On assignment, I like to work fast, but what I don’t like to do is fumble with a camera. As I began to really work with the GX8, I found that the size of the camera was an advantage, but for how I work, it needed a bit of help. If you ever worked with a GH4, you’ll notice how damned comfortable a camera it is for its small size. The grip on the GX8, however, is a bit sharp on edge where your fingers wrap around to the front of the body. I believe this choice is more form than function as it appears to be shaped for someone that might have their human hand replaced with a giant lego hand.

I think this is a good footage in night low light situation. With images very clean.
After a few days of companionship the Panasonic Lumix GX8 had proved to be a very solid still camera. Its larger size will give you confidence to bring it everywhere on every circumstances even in bad weather.
