A65 vs GH2 frame rates

[taikwanjo]

I have been researching for the past week a camera to recommend buying for my job as a commercial producer at a broadcast TV station. I've narrowed my choices down to Panasonic's GH2 and Sony's A65. I have a few questions I haven't been able to find definitive answers to. Hopefully someone here knows!

1. Are there any hacks out there for the GH2 that include the ability to shoot 1080p at 60 fps? This feature on the A65 is very enticing to be able to end up with overcranked footage.

2. Do any/all GH2 hacks include 1080p at 30fps? Could you point me to a higher bitrate hack that does include 30p? I notice a lot of the hacks say they allow 24p, but it's very important to me to be able to shoot 30p.

3. Has anyone here ever bricked, or heard of someone bricking a GH2? If so, how did you/they do it?

Any insight, recommendations would be most appreciated!
