    I reconfirm that works both jpeg and raw, at least the send while recording (which is what I'm interested) kinda a very painfully hyper slow tethered mode. how I miss my usb cable and easily tether away to the moon and beyond, snif

    New firmware is avaliable.

    1."Low Light AF" is added that makes it possible to set focus on the subject in low-lit situations (-3EV).

    2."Silent Mode" is added which suppresses electronic shutter, shutter sound, operation sound and flash emission with a single setting.

    3."Exposure Comp. Reset" is added which resets the setting of exposure compensation to ±0 whenever the camera is turned off or the shooting mode is changed.

    4.Performance of AF is enhanced in use with H-PS14042 and H-PS45175.

    5.Connection problem with Apple Mac computers via Wi-Fi is fixed

    But the point of a mirrorless camera is to keep the size down and the GH3 makes it the size of a DSLR. Additionally, they tried to jam pack a ton of buttons on the camera which didn’t totally work out for the ergonomics. Seriously, there are around five custom function buttons all over the place. Additionally, coming from the OMD and working with Leicas before, I really missed the feeling of those classical knobs and dials in just the right places. This felt a lot more like a DSLR–and may therefore also appeal to a whole nother level of customer. I’m obviously not that person.

    Quite weird opinion. For me GH3 is too small.

    Technically, with Panasonic releasing another GH3 firmware update, wouldn't the development efforts for a potential GH3 hack start over? IANAP.

    @Vitaliy_Kiselev

    Where is the discussion topics and update of the GH3 Hack. Thank you

  • FrankLanternFrankLantern

    Great idea gib...simple and effective!!

  • valdi99valdi99

    That seems to be a bug, obviously.

  • maxrmaxr
    it would be useful to have the screen info re-appear if the eye sensor detects movement behind the camera

    that is as simple and as good an idea gets, @gib :-)

    it would be useful to have the screen info re-appear if the eye sensor detects movement behind the camera

    It would save having to touch the camera to get the info back on the display

  • valdi99valdi99

    Santamail - that was brilliant :)))) However true, same effect...

  • frezerplfrezerpl

    haha, good one but I was hoping for more serious answer :(

  • Vitaliy_KiselevVitaliy_Kiselev

    Is there any website where you can write to Panasonic about firmware updates, ideas and request for firmware updates?

    Yes - http://www.the-north-pole.com/santamail.shtml

    Hello, I'm new here and I'm GH3 user. I'm happy with the camera but it has its weak points. One of them is wi-fi connectivity with PC (even after 1.1 firmware update) and the second thing which annoys me is that it's impossible to use focus assist during recording movies. I'm mostly using manual vintage lenses which are cheaper and sometimes better then expensive primes (this is of course my personal opinion) and if Panasonic won't give us focus peaking, maybe at least they'd enable focus assist during recording. Is there any website where you can write to Panasonic about firmware updates, ideas and request for firmware updates?

    Notice for DMC-GH3 Firmware Update...no piking on GH3 :-(

  • SuperSetSuperSet

    They need to change their text. It's not released yet and won't be until July.

    I remember reading about someone stating that it would lead to OLED burn-in but why wouldn't you want it to be left on or configurable when using an HDMI external monitor?

  • Vitaliy_KiselevVitaliy_Kiselev

    Seems to be good news that they're still working on it. But at the risk of sounding like a nag, they still aren't making the Display Info Disappearing configurable?

    Are you able to read previous posts of this topic? As they have very good explanation why it is not possible to do. Such thing will lead to display issues and huge amount of service repairs.
