Right now we are unable to get Panasonic managers to talk.
From my sources their general opinion is that GH2 will solve all the problems.
And G1, GF1 and GH1 users are not interesting from commercial side anymore (if they do not want new body).

I guess the hack bothers them especially two features-OEM batteries and Japanese only language as these affect their bottom line.

So with GH1 and GF1 the currently installed firmware may indeed be the last one and they don't need to publish it.

You may need to figure out a way to dump the firmware via USB, but that may involve going into service mode and be too risky for average users.

Good luck and thanks for the spectacular job with the Ptool.
 
If this initiative were to succeed, I believe is the first time a manufacturer listens to its buyers. Has never happened that Sony, Panasonic etc. needs of its users.
A panel discussion constructive ideas, proposals, etc. to convince manufacturers ourselves we are the market, not that we meekly their products.
Certainly the Vitality's work has upset the GH1, unthinkable believe that might even be better of various Canon 550D, 7D and 5D.
The GH1 was the basis for the new Panasonic AF100 that, I think, a camcorder that will break the schemas of classical conception of video field.
And this will force me to sell my AG-HMC 151 just purchased (I had all Panasonic cameras: F10, MS4, DVX100, HVX200).

Would we not want to as a collective "group" want to have a clear concise agenda ?

With that agenda back up with the number of users that help create and support the collective agenda ?

I am all for this.

But.....

I would further suggest a user's group meeting in person with our camera's in conjunction with online access of the meetings. Keep in mind this is a large company. We need I think to show them in person all the things there camera is doing. Not sure they are really aware.

In addition their market penetration is terrible in the brick and mortar stores.

Just in three days of getting my new G2. I personally have helped three people choose either a G2 or GH1. Since this Friday to Sunday.

Why ? Because no one has seen the damn camera in real life.

My challenge to Panasonic....

Give us a contest .... Let us send in commercials of their product and they air them online from their site, youtube and others. Maybe we should just do our own commercial of what their camera should do ? Present that to them ?

I think the hack is great and await one for the G2. Be glad to be a beta tester.

Kindly,
Bruce

Predictable.

They have no respect for the people that makes their company rich.

"Just buy the new model please..."
