My GH1 can't do this!

Look at the the quality of this night shoot on the new Canon HF M41 - Incredible.

Very nice. I wonder what was wrong with 24P that he said it was unsatisfactory?

 

[ZeusFaber]

Wow

Still looks rather noisy to me, especially in the dark areas...
If you want the best low light camera available right now, go get a Nikon D3s along with a Nikon 50mm F/1.2 lens

None of this seemed that impressive to me.... Our 5D smokes these in low-light and I think the GH2 with the voigtlander trumps it.. The images look very flat too.

One 1/3" lower res chip = larger pixels which should result in decent low light performance, what kind of adjustments can be made? I need something that does much more than low light I know still shots on that are nearly useless. Also whats the shutter speed in low light situations? It'd be nice to see some shots with a little more motion.

Not bad for a $799 camera thou..
The better one with a wider lens will be the Canon HF G10 see here http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/749190-REG/Canon_4923B002_VIXIA_HF_G10_Flash.html but more expensive at $1500. Neither will be good for photo's because of the 2mp chip, but good for low light and form factor.

Well, neither of those camcorders you bring up can produce a reasonably short DOF shot so what's your point?

 

[wanderer63]

We have our GH1 (13) or GH2 for DOF this is just handy for other uses. Neat package with good sensor, auto zoom, good in low light, good focus system etc.
Compact for holiday use etc.

Mm i have to say it looks as good as any voightlander footage i have seen.:huh:

 

[mimirsan]

I'll stick with my GH1....Ive been enticed before by panasonics and canons top camcorders (bought tried and returned)...they just dont deliver detail in lowlight in comparison.

They have a shallow DOF feature that uses a a macro at the far telephoto.

I agree, it's quite good footage, sure beats my older Canon Vixia HF10's. The 2Mp sensor is interesting, no scaling, so is the 8 bladed aperture. I wonder how well it handles fast motion with the 24Mbps data rate.

Lots of original XA10 MTS files (the same sensor) located here, no fast motion though.

not bad at all for $800, but $1500 is a little steep for that G10. Think I'd rather have gh2 for that price. Good post Paul.
