A user just sent me follwing text:
“Panasonic Firmware upgrade and non Panasonic Batteries.
I have a battery (purchased through Amazon UK from a German supplier) that worked in my G1 with firmware 1.4 – which means it includes the feature that identifies it as a genuine battery.
I can confirm that this battery still works with the G1 firmware 1.5 and my GH1 with firmware 1.3. It may be that this won’t be the case with all batteries that worked with G1 v1.4, but there is a fair chance. NOTE THAT THIS ONLY APPLIES TO BATTERIES KNOWN TO WORK WITH G1 1.4 (not earlier).
However, I strongly recommend that you upgrade your firmware with a genuine Pansonic battery in the camera – I have no idea what might happen if the camera does not like the battery – and try your other batteries afterwards!“
