Your opinion is well reasoned.  However, if someone uses certain gear and they enjoy it, that's perfectly fine.  In this hybrid market it's all a compromise anyway.

Isn't that just reflections of her hair, 
and terrific that the sensor picked up that subtlety?

When are people able to understand centrism as moderate viewpoint of the whole humankind in general has won the plea?!
For some good reason, right? ; )
The whole point, dudes, is the trend to extreme standpoints. To each its own.
What about a mid term?
That is, when both worlds can coexist altogether. Manual from film and analog environments don't necessarily mean absence of any sort of automation if this will bring some advantage. New jobs will be required for focus pullers. Upcoming techniques can't be stopped because people need to make bucks for living. Go and get a new life! -- stop for once to be morons...
Maybe, that's only me but, coming from Steenbecks, I am fully done with these pseudo-film-PROs trying to convince the world they still lead something or someone in this industry.
Anyways, on the other hand, this can't be read as you'll have a button able to decide what to put in focus or into the frame, c'mon...
: P
*Sigh*
What about peaking and some other features such as tap to focus or the new touch pull/follow focus aid brought by GH5 to set the point up?
;-)
 

A lot of back and forth - between shooting raw vs log.
I did a bunch of tests.  
And in the end, yea, say what you want how PRO RES 4444 is just as good,  I just find RAW gives me better highlight information overall, especially on the Ursa Mini, and  it is nice to worry about color temp after shooting on a doc, not during it, as you move quickly between locations, and light changes quickly.
sharpness, all that, you can control more in post and yes, in raw,
seems to have more noise in the image and log smoothes it out
but, at this point, some noise is good - most digital images are too clinical, too sharp, too everything
any flaws are welcome to the image
so yea,
that's my take on it all.
So sorry Stu and Prolost cats - raw seems good for me.
As well as 100% of the DP-nominated films from the oscars - all shot on Arriraw - I think - or most of them.
whether its for VFX or resolution or god knows what - it just seems like all the cool kids are doing it.

Hi everyone, sorry to interrupt your discussion as i dont wanted to start a new topic for a minor question. I was lucky enough to get a GH5 today and was wonderign if you guys could recomend me some good, reasonably priced, SD cards for shooting video? And should i wait for the new v60 standard cards, because of the 400mb/s update? thanks a bunch!

I took it out of the box. Was fun. I have no idea how to pronounce your name Jon.
 

Politics is part of life, almost as much as your/our/Andrew's fav cam/film/shot is. We just can't live outside of the bubble for longer than our legs. Inner circles don't help, it doesn't matter whether the side you are.

What do you guys think about Kennedy assassination btw ?
Should college students carry firearms to protect themselves during mass shootings on campus ?
Are people in UK stupid to have voted for the Brexit ?
Why is Marine le Pen so popular in France ?
Do you think Russia was behind the Democrat/Hillary email hack ?
What happened to the MH370 flight ? Is someone hiding something ?
Are Muslim terrorists a deviant form of a peaceful religion or the visible part of an intrinsically violent Islamic culture ?

Can't wait to hear your opinions. No Godwin points please. Courtesy first

I don't know... no offense to anyone's opinion, we're all entitled to them, but who gives a shit what Andrew's political opinions are? Or mine? Or yours? Or anyone's?
Arent you the member who used to own an XC10 and D750... and if my memory serves me, you recently bought an F3? If this is you, you have posted some good work, focus on that and ignore the rest... or don't and let some random guy from the internet, who you obviously disagree with dictate your time spent on a video site...
I mean, I disagree with almost every dipshit, crackpot political theory I read on this site... from both sides of the aisle... it doesn't mean I cannot learn from their video experiences...
But whatever...

He probably thinks I'll give his PMs to the NSA!

It is his forum to do as he wishes, that's the way it goes .

So shaky!
Not enough DOF!
Skin tones look awful!
GH5 is the worst!

I recall Andrew requesting this feature in an interview with a Panasonic engineer years ago, and writing that said engineer wrote it down in his notepad. Interesting to see it finally come to fruition, and I can't thank Andrew enough for the part he may have played.
If the focus transitions are triggerable through the Lumix app, the production value it makes possible is incredible. Remote follow focus steadicam like shots with only a light gimbal. All you need is a 'focus puller' to trigger the pre marked points off their phone.

@Orangenz NUDES LEAKED!!!! damn he is gorgeous guys ?

NSA agent here, can confirm: @Orangenz's body is a flawless Greco-Roman specimen that would make any Renaissance artist worth their salt spontaneously break out chisel and hammer to immortalize it in marble glory. 
 
Also, he carries his keys in his front right pocket.

Until Edward Bernays effectively created 'Public Relations' based on concepts from his uncle, Sigmund Freud, marketing was based on people's actual needs. Bernays changed everything and marketing evolved into emotion and fantasy-illusion based and thus the world has been changed. Now marketing is based on emotion and desire, and not actual need for daily living or survival.
The Universe Loves Drama, so combined with the emotional-fantasy-based social reality we now live in, explains the current behavior of social interaction, especially in social media. It's enough of a challenge for logical thinkers to effectively communicate with emotional thinkers (and neither side being able to communicate with the other). It becomes a deeper communication challenge with the added fantasy layer, which affects everyone at some level (including me: for example I too used to believe in the 'Full Frame' look until I studied the math and performed my own tests). What we really 'know' changes with time and it's important to remember that.
Another interesting social element is that most of the people discussing cameras, and all gear for that matter, spend far less time creating with the tools than focusing on the tools themselves. The tools become a form of entertainment in and of themselves: playing with them, doing 'tests', debating online, discussing deficiencies in the current model(s) and yearning for the new model(s), buying and selling, etc. And for perhaps the vast majority, not actually creating any content other than writing, discussing, and debating the tools in social media. This is not a judgement, rather an observation of another form of creating and fellowship of like-minded enthusiasts: people who focus on the tools themselves for entertainment vs. using the tools to create content, for entertainment or for a living. Every now and then someone will post, "get out and shoot people!", but that's not why most of the people are on these forums.
The GH5 of course is a major improvement and is an excellent content-creation tool. Is it a baby ARRI? Who knows, let's see some side-by-side tests as were done with Canon 5D3 RAW, which with 14-bit Canon color is indeed like a baby Alexa as shown by various tests done over the years.

More GH5 revealed!
 

I sold my 5inch Video Assist after ecording both GH4 and G7 on it.
The files from GH4 were not really better then internal, the G7's were a lot worst. I tried on a second unity, same results. Not the same thing on an Atomos... so I sold it... (just my personal experience, nothing scientific).
