You can keep blaming DPR and it will NOT do you or Panasonic any good against $899 Fuji XT30 and $899 Sony A6400. With the G85 there was the possibility to buy body only, and that was just 100€/$/... less than the bundle so people ended up buying the bundle, resell the lens for 300 and get an instant rebate of 200 on the body. Thereâs built-in five-axis sensor-shift stabilisation which can work alongside the optical stabilisation of Dual IS lenses to deliver five stops of compensation, while burst shooting is rated at 6fps with continuous autofocus or 9fps without. It hunts like in the woods lol."Because high sensitivity performance is inherent to the sensor size. And the g85. Therefore, "no weather sealing" is not a con listed on every mid-range mirrorless camera (like the Gold-awarded X-T30 and A6400).That's not something we spotted.When shutter speeds are matched, the Sony a6400 has less noise, thanks to its larger sensor and lower base ISO.I am staying with Fuji until either Panny make a GM6 or Olmy makes a PM3, with 20Mp or higher megapixels. This is enough to make it an attractive enthusiast stills camera but a significant video crop undermines its video-making credentials.For those of us who do research and documentary video as well as stills, the unlimited recording time is crucial. I have difficulties with arthritis in my hands. $1200 * 1.5 = $1800...The 1.25 video crop in G90, like in GX8, instead of 1.1 video crop in the 16MP G80, is probably a hardware limitation of the 20MP sensor used, which is not the same as in G9 flagship.... to give you something to think about, because reality is a mean beast :-POut of curiosity, what body are you using it on?With the image quality of current cameras, the discussions about this are very theoretical. Im digitalkamera.de-Test muss die Panasonic Lumix DC-G9 nun zeigen, was sie im Labor und in der Praxis taugt und wie es um die Bildqualität der Micro-Four-Thirds-DSLM bestellt ist. And the CAF on the newer Panasonic bodies has improved greatly as well. I hear folks complaining about front/back focus issues all the time with PDAF only systems. Thereâs also a dedicated movie record button, as well as front finger and rear thumb control dials, the latter featuring a button in the middle that acts like a shift key to access alternative settings.Speaking of the battery, the camera is powered by the BLC12E pack rated at 1200mAh and quoted as delivering a fairly modest 290 images in normal operation or up to 1000 in a power saving mode.
@dpfan32 - the 20mm/1.7 doesn't quite reach the edge quality of the best zooms in the system like the 12-40/f2.8, but stopped down to f/4 it is close (within 10%)While I also initially suspected it had to do with Hybrid shutter, it's not the issue."It also costs hundreds of dollars more than its closest competitors".
Exciting times, indeed!What’s the best camera costing over $2000? Why mentioning it when it is m43s in virtually every single review out there but why not when it comes to APS-c cams? That's 50% more. However, its 4K capabilities remain lackluster, courtesy of that large crop.
