As I said in a previous blog post,\u00a0 Jack picked up a Sony Compact camera and, as always happens, it costs me money!!!!!\u00a0 I really like the idea of something light I could grab headed to the car for casual shooting.\u00a0 I probably over did it, but I wanted full coverage and the Micro 4\/3rd stuff is so light and small, I ended up with a cool little system for the purpose at hand!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The body is the Lumix GX85, 16 mega pixels and lot of really nice features, excellent Image stabilization and shockingly good image quality!\u00a0 The images below are of some familiar targets but I was pleased with the results.<\/span><\/p>\n

The 45mm f 1.8 lens is super sharp, I loved the texture in this mic shot!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The 35-100 (70-200) is very crisp as ell and extremely small for a lens of that speed and focal length!\u00a0 That’s a pretty relaxed squirrel.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Pure gas pumps at the Original Kentucky Fried Chicken are a good sharpness test,\u00a0 35-100.<\/span><\/p>\n

Two of my favorite alley shots from downtown Corbin.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lastly the Southern railway car “The French Broad River” is always good for smooth gradation tests.<\/span><\/p>\n

I plan a family trip to Page AZ in early May, this will be my\u00a0 only sytem for that trip, we’ll see what I get!<\/span><\/p>\n
