Any "Dutch drill" rig video using a GH1?

[Peter J. DeCrescenzo]

Has anyone tried something like this with their GH1 yet?

If so, I'd love to see some video!

I suspect 720p 50/60 would help minimize jello in the resulting footage. Probably turn off OIS, and use a shutter setting of 1/120 or more, too?

Also, including some action (people walking, whatever) within the frame may help "sell" the effect, so it doesn't just look like a still image spun around in post.

Caution: Don't try this at home, kids! Using other than low RPMs may cause accidents or injuries! We are not responsible for damage to life, limb or property! Batteries not included! YMMV!

Cool idea but I would never try it unless my GH1 was half-broken or something

Actually I've found you can get this effect really easy with a DSLR by combining it with a zoom, you just turn the DSLR around the lens. Easy Really disconcerting and awesome effect IMO...it also breeds jello.
