that make sense.. i didn’t know that EVF will banned some zoom or wide lenses. but i can live without EVF if panasonic will release some new camera like GF1 but with better sensor and retro look.

I has to be a compact rangerfinder like style with builtin HD viewfinder(as good as G1) and comes with fill-in flash as attachable external accessory supplied with camera package, or I won’t buy it.

I’m also hoping for an LC”2″ with G3 sensor. There’s room in the market for a fixed-lens 4/3, between the LX5 and GF-series. I’d even settle for a 19 or 20mm prime lens “poor” person’s X100.
I’d rather have swivel screen than EVF/hybrid finder.

But I’m not getting my hopes up just yet. I was sorely disappointed after this “FT5″ rumor last year:

Panasonic will find a way to disappoint. Probably a pink or white edition point and shoot marketed to Japanese teens or something like that.

The problem with anniversary editions is they are all about the past, not the future.
