Panasonic accelerates m43 cameras production, GH4 is big on preorders

Vitaliy_Kiselev

Last week multiple sources on the web told that starting of new financial year Panasonic will focus on improving their camera division.

Only last day it become known how deep they will be thanks to leaked recording.

Digital cameras division staff will be significantly increased and focused on improving existing and introducing new amazing m43 cameras and lenses.

Andrea is slightly busy for now, he'll provide more details soon.

RRRR

Insane! It's easy to understand now why endless streams of Panasonic gear flood all dealers stock lately.

JOFO

That's good if true :-)

They just launched 42.5 and 150mm lenses.

I am just shocked In a good way.

They can be mad at VK and Andrea, as it can hurt sales of remaining stock now.

Can things get any better? I think not.

Wow that kind of bites. Looks like increased camera sales finally caught up to Panasonic ambitions. They probably had no choice but to make so good camera as GH4. They already have big number of pre-orders for them. And imagine if they will make G7 with GH4 sensor and ProRes and same price as G6.

This cant be real, I just bought GX7. :(

Should I put up my genuine µFt lenses for sale? If new ones will be better and cheaper…

They could at least give us the codes to hack the "dead" cameras

peaceonearth

Thinking about buying few more GH3 bodies.

tetakpatak

@nomad now you will have Panasonic raw bodies instead BM for your lenses.

I heard from some very reliable sources that Canon want to sell their mirrorless division to Panasonic.

The audio sounds like they're in a bathhouse. all the best business transactions happen in bathhouses right?

joethepro

Wow, this is unreal. I have a hard time believing that both major manufacturers are going to work hard on the system. This sounds like best outcome to all future m43.

Andrea saidthat source told that it was made on the phone in men's room. In fact it is beginning in mid sentence, it seems like someone turned on recording after he became interested in talk content.

To me this looks like viral marketing from Panasonic marketing. They have bad reputation for that.

There is no evidence whatsoever that Panasonic is increased the m43 camera and lenses sales.

And this video, what is it going to prove? Anonymous voices ... Come on, there have been many more rumours on the internet.

Why would anyone working for Panasonic (and not in marketing) publish such a video?

Why would anyone working for Panasonic publish such a video?

May be because he was inside toilet cubicle and no one saw him? :-)

ragnar

A bathroom clandestine recording? That's the source? C'mon.

Howdy, Stranger!
