Panasonic dedicated to the future of the LX line
Some key points from a recent Eprice interview with Panasonic representatives:
- The Panasonic Lumix LX line (LX5) will continue to exist independent of the Lumix G product line (the Panasonic LX 6 is expected to have a new 1 inch sensor).
- Contradicting report that the upcoming 12-35mm and 35-100mm Lumix X lenses will not have power zoom. Previous reports indicated the new Lumix X lenses will be "motorized" with POWER O.I.S. The two new lenses will not have constant f/2.0 aperture in order to keep the size small.
- Panasonic may consider adding rotating LCD screen to future GX and GF models.
