Oh yes, I completely ignored the x in that model. I do wish Lumix would make a new updated range finder, that would be a unique model for today's market.
I totally agree. It seems like the strong suite for micro four thirds. If you're willing to play the equivalence game a FF body with a slower prime (say f/2.0-f/2.8) is generally as compact as M43 body with a fast prime (say the Oly f/1.2s). Likewise, a number of the long Oly lenses, like the 100-400, are actually FF lenses with a M43 mount. Yeah, you get the 2.0 crop factor, but if you're willing to shell out for a higher resolution FF body you can just crop.
That said, on pure size a rangefinder M43 with a somewhat slower prime can be truly compact. It seems like that's where the M43 market would be, especially with the advent of high res FF bodies that crop well like Sony's R line and A1, Nikon's Z8/Z9, and Canon's R5. Heck even Fuji's X-H2 and XT-5. But since neither Panasonic or OM Systems are making these bodies anymore they must not have been very popular :(
Easily done! I’m constantly thinking I’ve found an answer to a question about the GX9, reading for a while, and then realising it’s about the G9, and it’s not relevant to my body. It’s a shame it’s not been updated yet, I really love this little camera and think that with a few updates, it could rival the Fuji x100 series in many ways.
