mooglinux Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I have been doing more research while waiting for my wallet to fatten up a bit, and have some new questions: What are the differences between the hacks for the GH1 and GH2? Added features, image quality, etc. Even shopping very carefully on Ebay, a gh2 will cost twice that of a gh1. Is it worth the extra money? I got to looking into Canon cameras with Magic Lantern, and that looks like a reasonable route to go as well. I saw that RAW from the 600D was in the works, so I was wondering how that (or any other small canon) compares to the gh1 or gh2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy lee Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 wait a month and buy a Panasonic G6 it is better straight out the box than a hacked GH2 Panasonic have listened to the GH2 community and made a great camera see Julian's posts on here about it as he has tested it http://www.eoshd.com/comments/topic/2660-panasonic-g6-vs-gh2-video-test/ G6 will work straight out the box no messing about transcoding RAW to DNG to Pro res etc etc like the Canon RAW hack no 45/49 second recording limit etc etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonmillard81 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 How can you recommend a camera that has minimal field testing or reports on issues/quality/reliability? I'm in a similar position...i'm between a gh3 and a 5d3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Turner Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 **** the G6 and it's 20mbps codec. The hardware is awfully nice though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
