Re: Buyer's Regret: GX8

The reason this camera did not stay long in my kit is the ergonomics. I had no problems with any aspect of the picture quality.

However I found the handle uncomfortable due to its straight up and down, non anatomical shape, the thumb support inadequate and many of the controls poorly positioned for efficient operation.

BUT some users really like their GX8s so they are happy .

I find the G80/85 a much more user friendly camera, much easier to operate efficiently.

I am not the only one. The G80/85 got top billing in the recently published DPR roundup of ILCs in this price range.
