GH3 Panasonic GX7 : GH3 in a Range-Finder Style Body...

Very small, 24p, IBIS, built-in EVF, m43 flexibility, good image... this looks to check all the boxes for how I'd use such a camera... except no mic input. SO close...
 
What intrigues me is that the camera body has optical image stablization. So my old Nikons, etc. can be stablized on them. Might be a good camera to fly on RC helicopters.
 
Built in IS :cheesy:
But at the price point I`d rather opt for a BMCC pocket. Although the GX7 probably is easier to handle and a better (or true) "every-day in my pocket" camera...
 
A couple of things from the ephotozine preview:

Full HD Video 60/50p (in body IS not active)

When using Panasonic OIS lenses, the camera will prioritise lens based IS as this is better than the in camera stabilisation. Unfortunately, the in camera sensor-shift image stabilisation is not available while recording video.

That's too bad, but this nevertheless looks like a cool little camera. The preview also mentions that the GX7 has a new sensor. It will be interesting to see how it performs.
 
Wait, it has IBIS?? Awesome. I wish the GH3 had that, it would make using my Olympus 75mm a lot easier!
