We got solid multiple confirmations that Panasonic will have a press event during the first week of April. We expect Panasonic to announce the new entry level G camera and a new Leica branded prime lens. I don’t know if Panasonic will also announce new camcorders for the upcoming NAB event.

The next lens coming from Panasonic is very likely to be a new Leica branded prime lens. No specs are known yet. But the chances are high the lens will be announced in April.
