Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH1 gets firmware hack for higher quality HD video recording -- Engadget

As engadget correctly state, results do indeed speak for themselves.

And that will be compressed by Vimeo, but it still looks great. I'm guessing you'd want a 32gb Class 10 SDHC card though, 24mbps on my Canon HF200 eats up memory enough as it is.

People say you can only tell the difference between 17 and 24mbps on moving water, but then blu ray movies are at 34mbps + i think, so you must be able to tell or they wouldn't do it.
