Yeh man the GH2 is the bees knees!!!!!!!!
have you seen the Tele Conversion Feature for video? its amazing.
Simply put -
A HD video is 1920x1080 OR 1280x720.
The the sensor on the GH2 is 4000x3000 pixels (its a bit more than that really).When recording video it usually uses the entire sensor, but their is now an option (tele conversion) to use just the center 1920x1080 pixels, essentially cropping the fuller image / fuller sensor, allowing the user to zoom in to what ever it is they are filming further.
The same way when you crop an image, but for video, without any quality loss. its like sticking a longer lens on your camera and filming (obviously slight FOV differences).
i think its a x2.8 increase. Genius idea by panasonic.
