We are discussing the best travel ILC, not the best travel alternative :)

A perfect travel ILC? What you are actually describing is the Lumix GM5!

Yes, that's always the case, but it will be a better informed decision, because all the data and the arguments have been aired (including a fair warning about changing lenses):-)

I would definitely leave the 25 at home. My ideal 3 lens kit is the 14-140 and two primes (in my case 20+45) for low light situations and I would strongly advise to get a 14-140, to avoid changing ...

If style (and durability) are the primary concerns ( and price is not), forget about camera bags - a camera bag is just a camera bag is just a camera bag, after all - and think out of the box: try ...

I am sure I will, my other camera is a GM1 - I am only trying to choose a grip! :-D

So,the RX100 grip is the best available choice, now that the Franiek grip is no longer available? How would it compare with the Flipbac G2/G4 grips and the JJC CG R1/L1? (I am thinking about ...

USB C is already implemented in smartphones. I fail to see why it is missing from hybrid tablet. Unless the reason is that

hurray! personally, I don't mind, but a miniature 4k capable high end body - a "baby gh" - might help sales considerably (even if videographers would have to attach an accessory to obtain 4-2-2/30p ...

True, but it seems to me that what this boils down to is that Panasonic would need to do further R&D in energy efficiency (and heat dissipation management - but the two really go together); but if ...

For me too - but, apart from the 2nd dial and a better evf, only the 20mp sensor is easy to implement; and given the R&D cost of implementing the other upgrades, Panasonic would not be able to ...

I think you are mixing up VAT with income tax. What you probably mean is that VAT on inputs is calculated at the rate of the country of their corporate seat (and paid in that country), rather than ...

On the other hand it might help justify the price and establish the GM niche: not a convenient middle-of-the-road value-for-money camera for the masses, but a true high end camera for epxerienced ...

Don' t worry, I did not take it personally  :-)  - just a nice opportunity to remind the other members of the GM fan club of the strategic importance of nagging ;-)

I am far more patient than you can imagine; the GM1 was my first interchangeable lens digital camera, simply because I would rather use a pocketable compact than compromise on my size and weight ...

I don't mind the name, as long as the size is still that of the gm series, or close. :-D

One can only hope that when the 20 mp sensor starts trickling down a new GM will show up; this time with two control dials (instead of the dedicated focus mode dial), plus the control wheel; and ...

Personally, I would have liked to know whether there is a difference in IQ (esp. jpg IQ) and autofocus speed/accuracy between it and the GM1/5, the GX85 and the PL8; and how big is the difference...

No, they threw out the baby and kept the bathwater :-x
