評價:
I was thinking of replacing my GF-2 for a long time. Was considering quite a few cameras including the OMD EM-1 and EM-5 and also researched other options from NEX to A58 to Fuji but decided to stay with m43 for the AF speed and choice of lens (and price).
My thoughts:
NEX-6: I like the wifi; don't like the lens
NEX-5T: Like the wifi, 180 tilt mon; don't like the lens
Fuji: Forgot the model... like the look only...
A58: Don't like at all...
EM-1: Like all but the look and price and availability.
EM-5: Like all but wanted wifi
EP-5: Like all but the price
GX-7: Like all AND the price
Very straight forward. GX-7 has all the attributes that I want in a camera, one that I don't mind to bring along everywhere with a few lens (20/1.7, 14/2.5, 45/1.8, 45-175) and wifi connectivity with remote function. NFC makes the pairing very easy. Looks good with the retro look and the silver-black contrast.
BTW, I bought the whole kit at around $78xx (water la). Can't complain, can you?
