Paired with the Leica 15mm 1.7 is very underrated... I love this setup till today. I tend to bring this with me more than my S5 for trips. The image quality for this old camera along with the Lumix color science out of camera is something special.
Thanks Spencer, as someone who previously owned a GX85 and now a GX9, I love seeing what it can do in capable hand. Anyway, may I ask if you have a tip to nail white balance or do you just stick with sunlight?
I realize it's been a long time, but nowhere and no one is announcing important information. At least it is not obvious to me. Such a question, in what program you paint video (in this camera there is no logarithmic profile). Immediately in rec 709 and add everything to taste or somehow need to convert correctly?
I have the gx85 and I can never sell this camera. I honestly think it’s the best camera Panasonic has ever introduced. Yes it’s older but at its time. It was seriously underrated. Install a 14-140 lens and the 25mm leica lens and you’re set for amateur. I get compliments to this day with the photos I take with it.
What did you use to grind down the protruding element on the 24mm? This is an issue with my 20mm using a speedbooster and would be nice to be able to use it with it.
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.
i didnt know you can evolve GX85 like THIS so awesome!

Amazing result our of this small box. i m rediscovering the gx85 that i bought 7-8 years ago and really enjoy it. Your video brings more interest to the video part. Some of the links are not available anymore, could you give the references of the gears used. Also why is the 25mm your favorite lens (i have 20mm and 42.5 and contemplating the 25mm), is it still the 3 years later?
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.
Hi Spencer! Do you remember the picture profile/render settings you were using at this time? This is some of the cleanest pocket4k footage I've seen on here. Love that camera when it's shown correctly like this. Awesome stuff.
The Lumix GX85 is my first Camera and i love it. It has everything i need and so much more + it is really versatile for my needs. As far as i can say, i dont think i'll switch cameras any time soon.
Spencer, your videos and style are great. They're a good part of the reason I went with a gx85 and subsequently I'm turning into a gear addict. BUT I notice you haven't posted in over 2 years on RU-vid and your blog. Is there a chance to ever see more of your takes on the gx85 in the future? Sincerely, A big fan
Hey man. I love the way the color grade. Just a few questions. I am considering the S1 to mainly use with vintage glass. How is the focus peaking and general experience with vintage lenses? Also when I checked the DPreview studio comparison tool I did see that it has some weird color science when it comes to the RAW photos, it has that weird green tint on it. Did you experienced that? It seems like the S5 has a much nicer and different color science but everyone is saying they have the same....now I am very confused to say the least......
I have the lumix g9 but I have someone wanting to trade the gx85 w my lumix and I was considering the trade since the gx85 more smaller and seems like a perfect travel camera… you think I’d be losing by giving my lumix g9 for the gx85??
This is 3 years ago so I’m not sure theres going to be a reply. I’ve only had my Lumix gx85 for about 2-3 years now and I got a Ronin 3 mini and was wondering how you connected it to your gimbal if possible. I’m aware the camera has wifi but still can’t get it to connect to the gimbal.
It's ironic and evidence to your review that now, four years later, this camera is a lot more expensive on the used market than when you (and I) bought it used.
