Panasonic Lumix DMC-GX85 Mirrorless MFT (Micro Four Thirds) Camera Body, Silver {16MP}

The Lumix DMC-GX85 is a compact and capable Micro Four Thirds format mirrorless digital camera by Panasonic.  Not to be confused with the more bulbous SLR styled Lumix DMC-G85, the Lumix DMC-GX85 has a slimmer form factor with a clean flat top and lines inspired by rangefinder style cameras.  Designed for photography enthusiasts, the GX85 is a a delightful image maker with novel tools that make excellent photography fun and easier than ever before.

The GX85 has a 16MP image sensor, that unlike previous models doesn't use an AA (Anti-Aliasing) optical low pass filter.  By skipping the AA filter, additional fine detail is preserved for maximum sharpness.  The new sensor also takes sharpness protection to a new dimension with 5-Axis Sensor Shift I.S. (Image Stabilization) which also works with any lens (including use in conjunction with Optically stabilized lenses in a Dual I.S. configuration).

Extra clarity extends to videography as well where the camera offers 4K resolution at 30 and 24 frames per second.  The DMC-GX85's 4K power extends still photography too where 4K burst options can pull still images while recording 4K video at 30 fps in high resolution.  The GX85 also offers a 8MP 4k 'Pre-Burst' photo mode that continuously buffers images and records 30 frames from the second before the shutter released is pressed and 30 frames from the second after the button is pressed; you'll never miss a moment again.  There's also a Post Focus mode that makes selection of a focus bracketed burst a breeze on the large tilting touchscreen.

With a huge lineup from the Lumix G DSLM system, the Lumix GX85 is compatible with over 20 interchangeable Panasonic lenses.  When used with Panasonic lenses, the GX85 employs Depth-From-Defocus (DFD) Auto Focus (AF) technology to quickly brings the subject into focus.  The camera can process full resolution 16MP images with Continuous Auto Focus (AFC) at up to 6 frames per second (up to 10 fps without CAF).  Panasonic also added Low Light Auto Focus (Starlight AF) to accurately focus at -4EV low light situations and beautifully capture the night sky.

The durable GX85 body features an intuitive dial for selecting shooting modes along with well laid out and re-configurable buttons for quick access to commonly used settings.  The Panasonic Lumix DMC-GX85 also features brilliant viewing through the high resolution 2,760k-dot resolution tilting Live Viewfinder at 0.7x magnification or via the 3.0" 1040k-dot rear, tilting, touch-screen LCD monitor.  The rear monitor's tilting design allows viewing from a wide range of high and low angles for added creativity and convenience.  Using the touch control, focus simply by touching the subject on the screen.
