Too late for me. I abandoned the GX when Panasonic watered down the GX8 to satisfy all the whiners. It will take a monumental jump in tech to pry my G9 from my hands. I don’t see that happening with the GX10.

GX and G9 are aimed at a different market, not even remotely similar.

That may be true for the GX80 and GX800, but the GX8 had a fair amount of overlap with the G9.

How? While the GX8 isn’t the smallest camera in the M4/3 universe, the G9 is a bloated thing. The grip is downright uncomfortable.

If Panasonic keep a 3 tier GX line, more of us will be happy.

Yes indeed. Camera tech doesn’t move fast enough for 2-year refresh cycles.

They could have a 4 year upgrade cycle for the different models and do each different one every two years. Big, small, big, small. GX7, GX8, GX7, GX8.

Historically, GX cameras were released like this:
2011: GX1, 2013: GX7, 2015: GX8, 2016: GX85, 2018: GX9.
