DSLR Arguement=funny

[Chris Gold]

The biggest problem with the GH1 is the codec, if there isn't much action in the scene it compares to the (already bad) codec of canon DSLR's, but if there is to much going on in the scene the codec falls completely apart.

Other then that it has a little less dynamic range then the 7D, a more "baked in" higher contrast image, which looks quite nice. It also doesn't overheat like the 7D and has a swivel screen, both of which are nice.

Of course with the GH13 hack thats out there the codec problems can be fixed, and it can even outperform the 7D. But to my knowledge it sometimes stops recording in the middle of a scene if it has a problem, so it isn't exactly reliable.

You need to stick to the Sandisk Extreme III or Panasonic Gold, both class 10 SDHC cards, to avoid this.
