Yeah, I have no idea how to do it myself so the Hot-Blok was the best (and really the only) solution I could find. I am always looking to keep costs low, but once I got the lens I was determined to...

Rob, the key to everything is that HawkWoods Hot-Bloc. I currently have THIS http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005LT79VI/ref=oh_details_o01_s01_i00 Sony battery connected to it and everything works...

Every year I put together a video for my daughters' cheer squads. Here is the one i just did for my oldest daughter.

Shot with a hacked GH1 with multiple lenses,...

I have done a couple of weddings for people I know. I haven't provided a long form version of the wedding, mainly because of lack of resources and coverage, but I do provide a 12-15 minute video...

If anyone is looking for a way to power the zoom on your b4 lens, I have a suggestion. I bought this:...

Jealous.

I don't know what cheap batteries Bruce Foreman bought, but they must have been cheap indeed. I have plenty of cheaper, 3rd party batteries for my GH1's and they work just as well as the Lumix...

Nice work! I liked the song, too!

Aww, that was too cute! Great song and great closing shot.

My family did that vacation last year for the first time. It was when my GH1 was still stock. I used the 14-140 and the 20mm 1.7 for that...

So it appears to be a Mac issue, or more exactly, a Quicktime issue on Macs. And it only is an issue if the footage is played on a Mac. So why, then, should you transcode all your footage?

I wouldn't worry about those. I think they are rubber covers for very small adjustment screws, but I could be wrong. I never had any reason to mess with those. I read the ebay write up for the lens,...

Another thing I should mention is that since the lens weighs so much I wouldn't recommend supporting it by holding the camera body. It can't be good for the lens mount on the camera.

I have a Fujinon lens for my GH1. The fact that yours comes with the adapter is a nice touch. I have almost the same adapter. I flipped the bottom tripod plate on the adapter the other way to try to...

I found an image of the built-in microphone. That seems like a very poor choice for placement, and quite a step down from what was offered on the Gh1 and 2, but I guess we won't know for...

I was just wondering because the mic is very evident on my Gh1 and it can't be seen at all in the pictures of the Gh3. I wonder how it compares?

Where is the built-in stereo microphone on the GH3?

That piece really flowed well. Very nice!

Thanks. I may give that a try. I loaded the Reliable patch and shot the Star Chart Bars Full 600dpi.png image off my computer screen. The modified patch I had shut down after a few seconds but the...

I figured out the ptool saving problem. I have the ptool folder and program in my Program Files(x86) directory and I couldn't save the new firmware file to the same directory. I still am surprised I...

First thing first: I am trying to use ptool to create a bin file for the Reliable In-Camera Playback Patch. I load the GH__132.bin file, click the green "J" button at the bottom which loads in the...

It looks like it passed the test! I am guessing you did color grading as well?

I personally use the Lumix 20mm/1.7 with a wide angle adapter which gets the fov to around 28-30mm (35mm equivalent). It should be plenty fast enough for the lighting you described. It will give you...

It sounds like your image is over-exposed. If you are set on shooting at f2.8 then you will have to increase the shutter speed to lower the light. Either that, or get a nd filter or lower the light...

Is the audio level monitoring just a GH2 feature, or can I get that on my GH1 somehow? And what about defeating the AGC in the camera?

The Krohn Conservatory in Cincinnati has a yearly butterfly exhibit, and every year I try to take my two daughters. This year I also took my hacked GH1. This was shot with the 14-140 lens with a...
