LUMIX G85

Camera “phone” or if you have a budget g85 with mechanical lens for cheap. Medium budget Panasonic s5ii and a lens. Audio need shure 7mb or similar based on budget xlr is king. Good mixer so many options. Just make sure it’s 32 bit float. Helps in post Editing. Davinci…. That’s all you need!

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

EM5ii was one of my favorite cameras ever. Felt amazing in the hand, build quality was fantastic, one of the first with beautiful retro looks, and at the time just an overall great camera. Ever since that camera, the EM5/OM5’s have just felt like cheap little toys. That mixed with the lack of any ne

Yeah. I think if it wasn't for the GLARING compatibility issue, it'd probably be more palatable. But also have to consider the other issues mentioned like switching to a digital sensor loses all the film feel and his brother mentioning just going for a digital camera body and using the lenses you wa

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

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

50 mm point is valid but it doesn't really matter what the f stop is, it matters more about the focus distance from the subject, if you are focusing far away from the camera everything will be in focus, if you are focusing on something closer to the minimum focus distance then it will blow everythin

I got into M43 via the Panasonic G85, which remains one of the best photography values out there. I've owned the G9ii since it launched. Love it. It's been my workhorse, but I also own a number of tiny M43 bodies for run-and-gun work... the Lumix GM5 and the Olympus E-P5. One piece of advice: as the

my budget is really limited right now Without a budget we sadly can not help you. How much for all together, camera, lens, tripod, spare batteries and storage? Sony Alpha (I think the A7 IV), and that size and form factor Do you need realiable video autofocus yes or no? Thats a really important ques

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
