Panasonic FZ1000 gets DxOmarked (In Stock at Amazon/Adorama).

The Panasonic FZ1000 is back in Stock at Amazon (Click here) and Adorama (Click here). The camera sesnor also got tested at DxOmark (Click here):

ThePanasonic DMC-FZ1000 is unashamedly targeting the RX10, which was a unique proposition. While the Sony remains tempting for its high-speed constant aperture zoom, the Panasonic’s extra reach, 4K video capture, similar (if not quite as impressive) sensor performance and slightly lower price means it’s a strong contender in this new class of camera.

Small surprise: Olympus drops the Silver E-M1 price (-$100!).

Between today and September 20 Olympus will offer an additional $100 discount on the Silver E-M1. It now matches the price of th Black version. The discount is already showing up at Amazon and GetOlympus. I think Adorama and Bhphoto will catch up soon. Those of you who preordered the camera yesterday (with the $1,399 price) should ask for the $100 discount.

If you ask me the price of the Silver E-M1 should have been the same as of the Black version right from the very first day.

A look at the Amazon US sales ranking: 40-150mm and LX100 doing best!

What’s hot and what’s not? The most popular new MFT product is definitely the Panasonic LX100! Let’s take a look at the Amazon US rankings to see what gets the most preorders:

Amazon Lens ranking (Click here): The Olympus 40-150mm PRO lens is doing fine and made it into the top 20. The 35-100mm doesn’t appear into the top 100 list :(

Amazon Mirrorless ranking (Click here): A bit strange, but the LX100 falls into that category according to Amazon and is clearly leading the ranking! And the GM5 is doing well too. Not doing so well is the Silver E-M1.

Amazon overall camera ranking (Click here): LX100 is doing super well!

The GM5 is coming and the GX7 price is dropping. You can grab it for $615 at [shoplink 48179 ebay]6ave eBay (Click here)[/shoplink]. Doesn’t mean the GM5 replaces the GX7. I still hope they will make a GX8 in 2015 :)
