Comprehensive features and controls, Fast, flexible autofocus, Outstanding video mode
Image quality a little behind the front runners
The Panasonic G80 is pricier than the G7 was at launch, but this feels like a big step up with its weather sealing, bigger viewfinder, sensor-shift stabilisation and posher kit lens. Its price puts it somewhere between entry-level CSCs such as the Canon E...
Abstract: The Panasonic G80 is the seventh generation in a line of cameras that stretches back to the first ever compact system camera (CSC), the Panasonic G1.These models have risked getting a little lost in the Panasonic line-up, crowded out by the flagship GH se...
The G80 is a really solid release from Panasonic, offering 4K Photo and Post Focus in an intuitively-designed body. There's also plenty for video enthusiasts to get excited about, with focus peaking, zebra pattern, and external mic input. It's impressive...

Looks a little mainstream, Doesn't do enough to stand out
The G80 is a bit of a surprise. It doesn't have the killer looks to rival other CSCs, but once you start using it, that just doesn't matter. It's got all the features you'd want from a mid-ranger, including 4K video, plenty of manual controls, and clever...

Very high-sensitivity shots not the best
Panasonic G80 – Performance and AF We've never had any gripes with Panasonic's autofocus speed, and once again, it's another solid performance here. When faced with subjects under bright light, the lens quickly snaps into focus. You may find some hesitati...

Front dial too easily knocked in its new design, sixth Fn button placement not ideal, 4K capture has limitations for high-end videographers, busies G-series lineup
The Lumix G80 might not be the most visually exciting camera in the world. Its DSLR looks are harmless, though, it's just perhaps not as eye-catching as the subtleties of its GX80 brother. The presence of this camera alongside the G7 also muddies the G-se...
Abstract: The G80 resembles last year's G7, but is a big step up Panasonic's G-series is the oldest of all mirrorless camera lines, with the Lumix DMC-G1 being the very first camera of the type back in 2008. The latest G80 is, despite its numbering, recognisably a...

Abstract: What is the Panasonic G80? Panasonic's new G80 - not to be confused with the GX80 launched earlier this year - sits in the middle of Panasonic's CSC lineup. It features many of Panasonic's key technologies, including 4K Photo, in a form that's reminiscent...
