Hi guys! First of all, let me thank you for such a magnificent job on the hack! I have decided to buy the GH1 instead of 7D because of you so thanks a lot!

However, I'm having some problems with my hacked GH1 and it would be really awesome if you could help me a little. The footage generally looks good but there are two things that make me worried:

1) There's a lot of noise (it's not like typical digital noise, more like a 'rumble' or some kind of strange motion) in the shadow and midtone areas. It wouldn't be strange at - say - 640 ISO or 1250 ISO but it is surprising at 160 and 320...

2) The gradients (light on a wall or just a background that's out of focus) look really really bad

I've uploaded two short clips, unprocessed .mts files straight from the camera to my dropbox. You can download them here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3651190/GH1.zip First clip is at 320 and second at 160.

My settings are:

25fps NATIVE
"C" settings from PTool
GOP 5

I'm shooting at Smooth with everything at -2. I've changed the color mode to Adobe RGB as it was cleaner than sRGB. The uploaded clips are in Adobe RGB.

Any idea what may be wrong?

Best regards,

Tom

The reason you probably aren't getting any help is that the file to download has no extension so once it is downloaded you have to rename to GH1.zip in order to see the files... I am looking at them now.
 
It doesn't look like you are exposed properly... It looks like you are shooting very low light. If this is the case then I am pretty sure that there is nothing wrong with the clips. It just looks like you are shooting in a very dark room underexposed.
