GH2 Tether GH2 to laptop for photos (and video?)

[svem]

I just installed Adobe Lightroom 4 and wanted to tether my GH2 to my laptop with Adobe Lightroom 4 for photos. But it seems Adobe Lightroom 3 and 4 don't support the GH2 for this purpose:

What other (free?)software allows you to hook up your GH2 to your laptop and snap and view pictures while you are shooting live?

Is there also something for video?

I don't think there is any software for tethering Panasonic cameras at this time. You can always give one of these a try, but I'm not sure how fast they are or how well they work:

its more so teh camera not supporting tethering than the software or so i understand....i have searched black and blue with nothing other than the so so eye fi....doubt it would work well with video based on how long it takes to transfer photos

Svem,

I can't personally vouch for it, but this news story says that Phase One Capture One 6.1 and later supports tethering for the GH2. Phase One download site here.

Hope this is helpful,
