The GH3 is in Stock at Amazon (Click here) and Samys (Click here).
UPDATE: The website TimeLaps.org got informed by Panasonic that they are will fix the intervalometer issue with the next firmware! Great!

I wish they would also make a timelapse fix for the lx7!
Need this fix for the Olympus OMD. So far I use the triggertrap, but its always an extra device/cable/etc.
the omd has timelapse?
None of the current Pen/OMD/DSLR cameras have time lapse built into the firmware (they have had in several C-*/SP-* bodies over the years, but it usually gets removed in the next generation).
However, most of the above cameras take a wired shutter release, and you can connect Trigger Trap or other time lapse controllers to the camera via a Pixel cable. The Pen/OMD/DSLR cameras that don’t support a wired shutter release are: E-500, E-330, and E-PL1. The E-1, E-3, E-5, and E-300 (E-300 with portrait grip) use the RM-CB1 shutter release (and CL-CB1 pixel cable) while the others use the RM-UC1 shutter release (and CL-UC1 pixel cable).
so theres no “fix” needed for the omd, it needs to be added completely. I doubt it
Will the firmware update include any other fixes?
The firmware update will include a fix for future firmware updates.
One of the problems with this topic is that almost no one can actually test their intervalometer accurately, in camera or external. My GH3s intervalometer is accurate to more than 1/10th of a second, which is excellent performance for most applications. Almost everyone else is responding to one highly publicized test of questionable methodology. One thing that is certain is that there are a variety of small problems with individual samples of the GH3, and really everyone is dieing for a firmware upgrade (nudge nudge wink wink).
Anyone with a smartphone, tablet, or digital stopwatch can use one of the testing methods posted here: https://timelapse.org/forums/threads/gh3-for-timelapse-so-far.370/
Does that mean hacking with GH3 come early..?
