    • I legitimately think that the consumers will eventually abandon any manufacturer that tries this. And, if they all try it together, I see a mass revolt against new models and perhaps even a movement to “older” cameras. 
    • I recently bought a new treadmill and was amazed that the high-end ones required a subscription model. I wouldn't be averse to buying a GX85 updated firmware, but to buy and re-buy the damned thing over and over again is ridiculous. Yet another reason to snap out of the specifications trance that everyone seems to be in and focus on making better videos, rather than making the same videos with better spec'd equipment.
    • Welcome to doing video!  Stills photography is so easy by comparison that comparing the two is almost impossible.  I also came from taking RAW stills into doing video, so you're on a difficult but well-worn path. Of all of my advice, this is the most important...  Don't believe anything you read - test as many things yourself as you can. I have done this over the years and I have routinely found that a third of what "everyone knows" is completely false, and another third on top of that is completely misunderstood.  It shouldn't surprise anyone, but the misconceptions and outright lies will often push you in the direction of buying things that you don't actually need, and come from the manufacturers pushing very one-sided or suspect information and then it being "re-interpreted" by consumers who are too stupid or lazy or both to question it. Best of luck!
    • I made a mistake and I can't edit anymore. Actually, I wanted to say the following: I don't like this update policy. However, i wouldn't mind paying for an upgrade to my GX85. If the camera can handle it and the upgrade is worth it, i'd rather pay €/$100 than €/$1000 for a new body. But whether the updates are worth it or not, that depends on each user. Of course, i accept payment for specific updates that are worthwhile, but i do not accept monthly subscriptions at all.
    • I have mixed feelings about this matter. I don't like this update policy. However, iI wouldn't mind paying for an upgrade for my GX85. If the camera can handle it and the upgrade is worth it, i'd rather pay €/$100 than €/$1000 on a new body. But whether the updates are worth it or not, that depends on each user. For example. Sometimes, with CinelikeD and CinelikeV activated at the same time (saved in C modes), one of these modes freezes in all photography modes. To solve this, i had to connect the camera to the HTML we all know and disable CineD and CineV. Next, I activate CineD again and save it to C1. For some reason, I can't have both profiles saved, because the camera will lock on one of them in any of the photography modes. An update that officially activates both hidden profiles would be very nice. Other things would be good too, such as: All regional framerates. That is, i have the european model (GX80), which prevents me from having 30 and 60 fps. There is a way to activate it, but it's a little tricky and i don't want to mess up the camera. I'm assuming the camera can't offer 4K recording at 50/60fps, but I would like a higher bitrate at 1080p. I wouldn't mind also having 10 bit 422 150 Mbit. Although I think the GX85 couldn't handle it, or it would heat up quickly if it could (although this is my imagination). If the camera software can be improved to have faster focusing in 4K, it would be appreciated as well. I think I'm too optimistic, at least when we speak about the GX85. However, it doesn't seem crazy to me on high-end bodies and/or more recent bodies.
