Welcome to the Camera Dome :)
I just added the upcoming Panasonic G9 to the Stock Status Tracker, and surprise-surprise, both the Amazon itself listing and the B&H Photo listing have a January 15 estimate! The original Panasonic estimate was for late February. So if two major retailers have the same estimate, that’s a good sign!
Obligatory screenshots to make sure I did not post this while sleep-walking/sleep-blogging, first B&H and then Amazonia 🙂
A dive into the non-lightning deals at Amazon has surfaced some potentially interesting sales as follows. Since these are not lightning deals, they typically last longer, they are part of the “Savings & Sales” part of the Gold Box:
