OMG, First!
GX1 with pancake X zoom kit lens has a much lower price in Hong Kong.
Btw. A body only is even higher price than a normal zoom kit in Amazon?
Will the Silver body ever be in stock! 🙁 My Barcelona trip is ruined. I’m not taking the 7D no matter what.
Damn the production issues. Rant over 😛

the gx1 for 649$ with X lens
I still think it’s funny that I purchased a silver OMD about a month or so ago, and had to wait that long for a black one to come out, when it did, I swapped my silver for black, and I am a happy camper!
Someone please explain to me why anyone would want a zoom lens that starts at 28mm (14mm on MTF)?! 24mm is the minimum wide I will accept…. And now Sony is coming out with a new P&S that only starts at 28mm, but it’s a high end P&S…. Hopefully Panasonic will come out with the, what is it? LX7? And it will be 24mm starting, and have a larger sensor than the Canon S100 I currently carry….
If I cared a lot about the look of a camera, I wouldn’t have bought a GH2. I think it is kind of ugly, but I generally love all of the external controls on the body…better than my D90 in that respect.
But man, if i wanted a compact MILC, that Silver GX1 is a sexy little beast.
The silver one really is beautiful! I bought an OM-D….but I just can’t sell mine, with LVF2. It’s smaller, lighter and simpler to use. It compliments the OM-D nicely. it’s a great camera even if it doesn’t have the Sony sensor…
besides the looks, ive never understood why you would choose the gx1 over the g3. it costs more, but doesnt include the evf or articulated screen..
I agree with B Bob , I love my GX .
It carry the spirit of the legendary GF1 .
Even with OMD , The GX still hold on to it’s special place .
As for size, the GX1 is also significantly smaller than the G3
Enticing price on the 14-42 x lens. I clicked the Amazon link and bought it. Thanks for the info. (Maybe it’ll drop another 40 bucks tomorrow? :>)
