May 2014 be a good year to all! Happy New Year!

You misunderstand my words la, I mean now vis to vis $999 is already about $300 cheaper than UK of about $1299. Assuming you are able to find a 10% discount locally, that's about $899. $899/$1299 =31% discount. Assuming you get a 30% discount in UK (this is newly launched, may not be likely)...

Ha but vis to vis, not much people pays the list price here as well right? What's more locally - is about $300 (23%) cheaper in terms of list price - comes with an additional promotion of RWS Invites membership - comes with 8GB card and a leather jacket which UK isn't giving?

Cos it's 629 pounds in UK? :)

Official Hong Kong price at HK $6490 (from a blogger, although he states in Yuan, which is very high) http://www.tech24seven.com/digital-cameras-news/panasonic-released-hong-kong/

Ha, actually different manufacturers work differently. For example, a famous online retailer fights with various online retailers for market share by selling below cost, and insist manufacturers to pay them for "losses" in a bid to fight for "best price", by virtue of their market strength...

Very soon their posts will be flooded with angry posters, don't worry so much. Stupid mistake by their admin/PR agency/marcomm team managing their social networking channel.

First a Sony thread in MFT topic, now a Oly compact rumor thread in MFT... You guys really need to start learning how to post in the right place :/

Simon, you need to lose the blu tack and use black tape la! Anyways, for comparison sake, with the 20mm behind the LF1. http://instagram.com/p/fmDRIArRIi/

I'm lazier then. Either my smartphone, or just any other camera that conveniently is in my bag (recently GX7 with 20mm). Snap this the other night with my phone - http://instagram.com/p/fZZI-uLRN4/ Any zoom I need I just walk in closer :p Anyhows, let's skip whatever digressing la...

Ha tomorrow will have more lens surprise lalalala :p

Panasonic disagrees with this though ha, internal tests shows results better than GH3 for high ISO :/

E-P5 got the silver award, not gold from DPReview. Probably realized that mistake and hurriedly removed it?

Sigh. Ha. Like you say, you used to run it, and those were the days. Anyways this is getting OOS by delving deep into cost analysis, becoming a kopitiam topic and bashing of T&C. TS also mentioned it is alright to close the topic, let's stop here?

Most things in the bundle are not covered by warranty (battery, charger etc), and as TS pointed out, the main point here is on the bundled lens. As for tidy profits, I honestly and really sincerely wished that is the case, hahaha... Anyways, the onus is on the buying party to make an informed...

The lens is not sold at first hand price in the first place, you see. Kit lens is sold already at a subsidized price, when bundled with a camera body. That's why lenses when sold separately are more expensive, right?

This is just my personal opinion. Purchase of camera with kit lens - lens cost is heavily subsidized by manufacturer, with warranty coverage being attached to the entire kit Purchase of lens by itself - warranty cost is factored into the package Purchase of lens without warranty - grey market...

Simon says, "can't say anything, for sure, yet"

Ha it's too misleading when you mention may or may not beat it (GX7 vs GH3), and "sensor not being ready" kind of talk, which is where I see the point to correct it. GX7 is not tweaked GH2 sensor. Sigh. It is improved GH3 sensor. Which website gave you this idea anyway? Notice I didn't in...
