  • Specs don't tell the whole story, because the Panasonic Lumix GX850 is a very capable little camera that is not just for beginner photographer, but also for anyone looking for a small capable Micro Four Thirds camera for photography.
    The Lumix GX850 / GF9 is a small Micro 4/3 camera launched in 2017 as a beginner camera. I bought it a few months ago as a secondary body for travel, but it quickly becomes my preferred camera not just for travel but also for everyday photography, landscape photography, portrait, street photography, and also for recording B roll videos.
    The camera is surprisingly very enjoyable to use and can produce very nice images. Watch the video to learn more about the GX850 and decide whether this camera is the right camera for you or not.

    I bought a GX880 and GX850 recently, I love them lol. I had a GX85 but actually sold it, I didn’t like the feel as much. Totally personal reason though, it is a great camera. I just felt more creative with my GX880, that made me get the Gx850 after selling the gx85. I have the 42.5mm 1.2 and 15 1.7 for them. I’m so glad to see you enjoy the larger lenses too, honestly the nocticron feels perfect on it even if big. I love the absurdity of it, it actually handles super well. Plus I get OIS with it!

    I am regretting selling Lumix GM1, which is even lighter and smaller. But GF9 is internally same they only added that rotating screen, which really helps with shots at ground level. But, I prefer lenses with manual focus/aperture/zoom, kinda adds that feel of "making shot"

    I had the GX880 and sold it. Bought a GX800 and broke it; then I bought another GX800. I only with it had better control in video mode. You can shoot manual but only at 30fps (4k photo mode); otherwise, there a bit of guessing. Also, the 1080p often has moiré. Still, it's one of the most fun cameras I've owned (and I've had many).

    Hello Gary, I agree 100%. I bought my GX850 last year in addition to my G90 and intentionally with less performance compared to my G90. I also bought the Lumix 12-32mm and the Lumix 35-100mm. I immediately felt in love with this tiny and versatile set. I like to use it for street photography and honestly I'm using it more than my G90 set at the moment. But the best thing is, that I can combine all my lenses and camera bodies, which gives me so many options 😁

    Good video, Gary! As ever, your best camera is the one you have with you. Keep it simple, grab the moment. My EM-10 with the kit pancake zoom fits in a coat pocket, spare prime in the other. Better IQ than my smartphone and a whole lot more fun. And much better IQ than a Pro rig that's at home....As you say, can be addictive.

    Gary, I love your videos. They are always insightful and are brought down to an easy to understand level. I wanted to ask you a question. What bag would you recommend?? I use Olympus em10 Mark IV and Olympus Pen cameras. I would like the bag to be very portable because all it has to do is hold one or two cameras and an extra lens. Thanks in advance for your answer.

    • @Gary_W
      @Gary_W  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you for the kind comment! I do use sling bags mostly, they aren't even camera bags. My current everyday camera bag is the Alpaka Bravo Sling Mini V2. It's not too big but it can hold both the GX850 and the Leica M8.2 with 3 lenses (2 already attached), together with the DJI Osmo Pocket 3, and some extra batteries just fine. It is not padded, so you have to be careful not to throw or drop the bags.
      If you want dedicated camera bag with plenty of paddings and proper divider, I recommend either ONA Bowery or Billingham Hadley Small. They are a bit pricier but they are extremely well built, both of them are now more than 11 years old and still going strong.

      I used to own E-PL6 too, was a great camera, I regret selling it to be honest but I am more than happy with my current setup now.

    Actually, there are manual movie modes. It's called 4k photo. Specifically, the S/S option where you start and stop by pressing the shutter. Just remember to change the aspect ratio. It's limited to 5min clip length, and it cannot be played back in camera as a video. Not very convenient, but it's there.
    I sold both my LX10 & GX9 last year, and got a G9 and a GX850/GF9. I find I actually use the GX850 more because it's much smaller and easier to carry around. I do miss the IBIS though, as I typically use it with one of my primes, none of them except the 42.5mm f1.7 has OIS.

    But it's really uncomfortable to hold because of its size and lack of a proper grip. I bought a half case for it and it helped a lot :)

    I'm planning a project "GF9 on steroids". Seal all seams with carbon fiber tape. Seal and lock the flash and flash-release button (I never got used to using it). Stick a cold shoe on the flash cover and insert the thumb grip there. Stick a large red button on the shutter. Silicone protective case. A protective glass and a folding screen hood (in case of bright sun). An aluminum handle from canon eos M 2. (For this you may have to work with a file and a drill, I'm not sure. But I've seen a photo that it works). BOOM! you have a small SUV. The entire setup should fit into the kangaroo's waist bag. Camera, two batteries. Lenses laowa17\pennie15 or pancake20mm (optional), then 12-32mm and 35-100mm. I can't imagine what kind of system will be able to provide such miniaturization with such quality. I will nostalgically remember my huge FF Canon backpack with 50mm and 75-200mm, but I will not go back to this...

    is it true that the display did not follow the adjustment when changing settings? I mean when you change the ISO settings the display should be darker or lighter and that display will show what the actual photo it's going to take.

    • @Gary_W
      @Gary_W  11 วันที่ผ่านมา

      There is a setting in the menu called "constant preview", you have to experiment with it so that the display will get darker or lighter according to the setting of the camera. Hope this helps!
