Hi,

I got my new GH1 three weeks ago and I am really enjoying it... Happy overall... However, there is one issue that's bothering me...

When I carry the camera on my shoulder, and the camera naturally tilted down, the lens slides out as I move about...

I didn't experience this before with any other lenses...

Anybody have similar problem? Is this the nature of Lumix 14-140? Or do I have a faulty lens?

Thanks a lot...

Cenk

Mine doesn't do that

Sometimes a message appears on mine saying the lens is not properly attached, and that's after not removing the lens for many hours... I wonder if they can fix that in firmware

Thanks J. Davies,

I am expecting a call from Panasonic technical guys... Let's see what they've got to say...

PhilD,

There is a recent GH1 firmware and lens version update...

I still had that message from time to time after the update
