    You are probably right and I hope they will stay in business with this strategy... I still want to buy GH series in the future. :)

    They shod because the profit is made by selling in high numbers.

    They sell in smaller and smaller numbers.

    As far as I know now around 60% of all cameras is bough by 10% top earners. Hence focus on them.

    Well, they don't care for poor guys.

    They should lower their already high prices, not rise them even more!

    And they wonder how did their camera division decline so much in the last couple of years... I tell them how: with entry level cameras in 600$ territory (instead of 400$), mid range cameras in 1200$ territory (instead of 800$) and lenses which cost double as they should at launch.
