Not really a surprise but we have been told the new Panasonic LX100II will have an increased resolution sensor. The current LX100 has “just” 12 MP. I hope to get some real detailed specs soon…
One thing is sure, the camera will be announced on August 23!
Good news folks! Trusted and new sources told us the very same thing: Panasonic will announce the new LX100II on Agust 23! Yes this is the very same day of the Nikon FF mirrorless and DJI Mavic PRO announcements.
I have no specs yet…but I hope to get them soon!
The new GX9 and the GH5 (via CameraSize).
I just got this info from a reliable source:
What I heard so far is that Pana will further streamline the portfolio. Essentially there will remain the GX and the GH line only. For GH it will be discussed that you can buy software keys to enable different features for video or photo but hardware will remain the same
It’s not clear if that’s just an ongoing discussion at Panasonic or if that decision has been already taken. But it makes sense to me that Panasonic reduces the number of different cameras. Nowadays you only make money with high end products. It makes more sense to keep the production of older generation GX and GH cameras and sell them as entry level models.
What I don’t like is the “software key” strategy…
A source said that the new Olympus high-end camera will have “advanced video features“. The camera development has nearly finished and launch is expected for very early 2019.

Please use the anonymous contact form or message me at 43rumors@gmail.com if you have details to share about this camera. Thanks!
I heard that a further FW update for G9 and GH5(s) is work in progress. Maybe it will be announced at Photokina.
I know this is a bit redundant. But In these past few days I received new multiple confirmation that the Olympus High End Camera rumor is true. And it should be announced in Q1. I am working to get some early specs…stay tuned!
