Hard to say with certainty, but if it's like my GH2, then yes.

A friend picked up this grill handle at Barbeques Galore for ~$7. The threads are 1/4-20, standard tripod mount and you can also find it online at Amazon:

FYI - Just got the tracking number for my GH3 from Adorama! Ordered on Sep 18th, should be here on Dec 4th. I'll post some side-by-sides with my stock GH2 as soon as I can.

My GH3 is here! Sitting in a box by the front door - will unbox and start the side-by-sides this weekend!

Re: GH3: Buzz buzz b-buzz
 

Got one arriving tomorrow Bill.
Also really interested to shoot some comparisons.
What are you comparing it with?

Re: GH3: Buzz buzz b-buzz
 

Hi Jim - I will start with my unhacked GH1 and GH2. And, as soon as its available, I want to rent a Panasonic AG-AC90 camcorder for a "$2000 pro camcorder vs $2000 (with lens) video-centric hybrid" shootout.

Cheers,

Have anyone tested the HDMI out - I would like to know if it can deliver 1920x1080 50P and 60P ?
I am also wondering if the micro four thirds mount is the same on all panasoniv micro four third cameraes. Will the mtf adapters or lenses that are made for GH1 or the AG-AF400 fit on the GH3?

Re: GH3: Buzz buzz b-buzz
 

Google, Google, Google. Its all out there DMC-GH3 | PRODUCTS | LUMIX | Digital Camera | Panasonic Global

Does say its clean output, but obviously, not sure exactly what format

Re: GH3: Buzz buzz b-buzz
 

Hi Colin
I have looked at these sites but I cannot see for shure that it can output 1920x1080 50P - I have learned through time that if it is not stated in the material - I cannot count on it. They do not write what the stuff cannot do. In the specifications for the HDMI it says 1080P,1080i,720...........
Micro four third - are there different types? The 14-140mm lens has a G applied and I have downloaded the g_series_system_chart so I wonder if there is a special MFT G mount....

I also wonder if it can be powered from the USB socket or the "DC Coupler" that is'nt stated in the specifications.
I am considering if I can use the GH3 behind the goal in Ishockey - taking the HDMI out and convert to HD-SDI and record to a Black Magic Hyperdeck studio Pro. Then slows can be played back from the BM recorder.

Found out that it deliver 1920x1080 P50 from the HDMI :) Orderd a GH3 and a G5 and some converters from MTF so I will find out if they work together.
