Right now I have been told there is a short delay on the US Olumpus 75mm lens shipment. Nothing to worry about but the message on BHphoto (Click here) isn’t correct. Meantime the Black E-m5 kit keeps to be in Stock at Amazon (Click here). The X pancake sells for $279 only at Amazon (Click here).

Something else. Neither the new G5 nor the high end compact camera LX7 managed to get huge amount of preorders at least when looking at the Amazon (pre-order) rankings. The real hit of the moment is the surprising Sony RX100 (on top!). There seems to be a market for high quality but still very compact cameras with zoom lens. May something Olympus and Panasonic have to watch out!

Preorders of the new Panasonic stuff:
Black G5 at Amazon (Click here) and BHphoto (Click here)
Silver G5 at Amazon (Click here) and BHphoto (Click here)
45-150mm lens in Black at BHphoto (Click here) and in Silver at BHphoto (Click here).
LX7 in Black at Amazon (Click here) and BHphoto (Click here) in White at Amazon (Click here) and BHphoto (Click here)
Other compacts, the FZ200 at BHphoto (Click here), the FZ60 at BHphoto (Click here).
