  1. Another vid from a review
     

    The built in image stabilisation is not active during video recording, so for best results a Panasonic lens with optical image stabilisation, or a tripod, is recommended. Focus peaking is available before recording as well as during recording, for manual focus

  2. Hmm very tempted

    Only thing keeping me with the RX100 is the small size and 1080p60
    If I could get that with better quality in the same package, then I no longer need both a RX100 and my GH2... :)

    Plus I get 24p, 30p and 60p on one cam...

    Plus shooting at 60p during a sunny day, helps keep the aperture open a lot more


    ---

    question
    does the G6 mic compare to the GH2's? GH2 has a nice internal mic which I do rely on a fair bit

  3. Posting relevant info
     
    GH3 has about 9+ stops of dynamic range it seems...
     
    But very good rolling shutter specs as per the link

    RESULTS:

    GH3: 15.5 ms (15.4-15.7-15.4)
    5D3: 20.5 ms (20.7-20.5-20.4)
    D5200: 22.4 ms (22.5-22.1-22.6)
    BMC: 25.0 ms (26.7-24.8-23.5)
    5D2: 25.9 ms (25.5-26.4-25.8)
    NEX-5N: 29.4 ms (28.8-29.6-28.9-29.8-29.8-29.1-29.7)

    NUMBERS THAT SQUIG FOUND SOMEWHERE ON THE WEB:

    Scarlet 14ms
    F65 14ms
    FS100 15ms
    AF100 14.85ms
    C300 16ms
    Red One MX 16.6ms
    7D 21ms
    5D MKII 25ms
    GH1 25ms
    D90 33ms

     

    GH3: 15.5ms (three measures: 15.4, 15.7, 15.4)

    That puts it clearly ahead of the DSLR pack, with a shutter that is as fast as those from the video and cine cameras. Impressive. Pity about the DR, which still seems a lot worse than the competition.

     

    On the neutral setting with everything dialled down to -5, Samuel measured it at 9.3 stops. I've done some real world comparisons to the 5D MKIII and D5200 and it's apparent that the GH3 has less dynamic range. The GH3 noise level/pattern is much better than the 5D and D5200 up to 1600 ISO, there's no fixed pattern noise.

    The saga continues.

    ^ that

    I wouldn't have posted that "9.3" number, since we're not sure yet about what the optimal settings are for the GH3
    but now that it's online... this is the chart with those settings (in thirds of a stop):

  4. GH3 has about 9+ stops of dynamic range it seems...

     

    But very good rolling shutter specs as per the link :)

  5. Haha it is indeed, just playing ;)

     

    I use PMC myself, Focals are to bright for my tastes, but I like the Opals.

     


    The Focal SM9 sounds different from the usual Focals - very smooth, neutral, clinical and flat.

    Extremely fast transient responce and full frequency responce range. They go deeper than the Opals and higher. Well it does cost 2x more....

    Headphone style bass due to no ports, just a passive radiator on the top

    And a switchable sealed 2 way mode, for checking what things sound like on small "home" systems

     

    Opals sound more exciting and vibey, more 3D and wider, but less accurate, hence why I currently have both

     

    Both are good "movie" watching speakers though - deep subsonic bass booms come through and wide soaring strings

     

    Getting a bit off topic now :lol:

     

    RX100 "Scanner Darkly" photo effect B)

    If only it could be applied to video....!
