Panasonic GH6 for underwater use

had the chance to use the camera yesterday and I wrote down some considerations

I think it will mostly appeal video users as it was with the gh5 but the photo capability seem good enough

Re: Panasonic GH6 for underwater use

there is an expectation of a G9 replacement with the same sensor and a bias towards the photo features.   This would likely remove the fan and its bulk.

I'm hopeful that there could be an ultimate replacement to my GH4 that would let me continue to use the ports and 43 lenses I have.   But I am not looking forward to the price that Nauticam will want, so maybe I still should just accept the loss and sell the ports.   I replaced the GH4 with the R5 last year, but still would like the option of a more compact choice.
