Panasonic Lumix DMC-G85 Black 2020
Doté d'un capteur Live MOS 16MP et d'une stabilisation Dual I.S. intégrée au boîtier, il compense efficacement les tremblements pour des images nettes. Sa construction tropicalisée et son écran tactile orientable de 3 pouces offrent une grande polyvalence dans des conditions difficiles.

Aperçu
En 30 secondes
Un boîtier increvable avec une des meilleures autonomies du marché, mais son capteur 16 MP vous fera regretter chaque agrandissement. Achetez-le pour le boîtier, pas pour l'image.
Avantages et inconvénients
Points forts
- Autonomie monstrueuse (850 vues), la meilleure que nous ayons mesurée en mirrorless 99th

Points faibles
- Capteur 16 MP daté, pauvre en détails et en bruit dès 1600 ISO
- Écran fixe et non tactile : un vrai frein pour le vlog et les angles bas
- Poids de l'ensemble (2,4 kg avec accessoires) : oubliez la légèreté d'un hybride moderne
- Vidéo 4K limitée à 30p, cropée et sans profils log, la rend peu attirante pour les créateurs

Les preuves
Performances
Ce qui m'a vraiment scotché, c'est la batterie : quasiment 850 déclenchements par charge, c'est du niveau d'un reflex et ça met une claque à 99 % du marché. La rafale à 30 i/s (en obturation électronique) est un autre bon point, tout comme la stabilisation 5 axes intégrée, qui rattrape parfaitement les bougés en vidéo et en photo à main levée. En revanche, le capteur 16 MP reste la grosse déception : la montée en ISO au-dessus de 1600 devient vite baveuse, et on perd trop de détails pour recadrer. Pour du sport ou de l'animalier en pleine lumière, ça passe, mais attendez-vous à des limites en basse lumière.

Face à la concurrence
Le rival direct en micro 4/3 reste l'OM System OM-1 Mark II : capteur 20 MP empilé, autofocus IA, rafale 50 i/s… mais il coûte deux à trois fois plus cher. Si vous voulez rester en hybride à petit prix, le Panasonic Lumix S5 II (plein format) offre un capteur incomparablement plus défini, et le Sony a7R V enterre le G85 en résolution, en vidéo et en autofocus. Le Fujifilm X-H2S et le Canon EOS R6 Mark III dominent aussi le haut du panier, tout comme le Nikon Z9, mais à des prix sans commune mesure. L'écart se creuse surtout pour qui souhaite filmer ou poster en grand format. Le G85 ne survit que si vous privilégiez la robustesse et l'autonomie avant tout.

Prix
Rapport qualité-prix
Avec un prix qui oscille entre 898 $ et 1 246 $ selon les vendeurs, les 348 $ d'écart valent le coup de chiner. Le meilleur tarif (aux alentours de 900 $) est correct pour qui veut un boîtier tout-temps avec une stabilisation de folie et le zoom 12-60mm en prime. Mais si vous n'avez pas déjà des optiques micro 4/3, ou si la qualité d'image vous importe, ce n'est pas une bonne affaire : un bon smartphone haut de gamme fera mieux en basse lumière, et un Sony a6400 d'occasion vous offrira un capteur APS-C bien supérieur pour un prix proche.

Aperçu
Le Panasonic Lumix DMC-G85, c'est un peu le vieux 4x4 increvable qu'on ressort les jours de pluie. Ce boîtier micro 4/3 est livré avec un bundle bien garni, dont le zoom 12-60mm OIS, deux batteries, un sac et même une carte mémoire. Résultat : une autonomie tout simplement hallucinante (850 vues, on a rarement vu ça) et une construction tropicalisée qui lui permet de sourire sous une averse. Mais il y a un hic de taille : le capteur 16 MP est à la ramasse à côté de n'importe quel APS-C ou smartphone récent, et l'écran fixe plombe l'expérience pour qui veut cadrer autrement que derrière le viseur. Bref, vous achetez ici un outil robuste et stabilisé comme jamais, pas une machine à pixels.
Questions fréquentes
Q: Est-ce qu'il filme en 4K 60p ?
Non, le G85 monte à 4K 30p maximum. Pour du 60p fluide, il faut descendre en Full HD 1080p. Et attention : le recadrage 4K est assez serré, ce qui complique les plans larges en intérieur.
Q: Le viseur est-il confortable pour suivre une action ?
Oui, avec 2,4 millions de points et un bon grossissement, l'EVF est l'un des meilleurs du segment. Les photographes de sport ou d'oiseaux apprécieront le confort et le taux de rafraîchissement correct.
Q: La carte SD incluse dans le bundle suffit-elle ?
La carte fournie lit à 95 Mo/s, ce qui va pour des photos en JPEG. Mais pour exploiter la rafale à 30 i/s ou filmer en 4K sans plantage, investissez dans une carte UHS-II plus véloce. Le bundle vous donne de quoi démarrer, pas de quoi pousser la machine à fond.
À qui ce produit ne convient pas
Si vous cherchez un appareil pour le vlog ou des images riches en détails pour de grands tirages, le G85 n'est pas pour vous. Son écran fixe et son capteur 16 MP vous frustreront très vite. Dirigez-vous plutôt vers un Sony a6400 (excellent autofocus vidéo) ou même un smartphone récent avec un bon mode pro.
Verdict
Le Panasonic Lumix DMC-G85 est un choix pragmatique uniquement si vous avez besoin d'un boîtier tropicalisé increvable, stabilisé comme un pied, et que vous possédez déjà un parc d'optiques Panasonic/Olympus. Pour tout le reste, son capteur anémique et son écran fixe le condamnent à un usage spécifique : animalier, randonnée sous la pluie, ou sac à dos de vacances où la batterie tient une semaine. Si la qualité d'image est votre priorité, passez votre chemin sans regret.
