Re: HPX500 5600 Preset Fix

Yes I know. I'm the one that posted over there. But I noticed Jan was responding here and not there so here I am.

On the 200A matter I'd like a definitive response from someone at Panasonic. Not that I don't like or trust Mr. Green but he doesn't to my knowledge receive a regular paycheck from Panny-san.

To me the problem is the cameras have been out almost a year now and they're still dragging their feet on fixing it. Right now they've fixed 1 camera. They may feel its too expensive to fix every camera. But I feel that this is a warranty issue. The cameras came from the factory with what is by any professional video standard a defect. They need to fix it.

Now!

As an aside I also feel that if the 200A is less noisy than the 500 thats not a good thing either. I could see them orphaning the 500 because it hasn't sold as well as they would have liked and putting all the development money into matching Sony step for step. IE: 200A, EX-3 fighter etc.
If they give a FF about their clients they'll take care of their established customer base. Right now I'd have a difficult time recommending or buying another Panasonic product.
