First GH2 hands-on review

Go to last post
I am aware...
I know what I can get from raw files of both Nikon D300 and Panasonic GH1.

The important thing that any photographer has to know is the limitations of the camera.
I've seen a lot of photos taken wit A55; very promising.

I'm waiting for examples from GH2 under challenging situations, not only ISO 160.
 
there is any fast zeiss prime lens that give you a 28mm FOV (in 35mm Terms) ?

maybe i m ignorant and i dont know..but if you find a 28mm FOV AF lens (f2 or F1.8) tomorrow i go and buy the A55

they invested a lot of money for 4/3...lens many pro lens (also very costly...i m asking how many 300mm f2.8 they sold..maybe 1000???and now that the most innovative body is a EP1L sensor in a E3 body....) ...camera are almost dead in 4/3 (not MICRO) and if they continue so NO camera sales = no lens sales...

To be honest, is there one for m4/3? The pancake f/2.5 is the fastest 14mm currently available for m4/3 (still, quite fast enough for most uses).

Still, I see no point in the SLT technology, other than being able to use the current A-mount lenses.

The APS-C is bigger than m4/3 argument is also moot. If the GH2 offers indeed 1 stop better high ISO than GH1, then it will be almost on par with the best APS-C, and at similar resolution too.

The way they phrase it: 'Our first impression was...' I expected some kind of qualification later on. But it's all good news so far!

"Our first impression was, “wow, this thing is really fast to focus!” Panasonic claims AF speeds as fast as 0.1 second with the 14-140mm lens set to its widest setting - and indeed, we found that focus acquisition was basically instantaneous at that focal length, even in the relatively dim lighting of the stand. What was possibly even more impressive though was that it focussed almost as quickly with the lens zoomed all the way in to 140mm - it was almost scary to see a completely blurred subject standing at the other end of the room snap into focus in a fraction of a second. Of course further testing needs to be done to see if this blazing speed doesn’t compromise accuracy, but our first impressions were extremely favourable."

It baffles me when the quality of a body is reduced to a single component, no matter how central the sensor is. That is assuming of course that everything else being equal, the E5 is no different than the E3, which is an implicit statement that I am not willing to support right away.

It has been said a zillion time, the Sony Alpha-900 and the Nikon D3x both share the same sensor. But they just ain't the same beast.
