The Panasonic GX series of cameras was very similar to what we see here, and prices for them remain elevated years past their discontinuation. I'm a little surprised they haven't introduced a new model in that lineup.
The Fuji X-E5 also seems similar to this, though obviously with a different lens mount.
- yabones 9mo agoGM-5 is probably the greatest pocket-size mirrorless, and maybe the last. The GX-85 is also great, but it does have a larger grip and more of a shoulder at the top. The G-100D is also quite small, but the faux pentaprism at the top makes it just a bit too big to justify being MFT. https://petapixel.com/2025/06/28/the-panasonic-lumix-gm-5-is-the-greatest-digital-camera-ever-made/ https://petapixel.com/2025/06/28/the-panasonic-lumix-gm-5-is...

- Zak 9mo agoI'm not sure there's a lot of improvement possible purely in software with a contrast detect system and an old processor.
- jeswin 9mo agoI have a GM1, it's truly a standout camera. GM5 makes it even better. It's quite funny nobody wants to attempt similar sizes, even when the market has voted for pocketable cameras. Especially OM - with all their troubles, if it were me I'd have pivoted the company to sizes that do justice to the mount's inherent size advantage. They have a rich legacy of amazing small cameras (Trip, Pen, XA series, and the overrated mju ii) - yet it's fuji selling an order of magnitude more x-halfs than anything OM is producing.
- criddell 9mo agoIn December I bought a GX-85. I love it even though it's 9 years old and still uses micro-USB. I got a great deal on it - $300. It doesn't seem like it would take a lot to keep this line going. Bump the sensor, change the USB cable, add GPS, etc... but keep the form factor. I guess the market just isn't big enough.
