Enjoy, you should write about your initial impression of the camera here.

BTW how much did you pay for the camera?

I got mine from DigiDirect 3 days ago, have been testing since. AUD1059 plus delivery.

It's very appealing camera and could replace an ILC and several lenses for many people I would think. Image quality is just like the GH4 but one stop more noisy. ISO 3200 on the GH4 looks like ISO 1600 on the FZ1000. Color balance in Auto WB is different with the GH4 more yellow and the FZ1000 more blue on indoor pix in artificial light.

Thanks everyone. I paid $1059 for it. It does not come with a lens cap cord unfortunately, but that doesn't bother me as I probably wouldn't use it anyway. I usually put the cap the camera bag when shooting and only on again when finished.

Decided to save myself some cash by ordering from these guys: http://www.leedervillecameras.com.au/products/digital/panasonic---/panasonic-fz1000--pre-order-

But they haven't had any FZ1000 stock in yet. I guess that's the price I pay by paying less. Heh.

Ted's seem to be out of stock on their website too (even though they have filled some pre-orders already) so maybe there is a temporary supply issue.

Anyway, fingers crossed for this week some time.

Dispatched from WA yesterday, arrived in Melbourne today. I'm pretty sure that this is the cheapest price in Aus, and they still have stock.

Enjoy your new toy.
