1080@24 and 720@60...This time with the RIGHT shutter speeds

Sonic! Thank you so much for the footage. Daniel L. thank you also for the server. I now have enough footage to examine to keep me busy for weeks!
 
Finally got DSL and am loading. Thanks a lot for this effort Sonic! Giving us the possibility to try out the workflow is a major helper in the decision making ( I´ll buy one anyway)

oh and I also would like to know how to look at the files without having to run FCP on a Mac...I guess its the .MTS files right?
Just like P2LogPro maybe there is an extra app that will allow me to just look ?

thanx

The cam comes with an app which I hated but probably because I was trying to use it on my disgracefully underpowered laptop.

For just looking...you could stick the files on a card and put it in a PS3 (from what I have heard)... I'm using Edius which can view the files no prob...not sure what else can handle the .MTS file extension...I'm sure there are a plethora of options though.

The Panny website might give you more options.
 
I just got the latest VLC player and it plays the .MTS files just fine. Thanks again for the opportunity to learn how to deal with this PRIVATE folder and its content ( plus the nice footage)
 
So, I guess there are a lot of problems with FCP and our beloved GH1?

I dropped the 60p footage into a 23.97 timeline and have gotten very jerky footage.

Here are the results of my ingesting and spitting out the footage:

Is this just the caveat of not having a 1/48 shutter?

I was playing around with this footage last night and noticed that in Final Cut the compression artifacting in the the ProRes footage seems to be WAY more present than when played in Quicktime. It also looked darker in Final Cut. My assumption is that its a gamma thing, though I've never encountered gamma issues before (Working mainly with DVCPro HD).

Just wondering if anyone else has encountered this and if there are any solutions.
 
There are few companies/people working on remedies right now (including Mac solutions). I think things are going to become a lot smoother soon...especially as more people have access to the camera in the near future.... Hope the footage has proved useful thus far.
