Giving up on Panasonic gx7... I think.

Re: Giving up on Panasonic gx7... I think.

Thanks for all the replies guys. Very useful. I'm now thinking I'll sell the body but not the lenses. My reasons for this are as follows:  I've heard that the gx80 doesn't have the so-called shutter shock that this cam does. I always noticed that the gx7 shutter was pretty noisy. I remember handling the gx80 in a shop and preferring the size to the gx7. I also understand that it has a superior IS system than the the 7 and a better and faster autofocus system.

This is quite a list of upgrades if they are all true and what is more these can be had used for very low prices. What do you guys think about the gx80?

The Canon gx7 markii has arrived and I'm liking the feel of it but so far I haven't had much chance to get out there and shoot with it. I hope it doesn't suffer too much from the dreaded dust on the lens problem, which I hear it is prone to.
