Panasonic DMC-GX80 Kit 14-140

Wide angle

Solid case made of metal and high-quality plastic. Of course there is dust and water resistance. Management is thoughtful and convenient, after Canon I had to get used to it again, but in general the difference is not fundamental. The display is touch sensitive, swivel in the longitudinal plane, of good brightness and with pleasant tilt angles. It has a high-resolution 16 megapixel matrix and, very importantly, the low-pass filter has been removed. This filter is installed on almost all cameras to prevent the problem of moiré, but it also reduces detail. So in this camera, the picture when shooting comes out surprisingly clear. The special five-axis stabilization of the matrix also helps this. Here I must say honestly - I was stunned by her work. I did not even expect to see such a high-quality vibration smoothing, the results are amazing. Now my trembling hands won't ruin anything. By the way, advanced stabilization also works when shooting video, and the video here turns out to be very beautiful. FHD-resolution videos can be created with a frame rate of 60, with a UHD picture - 30. I still have nothing to watch UHD, but such TVs already cost quite sane money, so I might buy one in time. Supports high speed SDXC UHS-I memory cards. Well, built-in WiFi is also available, where without it.

Unlike SLR cameras, it is small and can fit in the pocket of outerwear. Together with the battery, it weighs a little more than 400 grams, which is a lot. But, again, comparing with a DSLR, the savings are at least one and a half to two times. Behind the camera is a large and high-resolution touch screen. It rotates vertically, is bright and has excellent viewing angles. The matrix in the device is large, 3/4 inches and 16MP. This allows you not only to shoot 4592 by 3448 frames, but also record a fairly high-quality 4k video. However, I still have nowhere to watch it fully. At home there are two ordinary 1080p screens (TV and monitor), but you won’t see all the delights of 2160p on them. In short, the matrix is large and gives little noise at high ISO. Even at 3200 you can shoot without any fear, the noise is already manifested above. There is a small retractable flash. The complete lens is not bad, first of all, with a short focus, compactness and low weight. The optical stabilizer is great, works great. The lithium-ion battery of the camera is charged by microUSB, that is, you can take a power bank with you and recharge.
