I did it in lightroom with a gradual filter (lowered exposure and added warm). then some lut on the main photo. maybe you could try to export in tiff, grade in lightroom and make a new video in after effects.

 

Thanks for the imput. I'll try to go this way.

Not easy to track a mask in every take, because they are mostly on glidecam.

What kind of gradding do you think fit best for an institutional cops/military video?

I need to grade this scene that was shoot on GH4 with Cine D using Paul Leeming´s setting advice.

Trying to ETTR I finished overexposing and burning out the sky. 

Whats the best way to recover highlights?

Any suggestion of filmic/cinematic grade?

Firmware update! V1.2 reduces camera noise while shooting video, dual IS2 stability improvements.

Just updated and all internal noises are gone!!!

IBIS is a great improvement. But not usefull for anamorphic shooter.

@Rudolf you are right about its like a warp stabilizer or youtube "auto stabilize" weird correction.

If panasonic people can make a mode with only vertical stabilization (like the one in panoramic photo)  would be great for our scopes.

this problem occurs only with G80/G85... It's Pana's stabilazer that creates the problem....

I think NO.

It's makes no sense.

The G80 stabilizer works superb!

Whatever stabilizer that rotate the sensor behind a fixed anamorphic adapter will make the alignement changing, that result on "whoobling image".

I made a dirty test to show the issue. You can see the whoobling background when IBIS ON under heavy shake: (sorry for the flickering and those no profesional things)

Optical stabilization must be the same, but no as noticeable as sensor movements.

Moving sensor when anamorphic is fixed, is identical to moving anamorphic atachment when sensor has no IBIS.

Mesmerized effect.

Sensor stabilization makes my anamorphic image "under drugs":

Only if you can shoot on "vertical stabilization mode" like panoramic mode in some cameras could be usefull.

Does the g80 perform better in 16-255 over 0-255 ? Im still confused as to why you picked that range. Does it benefit the image or is that the range the lut is designed for ? @Andrew Reid

1+

No. I was talking about this kind os stabilizer. Sorry.

thx for help, if for example I mount this kind of follow focus on my canon 50mm f1.8 + 3axis gimbal? maybe the canon 50mm focus ring is so light that if I try to focus it will not make the camera shake...

 

 

  anyone of you has ever tryed something like this?

I think it's not a good idea.

When everything is balanced, you must hold the gimbals handle with one hand and other hand for guide/turn the central bar (usually 2 fingers only).

Look at youtube videos of Devin Graham (devinsupertramp) who is a "Glidecam Pro", that began with HD4000 and 5D mk3

For me, dual Ibis 2 and glidecam its a killer combo.

G85 + Hd2000 give me stunning footage and no need those modern electronic gimbals.

If you own the camera you have to put a quickplate on glidecam and make little marks on it for a very fast balance on the field.

Just put your camera-plate on the marks and only fine tunning is needed for a perfect balance. In less than 5 minutes you are ready to shoot.

More wide lens = more smooth shoot.

More f (aperture number) = more image on focus.

Practice and try to keep the distance!

"Photoshop method"

Easy and works great too.

New Nikon action cam?

It makes sense that they designed it to be shot underexposed

What about people that recomend ETTR? I was thinking in Leeming Lut, when Paul's advice is to overexpose a little bit in Cine D.

Some new settings I came up with building off of my experience with the GH4. Let me know what you think everything is straight out of camera...the most I did is convert the footage from 0-255 to 16-235

Like it, but found it a bit "Teal & Orange"  (as with LPP Tetrachrome or Osiris Luts.)

How do you get those colors straight out the camera?

Could you share yours settings?

I'm using a Lexar Professional 1000x 128GB SDXC UHS-II/U3 Card (Up to 150MB/s read) with no problems.

Found it really cheap on Amazon Flash deals.

Do the pants of the guy look pink? At least on my screen they do. I have the same problem with Pro Color for Panasonic and my G81. While skin tones look really great all of my footage gets a pink color cast after applying the LUT even if I use the recommended camera settings and a white balance that look fine in the original footage.

Heavy pink cast.

3.lut adjusted lowering rose tint and saturation=geat image indeed.

What is exactly the Lut adjustment workflow?

Because i see pinks and oranges oversaturated with only lut applied.

Non IBIS cameras last much longer, in example G6, G7 and for sure the GH4.

Download the correct file for your camera version (name) and your OS self-extractor.

Put it on an empty Sd Card formatted with the cam.

Power on the camera and press review (play) Button.

And I'd like to know if anyone can tell me what battery life is for video on G85. 

With IBIS ON, not so great.

Probably the same as GX80; without Stabilization is OK, but IBIS and WIFI conection kill battery badly.
