Use a H4N as remote audio then sync in post using a clapper board

The GH2 is pretty interesting, actually better than the GH1 but the firmware makes the difference. You have to wait for Tester13 GH2 firmware hack to make it superior than GH1. 5D MkII still is the best.

Thank you! Great review. Are there any xlr audio inputs or do you use an adapter for audio? -
