(FT4) Panasonic will announce two new cameras by end of August (but no GH5 yet)

A trusted source confirmed that Panasonic will announce two new camera by end of August.

One is the already mentioned new entry level MFT camera. I have no info yet about the second camera but my guess is that the second camera is the LX100 successor I wrote about in early July (article here). The rumored specs of that camera are:

  1. It will have the same sensor of the GX80 GX85.
  2. But it will not have the same processor as the future GH5.
  3. Rear screen will be like the GX80: Articulated and tactile.

Still no news about the possible GH5 announcement date…

Pascal: “Hello, I am a french video and travel enthusiast, and I would like to share with your viewers two short video clips I made after a road trip in Cape Verde and in Sicilia in March and May. These 2 different places offered me both a really great travel experience.
Sicilia: https://vimeo.com/174676940
Cape Verde: https://vimeo.com/162249408
I shot the video with a Gh4 and a Gm5 with 4 lenses (12-35 2.8, 25 mm 1.4, 42.5 mm 1.7 and 45-175 mm)
I must say I am pretty impressed with the video quality of the tiny Gm5 (sure it’s only full Hd but it mixes pretty well with the Gh4 footage).”

Stephen: “Here is a video I was hired to do for the Isle of Wight Mardi Gras.  Unfortunately I was only able to capture the preparations as the parade was cancelled due to lightning and torrential rain.  Horrible weather to work in.  Too bad, as all the kids and organisers put tonnes of time into preparations.  Handheld using two GX80 with the Panasonic 12-35/2.8 and 35-100/2.8 lenses (the LX100 for time-lapse).  https://youtu.be/ohVyjbQoxhs or vimeo: https://vimeo.com/176550457“
