(FT2) Panasonic Lumix GP1 in November?
This one is probably a fools day joke. But the author of the rumor seems to be pretty convinced that this is a “real” rumor. I didn’t hear anything about such a camera but beeing a rumor website I will post that
Keep in mind. This rumor has a very high chance to be fake ok?

- The GP1 is a pro camera, weather sealed, all in metal
- 14 megapixels, 12 effective, all ratios, new BL Live MOS sensor
- Iso up to 6400, with true clean 3200 iso, Hi setting to 12800
- Touch screen like the Panasonic G2, New Venus HD III engine

The “Pro” words described do not give us too much information on how competitive it will be compared with the real professional DSLR.

3 years ago |To clarify, my friend told me that on April 1, but he was teasing me, after the weekend I will talk to him, I think he told me a half true instead of a fools joke, hope he it is this way, sometimes he seem playing with me but some moments no and he said he was not sure of the name
Before the G2 and G10 launch he told me about them, and all he said was true, I even have send email to 43rumors telling what he said, let’s see this time what happens, to me it can be a GH2 a GP1 or something else, but if I had to choose a name I choose GP1
To me really hope it’s true

Hope so. I’d buy it if it covered 3200…
