That is now very close to a miracle. OFr the first time in US all different Panasonic GH2 kits are in Stock and shipping at J&R (Click here). Check out the GH2 availability in other stores at [shopcountry 16254].

So now that everyone on the world can get the GH2 we hope Panasonic will release the next new products soon :)

Reminder: There are Instant Rebates on the E-PL2 at Amazon and BHphoto. And the white Olympus XZ-1 is in Stock at Amazon (Click here).

Now it’s becoming very unfair! While we europeans can get the Olympus 40-150mm lens for over 250 Euro only you US guys can get it for $150 (110 Euro) only!!! Check out BHphoto (Click here) to get the lens. That price makes it the cheapest Micro Four Ghirds lens on market. And we are not talking about a bad quality lens. DiwaLabs and SLRgear alredy tested the lens and said that it has an “excellent performance”. If those price drops will continue next month you will only have to buy a coffee for the BHphoto storekeeper to get the lens for free :)

Check the price and availability of the lens at [shopcountry 15864].

Sorry if I had to post two DEALS related posts one after another but I just saw a deal the US readers can’t miss. The Panasonic GH2 with 14-140mm lens is in Stock at Amazon (Click here). It’s the first time I see that combination in Stock at Amazon for the normal price ($1499). It’s sold and shipped by Amazon itself!

UPDATE: Deal is DEAD now!

P.S.: There are now over ten Fuji X100 cameras on auction on [shoplink 19929 ebay]eBay (Click here)[/shoplink]. All priced over $2000!!!

At least in US Olympus is playing a very aggressive pricing against the immediate competition. The Olympus E-PL2 just dropped by $40-50 on Amazon (Click here). The price now is $549 ($560 for the black model). That’s $150 less than the price of the Panasonic GF2 (Click here) and Sony NEX-5 (Click here). There is only one compact mirrorless camera that costs less, the Samsung NX100 (Click here). But for some reasons you might can explain it is not selling well. It has to be seen if Panasonic and Sony will “react” and lower the price too. In Europe the price difference between those cameras is very minimal. They all cost around 500 Euro.

Check price differences for yourself:

Panasonic GF2 at [shopcountry 17361].
Sony NEX-5 at [shopcountry 20638].
Samsung NX100 at [shopcountry 20762].

P.S.: I didn’t mention the NEX-3 because it has been discontinued at (Check [shopcountry 21021]).

The deal of the day is the Panasonic GH1 body only which is in Stock for $399 only at Amazon (Click here).

There is also a good Olympus deal. You can get the E-PL1 with 14-42mm and 40-150mm lenses for $599 on Amazon (Click here). That’s $66 less than the sum of the single camera and lens value.
