I'm looking at purchasing the Panasonic G80/G85 to replace my DSLR (Canon EOS 30D and Tamron 17-50 F2.8) as I've not used it due to it's size and weight.

Currently, I have a LX100 which I use as a carry around compact so looking for something with interchangeable lens. Having looked at a number of APS-C cameras I have decided against any due to the price of the lenses compared to M4/3.

Right now I can get the Panasonic G80 with the lens kit for £650 after the £100 rebate promotion.

In saying this, there is speculation Canon and Nikon will make a great push for their mirrorless ranges and with Photokina this year, I am wondering if I should just wait or make the plunge now? I don't want to invest into an ecosystem only to find that it was the wrong choice.
 
Purchased a new Panasonic GX80 with 12-32 kit lens for £309 and a 2 year warranty, its a bargain at this price.

I'll make do with this till Photokina, hopefully there'll be some nice developments in the mirror-less sector.
