LUMIX G85

I think it goes without saying but you can only consider used gear for this budget range. If your budget of $400 must cover lens and body, you'll have to really economize. Here are some kit ideas to consider: BODIES (up to around $400): - Oly: EM5, EM5ii, EM1 - Panasonic: G85, G95 LENSES (up to arou

Panasonic Lumix G85 + 12-60mm f3.5-6.3 would have been also my first pick for OPs requirements.

Strongly seconding this, though I would recommend the Olympus 12-40 2.8 over the Panasonic 12-35 (which still is a great lens, mind) The Panasonic is smaller, but with a camera as big as the G9, the Olympus handles better in the hand imo It has somewhat better optical performance too which isn't a d

Great lens. I've got the exact combo you're thinking of (G85), and I got it thinking it would be my "starter" lens. But honestly... it often holds its own for street stuff against my two walkabout primes. Very convenient having the zoom when you need it too. If there's not much difference in perform

Here you go: My beloved Panasonic 14-140mm II f3.5-5.6 . The shoot-everything lens. Its surprisingly sharp and versatile for a superzoom. Good for pseudo macro, street, landscape, wildlife and more. Its the lens that's on my G9 or G85 unless I'm doing something specific. The overlap with the 100-300

I have some pretty good photos on a $400 used Panasonic Lumix G85 with a lens that runs about $400(100-300 Lumix) You won't get the best in the world photos, but you get a ton of range and a great camera for <$800. You don't need to have the best gear to do pretty well for yourself Also a lot of the

I Shoot full frame Cannon rf, crop rf, and all the Olympus em1 variants, as well as g85, g95, and I recently acquired a G9. I always wanted a G9. I can't say the autofocus is nearly as sticky as the pdaf in my Olympus gear for faster action, but I can tell you it is by far the most fun camera I've e

Panasonic g9, і відео 4k60p(хоч і 10хв) і по фото супер. Хват зручний. Lumix 25 хороший на свої гроші, 45 олік також. Маю ще 75, оце вже ванлав для портретів. Кітовий 12-60 ніби норм. І про 56мм також хороші відгуки. G85 я б не розглядав. G9/GH5(вони будуть на довго). І завжди вкладайтесь в обʼєктив

I'd go with an em 1.2 or 1.3. And either the Olympus 12-45 or 12-40 Pro zoom. If you don't mind a slower more variable aperture, you could also get the older and cheaper Olympus 12-50 that will give you a little more range at the cost of aperture and a little sharpness. You can easily get either of

Were ypu satisfied with your zoom range? If you were indeed satisfied then your best two options are the Sony RX10 mark iii (rx10 not rx100) and the Canon G3x. Both have the same 600mm equivalent reach of your fz200 but with the much larger type 1” sensor. If you’re ready to move past bridge superzo
