 According to trusted sources of 43rumors the upcoming Panasonic camera will have same 16MP sensor as of Panasonic GX80 camera, I can’t believe in this rumor since February, 2016 Japanese publication Nikkan, reported that next GH series camera is arriving with 6K video recording @ 30frames per second.
If Panasonic GH5 is coming with a 16MP sensor then there is no option left to record video above than 4K, since to record a 6K video we need at-least a 24MP sensor.
Will update you soon as we get any new info

Nikon DL 18-50mm is the only camera with 1″ sensor that features Hybrid AF system, hence un-doublty the DL will do fastest AF among all the other compact camera of its range.
On the other side we have Panasonic SZ1 camera that features bit better ISO range, more shutter speed and better image stabilization system.
At the end if we look at the specification comparison table we see Panasonic ZS1 more good compared to the Nikon DL 18-50, however if you need more fast AF you must go with Nikon DL 18-50.

Panasonic ZS1 vs Canon G3X. The Canon G3X features same sensor size and resolution as of Panasonic ZS1 although we have a lot of difference among them.
The Pansonic ZS1 features better image stabilization system compared to Canon G3X camera, the 5 axis based Image stabilization system helps to combat camera shakes and manage slower shutter speed upto 4.5 stops.
The ISO range of the the camera is better than Canon G5X, the Panasonic ZS1 features ISO range upto 25600 on the other hand the Canon G5X camera is limited to 12800.

According to a latest patent surfaced over the web Panasonic is working on 12-100mm lens. As we all know Panasonic already have 12-35mm lens but that 12 to 35 mm lens features constant aperture throughout the zoom range on the other hand the latest document suggest that lens will arrive with a variable aperture from 4.0 to 5.8.
I was expecting a better and fixed aperture based pro kit zoom lens from Panasonic, but I am disappointed after reading the patent document, the the 12-100mm range is excellent but the starting aperture of the lens is 4.0 which is not acceptable at all.
Panasonic says – the present disclosure provides a compact and lightweight zoom lens system having a short overall length of lens system as well as excellent optical performance.

 According to latest rumors the upcoming Panasonic GH5 / GH6 camera is coming with Sony made sensor, according to the tipster of 43rumor the Sony 18mm X 13mm M43 sensor will be used in the upcoming GH5 camera. take a look what the tipster said
Sony has an 18.9mm*13mm M43 sensor designed for Panasonic that could be used in GH5. Very high-end, 24 channel super fast readout speed that BIONZX could not keep up with. Only Panasonic can fully unleash the potential of this chip right now.
It clearly means that GH5 is coming with a superior sensor and ultra-fast image processor. The camera is set to arrive on Photokina 2016.
A look back: We have told you earlier Panasonic GH6 / GH5 will arrive with a option to record 6K video we have also published earlier that Panasonic is working on next generation of image processors to support 6k and 8K video modes.

According to information coming from unofficial sources Panasonic representatives denied the possibilities if entering into the fullframe mirrorless market. Just few day’s ago we have reported that Olympus is preparing to enter in fullframe mirrorless market gain more market share.
The Main parts of the interview are
Q: Any possibility for multi-aspect again?
A: We didn’t gave the multi-aspect up yet. That said, we’re considering it with the market flows.
Q: Did GM line go away?
A: In Europe we’re successful with GH, G and GX, while we’re most profitable with GF in Asia. GM sales didn’t came up to our expectations, so we’re adjusting the timing for release.
Q: Is it possible to improve AF performance on 4K/30p technologically?
A: It’s possible.
Q: Then is it possible as well on GX8, G7 via firmware upgrade?
A: We’re considering. As processor-image processing engine- allows we’ll find the way out.
Q: What’s going on the organic sensors?
A: We’re on the way of development. That’s all I know for now, and I hope the sensor to come in M4/3 as well.
Q: UHD goes to 8K in the end. Can we have the 8K on M4/3 sensors?
A: Personally I expect the M4/3 sensor allows 24MP at maximum. I doubt if M4/3 sensor could offer more than that MPs considering pixel density matter.
Q: Then we should have an organic sensor as a prior condition for 8K, right?
A: (Smiling)I think so. Yet I have nothing to say about organic sensors.
Q: How about GH5?
A: My apologies, but I’m not allowed to tell anything of it. We’re on the development.
Q: Would FF ever comes from Panasonic?
A: We’re not considering FF. The beauty of M4/3 is its compactness and we’re maximizing its value in that regard.
Q: Any comments for tiny grainy noises?
A: It’s all about sensor density, so I can’t say if it would get improvements soon. We’re taking it into our account as well.
The above is what OP presented. I found some additional informations on comments section. It looks like from another participant of the (same) meeting.
Q: Does panasonic have any plan for retro-designed cameras like X100 or PEN-F?
A: We don’t.
Q: Would every forthcoming cameras have 4K? If they would, then do they have same 4K features?
A: I expect they’ll do have 4K all, yet I’m not sure if their features and performance would be same.
Q: Could existing models like GF7 acquire 4K via firmware update?
A: I doubt it Processor-wise.
BTW Olympus is interested in making fullframe camera – More Confirmation: Olympus Working on a Fullframe Mirrorless Camera
