An anonymous source at MirrorlessRumors reported that:

Panasonic lx8 comming soon.On July 16!Build in EVF and bigger Sensor.looks similar to the lx7

I cannot confirm via trusted sources if the rumor I got is correct. Hope to have an answer soon. For now this is ranked FT2 only! But this would become a serious competitor of the newly announced Sony RX100M3 (specs here). This is the first compact camera with pop-up EVF. I also don’t know yet how large the new sensor could be. Doubt it will be as big as the 1 inch sensor in the Sony!

By the way, the current LX7 sells with $95 off at [shoplink 46356 ebay]BigValue (Click here)[/shoplink]. Total price  is $305 only.
