Hi,

I am looking a camera for my father to replace his Canon 600D which he didn't use mainly because of size of body, lenses and weight. He wants to have relatively good low light capability and some long zoom (150mm). Cost is an issue (600€) but we are open to suggestions, even used ones. I have the following kits which seem interesting:

Panasonic G5 (14-140)....645€

I'd vote for that, plus a 25mm f1.7.

BUT… Why not a GX7 with 14-42mm II and 45-150mm or 14-140mm II. Add a 25mm f1.7 for low light.
