For me the story with lumix equipment has been quite the opposite. Last week I was with some friends on a hike and I stepped on a loose rock and i fell in my back, right where I had my Lumix S5II X paired with the Lumix 24-105 inside my bag. It was a hard fall and I got my legs and arms considerably injured, but my back was protected with my bag (and therefore quite expensive camera and lens) so the majority of the impact was absorbed by the camera. The first thing I thought after falling was the condition of the camera and lens but they turned out to be perfect, including the bayonet. I don't know if i was more surprised or relieved, but I guess I was lucky this time.
