hello, today , i switch on my gh3 at 8 pm ti check battery status,and was ok. Then i went out to shot, and at 9 pm the gh3 is totally dead. Not even a light , nothing. I have heard oher people experiencing same issue, does anyone know anything about?Problemi is that now is summertime, i was going to use the gh3 and assistance is closed for vacation. a lot of trouble with this gh3 since i got it.fedup!
 
Over time a "film" develops on battery contacts. I use a product called DeOxit and a swab to remove it. Good stuff for all electrical contacts. Also adds a layer of protection.
 
Programmed obsolescence maybe? I noticed the on/off switch not working quite right a few times on mine and the tip scroll wheel 'slipping'....oh plus the loose cold shoe. Made to last? Nope. Made to last until you buy their next model, yes.
 
Mine died about this time last year in the middle of shooting a feature. Fuse blew inside it, took about a week to get it repaired by Panasonic's local authorized repair place.
 
i have had lots of issue in 1 year and half of gh3.i am note satisgfied at all. feel like want to abandon panasonic
 
Contact Panasonic. Same thing happened to me. They told me that the connection to the battery compartment is at issue. They fixed it in newer versions of the camera.
