Well I bought one using your link.
But only becuase I wanted a 14-42 “PZ” lens, and not because I wanted a GF5.
You may sell the GF5 and you have a lens for $100 🙂
I really want to buy one just because it’s cheap! >.<
I have to save my pennies though. :'(
Admin, look at this: http://photorumors.com/2013/04/11/sony-nex-7n-panasonic-lf1-canon-eos-70d-olympus-e-pl6-rumors/
Yep I will post this soon but I think it’s a wrong rumor!
germany.. 600-700$… great.
I ordered one. The price is right and I can use my GF3 case, battery and 14mm lens.
Makes upgrading a snap. Since I don’t like the GF6 this is perfect for me.
The GF6 looks like it’s going to be a better camera in many ways. It has a better sensor (but not as good as the new Olympus sensor), and a tilting LCD, and wifi.
I’m not a fan of the GF2 I still have one lying around which I bought some time ago because it came with a 14mm lens for the same price as just the lens. This seems to be a trend with Panasonic. If there’s a lens you want that’s also sold as a kit, if you wait long enough you can get a free camera with your lens.
Yeah. My advice to anybody looking at the GF line is never pay more than $100 for body only or more than $0 if you are getting it with a lens. That isn’t a knock on the camera by any means. I have a GF3 I picked up as a second body because I wanted the 14mm and it is actually kind of cool, but at the time I got the GF3 for essentially nothing the street price of the GF5 was running hundreds of dollars more. And there just isn’t hundreds of dollars of improvement in the GF5 to justify that. Same with the GF5 vs the GF6. Why pay such a huge premium for a trivial sensor upgrade? Especially since Oly’s competing model is offering the vastly improved latest sensor for roughly the same price.
PANY created their own problem,.by making a toy camera,.its really hard for panasonic to convince the market just to buy their camera,.after their blunder with dumb down GFline
