Over the course of this month, I'll be giving the GH2 it's first real workout. I've signed on to help a non-profit produce the following...
1. 4 minute long PSA/Mini-Doc that goes over what they do. To be shown on local PBS, online, and projected at their first annual fundraising event.
2. 30 second ad spot with a local news celebrity that will air on one of the local news channels (recently revamped and went to HD)..
I'm really excited about these shoots, as I'll be putting the GH2 in a wide variety of situations, and will get to see first hand how well it performs for broadcast. Based on the threads from the past few weeks, I'm planning on shooting this exclusively at 320 and 640 ISO, so we'll have a good real world test of the noise levels of both.
Most of the above will be shot with the 20mm Pancake and the new lpowell 100Mbps hack, and I'd love to share the progress of the project in this thread for others to learn from. I'd also like to collect any tips you guys have as far as grading GH2 footage for broadcast (any quirks you've come across, etc.)
In other news: wonder how the news anchor will take walking on set and seeing the tiny GH2/Pancake pointing at him.
