Some Links

Some interesting links to peruse:

• Is Panasonic's AF100 hackable (ala the GH1)?  Maybe so, according to the original GH1's hacker.
• Fairly recently Magic Lantern added the T2i to its list of hackable cameras. This isn't a magical bitrate booster but instead adds a lot of useful features to the camera such as zebra stripes, crop marks (16:9, 4:3, etc), manual audio gain and many more useful features.  This of course carries a warning of USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.  If you're daring, check it out.
• Matt Jeppson is at it again with another great post about being careful what we wish for when it comes to the eternal quest for raw video.
• And @EOSHD (a great source for DSLR links) has linked to a comparison video showing the GH2 in its native AVCHD mode vs. the 40fps burst modes in 1080 and 3.8K modes. So yes you can shoot near-4K video with a GH2!  But for only 40 frames at a time (so not even quite 2 seconds if you edit in a 24p timeline). Not so useful at the moment, but maybe a hack in the future will take care of that?
