The Panasonic Lumix DC-GX850/GX800 (also known as the GF9 [2] in some regions) is an interchangeable lens [3] mirrorless system digital camera announced by Panasonic on January 4, 2017. [4]

It uses the same 16MP Four Thirds sensor as several of its siblings. [5] It is sold with a 12-32mm collapsible f/3.5-5.6 ASPH. MEGA O.I.S. kits lens [6] and includes a 180-degree 3-inch flip-up touch LCD with a 1,040k-dot resolution, [1] Panasonic's Depth-from-Defocus AF, built-in WiFi, [7] and 4K 3840 x 2160 [4] video capture.

The camera also offers Face Detection Focusing, [4] a max ISO of 25600 [4] and Timelapse Recording. [4] However, it doesn't include in-body image stabilization, [4] an external flash shoe, [4] or a built-in viewfinder. [4]

In some markets, a follow-up model named the GX880 or GF10 was released, with only external changes to the grip and no internal updates.
