We’ve been hearing a lot of news hinting that Panasonic could introduce a new LX8 with a Micro Four Thirds sensor and now there’s word there will also be a new GM2 with a built-in EVF. 43 Rumors has received a tip suggesting as much and the camera could even come with native 4K recording like the GH4. We’re not sure if the EVF will interfere with the incredible pocketablity of the first GM1 but Panasonic could adopt a pop-up viewfinder as seen with the Sony RX100 Mark III
There aren’t any other details or specs to go on—but this is the second time we’ve heard Panasonic will release a new interchangeable MFT camera. If the rumors are true this would make the GM2 the world’s smallest compact system camera with a built-in EVF. Panasonic LX8 is also supposedly on the horizon that purportedly will also utilize a MFT senor.
It would make sense Panasonic would introduce new cameras soon. After all Photokina is just a month away. There have not been a lot of early reports outing what Olympus might have in store for us, but it seems like new tech will be making waves in the Micro Four Thirds world this year.
