Pretty sure that isn't the case here.

For a novice that may not be familiar with SS, the general tone of this discussion suggests that GX8 has this issue while other cameras do not. "Here" refers to this discussion. Someone even suggested that Panasonic "rushed the camera" to production which is ridiculous. Many people forget that while many of us are knowledgeable, such discussions also attract those who are less knowledgeable, looking to learn.

When personal opinions are expressed as factual evidence, that decreases the credibility.

OP has a GX8 (as do I). He noticed shutter shock (as do I). Clearly, this isn't a phenomenon with the GX8, its in most cameras... the GX8 has a very good E-shutter that deals with it, though I personally have been having focus issues with the E-shutter lately and I think it may come down to my copy of the 35-100 f2.8 lens. I'll test again tomorrow with the Noct and the 35-100 and see.
