Panasonic has a utilitarian, almost Leica like bauhaus design. As mentioned, I felt the GX8 got it right, except for size, which I preferred one size smaller considering the sensor footprint.

The X-Pro2 is familiar territory as it replaced a X-Pro1 which I had since 2012. No risk there, it is a keeper. Concerning the Pen, I did not enjoy its ergonomics and the Olympus menu is something ...

That's why I depart with them as soon as I find out that they are not for me, taking the loss quickly as depreciation is steep if one waits too long. The M9 I have since 2009 and it will stay as ...

I find your inability to read and deal with facts baffling. Who said I bought the Pen without having touched, tried it at the dealer and who said I will order a GX8 online before having tried it. ...

And you really have 40 (forty) cameras-..............?

Just sold the Pen F with 17mm kit, it's a beauty designed with a "function follows form" philosophy. But I could not connect with it. Still miss the GX8 which I found too big relative to its small ...

Buying and expensive FF sensor and then trying to save money by slapping this mediocre lens to the body? Nah.

FF sensor is too much of a compromise, simply too small for me:-). Hehe, I go for really small (mft) or really big and good with medium format sensors. Anything in between is doomed.;-) The ...

To: thePhilips: You might have a GX7, congratulations. I do have a Q, am an early adopter, and had a GX8. My Q had a lens hood included and lens cap, battery, charger, leather strap;), and so do...

I am a long term Ricoh GR user, had them all, back to the film days and was an early adopter to the current generation GR (not the II). A few days ago I got my X70. You can't go wrong with either ...

How much should it cost - this good FF 24MP sensor housed in a sleek, well built no nonsense body with excellent EVF, simple UI, touch screen, fast shutter (plus E-shutter), quick start up and file...

Resistance is futile: sometimes, a lens alone justifies buying into a system. The 90mm is one of these rare gems. Go get it.

to badi: might the weight difference be the red dot?

Behave, or else I upload a picture showing my 10 m-mount lenses and 2 M bodies. It's not about "can afford" but about "it's evidently not worth the asking price".

It's not a "can afford it" question imo but more a "who wants to spend this much" on a me too lens for a dead end system.

LOL a true Leica with aperture ring and distance scale on the lens barrel. And a true bargain for a red dotted lens, as an X-Pro2 plus the 23mm f1.4 Fujinon cost almost as much;). As a Leica fan...

A pleasure to read with a lot of good information, thanks. It's almost there, the X70, but not quite. With the 24MP sensor, a f2 lens and a pop up OVF with digital information overlay it would be it.

Got my X-Pro 2 a few days ago and the fun is back. It is everything the Pro1 should have been a few years ago and more. Man did I miss an OVF, aperture rings, manual controls for iso, shutter ...

I am considering to switch because of OVF, ergonomics and Fuji lenses. But the outstanding sensor in the A7IIr might make it difficult. I recently added the Batis 85mm and man does this sensor & ...

Ken Huff and Steve Rockwell will LOVE it. The best they ever shot with, by country miles. Whoo hoo!
