The G7 was announced in May 2015 - 2 and ½ years later came the G9

The GH4 was announced in February 2014 - Less than 2 years later came the GH5

The GX7 was announced in August 2013 - Less than 2 years later came the GX8. After 6 more months came the GX7 II.

Now, considering that 2 and ½ years went by since the GX8 announcement, when will Panasonic announce an upgrade?

Will it be GX8 II or GX9 ?

What will be the improvement over the GX8: New Shutter? Joy Stick ? Headphone connection? Any Guess?

Panasonic decided that the GX8 replacement would be a revolutionary camera.

The first invisible camera, for those moments where you need absolute stealth.

When they (secretly of course) marketed it a few months ago, they discovered that Samsung had beaten them by two years with their NX2...

Bummer.
