- I wanted to share some of the images I've been able to capture over the last year with my GX85. I've felt that I've been slacking on sharing the video capabilities of this camera, so look no further. Drop what else you've been wanting to know about this camera or any tech questions, I'd love to help out!

Still love your videos on the Panasonic Camera's as a whole.
Dag I'm in love with a camera I haven't even held in my hands yet
HAHA! That's so awesome, that happens to me quite a bit with cameras. This camera is a gem for sure.
Ditto...
I have this camera and it’s sooo good for a reasonable and almost cheap price. The lenses are way cheaper too since it’s mft
I had this camera on my hit list for over a year but I lived somewhere where I couldn't buy it in a store and financially it was right on the edge of my budget. I tried to buy it online but the 'agency' told me a week and 6 weeks later I still had nothing so got my money back and bought a field recorder (I'm a musician) A year later I sold one of my guitars to have another go at buying it and found it second hand good as new locally with two lenses and nice bag so in the end it worked out well. I've always owned a camera being a trained artist and visual person though I am not a photographer professional, but the after owning two early Leica digital cameras the Lumix range was where I headed when Leica started making seriously expensive gear. The GF3 was nice but this GX85 is awesome. I am sure there are plenty of other great cameras that I never tried but I really love this little GX85. You won't be disappointed.
@@TheCompleteGuitarist wow you went on journey for the GX85. So happy you got it tho and in good condition! I'm sure the wait was rewarding :) I'm saving for it now and hope to have it by next year so I can get on Spencer's level lol this camera lives in my brain rent free, I think about it so much
It is 2022 and this camera still rocks. I can't believe I purchased mine for around $650 but that include the GX85, 3 lenses (the kit, the Lumix 14-140 F3.5-5.6 and the Leica DG Summilux 25mm F1.4, 3 batteries and a bag. I know there are new cameras out there but tell me where can I get that combo for that price. That's the amazing part of live in El Salvador here many people think that you get beautiful photos and videos just with a full frame.
Could you shoot sports photography
Considering the Summilux sells for around $300 used, I’d say you got an amazing deal.
This is fantastic, Spencer! Much love & appreciation, brother. Amazing footage! ☮️
Your channel and footage is gorgeous! Thank you so much for sharing and you've convinced me to get this camera!
very nice review, i appreciate that you stay calm and keep the sentences short and precise. its relaxing to watch.
Thank you for making this! Always produce awesome quality and amazing videos.
Ayy thanks brotha! Appreciate the love!
I bought this 4 years ago as a family cam and still love ❤️ to this day.
Thank you for this review and the tips
Really well done. Great videography and editing along with an articulate narrative. I appreciate your generous spirit relative to sharing your knowledge and information. Thank you!
Thanks so much for the kind words Phillip!
Was on the fence about what camera to get for my edc but man you've convinced me! What an excellent, beautiful review!
Thank you man for this honest and clear preview . This is the best review of gx85 !
Thank you so much Haiyum!!
Damn, the footage was dashing and gorgeous. I super love it. Thank you for sharing this video. Keep it up 💪
Haha that's awesome, I'm so glad you were stoked on it, I sure will!
I just got the gx85, and I came across this video on my recommended. Thank you so much for this video. I will definitely fall in love with this camera.
Awesome man! You're going to love this camera!
After watching many videos on cameras, specifically budget cameras, I came across the gx80/85 , which then led me to your video. I finally got it today with a used 25mm 1.7 on eBay all for £350 and watching your videos with this camera makes me excited to use it. I would love to see more videos on this camera on your channel such as editing the footage, your full settings for video, colour grading etc. Thank you for this video and keep it going. You’ve earned my sub!
That is so awesome to hear my man! Absolutely, that is the goal with this camera, is to highlight it. You are the man!
I have watched so many street photography videos on this camera that I had no idea how gorgeous the video files could be. Thank you, I have subbed.
3.5k subs? Dude the quality of the video is great. Concise and straight to the point, keep it up man abd best of luck
Thank you so much for the love my friend!
Thank you so much Spencer for all your videos regarding the GX85. I was struggling to decide between the Sony a6000, Lumix GF9 and Lumix GX85. I got all confusions cleared and now I've ordered my GX85.
Great clip man, insane production value wow. Thank you.
I just discovered you on RUclips ! You are nuts !
I'm a french amateur filmaker and i have the GX80, I hesitated for a long time to upgrade so now you convinced me to stay on this setup with your amazing shot !
To thank you for your work I bought your LUTS.
Victor! Thank you so much for picking up my LUTs, it means a lot! I hope you enjoy them and thanks you so much for the support.
Have watched your videos so many times on the subject of GX80/85.
I bought the camera and lens because of you. I wanted to say thank you and best regards from Germany.
Dude, great video! Just the review I needed, and the editing was perfect!
That makes me so happy man! I'm glad it's what you needed :)
Spencer Whiteman good dude! I know the feeling! It’s crazy motivating
receiving positive feedback on your content creation, I recently joined the RUclips game and am definitely going to take away things(stylistically) from your videos!
I found your videos when I bought the GX85 a couple of years ago, and I just came back before I bought the 25mm 1.7. Such a lovely camera, especially for people like me who only use it occasionally.
Thanks for giving us all the confidence we needed to make the purchase :)
I love to hear it Barton, thank you so much for the kind words my man!
If more productions, footage and hosts were this engaging, the world would be better off. Here's hoping to see more of you, dude-and thanks for convincing another one of us to go GX85.
Gorgeous footages from the small GX85!❤
Love this! Now I now I can use my GX85 more! You inspire me!
That's so awesome my brother! I'm glad this video could inspire you! :)
This one video has convinced me to get this camera. Also, thank you, thank you ,thank you! For showing footage in 1080 60P instead of just focusing solely on 4k like most people who get a 4k capable camera tend to do! They focus solely on 4k and don't even bother to show the other filming resolutions which is kind of off putting. When they do that basically just review only half of the product!
Good, honest, and convincing review based on actual use over a decent amount of time. Thanks!
Thank you for the kind words William!
You help choose the gx a few years ago for my Travels. just pulled it out of storage to use and i find myself back at your channel! i gotta catch up on your vids. I remember i loved your vid style
So lovely!! Great skills and edit!
Thank you Yoshiki!!!
I love using this camera man, it's the PERFECT second camera. Stripped back and simple.
Beautiful shots, great editing and you seem very likeable and genuine. Instant sub. Peace.
I was shocked when I saw you only have ~600 subscribers. This is an amazingly beautiful video. Your channel is definitely gonna take off! Looking to get a cheapish camera and I'm amazed you produced results like this with something this inexpensive.
Thank you so much man!!! If you end up going with this camera, you'll love it. Another alternative option is the G85 as well if you want to use a mic with your system.
Same
thats what im saying man! I thought this guy had like 500k or something!
I really appreciate this video and the fact that you included so many great examples! Totally underrated camera. I got mine in 2018 for a steal of a price and it hasn't let me down. I own a GH5 and S5 and I keep coming back to this little powerhouse of a camera for those random little adventures.
Awesome video! 🥲 EXTREMELY beautiful content. Just purchased mine and am looking forward to working with it. Thank you 🙏🏾
man this is incredible the first video on my channel was shot on this camera in 2018 now union almost filmmaker and actor Im coming back to my true love!! Super inspiring video
Deserves more subscribers for sure. Subscribed. Ive been using GX85 for couple years and I have no reason to upgrade. Such a nice Camera!
Thank you so much for the sub and kind words brother!
What a grand little video this is. Keep up the good work man :)
Thank you so much my friend! :)
I just placed an order today because of your outstanding video, Thank you for the review ♥️😁
Subbed
Oh man that is awesome! I'm so glad my video could help you with your purchase, let me know how you like it!
Spencer, thanks a lot for this review! Helped me and I appreciate your ideas and inspiration.
That is so great to hear Nick, thanks for the love!
My god what a beautiful video, I've been watching some reviews of this camera and the fact that doesn't have mic input was kind of a deal breaker, but now watching your video and all that footage I thing I'll buy it.
Haha that is awesome! I was nervous about that too but the con is far outweighed by the images that can come out of this camera!
I've had my GX85 for about 3yrs and I think it's one of the best cameras I've ever owned. My 'work' camera is a BMPCC4K because I need the BRAW workflow. But I'm yet to film anything on it that makes my heart sing in the same way the GX85 does. I bought it as a toy and it's proven itself to be so much more.
Beautiful footage, Spencer. You have a lot of talent.
Nathanael, your words mean a ton, thank you!
perfect! I had this camera just while ago and it's nice to see this kind of video!
Thanks Severus!
Very true, for the money along with portability it can’t be beat.
3:08 Was feeling a little bored of my GX85 until I realized the footage you took was with the lenses I use the most. Motivation, thanks!
I absolutely love your 8 bit footage taken with the Panasonic GX85.
Thank you my man! It's figuring out the breaking line, which is surprisingly pretty far, which is awesome lol!
Nicely done. I enjoyed the images -- you displayed plenty of skill in your presentation, and thanks for sharing your perspective.
Thank you so much my friend!
Great shots dude. Looks better than a lot of more expensive cameras Ive seen
Thank you so much man! It's definitely capable of producing beautiful images. I feel like people sometimes have a hard time working with the footage to get it to that point.
I saw this camera on fb market place thinking nothing of it, came to do some research and found this video and i got to say I'm really impressed!!
Well, you're the blogger I wanna watch. Make more videos with reviews, tip and tricks and so on! =) Love your style.
Haha thank you so much my man, I really appreciate the kind words!
It's a fantastic little camera. I just picked up a couple of them in May along with some G80s (which is essentially the same thing, but with a flippy out LCD, a mic socket and Cinelike D without having to hack the firmware, heh) just for video. I can film probably 95% of the stuff I'll ever need to shoot with those cameras.
Great review Spencer, well done Brother!
I have the GX85, but I haven’t used it to its full potential so watching your videos is very helpful. Thank you!
That's awesome to hear Korina! There's a select few who I've been watching that are able to get a beautiful image out of this camera, there's lots of potential that's there but doesn't get tapped into much!
Spencer Whiteman I agree, not very many. Have you seen Micro Four Nerds videos about the GX85? She takes amazing photos and videos with the camera.
Prefect example on how a camera review soul is be 🔥. This is Amazing
You have the best choice in music. And epiccc shots
Cinematography skills on point!
Thank you so much!!!
this video makes me fall back in love again with the film industry hahah
Great video, thanks for sharing. I recently ordered a GX85 as a compliment to my G9. I have a GX1 with EVF for travel that has worked well over the years but the dynamic range is very poor and lack of IBIS cost me some city night shots on a few occasions. I'm really looking forward to using the GX85, 12-32, 35-100, and 20 f/1.7 on a few trips.
Great video and footage. I use my GX85 for street photography. After watching your video I'm going to try more videography with it. Thanks much!
super nice, high quality and helpful video, thank you so much!!
Samuel thank you so much for the support and love, I appreciate it!
I've looked at a dozen gh6 videos and about the same on this camera and...this just looks more organic and beautiful to me. Thanks for this engaging video.
Thank you so much Len! I have to agree, I do think this footage looks better than a lot of the GH6 footage out there. I will say, I feel like many out there with the GH6 don't know how to extract the proper image out of it, and preserve it all the way through post. Some shoot at strange settings, with super sharp glass with no filtration. Some may butcher the colour grade as well. I think the camera needs to be in the right hands for us to all appreciate the GH6.
@@SpencerWhiteman You're right, I am seeing the gh6 capabilities more and more and saying...wow that's nice. But your video still stands up.
your content is so powerful. please keep doing this!
Thank you so much my friend!
Great work as always... It's a great B-cam to the GH5 (which is why I originally bought it); the colors match up, same basic menus system, same lenses, yada. I also now use it for walk around/family photos and videos because of its minimal size, ease of use, and great image. The battery life on this camera is also shockingly good considering the small size of the battery. Used, it might be the best steal of deal going.
That’s one of the main reasons why I bought it as well, to match up with my Gh5. It’s an absolute steal.
If only it had a mic input. Well, I guess we can't have everything....
Beautiful shots mate! I love the gx80 + 25mm f1.7 Combination. Exceptional quality for the money! I am considering to upgrade to the g9, but I will never sell my gx80 ❤️
Absolutely! I hear the G9 is a beautiful camera, a great compliment and/or A cam to the GX80!
Amazing Video, Love it. GJ Man
GX85 was my first MFT camera. It's insanely good for video, but I used to struggle with stills (particularly for any cropping or reframing). Nevertheless, it's the best travel hybrid camera I can think of, particularly thanks to the convenience of MFT lens size and weight. I loved your footage with it. Look forward to more of what you've shot with it :)
It's definitely Video first for me, but I still love the stills I get with it, that's actually the reason I bought it in the first place, thank you!
Nice channel. I love my gx85 and use exactly the 2 lenses you were talking about. Subscribed, greetings from germany
Outside of action cam footage on my hikes, I never shoot video but my god, you are wonderfully skilled. Nothing reiterates the point that yes, the camera does matter but who is using it matters a hell of a lot more. I also use MFT, the Em1 Mark III to be precise but I do strictly photography with about 75% of it being wildlife. However, I’ve never felt as inclined to try and shoot video the next time I’m out as I have after watching what you have done. It truly is impressive because not only does it serve as a testament to your art but it also props up the MFT segment which so often, albeit ignorantly, gets ridiculed.
Haha thank you so much Johnny!!!! Your words mean a lot, I really appreciate it!
You did some very beautiful shots
I came for the camera review and i subscribed for the content. Beautiful images.
Thank you so much for the love man, I appreciate it!
I have been shopping used compact mirrorless cameras for a bit, and after previously deciding to go for an MFT camera, this made me decide to definitely go with a GX85. Thanks!
That is so awesome to hear man, glad this could help!
Thank you my friend...I am looking for a camera for daily use. I find your videos and thank you for your efforts. I am going to buy a GX85 soon in 2023.
Thank you for the video.
Thanks for the video Spencer, a strong reminder that it is not always the gear but how we use what we have. I had the GX85 but upgraded to the GX9. Yes, it's an upgrade in every sense but part of me always miss the simple charm of GX85.
Love your work Spencer! Where did you learn this minimalist approach to photography? Genius. 🎥🔥
Thank you so much Andrea! I'd probably have to give it to the influence of the online film (photo) communities over the years. I love the way I'm able to work with this minimal approach :)
A really nice bonus on the US models is unlimited time 4K shooting. No 30 minute limit!!!! I have seven of these I use at dog sports events, where I set them up and let them run continuously for several hours (with a battery adapter and external pack). Just make sure you pop the screen out to help keep it cool - they're pretty unhappy if it's over ~85°F.
Lovely footage from your GX85, really impressive.
I have two GX80's (which are the same camera in it's European version as far as I'm aware) - I wanted to get a GH5 and use the GX80 as a secondary camera but money was tight so I got a second hand GX80 instead. I'd love to have an external audio input, that's probably the only significant thing the camera is lacking for me but I can live without and work round it by using a separate audio recorder if I need great sound.
I've been meaning to subscribe to your channel, so I've now done that :-)
Agree.. an audio input would make this more legit cam for video, but it is a nice budget option.
First of all, AMAZING FOOTAGE ! I'm really impressed you got that quality footage from those lenses, I have both of them, I don't own this camera but I'm looking to get one as a B camera for my G9, and to be honest, your footage looks better than what I've captured with my G9+sigma 18-35 :( anyways amazing work man ! I think I WILL get one !
That is amazing man! I'm glad I saw this comment right after you let me know that you bought one on my other gx85 video haha! You're going to love the camera, it's just so easy to pick up and start shooting with it everyday!
@@SpencerWhiteman that's exactly what I'm excited for ! Looking forward to your videos !
Lovely footage Spencer. I confess I am a little shocked that it was taken with those 2 lenses even though I know they were "decent" lenses.
I just bought this camera, excited to try it out!! :D
How do you like it ? : )
great vid, nice editing skills sir!
Thank you Adrian!!!
Dude! Killer vid! Thanks for making it.
Thanks brother! Love your work on Kinotika!
@@SpencerWhiteman heck ya! a fan eh? thanks bro! lol. watch this week... something big is happening!
@@davidaltizer Heck yeah eh! Haha no problem man. That sounds good I'll be sure to tune in!
Agreed.
Great video..👍
I've had this camera a few years now, I've looked around wondering whether to replace it, but there's so much included with this camera, that anything that even matches it is double the price..
It's great for video, and takes great sharp photos too.
I (like you) have kept to two lenses so far.. The 12-32 kit lens, which is compact, and sharp and of course has image stabilization as well as the body. Therefore doubling up stabilization and doing an awesome job.
(This camera was one of the very first Panasonic's to feature in body stabilization..)
Also, I have the Leica Summilux 15mm F1.7.
That's one of the sharpest and most beautiful lenses I've ever owned.
Is of course a 30mm equivalent. And when mounted on the GX80 / GX85 makes a fantastic street shooting set up. Small, discreet, sharp & powerful.
I've still not tried the 4K mode, or 4K photo mode or stop motion, or many other features.
One feature I must mention though is the in-camera timelapse feature..
It's absolutely stunning, and well worth a look...
If my camera broke for any reason I'd buy another one immediately....
I did try the GX9 briefly, but wasn't hugely impressed., Not much different, and the AWB was always wrong, compared to that on the GX80/GX85 which uncannily guesses correctly most of the time..
I do use Canon Full Frame for some work, but because I use the Panasonic so much more due to it's size and portability, I'd say that many of my favourite photos have come from the Panasonic.
It really is a gem of a camera..
Thank you Isle! That 15mm sounds lovely, I think that's a great focal length on M43 for street photography, perfect honestly lol. My go to is shooting 28mm on FF for street photography so it's right there basically. It sure is a gem!
Beautiful Film and Audio
Have both the GX85 and GX9. Both really do get the job done. I like the Leica 15mm f1.7, 25mm f 1.4, and the Leica 12-60 mm f2.8-3.5 zoom. I use the zoom on vacation and the others for street work. Great video and the tips are certainly worth giving a try.
Nice color tone! Keep it up man!
Thank you my brotha!
Man I almost cried 😂 best ad I've ever seen yo
Impressive footage!!!
It's beautifully done
Thank you Aimee!
You are a master or a master in the making. You have achieved such fine results with this underrated beast of a camera! I can't seem to get it right, would highly appreciate it if you could post some tutorials! Cheers :)
Get out of here! Thank you so much my friend, those words mean a lot. I'll be sure to post more content with the GX85, thank you!
@@SpencerWhiteman Pleasure is all mine! looking forward to any tutorials for beginners especially to achieve a fine look! :) cheers
I own a GH5 but I'm looking for a more portable version for traveling. It's crazy that this 4-year-old camera still is extremely competitive in the market. I wish they would have refresh it with phase detection and a screen that flips all the way above so I can film myself without having to pull out my smartphone to monitor what's in the frame.. but still with a few compact primes as the 20mm 1.7, 45mm 1.8 and the kit lens, this is a very compelling package.
Is it still worth it
dank, yeh its a lovely camera. user friendly w enuf advanced features to be versatile, fair price, some good lenses available. not so pricey where u worry about it taking damage. good all arounder
Amazing video!
Watching these videos, I definitively convinced myself to buy a used gx80 on eBay, as a second camera (main camera is Gh5). Surely the best compromise between quality, size and price.
Thanks a lot mate
Absolutely! It's a perfect little companion to the GH5, I bought one to parter up with my GH5 as well!
Dope footage!
Great footage! Just subscribed.
Now I want that camera for update videos thx for showing.😍
Of course Marii!
Dude,..this channel is awesome.. 👍👍
I imagine to buy a best budget camera that can shoot beautiful footage.. u inspire me, thanx a lot.. 🙏🙏
Thank you so much my friend, you can do a ton with budget cameras, people just don't take the time to do it since not many people talk about it!
Great video!
Love the buffalo Trace…great bourbon…..Great video, looking at purchasing the gx85 in 2021. I still think it’s a great camera for todays price
GX85 was my first camera, and I still believe it was the best bang for your buck for video, and surprisingly decent for photography too. Now I primarily use a GH5, but the GX85 is still a worthy b-cam, and matches pretty well. It also makes a great live streaming camera as well (using a dummy battery power adapter and an hdmi capture device).
Moon Think understand the GH5 have the improved 20megapixel sensor. Is the photo and video quality much improved over the GX85?
is the sony a6400 a better choice?
