The new Nikon 1 V3

Really guys! You should stop whining about Olympus/Panasonic camera being to expensive. Just watch how much the newly announced and very ugly (for my personal tastes) Nikon 1 V3 costs ($1199 Amazon). You see? For once we should feel lucky :)

Uh, what’s really positively “mad” is the 20fps with continuous autofocus! Impressive!

P.S.: Nikon 1 V3 Coverage at Mirrorlessrumors.com.

This will make UK guys lucky and at the same time piss off the rest of the world ;)

Those of you that preorder the GH4 at Wexcamera Uk (Click here) or CameraWorld (Click here) will get a free battery grip to! You basically pay 1000 pounds exactly for the camera only. I hope Panasonic is reading us: We want this i other countries too!

Thanks DapLabs for finding this!

You can grab the Panasonic GM1 for $666 and get $136 of free extras at Adorama (Click here). You get it for the same price at Amazon (Click here) but without the free extras. Meantime the new GH4 is still selling well according to Amazon’s DSLR ranking (full list here).

Like it was with the GH3 Panasonic asked Amazon US to list the GH4 as a DSLR! Indeed to see how good the pre-sales are you have to check the Amazon DSLR ranking (Click here to see the list) and not the mirrorless category ranking. As you can see GH4 preorders are doing fine and I hope the camera will stay on top of this ranking for a long time :)

I guess Panasonic marketing is aware that the word “DSLR” has a much higher importance than “Mirrorless” or “CSC” or whatever else.

And an anonymous 43rumors reader sent me this:

When I called Adorama at 2pm (PST) 10 MAR 14. The Customer service agent confided that they had had over 100 orders for the GH4 since noon (2 hours!) He said it was easily their best selling item for the day and it was basically the only item people were buying. He said at noon Adorama already placed a massive order for GH4s with Panasonic just for the ones ordered since midnight. And that he himself had just placed his own order for a GH4 7 minutes before he took my call.
