I CAN’T waitt. I bought the gh1 back when the price was 1200, but returned after a week since I found out the GH2 was coming out soon. Good choice on my part I think. I hope the Gh2 prices aren’t too high though.
So… since the 14-140mm lens alone sells for 800 dollars on Amazon, that means that essentially one can have a GH1 body for 150 bucks now…
Any rumors on the GH2 specs?
That was a third party price. Amazon was sold out so they showed another company that has them. Amazon finally got it back in stock and it’s $1,179.95
admin,
do you know any specs and latest rumors of gh2 and gf2, and their possible anounce date? Please just post anything you know. I understand that any rumors could be wrong. Just can’t wait.
Hi,
I will enter the micro43 world sooner or later and am currently thinking of buying either the GH1 if the prices come down again or the GH2 when it is released. I particularly like the 14-140mm kit lens and maybe the 100-300mm lens later on. Sooo…
Does anybody know if the GH2 will be released with the same 14-140mm kit lens or another one? Because if it was another one, I would probably by the GH1 kit, later on the GH2 and the resell the GH2 kit lens and the GH1 body (or keep it as a second body).
I appreciate any ideas about this “attack plan”. Thanks!

So far, Panasonic has equipped every newly announced camera with different kit lens, so I expect GH2 to have a new one. Unfortunately, G2 and G10 got a worse lens than G1. But, GH2 being flagship and video orientated should get a better and more capable glass than existing 14-140 ( which is itself excellent ). We know that GF2 will get a 14mm F2.5 lens, but what lens will come with GH2 is a question for admin 🙂 …
