HDR is coming and it causes confusion, fear and even anger in discussion forums. GH5 has a new HDR profile "HLG". It records more image data than normal profiles and even more than vlog-L. How large color space it can record compared to rec709, DCI-P3 or rec2020? Has someone used it with HDR...

I have been wondering the Panasonic GH5 internal mic quality. It is odd that I cant find any test results for GH5 mic audio quality. Why testers are not testing audio? My GH5 seems to record low frequences much weaker than GH3/4. I must add bass very much when listening my GH5 recordings. (Wind...

I have wondered why I cant see macro blocking in my GH5 4k 60P file like earlier with GH4 8bit 4k 30P. I tested with complex motion and the result is surprising. 60P is much cleaner than 30P.

The new IS lock stabilator is incredible. It "glues" the lens in static clips but it helps in other ways too. Surprisingly the IS lock makes walking with camera very stable and smooth. It makes "floating" stabilization and keeps the frame balanced smoothly. Combined with DUAL IS2 lens and...

I can shoot video using a GH4 4k photo mode. It shows exposure values like photo modes and and has auto iso in M and auto iso upper limit. It makes just the same video files as normal 4k video. It is very easy to toggle between S, A, P and M exposure modes. I can have two different video modes...

Only some bug fixes. No new features like auto iso in M for video or exposure values visible in video recording. http://av.jpn.support.panasonic.com/support/global/cs/dsc/download/fts/dl/gh4.html

New TVs can play 10bit 4k HEVC videos easily, even at 60P. HDR and 4k bluray is coming. I have watched 10bit 4k 60P video files with my 65 Inch Panasonic TV from SD card and the quality is something I have never seen. Very wide gamut, contrast and clarity and absolutely no banding even with...

I made a quick test. All 4 videos with same exposure and with tripod and the same lightning. Iso 200, NR -5, 4k down sampled to fullhd, no iDynamic or curves or other than profile and contrast settings. 0-255 levels and captures of full levels and uncompressed frames to Photoshop. I adjusted...

What do you think about GH4 noise reduction? I have a comparison of the same clip with NR -5 and NR 0. Other settings were iso3200, natural contrast -5, color 0, sharpness 0. iDynamic was standard and there is heavy underexposing. I think NR-5 is much better. Image is 100% center crops of 4k...

[Anamorphic(4:3)] mode is available which optimizes the settings for 3328x2496 video recording with a 4:3 anamorphic lens.* To convert the footage to a cinemascope aspect for playback, corresponding software and device are required. 1/16000 sec shutter speed can be selected manually when using...

How can I see them? I see only file icons without thumbnail image with 100Mbs files. Windows Media Player cant play them and says "missing codec". I have not installed GH4 cd.

I am having problems with 100-300mm autofocus. My first copy of that lens AF died after one year of use and I got new one from warranty. Now after 1.5 years of use I have the same issue with the new one. When powering on the camera the lens AF sticks and does nothing. If I shake the lens during...

Can I have 4:4:4 1080P ETC if I use 4k and 2x digital zoom? Chroma is then recorded 4:2:0 4k which is the same as 1080P 4:4:4 and the image size is the same as ETC.

If you have that lens you should contact Panasonic service. We may have a FW fix if many people complains. I have heard that Panasonic knows the issue but I am not sure if they are doing something. I have tested 2 copies of that lens with 3 bodies (GH3,GH4) and the OIS vibration is exactly the...

-auto iso in M for video with EV control (EV control for photos too) -auto iso limiter or range for video -every menu item programmable to every Fn (at least video AF, maybe not format) -play- button to right side (FN 2/3/4-option) -AE/AF lock on-off-on-off usage during video recording...

I have thousands of clips which needs stabilization. How can I do it?

Loop recording is interesting. It is now a time machine. AF performance in video recording may be good too. 1:1 4k video for anamorphic - 2880pix vertical res! No raw or better customizing options. http://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/dsc/download/fts/index2.html

I have GH4 and 14-140 II lens. When I shoot video handheld and try to keep it stationary and steady the OIS is generating rapid vibration or jitter. It shows clearly in 2k and is bad in 4k. I have seen that jitter also with 12-35mm and 35-100mm POWER OIS lenses in Youtube or Vimeo. All my MEGA...
