believe you me, i've read all the shootouts. the gh2 is the only sub thousand cam
that can...
1. hdmi output
2. zebra.
3. 12,800 iso hack low light. you won't need 10K lights everywhere
4. match red epic in resolution with quantum hack
5. sound hack
6. even the red has jello, don't get a 550.
7. get almost any lens you want with an adaptor micro 4/3.
8. unlimited recording time
check it out on vimeo
