Re: FULL STEAM AHEAD, LUMIX

I'd be happy with the same size G9 externally. It's nice as a wildlife and sports camera and balances the longer focal length lenses nicely. An upgraded sensor is all it needs to kick sand in the full-frame users faces. It could still resolve well on PL lenses up to around 30 mega pixels I think. I'm sure people will ask for contrast detection AF rather than the DfD, and that might be nice too.   But really,  we just need someone (anyone) to keep this wonderful lightweight system alive.  It'll be hard to convince the aging boomers (who are a natural market)  or anyone else for that matter, to jump to a lighter and more responsive system if they think the platform is dead-ended.  It's a self-fulfilling death spiral, I fear.
