Sony copied these modes to their NEX and SLT cameras, so hopefully Panasonic will introduce them in the G series as well. That’s why the news is here, more useful info than that of Fuji X100…

I agree that these are not m43 stuff, but well, Panasonic seems to use the same kind of bodies and interfaces for all its cameras, so I guess by following the other stuff they are working on we might get a cue as to what novelties are to be expected for their next m43 camera.

Wow

The TS/FT cameras are great little cameras, I have had a camera die due to getting wet (while in a “waterproof” pocket). One of these little beauts might just come on my next snorkelling trip. Just gotta put it on a headstrap for video!
Jeez, a compass, barometer, altimeter & GPS locator on a 12 MP camera with a 28-128mm zoom that can go down to 12m and is only the size of a pack of UNO cards isn’t interesting? All they have do do is put a phone in it now and they’ll have every outdoor enthusiast in the world at their door! Well done Panasonic!

On another note, people need to stop complaining about articles they don’t care about. It’s simple, if you don’t like it, don’t click on the article. “Who cares?” Well you obviously cared enough to click on this article and comment on it.
