall down at 8:30 mark? Seemed to hold up fine.
great ... i agree. this cam is ever super
Just got this camera a few days ago :) shame that we can't get the all black version here in Australia. This is the best value camera currently available, coming in cheaper than the Sony RX100 III-V, yet packing a bigger sensor. I was initially hesitant because it didn't have an EVF, but I'm not a fan of their field sequential EVFs that they tend to implement on their smaller and rangefinder type cameras anyway. Thanks for your review in helping with the buying decision!
Hello Ted, what's your favorite small 4K video camera at the moment?
I'm currently using an LX100 ii but this is an intriguing alternative as a system camera. It's TINY!
I have the older previous model, the Pany GF7, and I really like it for travel. I'm wondering if the upgrade is worth it.
Hi Ted, one question. Did you manage to adjust the shutter speed, aperture and iso manually in video mode? I tried adjusting the photograhy mode dials but the video is not affected by the exposure settings I use. Please help. Thank you.
what camera are you using to shoot this video? the contrast is amazing.
Would you recommend this or the lx10 for concert photography which doesn't allow big dslr
first of all ,great review .Also do you think this camera could be considered panasonic substitute to panasonic dmc-gm5? I was searching for something pocketable to have always with me but at the same time also versatile .I stumbled upon the panasonic gm5 but right now it is a two years old camera and I don't think it is worth it anymore.Do you think this would be a good choice ?
Hi wonderful video. I have a question hope someone can help me out. I understand that you can only film 4k for 5 minutes but how about filming in 1080p? Is it still 5 minutes?
Great review, the no mic input is a bummer sadly.
Hi Ted, Could you tell us, what is the cool down period, after 5 minutes videoing?
Hi Ted! Would you say that this camera is good for live-streaming?
Do you also experience overheating issues even when shooting 1080p 60fps?
Hi, is there a true difference with the GX80/85 ?
I need an Hybrid for Road trip. Which one do u recommend ? actually i'm leaning toward Canon G7x Mark ii
(i don't really need 4k)
Hi i was excited for this until the limit on 4k 5 min recording.. can you recommend a camera that is mirrorless, has a flip screen, and can record way longer than 5 min on 4k? I would really love to know.
Is the movie recording limit is only the 4K ? Can you get more than 5min on HD ?
I'd love to hear your thoughts on the Nikon 1 J5... Looking at the numbers, it seems to be one of the best cameras for the price, but sometimes numbers lie.
Which lense are you using in the vlogging part of the video? the 12 mm 1.4 lense, can you give me a link? (I dont really know a lot about cameras) but by adding the 12 mm 1.4 lense you get the blurry background?
how does this gf9 compared with the canon m100? very similar size and specs despite no 4k
The video quality, though. For its size and current price, it is a steal.
Hi Ted! Thanks for the review. I have a doubt: I'm considering the GX850 and the ZS100. I've got a LX100 and a RX100 (Mk I). I've found I miss a touch screen to select the focus point (even never hading a camera with such a feature :) ). I've also found I miss a longer focal distance for filming the Kids at school play, for example. I like the idea of having a ZS100 for its compactness and versatility of its lens. However, I love the m4/3 sensor of my LX100, and I think the one on GX850 would be at least as good as it. But I don't like the idea of being limited to 5min 4k video. Having said (written) all that, what would you suggest me? Thanks a lot! Regards!
I wasted so much time watching other reviews of this camera that took a lot more time to tell me a lot less than yours. Thanks for this video.
What camera did you use for this video? Thanks
Does that 5minute limit still kick in if you're recording one an external device from the HDMI ?
sir, what is the view cam you use to shoot this video ? I am viewing 1440p and its just unbelievable clean and clear … my god that looks just like ultra sharp video.. just like a pro photo shooting
Do you think it's better than the canon g7xII or sony rx100?
I would love to see this compared to the new FZ80 by Panasonic. I know they are a different form factor and almost completely different technologies as one is a fixed lens and one Micro 4/3rds switchable lenses. Fixed LCD vs Swivel LCD. But are the features better or worse. Was the size an issue? Thanks for your review as it helps me to understand if this camera will fit my needs.
Is there a crop factor when shooting 4k video like there is with the GH4?
Can I record 1080P video at 60FPS up to 30min without overheating? Thanks
does it crop in 4k mode? will it use the entire sensor or a part of it?
I have the G85 that I shoot with Leica 12-15-25-42.5 primes. It's been quite the amazing surprise. The color rendition of Lumix cameras have definitely come of age, drastically more punchy than the gx8 even.
Considering that the output is based on the platform of the g85, I noticed that it also does meter a bit "hot" as you so mentioned. I've also noticed that the highlight recovery on the RAW files has been perhaps quite pleasing as the rolloffs are quite smooth and you can indeed recover a drastic amount of highlights even when I compare this to my Fullframe D750 which tends to favour shadow detail over highlight details. Trust the raws ;)
Radically different analog signal to digital converter between both cameras. Thx for pointing it out mate.
Hi ! I'm having a really hard time making a decision between just getting a flagship phone to record my youtube videos or just sticking with my samsung s6 and buying a separate dedicated camera for my videos. I personally have no issues with my phone so the upgrade to a flagship phone isn't really too necessary. Just wondering whether the differences between the flagship phones right now and their cameras will be noticeable. Also.. is there any particular camera you'd recommend under 500 dollars? thanks in advance!
It has 4/3" sensor, and m4/3 mount.... ;)
The same 4/3" sensor has been used since 2009 when Olympus released E-1 DSLR. Mount just got changed from 4/3 to m4/3 (and it is btw same mount as Olympus OM-mount, but just smaller).
Can you charge the camera while filming with usb port?
Anyone know how long can record this camera without full HD?
I was going to buy this or the GF8 for vlogging on UA-cam, but maybe I should take in consideration the Canon Emos10. Can somebody give me an advice?
Alas, with the GH5 Panasonic said at the CES that they have no intention going to phase detection. They prefer to improve DFD. Maybe it's better on their flagship camera, and that will filter down over time
can you shoot v-log uusing this camera?
How does this compare to the a5100 in your opinion?
Does this camera have the same soft shutter as the GX85?
Is it worth it to buy as a beginner in the world of photography/cinematography in terms of price point? Thanks
It sounds to me like your Ansco box camera has a shutter speed of 0.182857 sec. Could you verify that for me with some high speed? Just wondering if I was right.
Can I squeeze this into a smoothQ gimbal?
hi,
What would you recommend to be a good camera for use with video primarily if this one is only good for a b camera. Im looking at the panasonic G7 price range. I'm a training videographer and have an fz300 but sensor too small.Thanks love the vids.
G85 is your game
is it the same as the dc-gx800 (UK)?
If record in 1080 60p also gt time limit?
I love the small details here and there in your reviews...makes it more viable for most if us I guess. Keep creating.
Can this camera be used as a webcam on desktop computers?
Comparing to g85 which is better?
Always good reviews and perspective on this channel. Thank you. Not a fan of this camera. The kit lens is crap IMO. I mean it's average at best. IF you went with the RX100 M3 or M4, the lens is faster and eventhough there's a 1" sensor it is 20MP. Comparable photos. Now the Pany gives you the option to change lenses. However once you put a higher quality prime the price will go up fast and then you can start looking at a whole bunch of other smaller camera options. To each his own.
called GF9 in my country, Japan
Se puede hacer streaming con esta camara?
but no evf//how do you focus a manual lens in sunlight?
Nice video. What Manuel controls does this camera have ? Like shutter speed for video or like other panasonic cameras cinelike d or any sharpness contrast color adjustments no one seems to mention this thank you. I also got the pansonic g7 for around the same price of this iam just trying to lighten my pack on long mountain bike rides lol.
Unfortunately no manual control for video, everything is automatic. You can however choose the exposure but before you click record.
Does it have internal 5 axis IBIS?
Is it true that this camera over heats?
When the 5D Mark IV arrived it seemed everyone was complaining about the crop factor when shooting 4K. Now it seems everyone is no longer bothered by the small micro 4/3s sensors. (???)
Since I went to full-frame I use it all the time, unless I'm forced to go back to the APS-C. But so far that hasn't happened, yet.
BTW--> It may be time to change your furnace filter. :-)
GX850 or M50? Which do you think is the better buy?
