Shame if no there will be no GX7 replacement. Great little camera.
I can understand if the Panasonic exec are wanting to reign in their imaging department after the savaging of some camera sectors by the smartphone onslaught,. But don’t throw the baby out with the bath water.!
It is sad to see GX7 discontinued. It should have been sold around 700usd. The GX7 update would have been the best good looking and functional mirrorless in M43 land. Really love the design and joy of shooting with GX7
Discontinued? As of today, 12/6/2014, it is still for sale on the Panasonic website. http://shop.panasonic.com/shop/cameras-and-camcorders-lumix-digital-cameras-interchangeable-lens-models
They are asking $799, which is about $100 more than B&H or Amazon. Plus B&H was giving a $100 gift certificate.
So if they are discontinuing, it is taking a long time to do so.
Love mine, and hope they continue to upgrade (weather sealing, perhaps). If only someone would figure out how to dissipate heat from 4k video in a small body. Wouldn’t a GXx with 4k video be something?
