    @emonty

    do all custom settings remain after the upgrade?

    This is the best question I have seen all day and yes they do remain.

  • emontyemonty

    lol, upgraded thxs...all good

  • driftwooddriftwood

    Looking good on the firmware :-)

  • larsaruslarsarus

    Exciting times. :) Got mine upgraded after a few attempts - the GH3 wouldn't detect the bin-file on my 64GB card while the (empty) DCIM ++ directories still were on the card, but when I formatted a smaller (4GB) card and removed the default directories I got the update to run.

    @driftwood that's good news.

    2 things I was hoping to see come out this release was ability to have hacked custom settings, or possibly a fix to the ugly noise Shian Storm and others reported using the 72mbs ALL-I codec.

  • driftwooddriftwood

    @Skenzin Intra settings should be able to be improved... ;-)

  • windsurfwindsurf

    Upgraded 10 minutes ago and it's all ok. @emonty In my situation the Custom Settings are still the same. ws.

  • driftwooddriftwood

    @Skenzin The ugly noise Shian Storm and others reported using the 72mbs ALL-I codec is because 72Mbps is simply not enough even with the benefits of adaptive 8x8 transform. 4x4 transform with the hi bitrate GH2 Intra hacks are much better.

    I also have problem updating firmware with my 32GB card, so I had to use smaller capacity (16GB) to update the camera

  • SkenzinSkenzin

    @driftwood interesting. They were probably scared of getting lots of returns, 72mbs = 9MBs, was probably a decision to keep compatibility with all true class10 cards.

  • drbdrb

    @manstok blow up the japanese models !!! I have a japanese body collecting dust unless vitaliy can take care of this with the hacking or non hacking or whatever magic he does... I might try your steps anyway, who knows...

  • stanlymanly2stanlymanly2

    Concept: I turned 22 today, so i made a video over night. 2 hours to compose and shoot and edit 2 angles 2 lenses used 22 seconds long 22 by taylor swift playing

  • squigsquig

    Bought an NTSC GH3 second hand today for $1000 after hearing there's no new 60p cameras @ NAB. I'll be testing it against my fav DSLR of the moment the D5200. The cadence issue has scared me off the GH3 until now but I need a 60p B cam to go with my ???? A cam.
