“free” GF3 on top of the ranks!
For the price of the 14mm pancake lens you get almost a free GF3. That’s why this camera kit is ruling the Amazon Ranking (Click here to see). This are the deals we need to expand the m43 system. Wish I could found some of them in Europe too!
P.S.: GX1 with zoom lens for $519 again at Amazon (Click here).

Excellent price considering it started at almost 1000.

11 months ago |About 2 months ago, I bought here in Vienna an Olympus E-PL1 with 14-150 mm lens for 360 €. The lens alone is more expensive as well. This was my start into mFT (just waiting a bit before I will buy the E-M5. And the 45 mm Zuiko. But have now also the 20 mm Pana-Pancake and love it…)

11 months ago |OT: Admin, it seems I can’t display the mobile version of 43rumors or mirrorlessrumors anymore on my iPhone: is this intentional or a temporary bug? The same thing happened also on sonyalpharumors a while ago.
The full site is quite slow and awkward to navigate on a mobile, whereas the previous version was very handy, legible and quick to load. I didn’t find any link to choose the mobile version. I hope this change is not permanent as these 3 sites are my daily favorites, worthy of their permanent Safari tab in my phone! Great content!

11 months ago |@Admin – I have just /found/ a quirk of the new design: if one disables the annoying WordPress(?) toolbar on the top, one can’t log-in into the site back when the log-in expires. AND can’t enable the toolbar back to log-in. Any chances of bringing back the old style log-in box? Sorry for the bother.
On-topic. In Germany there is no GF5 kit with the 14mm. WTF? GF3 – yes. But the GF5 has only one kit – kit with the 14-42 X. GF5 could have been an impulse buy few weeks ago when it became available here – if it were the 14mm kit. Panasonic, I am disappoint.
