First impressions of the Panasonic GH2 are overwhelmingly positive. There was not another DSLR at Photokina by Canon or Nikon that can compete as an all-rounder. The GH2 is a complete package.

We can expect a LOT of big changes in the next hardware which will hugely improve video capabilities. EOSHD.com will be there to cover the news first hand.
