I'm coming from the Canon T2i and I use a flat Marvel picture style to retain as much dynamic range as possible.

What's an equivalent picture style that I should use for my GH3? Natural?
 
Yes, natural, with contrast @-2 to -5 , Saturation -2 or -3, sharpness depend on the lens (on lumix lenses i am going -4) and NR @ -4 .
 
i have had a GH3 now since february and have been testing it. I am very disappointed with the colors! am i the only one? I have tried every possible setting, grading etc with no joy... I have wanted to throw it away so many times. I used to have a GH1 and i loved the color pallete. Now I have resorted to using a friends old Canon 60d with cinestyle and love the color pallete. The main problem i find with the GH3 is that reds come out a bit ORANGE and yellows also come out a bit ORANGE. It kind of merges them towards each other and i can do nothing to restore it in post! yet i can find nothing on the internet about it? (also i am not happy with the contrast range... too contrasty) so disappointing because everything else is great about the camera. I swore i would never become a Canon boy and now I just love Canon colors !

Try to dial saturation at -5. The image will come out almost black & white. Then, grade as you wish :)
(I know it's not that simple, just think they can be very alike after grading)
