In reply to Graeme G: I've got the GX8 and very pleased with it. There was a very obvious improvement in image quality than produced by the two previous Panasonic bodies I've owned. It's well built and yes still compact enough for me to take out climbing, ski touring and walking. I'm heavy on kit and although it's had a lot of knocks its now taken over 5000 images without problem. The Jessops deal is certainly good value although when your budget permits it's worth upgrading to the better quality Panasonic lenses
