GH1 First impressions and footage



Is it me or the 1080p videos do not have a "filmic" look to them? The close-up of the cat would have looked much more "filmic" on the D90...
 
Megaupload is REFUSING to upload anything...been trying for days...must be my connection here...the raw footage looks great, I just wanted to see how well it held up to grading...

Hey Philip!

Try Mediafire or Rapidshare for uploads.
Rapidshare.com can hold upto 200MB and its fast too.

I like 'your' footages! Waiting for them! :thumbsup:

It probably depends on the mode you shoot them in. Phillip Bloom's shots certainly looked filmic to me. If you are comparing it to the D90 I think the softness of the D90 (I'm talking lower resolution) helped give it a different look. But this camera has several types of gamma like settings one could use.....it seems. But the interlaced look makes anything look like video.....AWAY WITH INTERLACE.
 
Yeah, I think true 24p might have done it for me. "Almost perfect" seems to be the curse of Video DSLRs...
 
After seeing all of this.. I'm going to put my adapter purchase on hold an look to pick one or two of these us. Might be a great set-up for music video shoots and where multiple cams are used. Thanks to all who have contributed.

How are people shooting with this? A shoulder rig? Held out like a small form camera or face up on the cam like a still cam?

And.. is it possible to monitor footage out through either composite or HDMI? I would like to be able to use a monitor and also use the intensity card to capture if HDMI is or other HD output is working...


cheers
 
I have Premiere. I just have yet to actually use it. But I plan on it real soon.

Haven't had time to play in depth, but footage loads and plays back fine in CS4. Comes in at 29.97 though, unsure why; plays back fine in 24p timeline though. Didn't have time to dig into this yet.
