Anonymous: “just for fun ;) This is what I imagined, with the help of a little photoshopping, a FourThirds 300 f4 might have looked like back in 2009. That dream never came to fruition but after 7 long years we finally have a 300 F4 for Microfourthirds! I think it has some similarities to the current lens, but I didn’t foresee the lens IS system…

JR: “I would like to share my short action-comedy miniseries shot primarily with the GH4. In particular for Episode 1, we acquired a pair of massive Fujinon Cabrio Premier PL lenses, which allowed us to execute some very fun and retro crash zooms in addition to delivering tack-sharp, quality footage.

Two sources confirmed that Panasonic will have a new MFT announcement within the next 4-6 weeks. I got no details yet but they said it’s not for a new GH or G series camera! I am working to get the details soon.
In the meantime answer this: what are you hoping to get from Panasonic?

Dpreview posted the full Panasonic GX8 review and writes:
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-GX8 is a impressive mirrorless camera that ticks most of the boxes that many enthusiasts are seeking. Its new 20MP sensor is impressive, Depth from Defocus AF system top-notch, and Dual IS system innovative. The camera’s touchscreen and Wi-Fi features are both well-implemented, and its weather-sealed body is solid. Still shooters will need to decide whether having to use the electronic shutter to avoid blur is worth its potential trade-offs, while videographers who want to hook up an external mic or HDMI cable may not enjoy losing the flexibility of the camera’s rotating rear screen. It’s for these reasons – especially shutter shock – that we are unable to give the GX8 our highest award.
