What lenses do you have for the G85?

Bear in mind that the G85 has Dual I.S. 2 which combines in-body with in-lens stabilization. This works only with selected Lumix and Lumix Leica lenses. If you get a Pen F, it can work with its own internal stabilization OR use the Lumix in-lens stabilization — but not both.

I’d look at the Lumix GX9 instead, if you have good Lumix glass. It is a direct competitor to the Pen-F. You get the best attributes of IBIS and ILIS. And it’s two years newer, has the same 20MP sensor as the Pen-F, with no AA filter and Panasonic’s latest JPEG engine. It’s a little less expensive, too.

This is the answer to your Photostick problem.
My photo sick ran but did not save any photos so I Googled their site and clicked on support. They told me to format the stick as you did and they emailed their The“Photostick reset tool.exe” I ran it and followed the installation instructions. After that my Photostick ran smoothly and copied my photos.
They advantage of the stick is that it seeks out all the photos that have been buried here and there through the years and forgotten. After that you can copy the photos to other flashdrives and give them as memory gifts to family and friends. Don’t give up on it, they do work.

I must ask, before I begin pulling my hair out. Am I the only one on here that finds disgusting ads on here? Now let me state, I still have a healthy libido, and have never been called a prude. But for several weeks, as I scroll down all the sections I read, I have repeatedly seen the monster butts, usually in green, twisted flesh tone 'somethings', and several more things I'd like not to see.

I've clicked over and over that the ads are offensive, and Google constantly thanks me, but yet, there they are again.

Please don't suggest I switch to another browser. I'm curious to learn if I'm the only one receiving these awful ads.

Having a problem with Lightroom. All of my previews are grayed out in Library. I can open the files in Develop and work with them individually. However, the images are grayed out in the ribbon on the bottom here as well.
I am on a DELL XPS13
Color space default is sRGB
I have tried deleting the previews.db and root-pixels.db files then restarting LR. Later I deleted the whole Previews.lrdata folder then restarted.

But the result of each a tempt was is a failure to launch. I restored the files and got gray.

I have done this with the external drive where I keep my original files attached and with the drive unmounted. The results are the same. My catalog is maintained on the laptop and the catalog has about 4,000 images. The issue is consistent fro all images and directories and collections.



LR won't let me generate a preview telling me they already exists.

Any thoughts?

Note: I had just posted this in the Main Photography Discussion forum, but thought I should post here as well.
