Our friend Gordon from CameraLabs posted the full Panasonic GX80/85 review:

The fact is there’s little to complain about here and a great deal to like – especially when you consider its affordable price. If you’re looking for a mid-range interchangeable lens camera, there’s little that’ll match its overall feature-set and performance for the money. I really feel Panasonic has its mojo back here and I’m happy to award it my Highly Recommended rating. I’ll be even happier to see the upgrades rolled-out to its humped models, the G7 and GH4.

DIY ND Filter Holder for Wide Angle Lenses Demo with Panasonic 7-14mm

Laurent:I went to Yodobashi Camera Kyoto this morning, and played (a bit) with the new GX7 Mark II. Unlike previous Lumix camera, that came with a Japanese-only
interface/menu, the GX7 Mark II is multilingual : Japanese, English, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese. Unless I’m wrong, it’s the first time Panasonic Japan offers a Lumix with multilingual menu since the GM1S.

Lorenzo:I have just completed my latest documentary, Living the Weather. It is composed of 5 chapters on weather and seasons in a West Yorkshire valley. I filmed it in 4K with a Panasonic GH4 and Olympus and Panasonic lenses. It features 5x 5 minute sequence shots made with DJI Ronin M and Olympus 7-14/2.8 at its widest.
