B-cam to GH2?

[MAR-10]

I need a second Cam for a shoot next week and I can't get my hands on a second GH2.
Is there a cheaper Lumix cam that would blend well with the GH2 in a very well lit environment?
Mostly for some reverse shots.
I'm shooting 24p.

Thanks

Maybe a hacked gh-1. You would have to look on ebay or in the marketpalce here.

Unhacked gh1 also. Too bad g2 don't have 24p, its so cheap right now! Lol!

Please don't make family fight with gh1 and gh2! We are brothers dedicated to overthrow the RED facists! Lol!

I would agree with the others- GH1 would be a natural perfect B-Cam hacked or unhacked. You would have to do pulldown removal on the GH1 clips though.

Why's that?

Thanks guys.

I could get a GH1, how complex is it to hack?

You would need one of the earlier ones that a hack is possible on... WHy not do some searching and find a GH2... They do pop up from time to time.

Thanks Justyn.
My B-cam is going to be a second GH2... I found one at The Camera Store in Calgary.
