Primary usage is for video or photo?  If for photo, there are other very good options for that price.  For videos, I can't say except Panasonic does make some decent video cameras.

its for video

 

OK I would say, if this camera is your first option for buying one, go online and check out some reviews.  See what experienced photographers and videographers have to say about it.  I can provide a few links from sources that seem to provide unbiased judgements.

Secondly, what are your choices for a camera?

What do you want to do with a camera?

What are your requirements in a camera?

The G6 is a good video camera but MFT cameras are pretty poor in low light, so I would say an APSC DLR would be a better option

 

OR save up for the G7
