I agree with all you guys. I was figuring this camera and lens was going to go for around 800 dollars. It is still so new the whole micro-three/fourths concept. the Sony HX-1 compact has great video and excellent stereo sound. For under 500 most folks will probably go for that.
no comparison between this and the sony man..... the glass on this camera is worth a grand to begin with. continuous focus 1080 24/60i blah blah blah....at the end of the day this camera is hot dude..
$1500? It's extremely expensive. For this price I'll buy Nikon D90 + 16-85 VR. For my opinion max. price for GH1 is $1000 (with lens). Again, $1000 is maximum price. It's mean, that $700-800 (with lens) is OK. IMHO.
If you haven't used any four third lens (branded Zuiko, Leica) or pro camrcorder (HD Canon & Sony), don't talk nonsense. There are plenty of medium-level lenses that cost over 500 USD and most HD camcorder cost 500 USD. 1500 is a bit pricey but it is just released price, 1000 might be okay (quality of lens is not yet confirmed). 500 USD, what an idiot not to buy it!

Thanks for the input Hag. Despite the cost, the HX-1 sounds like a fantastic camera.

Pricing released for the Lumix GH1 for $1500 with the 14-140mm, who would buy that camera for that price? I even doubt buying it at just $500.00.

Yea I guess $700 is very fair price for this cam. It might eventually come to that prices as demand dies down.
