Panasonic and Pentax releases new firmware updates

Panasonic and Pentax will be introducing new firmware updates for their digital cameras, with Panasonic being the apparent “winner” here as their 1.11 update for the DMC-G2 will deliver a much better performance when taking photos courtesy of an improved AE lock which will hold even when you’re using the touch shutter, alongside support for the new H-FT012 lens. As for Pentax’s 1.01 update for its K-5, that will enable you to shoot 20 images in a burst, which is more than double of what it does currently – which is eight. Both firmware updates are already available now, so if you own either camera, why not mosey over and download them?
