I just read a review on Amazon about the GH3. This person said "Case in point is you can't monitor audio with headphones (mandatory for anyone who knows) when the LCD is open (also mandatory for anyone who knows cameras on tripods are not at 90 degrees to eye height)." Tell me this is not true or fixed. :-(

yikes. again. I really was going to buy this camera tonight. Amazon has it at $1098.99

When the LCD is open the headphone jack may interfere with the movement of the LCD. The output is not affected. If you can get a very small right angle jack (like many ear buds) on your phones it works just fine.

Oh, I see. It's a physical limitation. The post I read did not make that clear. It sounded to me it was an automatic internal problem. The right angle plug should not be a problem to apply.
