Provantage Has Some GH2s?

Provantage Has Some GH2s?

Hey all,
Just wanted to let you know I ordered my GH2 with 14-42 kit from Provantage 2 days ago, they said it was a special order and it would take at least 3-4 weeks... Then this morning, I get an email with a tracking number saying it's been shipped! Should be here Tuesday. Sweet.

What color and location because I have had mine ordered for weeks now and am getting told not until the 28th !!! :-(

I was thinking the same thing, then I realized he said it's the 14-42 kit and I ordered the 14-140 kit. So it seems Panasonic isn't shipping 14-140 kits yet since I haven't heard about anyone getting them at all.
 
I think you are right mike and that's the package that I want to pick up. I just think the 14-140 will fill a good sized part of the arsenal... especially for exterior shoots.... concerts, etc.
 
OK, maybe because I ordered two.....thank the good Lord I haven't ordered the third yet. I might see them before Easter !!!!
 
Just bought a GH2 kit with 14-42 lens today, no 14-140 kit available, from Samy's in Los Angeles. This and the Culver City store have stock in limited supply. If you're local, do what I did and call to verify availability, place it on hold (my salesperson was nice enough to hold it till the end of the day without a deposit - ask for Nikki), then run down and get it.

Unfortunately, I bought it on behalf of a friend who's been lusting after my GH1. She asked me to be her personal shopper, so I have the vicarious thrill of owning it until I hand it over to her tomorrow - yippee!
 
Instock at Unique Photo

Instock at Unique Photo

I have desperately been searching for a GH2 before christmas. (I placed a preorder with Amazon which seems on permanent hold.) Anyway, I found that Unique Photo (http://www.uniquephoto.com) claims to have them in stock. I placed an order and called this morning to confirm. They said that they "had plenty in stock". I guess I'll believe that when I see it show up at my door. Anyway, they had 14-140 and 14-42s available. They said that they were USA models. They seem to have a good rep online.

Might be an option for someone. Don't work for them. Just trying to help another enthusiast out.

It seems that GH2 stock is finally picking up just before Xmas. Could it be Panasonic's way of foiling unauthorized sellers from hogging up supply before the holiday buying rush and reselling at jacked-up prices?
 
Ed, Thanks so much for the referall. I just spoke to Alan at http://store.uniquephoto.com/e/index.php / Unique photo and he was a pleasure to deal with... Didn't upsell me and was super friendly and professional... So, I just bought 2 Gh2s with 14-140 cameras and that means he has 6 or 7 left...


Pick them up and tell him that Justyn and Ed Sent ya.... I will have it in time for Christmas.... Incredible day indeed.... THanks all...
 
anybody have some advice on how to get the discount thru panny? i tried a couple email adresses they didnt work. they still had some of those kits^ in stock at unique i m really just wanting to shoot video tho and with the 1:1 mode i dont see the point in spending extra on a long lens especially one that slow. is the auto focus that much faster than the 14-42?

Yeah, how about doing it legitimately instead of trying to get a deal you don't deserve and jeopardizing a real discount for the rest of us? One perc I get for sticking with my dull corporate job is getting a corporate discount at Panasonic. But that gets put at risk when leechers get the discount unethically and ruin it for everyone else.
