The dutch website Digifotopro found the pics of a possible new Panasonic GX camera design. These are grabbed from a patent. The new GX7 camera is likely coming in one month and will be the first “rangefinder” styled Panasonic camera. The cameras has as unique feature a tilting EVF. It’s great looking camera but I hope Panasonic will not ask you too much $$$ for it 🙁

He thats a Nex6 with tiny sensor.
Yes, looks like a Nex-6, but with much better lenses 😉
A NEX-6 with the added bonus of in body IS and smaller and cheaper lenses….?
IM THROWING MONEY AT THE SCREEN BUT NOTHING IS HAPPENING
Nope, it’s a modernised Panasonic L1 with a finer range of lenses and much better looks than a Nex.
this camera is had no ugly huge lens , ha ha ha (and not LG(low grade) lens)
Nex6 is one ugly toy, while the gx7 is a handsome horse.
Yeah, at least NEX-6 had a grip that wouldn’t let the camera fly out of your hand.
The same, but with an optical viewfinder please…
even though im a NEX user and a owner of a NEX6 and 5R, i do like this design, it is quite like a NEX6 but the nice 20mm f1.7 m4/3 lens would match this really well 😀
That looks VERY good IMHO.
Yeah, it is almost a copy-cat NEX6. But that is OK by me.
It looks like the EVF tilts ! Also very good, and a first amongst the mirror-less with integrated viewfinders.
Also there are quite persistent rumors that it will have in-body OIS !! Another great step forward if that is true.
Only small niggle IMHO is that the grip is nowhere near big enough. I want a bigger and more sculpted grip.
If Panasonic makes this camera, they will go from irrelevant to very relevant for me.
>and a first amongst the mirror-less with integrated viewfinders
NEX-6/7, Olympus OM-D, Fujifilm X-E1/XPRO-1, Samsung NX20 and Nikon V1 would like to have a word with you
I meant to say “integrated tilting viewfinder”
I’m in love, especially if it has body IS.
I’m sure an add-on grip will be made by some enterprising company.
The only thing it would be missing is the lovely multi-aspec ratio sensor that my GH-2 and LX-7 have.
That’s the form factor and the kind of evf I’d want for samsung nx 30.

Throw in body IS while we’re at it
evf’s.. we don’t want evf’s we want OVF’s!
I’m not included in your “we” – I want a high quality EVF that will show me exactly what the image is going to be framed like and what will be in focus. I don’t do action stuff for update rate is not a huge deal for me.
You can do all that with a big and bright OVF.
Plus you get to see the actual colors and light nuances you see in real life
that you want to capture. You get zero of that with an EVF so for me they are utterly worthless. The thing that would be great as an addition for an OVF would be
an overlay of the histogram.

Question is: when panasonic will give at least olympus sensor IQ? we are tired of more of the same…
I like it despite the NEX-6 clone looks. The LCD appears to be a swivel one and not a half tilt.
I can see it being very useful. 🙂
I have a nex-6 and what I mostly like about that camera is the grip. If they could make the grip as big as their gh models it will be better ergonomically. Tiltable evf is an excellent idea.
