(FT5) Surprise: Panasonic withdraws plan to release the GF7!

The GF7 design patent.

It’s a while that I am working on that rumor but I am now 99% certain it’s true. Panasonic decided to withdraw the planned GF7 release! There will be no new GF camera model this year!

As you know since the GF1 release (glorious camera!!!) Panasonic upgraded the camera every year in Spring. And we also found patents showing the new GF7 model (see image on top). But according to our top sources Panasonic decided to focus on more “profitable” camera development. It’s uncertain yet if there will be a new GF model in 2015. Do you think this is a wise decision?

The currently cheapest GF is the GF3 for $149 via [shoplink 45677 ebay]Samys on eBay (Click here)[/shoplink].
