There is a huge price drop from over $100 on the GH2-14-140mm lens kit. It’s ongoing on all major online retailers like Amazon (Click here), Bhphoto (Click here) and J&R (Click here). Where there is smoke there is fire and I guess that Panasonic wants to make some “price-space” for the upcoming new GH2 kits when the 14-35mm and 35-100mm X lenses will be announced in January. Hope Panasonic will not exaggerate with the price again!
UPDATE: Also the Gh2 + 14-42mm lens kit got a $100 price drop. Check at Amazon (Click here).
For the first time the Panasonic GF3X kit (with 14-42mm X lens) is in Stock at Amazon US (Click here) and Adorama (Click here). The price is $749.95. The upcoming GX1X (with 14-42mm X lens) should cost around $250-300 more.
And the Olympus 45mm f/1.8 lens is back in Stock at BHphoto (Click here).
The very first white GF3 with 14-42mm X as kit lens is in Stock at Panasonic store USA (Click here). Most of you will be interested in the lens only (like I am) and this might be a good sign that the lens will soon be in Stock.
And than there is a huge error I have to report. A reader contacted me to say that Amazon is selling the older Four Thirds Panasonic 25mm lens as a Micro Four Thirds Lens (Click here to see the amazon page with the error). I know many of you are waiting to see the REAL m43 lens in Stock so be warned! Don’t let you fool!

And there is a new lens review at ePhotozine (Click here): “The low price may be a little misleading at first glance, as this lens is a very capable optic. Those looking for a fast aperture prime lens for portraits, photography in low light, or for greater control over depth of field will not be disappointed“.
