I just received my new Panasonic DMC-GH2 camera and lenses late yesterday. So today I was out in the yard learning how to use it. I had it set for video and was experimenting with a super-zoom feature when I noticed the Hermit Thrush under a bush. I took the video and captured some still photos from it on the computer. What I got is much better than I expected. It isn?t like having my 500 mm back, but it only weighs two pounds.

Photos are here: http://www.pbase.com/jvhigbee/c_current

I will be posting more photos as I use it and will have some video and comments at: http://josephvhigbee.com/ as time goes on.
