There are people whom wants big camera, and people whom likes small and light ones, and people with different views on what a "just right" size is. But honestly, for a company like Panny, focus on small to mid for M43 and push big size to FF would makes more sense, so their product lines don't compete with each other.

They should keep the G series bigger size SLR styled, and concentrated to make their GX line of RF bodies smaller and lighter. A WR IBIS body that's below 400g would be nice, below 350g would be perfect for the compact side. M43 should not have anything above 600g, unless it's a Pro Grade Camcorder for making movies. The G line, the smaller GX line and maybe super compact GM line. Together with the L Mount, they would have 4 sizes from people to choose from. As for GH, maybe they should make them into camcorders instead...

TMicro Four Thirds should NOT make large bodies, unless they are for specific use cases like Video.

Oh really that simple hey ? this is so ridiculous :-P. I am pretty sure that models like the G9 or the Gh5 generate more profit than when selling a gx80 or a gf880 or whatever the name

corporations are looking more at profitability levels than just sales expressed by units

Heat dissipation, dual card slots, durability, etc, Not because it has better handling.

does not matter why you buy a larger body if there is a reason , yes ?

Also smaller bodies should have room for modulation. Grips, battery grips.

more references to sort at the dealer and importer level . more missing parts in stock / again the argument of a client not from the business side

If you really want M43 to survive and the chance to compete in mirrorless, then you have to say goodbye to large bodies/lenses.

pure unaltered bs.. just guess work
