GH3 60p in PAL land?

[asingfield]

Hi guys, well I might have to buy the GH3 NTSC version since they are no PAL version in Australia for another month. But I can get a NTSC copy. I'm fine with using 24p but for slow-mo; 60p. Is that going to be a issue, with the shutter? I know about the 180 rule but will there be a problem if I set 60p with 1/100 shutter in PAL land?

Cheers

If you have the time to wait, buy a PAL Model. You may run into lots of problems with grid frequency in cases. Im theory most are manageable using only certain shutter speeds, but it's prone to go wrong if you do not shoot very carefully.

Use this but also read the second page...

Thankyou, yeah I'm going down the PAL route.
