New Firmware for GH1 - May 10

[kaplanfx]

Looks like there will be a new firmware: http://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/info/dsc_update.html

No major updates, but I didn't think we'd see another GH1 firmware update.

Looks pretty good
But no mayor things, at least for now.
Only better AF performance with other lenses.
This is sad.

If only they would give us the option to disable AGC... garg...

Did they slip anything else in, other than announced stuff, in the last update?

Just trying to gauge they likelihood of anything good coming with this under the radar

Very simple.. just go here:
http://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/dsc/download/fts/index.html

d/l the two files (one for body and one for lens if you have the kit lens)
Extract both files to SD card. Insert the SD Memory Card into the Camera body. Turn on the power switch. Press the Play button to enter the Play mode. It'll ask if you want to update.
First do the lens then the body.

Oh, check your current FW first.. if it's earlier than 1.2 then do the update.
