Thanks Vitaliy for the doing this. I just discovered the GH2 for me now and it is all VERY interesting what's going on in the "scene". So far I filmed with the Sony PD-150P which is old and damaged by now and I never thought I could afford something new with modern quality standards within the next five years or so. This is like Xmas and birthday together and if the hack works again .. it will be just awesome!
>>Will it be possible for European models to have 30 frames @ 1080i and 60 frames @ 720p? >It all ready is. Go to setup menu and select video output as NTSC.
No it isn't. I tried now and even with output set to NTSC, video is captured at 50fps.
Flying off for about a month to shoot my 1hr long doc. Vitaly, good luck in your work. If you succeed in 2-3 weeks, it may have dramatic impact on what I'll get back with.

>Can anyone tell what the difference 1.0 and 1.0E? And where i can download 1.0E and how to upgrade?
I do not know anything about 1.0. Only firmware versions that I know of are 1.0C, 1.0D and 1.0E. All show up in version information as 1.0. And you can't get 1.0E as it is not publically available.
>of course, completely untested state Of course! But I guess that to test it should be loaded on a GH2 ... I doubt you'll have some kind of software emulator.. Right?
>are you already able to load any new (modified) firmware on GH2?
Right now I do not have a body, some software is not ready anyway, and we need proper patches also (they are in half baked, and, of course, completely untested state).
In upcoming days I'll be doing various boring things, like rewriting few IDA scripts, addign some code to utilities so thay could be used for GH2, etc.
Hi Vitaly, thank you for all your job. I just made a report with my (EN)GH2. It's about 3D printers, Fab Labs in France and the coming revolution of open source objects. It's called "Fabuleux Labos", lasts 3', has english subtittle and I really should like you to watch it http://www.youtube.com/user/PlaneteReporter , in the playlist "Finalistes..." or/and in the thumb-index «Voter» if you like it. As many Europans, I wish 25p for avchd and hdmi, and 70% zebra. Thanks again, Olivier
