Dpreview interviewed Panasonic Imaging Product Manager Sean Robinson. There are a lot of insights about the G9 and GH5s development. One curious note is that Panasonic also monitors forums and facebook groups for feedback and ideas:

We definitely don’t ignore any feedback, from anyone. It’s not always like an official interview, where we sit down and talk to someone 1:1, we’re also constantly scouring forums and Facebook groups, and when someone calls into our call center or messages us on Twitter for example, all of that information is captured. It’s collated weekly, and reported back to our team in Japan.

Sean is also member of our G9 and GH5/GHs facebook groups. So be sure to join us there and give your feedback!

Olympus Japan made a major announcement today. Olympus will stop the camera production in Shenzhen City (China) and move it to their current facility in Dong Nan (Vietnam). The reason for this is the reduction of the camera market production. For that reason and to save costs all camera will be now produced in Vietnam only.
