Sony and Fuji are the only innovations this year at photokina? If they count as innovations, then there were a lot more.

Or their business structure is completely different with different overheads etc. they've also spent the last 8 years developing and marketing the system. Look at either companies financial reports...

I don't have my camera handy with me right now, but I'm pretty sure you can change the order of shots in Focus Bracketing just like you can the order of exposures in Exposure Bracketing. There is ...

Agentlossing: My experience also. And with telephoto lenses I found the Olympus to be worse than the GX85.

Do you know in MF mode, you can easily override and acquire AF focus? There is an AF button on the touch screen.

Mike FL, how did you arrive at the conclusion that the EM5mk2 offers a full stop more advantage than the GX85 for IBIS? Would love to see a thorough comparison. My experience with both so far has...

Sorry I wasn't clearer, I was stating that 5-axis DOES work in 4K video with ANY lens. I took the article to suggest it only worked when paired with a Panasonic IS lens which is incorrect.

Really?
Body only is available in my country, didn't realise it wasn't everywhere.

Maybe it's the way I'm interpreting it in the summary, but just wanted to be clear that 5-axis stabilization works in 4K video with any lens. Not just the Panasonic dual IS lenses.

I think it's a...

Correct! I stopped the camera at 46 minutes because I ran out of time to keep recording. I was simply confirming there was no 29.59 limitation.

I tried one and recorded for 46 mins. So yep, I'm sure.

Yeah you're probably right that the price would be close to negated, at least it gives an option for EU users to get 25p and no recording limit.

Just an FYI, If you want unlimited recording in Europe AND 25p, the Australian version gives you 25/24p and no record limit. Also a pretty competitive price.

That's correct, but for me in Australia it's 1/25. Multiples of the utility frequency.

I've tried the GX85 with the 14-140mm - I tried it at the culprit shutter speeds (1/80 - 1/320) and wasn't able to find any evidence in my shots of SS. For comparison, the exact same lens on a GX8 ...

I respectfully disagree. My experience has been different to yours, I feel as though my Power OIS lenses definitely do better than the Mega OIS lenses in terms of stabilisation. Also, FWIW I sat ...

Like you say there's been some demo units available and I managed to get one for a week to try from Panasonic. The firmware wasn't final, and I couldn't view the RAW's in Lightroom of course (but ...

You really shouldn't make assertions like this on something you clearly haven't tried. I've had more than 2000 shots with the GX85, and can say without doubt that there is a significant detail ...

Could you have been in 4K photo mode (pre-burst)? This mode can be quite slow to focus due to it technically recording 4K video even without pressing the shutter

Actually, GX7 didn't have a mic jack, so this has continued along this path.
