Panasonic Lumix DC-GX850

 

The Panasonic Lumix DC-GX850 is one of the smallest mirrorless cameras you can buy today, and while its 16MP sensor isn't cutting edge, it's a solid entry-level model.

16MP sensor is a bit dated. MicroSD memory easily lost. No EVF, hot shoe, or mic input.

The Panasonic Lumix DC-GX850 is an appealing camera, especially for family photographers who simply want high-quality snapshots from something small and easily packable. It delivers good, although not class-leading, image quality, has Wi-Fi so you can...
