• Fantastic colours in video
• Easy to use

• Value for money

Cons

• Autofocus needs a next level improvement

Micro Four Thirds

One of the most important aspects of a camera is the size of its sensor. A larger sensor will capture more light, which results in improved low-light performance, dynamic range, and general image quality.lens mount

The more focus points the more flexibility in picking which part of the scene to focus on. They also give the image sensor a better probability in identifying the right area of the scene to focus on in more automatic modes.megapixels (main camera)

16 MP

16 MP

The number of megapixels determines the resolution of the images captured with the main camera. A higher megapixel count means that the camera is capable of capturing more details. However, the megapixel count is not the only important element determining the quality of an image.maximum ISO

3200 ISO

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Panasonic Lumix DMC-GX85)

With a higher light sensitivity (ISO level), the sensor absorbs more light. This can be used to capture moving objects using a fast shutter speed, or to take images in low light without using a flash.maximum expanded ISO

25600 ISO

25600 ISO

Expanded ISO allows you to go beyond the native ISO. It does this by digitally enhancing the image output. The resulting image will have less quality than when staying within the native ISO range, but it can be useful in certain situations.has sensor shift stabilization✔Panasonic Lumix DMC-G85✔Panasonic Lumix DMC-GX85With sensor shift, the image sensor (rather than the lens) moves to counterbalance any vibration of the camera.
