Pros: Solid, tropicalized, stabilized sensor, wide choice of features, 4k photo and video quality, handy, versatile, broad range lenses System Micro 4/3 Panasonic and Olympus
Cons: Weight and size, for those looking for something more compact.
Opinion: I bought this car profiting from a great offer. I appreciate the solid consistency and the high construction standards. Big enough to be maneuverable between my hands (large) and small enough not to weigh. The menu is very intuitive and logical and coming from Canon I have not found more drawbacks. I appreciate the amount of programmable functions and easy access via 8 function keys scattered everywhere. Incredible to speed up work and shoot with action readiness. Exposure compensation selector Easy to reach, quick Area selector/MAF point size, dedicated video button can be deactivated, classic display programs plus three personal configurations, Oled and touch screen completely Tilting and orientable which can be closed and protected, connection for external microphone, solid body and resistant to splashes and dust, fast MAF with various configurations, sensor stabilizer on 4 axles in symbiosis with Panasonic OIS lenses, Possibility to process RAW images directly in the car. The M4/3 20MB sensor does a great job and the photo/video quality is very high, usable artistic filters (personally I use them very little except the B/w), 4k video, 4k photo sequence and really brilliant Post Focus function. Combined with the Leica Summilux 15/1.7, the images produced are excellent, with intense colours, detail and depth. The articulated EVF viewfinder is very convenient and detailed, also Oled quality, which allows you to manage image and functions without distractions. Perfect WiFi connection, with predisposed telephones you can connect directly to your mobile phone via NFC. In short, I am very satisfied, I think is an ideal machine for travel, reportage and street, still offered at an excellent price. Purchased in the black version passes easily unnoticed and allows discretion when necessary. I was undecided between the GX8 and the new GX9. This last seems to ape the fashion of the most compact machines, with small size and built-in flash (which I just do not appreciate), but I think it loses too much and gains very little compared to GX8. In this regard I leave this interesting comparison between the two models, remembering that unlike the GX9, the GX8 still maintains high its value, both new and used, index of a quality still very demanded among photographers who seek substance, quality of Results and robustness of use.
