According to internet site it's June for the Rest of the World.
According to Cathay Photo, it's June. (they last heard from Panasonic)
According to MS color, don't know leh. If US get it in June, then it's end May in Singapore.
According to Allan Photo, simi GH-1? You want G1 isit?
According to Panasonic Singapore, it'll only happen in the late second half of the year due to some problem
According to me, it will be here, just a matter of time.

Wa, thankyou sibeiblur for the information. I LOLed at the Allan photo response "simi GH-1? You want G1 isit).

So i guess information from panasonic Singapore would be a more accurate one. Late second half of the year means end June or December period.

What problem? Someone in marketing forgot to submit the demand numbers?

Panasonic has announced that the GH1 will be available in the US and Europe for a RRP of $1500 (USD and Euro respectively).

No news on Asian release as yet.

I happened to ask a Best Denki sales person a couple of weekend ago and she said they will have it by end of the year. She said the price is around S$1500. Not sure if this piece of infor is trustworthy.

S$1500 for the GH1? Thats highly unlikely considering that its already US$1500. Unless its body only which I think Best Denki seldom do.
