Hi
Just wondering if anyone in the UK has received the free battery grip and battery for their GH4? I'm well over the 40 day waiting period Panasonic stated in the confirmation email I received at the end of May when I made my claim and I haven't heard a dicky bird since.

Thanks

Yep I filled out the form last week of May and got mine first week of July.

I didn't hear anything from them either so rang up to check after about 28 days and they said they were waiting on stock.

Maybe worth giving them a call to make sure?
 
I wouldn't count on a timely email response; I didn't get a reply from them until about a week after I'd received the battery grip!
 
I received mine a couple of weeks back.
One downside is that the tripod screw hole is way off centre, so if you mount the GH4 with battery grip to any type of tripod is will be shifted to the left quite a bit!

That sounds daft! So am I right in saying mounting the camera with grip on a DSLR baseplate and rails won't work either as the camera will be off centre?
 
If you check on Cheesycam's website, someone is making an adapter to correct the problem (I imagine that's why they're giving them away in the first place)
 
Apparently there struggling with supply and demand.... its coming chaps but how long is anybody's guess.
