I just received following mail:
“Hi. I’ve seen you rumor on GH2 coming in 2Q 2010. That would concur with my information. As I live in Korea, where there is no import of GH1, I contacted sales dept. asking if they will import in March GH2. The answer was, yes they are planning to import all GH models from now on, but GH2 will be release same time as in Japan….by the end of summer. I don’t know how reliable is sales dept. of Panasonic Korea, but they seems confident that GH2 won’t be on the market before the summer is over. Hope they are wrong, but combing it with what you posted today seems like G2 will be on PMA and GH2 later on this year.”
I don’t know if we can trust sales dept. I hope he doesn’t tell the truth!

Interesting rumour and backs up what my Panasonic marketing sources in Asia told me with regards the shutter-less GH2 rumour – PMA is far too early for the camera to be ready and it will be the 2nd half of the year for the GH2 release.
At least that is what the marketing people, and it seems now the sales people are telling us! Now I would like to contact an engineer 🙂
Let me know what the engineer says 😉
