Re: Panasonic GX10 (rumoured, FT4)

I got a GX80 with 12-32mm about one month ago as a camera to have always with me. I bought it from amazon.de and spend only 470€. It is a sweet spot while not loosing so much that a GX9 could provide me for 200€ (42.5%) more.

I have to say that the GX line of Panasonic and E-PL of Olympus are the true nature of MFT system. Small, lightweight systems to fit in your jacket pocket replacing smartphone cameras with ability to change lenses. Other lines can get bigger that easily APS-C cameras can match the camera size. So unless you do not seek reach there are not so many things nowadays to attract you on a bigger camera than a GX.

The only two things I would like to have is the mic jack that GX10 possible would provide and an articulating screen. The first one would be good in order to use an external microphone in order to pair with a good 4K video, while the later to make it easier to shoot yourself when you share moments with some friends, family etc.

The next thing that could revolution the MFT is the global shutter without having a large hit on noise production. But I wouldn't wait that to exist in the GX10.
