Review Summary

2021-09-30T09:25:23

Rated 5 out of 5

Whole lot of camera for the $

Have a lot to learn coming from the G85 but so far really impressed. Haven't played enough to understand full pros and cons, but happy to have a camera that can use my previous lenses. Have used it on several excursions primarily for video recording. Really glad they had the ISO100 option - forgot my nd filters..

Out the box

Thus far this camera has taken amazing photos but I didn't buy it for that. I haven't filmed anything but I will soon.

Whole lot of camera for the $

By LORA J.

Have a lot to learn coming from the G85 but so far really impressed. Haven't played enough to understand full pros and cons, but happy to have a camera that can use my previous lenses. Have used it on several excursions primarily for video recording. Really glad they had the ISO100 option - forgot my nd filters..
