If you've been on the fence about this camera, now's probably the time to buy - they've dropped the price to $500:

They say it's a temporary reduction for the summer, and that the price will return to $1000 at the end of august - I'd assume that just means they're clearing inventory and version II will be announced then. At the current price though the camera's an amazing deal compared to any of the DSLRs in the same price range. It can be a pain to work with, but the quality it's capable of is pretty amazing, and the recent batch of firmware updates has addressed most of the original issues it had.
Adorama's offering $100 off if you get it with a speedbooster. I was thinking of picking up a GH4, but may just go with the pocket for now at this price - the camera, a speedbooster and the sigma 18-35 would run the same as the GH4 body alone.
