strange how once a camera goes out of production, $60 off is a savings. I got my GX1 body for $200 a year ago.
I did to… 200
Most cameras that go out of production, no longer go on sale.
In fact, some go Up in price.
It’s so true…a year ago they were giving the GX1’s away…$200 for body-only. When I sold mine the new sensors had come out and were just so much better…There is something flat and anemic about the sensor in the GX1. Love the camera setup but could just never love the rendering from that sensor…switched over to Oly and never looked back. 🙂
Amen Jeff. Admin: unless the GX1 is selling for $200 or less it’s not a deal. You are really listing a non-deal. Love my GX7 and hope that Panasonic creates a real deal on that camera (body-only) then I might pick up a second body. Otherwise I’m saving up for a A7S or GH4.
Gx1 for $199 is a okay deal. Gx1 for $499 is a ripoff imo.
Note Amazon has the EVF finder for the GX-1 at $149 – best price I’ve seen on it.
I have used Panasonic since the G1 came out in 2008, and the GX-1 is my favorite body so far. I didn’t appreciate it until I handled a friend’s, but I bought one the next day after that. A really nice, solid feeling camera, yet very compact. I bought the second body a few weeks later. But I find the tile-up EVF almost essential. I have 1 finder for the 2 bodies and while I don’t always use it, or even carry it with me there are times when it really makes the camera.
I just checked BHphoto, and they are still showing the GH4 as out of stock.
B&H sent me an email 2 days ago notifying me that the GH4 was in stock. By the time I got this notification I had already purchased from Samy’s in LA. Samy’s is located close enough to Panasonic U.S. that they can send a driver over to pick up GH4’s and other Panasonic stuff.
If you really want a GH4 and don’t want to wait another month, call Samy’s … they took really good care of me.
Thanks Duffy! I will call Samy’s tomorrow.
If $499 is a deal for GX1, a better deal is NEX-6 for $519 at amazon.
Like everyone else has said already this would have been a deal if it was $399 or less, for this combo. Actually, should be less now that I think about it, considering both the gx1 and the 14-42pz have been discontinued.
A deal? 500 bux with no manual controls? Slow and crappy lens? No thanks.
Not a good deal on the GX7. Last November when it was sort of new it sold from Amazon, B&H, others, for $852 with the same kit lens.
So is the admin pretty much saying that yes, you can get the gx1 for potentially $100’s less but the few bucks he might make on the click referral is worth his readers getting the shaft?
Shop around people.
I paid exactly that much for my GX1 kit 18 months ago. That isn’t a deal. At all.
$500 for the outdated GX1? No thanks Jeff.
“The Panasonic GX1 with 12-42mm X lens”
Did you just invent a new lens?
And $900 for GX7 does not sound like a deal. Did they raise prices somewhere along the way before taking something “off”?
