Bets on it having a plastic mount?

XH2 -superior grip, top display and better spec XT5 lighter smaller and better LCD but not nice to hold

Sony don't seem very adventurous with their APSC body style it has been almost the same for years.  I think they have fallen some way behind competition now and surely a Alpha 6700 is due but so ...

How about Xpro4 with 2 screen versions  - a bit like the XH2 has 2 versions

I had the XE3 and now the XE4. I would like to see a couple of threads on the front to mount custom grips and not keen on the hot shoe thumb grips -they get in the way so return of the XE3 thumb ...

I have the old 23 and its great focus speed is fine as well.  The new one is better but as you mention bigger and cost more.

Already sold my XT4 a while ago so just the XE4 for me.  It is great to have so much choice though - they all look great models.  I could be tempted by an XT5 when the dust settles and we get some ...

I really liked my GX1 apart from the low res rear screen.  Panasonic do built a good camera!

This lens is not available for sale yet??

Make sure you set the connection type in the camera menu correctly or it will not work

The only problem with the old one was a bit slow focus -pity they didn't realise that

Similar in UK J1 most common body and mostly kit zoom lenses but often broken.  J1 battery clips also often broken. The odd 18.5mm for sale but not much else, Lots of availability from Japan but  ...

I think very little improvements to still image quality it is mostly focus and video improvements in new models.  If you need it depends what you use your camera for. I  think sales will plateau ...

I use my phone  if you have enough memory, or use phone to cloud or use OTG adapter to memory stick or card reader/writer you can do anything on a phone these days

curved screen -no thanks

Main negative is tiny EVF  -be nice to see a bigger one even if there is an EVF bump or I don't mind 3mm extra height

I can only assume that the A74 has such a primitive 1m dot LCD screen so that in 6months time they can bring out the A74a upgrade and increase the price again. Even the Fuji XE4 at under half the ...

Just a quick post to help people avoid problems I spend some needless time solving: I could not find USB mass storage option in "set up menu", only USB Lun which is not the one you need to get your ...

Zero chance

Japan is not listening
