  1. Ok. Anyway, it's all pretty much by the by, cos as far as I can see the 1080 quality coming from the hacked panasonics is pretty well good enough for 99% of us. I am just fascinated by this discussion as I am considering getting hold of a V1 for the 60fps in order to capture fast action stills into water. I see it as a fairly limited camera, except for this one great function (and the AF).
  2. Aha thanks a lot. In tat case is the tele crop mode on the GH2 the zenith of hd video quality (no rescaling)?
  3. Ok thanks for the explanation. I can see the benefits for cropping and image stabilisation. But isn't it just an awful lot more work, for a moderate gain in quality? What I don't understand is why we are not already hitting peak quality with large sensor cameras such as the GH1 for example which is already downres-ing its footage in a ratio of 5:1 to output 1080. Shouldn't those pixels all be amazing already or is there some flaw in firmware processing?
  4. Hmm, The image quality is pretty good, I would say. Not market-leading and not deal-breaking. It certainly is not on a par with OM-D, GH3 or 5D. But for a very compact, high speed body it is adequate I would say.
  5. Forgive me if I am being noobalicious, but isn't it pointless? I can't display 4K on my TV and my laptop can't even cope with 1080. So, who can even watch 4K footage without a professional editing suite? Or is there some kind of quality compression effect when down-res-ing 4K footage to 1080?
