GH2 improvements list

Thanks Vitaliy.

AVCHD encoder:
any chance for 24p constant 24Mbps or improving encoder bitrate interpretation ?

Sensor signal:
banding issues solved or improved.

1/48 shutter pleeeaase

Please post here suggested improvements for GH2.

Unfouded dreams or crazy ideas are not allowed.

AVCHD encoder:
23.8Mbps in all modes available
720p encoder improved with B frames.

General:
PAL/NTSC switchable

Those would definitely be my top 3, right there!!!!!!
 
Why do Panasonic dictate that in my GH2 "My Menu" I must have the five most recently used menu functions? This is how they have implemented "My Menu".

I know my favourite functions which I need again and again. But whenever I use a different one, one of my favourites gets lost and is replaced with a rarely used one. This is really a mess!

Meanwhile I have written my favourites on a piece of paper, along with the way to find them deep down in the menu system. I don`t think this is the way a "My Menu" system is supposed to be working.

If Panasonic really think that this automated choice of the "My Menu" items is a good idea, could they please make it an option for those who like it that way. But please give me the option to choose and save what I want in my "My Menu". Because I know what I need in "My Menu". And that is not simply the five most recently used options.

Thank you!
 
I second this. Let me choose and store my favorite functions.

AF-Tracking in video mode, also when other functions do not work then
(Panasonic people will know)
Audio out control (earphones)
Audio meter while playback

As much mbps as possible also in 720/50p

Being able to save all settings on a SD card, so one can use this to use the exact same settings on another camera.
 
1080p 30 at 23.8Mbits sustained. Maybe higher bit-rates if possible. The 17mbits of now are really a detriment. Already made a donation and hope you can get at least 24mbits 30p on the camera. All else is icing on the cake. Thanks!
 
4:3 aspect ratio for video -- for use with 2x anamorphic lens -- and whatever appropriate aspect ratio between 4:3 and 16:9 that when used with 1.5x anamorphic lens achieves a 2.39:1 AR ultimately.

+1

Could sensor crop maybe altered with parameters for aspect ratio?
 
Higher lower limit for AVCHD bitrate (to stop the image from being prematurely starved)
PAL/NTSC selectable record modes, some of us actually do travel with our cameras between different regions a lot, never did understand why more camcorders don't have this.
1/24, 1/48, 1/96 and other film applicable shutter speeds, sure some people may say it's close enough, but this is digital and it's damn easy to implement and would result in many more sales, given the choice you know you would all choose 1/48 over 1/50 for 24p
 
#1. Would love a 3D video synch capability at 24p for a pair of GH2 or more...

#2. Timelapse capability for 3D RAW timelapse stills with a pair of GH2 (the full res stuff with bright prime lenses, not the cheapie 1080p 3D lens) ( 3D intervalometer )

#3. 4K video 24p for several seconds would be neat for vfx, minus Rick Astley mode

1. clean hdmi output
2. highest possible Mbps in 24p mode, more than 23.8
3. in camera 2.39 (1920x805) and 2.0 aspect ratio (1920x960)
4. any way to monitor audio in camera?
