Hi

Know This has been discussed a year ago or so, but a lot new cameræ has hit the market since. I have considered the gh2 but have doubts if it Will be too difficult to make the takes look the same and coexist In same sequence? I would like a second camera to be lighter than the hmc and I love the DOF from fx the gh Series. Any suggestions?

A lot depends on what you plan on shooting, for instance are you shooting mainly in good light or low light?
 
I think the GH2 would be your best bet for complimenting the HMC...it does things that the 150 can't do and vice versa. I think with a bit of tinkering you could find profiles that match up pretty well and there's a lot of people here I suspect that own both cameras or at least HMC150 and GH1 (since the GH2 is hard to get right now). Plus with the lenses you buy for the GH2...it could set you up for perhaps moving into the AF100 later.
 
Thank you for your answers. I kind of hoped for that answer #3 - guess I will be saving up money to buy the GH2. Think I´ll just wait for the dpreview to come - hopefully soon. But I´m almost convinced that this is going to be my next camera. I also think of getting the Voigtlander 25mm F.95 for that camera after i saw Phillip Blooms little short with his mum cooking: http://vimeo.com/17062701
Only issue is that I live in Denmark (EU) so the 25P mode will be just about the break dealer? Hopefully it will come up in a future firmware update? Anyone having a clue about if that´s gonna happen?

All the best
