Here is a link to review of V-Log in the DVX-200 apparently Mathew Allard the reviewer wasn't that impressed by the lack of smooth highlight rolloff, and having to underexpose to not cause highlight clipping and thereby introducing noise into the image.
He doesn't sound biased or anything like that, and although his views are based on some non scientific tests, it seems like he has a definite point based on the video examples, however it appears that V-Log is a bit of a differently mapped log in the high areas, so Panansonic need to make this information available.
Anyway I hope the GH4 version (probably exactly the same) works a bit better than he is describing, also its interesting that none of the GH4 Beta V-Log users have mentioned this.
He does skin tone tests too..not a great result there either, its kind of taken the wind out of my sails a bit.
Anyway form your own views...heres the link
