I've had the Panasonic G7 for about three months now and i'm really pleased with it. It's pretty cheap now a days which makes it a great bang for the buck!
 

A late response but i shot a wedding this summer on the NX1 with a 12.000 mAh USB battery. No problems what so ever during the 7 hour shoot and the battery lasted all day.

The thing holding me back from investing in a small gimbal is the vertical bounce that you can see in the majority of "test videos" This gimbal, if it works as advertised, might make me open my wallet!

Auto Exposure Lock

Correct:)
Edit: Did a test with the DIS feature: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZvaamTS1kk&feature=youtu.be

Newsshooter interview with Ryan Avery from Veydra about their new lenses: https://vimeo.com/124786321 01:20 he says that their new anamorphic lens is for the GH4 and "the new panasonic camera" 
So, hopefully no fixed lens

Shot with Samsung NX1, 30/2, 45/1.8 and 50-200/4-5.6. A shoulder rig was used for most of the shots, especially handy when using the 50-200 @ 200. I used Gorilla Grain 4k for the first time but not I'm not sure if I'm satisfied with the settings i used. More testing is needed. Edited, stabilized and graded in Premiere.

One month has passed since i bought my NX1 and i thought i would share my thoughts so far.
Coming from full frame as my main camera i was hesitant to the change in the beginning. I started my hobby with a Canon 550D/t2i and then later upgraded to a 5D Mark 3 which was really pleasant, i loved the full frame look. The choice to abandon both Canon and full frame did not come easy but a Panasonic G6 (Micro 4/3 entry level camera) helped a lot in the transition.
The NX1 really fits well in my hands and after a not so steep learning curve of the controls i feel comfortable to just pick it up and shoot. I have pretty large hands so when i changed from a 550D/t2i to a 5D I pretty much decided to never again buy a smaller camera. That didn’t work out as I later bought, tried and sold the A7s as i was reminded why i don’t like small cameras. This is of course a very personal opinion, i know that many people prefer portability. Somehow the NX1, being smaller than a 5D, feels really good to hold for hours.
 
Image quality of both stills and video are great, just great. You can throw whatever specs and lab test at me you want saying that the NX1 is inferior in dynamic range and what not but i just love the sensor and the colors it produces. With that being said, im not a professional and i don’t have professional needs. What i also like to point out that this is a $1500 camera, not an Alexa. And what you're getting for your $1500 is in my opinion a very capable camera.
 
On a lot of videos posted from the NX1 there have been comments on banding and macroblocking, including my own. As there is no/almost no banding or macroblocking in the raw files this is a result of transcoding. I use Samsung Movie Converter which comes with the camera and it’s clearly not the best option yet every other software i’ve tested seems to fail me in some way (Maybe i should invest in a new computer?). Still waiting for Adobe to support H265!
 
To sum it up. I feel that i have finally found a camera that will stay with me for a long time. I'm not over the "wow i have a new camera let's see what it can do"-phase but i have high hopes for this plastic monster. This camera has been discussed a lot on this forum but if there’s any questions i'll be happy to answer them.
 
Here’s my latest video shot with the NX1, 16/2.8, 30/2.0 and 45/1.8. Shot in both 4K and slow motion 1080p. Standard picture profile with sharpness and contrast set to -5. No change to luminance or master black levels. Edited, stabilized and graded in Adobe Premiere with Visioncolor LUTs Osiris M31 and KDX as base and then RGB Curves. No sharpening in post.

Thanks. ​You and me both!
 
I actually had the A7s for a while but I ended up selling it. Iv'e seen people create amazing stuff with it and it's without a doubt a very capable camera. But, we didn't really bonded.

Great suggestions from everyone!
I would very much like to see them remove the crazy "hiss" sound (some sort of auto gain control feature?) when recording to internal and external microphone.
