Mercer the living IBIS:) Sad, that my favorite thread seems no more active due to the GH5s, which makes using lenses obsolete:)

GX85 plus the 20mm is a pretty combo:) That lens with manual mechanical focus and mainting its pancake form factor would be so awesome. Awesome lens. Exellent TStop as well. I am starting to lust that old schoold 25mm 1.4 PanaLeica and the 15mm 1.7. Though still fly by wire GH5s, give it zero sharpening setting and full VLOG curve and I will preorder. As crazy as it would be for me to buy a camera of that price, even though it would be the best camera deal of the last decades. Wowsers, I think both look great. One thing is very obvious, launch videos are better than they were for the GH5.

Obviously it is massively worse than the GH5s codec. A7s giving us worse performance at the setting with 12800ISO, of which I gave an example above. Half of the persons pants are one complete dark area on the Sony camera! The other shot with the two Lumix cams has a spinning wheel at the right, so it has a moving object in there. Inazuma, on a screen bigger than 19inches blocking of the Sony camera is massively obvious. You can call it a draw between the two cams, which is an awesome performance for both of the cameras.These blocks on the A7s are like 8bit NES, whereas Panasonic blotches are still video. It would be considered better performance on a big screen for the GH5s. At ultra ultra lowlight of course, it is not performing to the same sensitivity as the A7s cameras.

Luke, your film is boss. So was YOUR grading in the previews:) Here is your awesome video on lighting. Thank you very much for this!

Muaha, lol. That compression blocking is massive, it´s like old 256 VGA color mode from 1998, muaha! Some tint easily corrected with a color wheel in the software of your choice. No cure for the A7s image on this 12800ISO sample. So up to 12800iso, comparable performance, even much better on the gh5s in this scene. But let´s read what master Ebrahim has to say about this, giving his supreme analysis on the dp forum very soon!

I note better performance of GH5s at f5.6, 12800iso, rec709. Look at the massive artefacts, blocking on the A7s. Gruesome. So in some lowlight scenarios, one will fare better with the GH5s. Open in new tab for enlargement.

There are some lowlight scenarios where the A7s codec will show nasty artefacts, where the GH5s, even the GH5 will not. But interested in any findings about ISO 6400 footage. By the way, Kai is lacking a bit in competence regarding video compared to experts such as Luke Neumann or Jordan from TCS. I think evaluation of advantages does barely come across in his video. Here is a screeshot comparing GH5s to the original GH5, 6400 ISO, 12lux!, f2.8, shutter 25th second, massive improvement, shooting at 6400ISO will be not a problem with this camera. Just click on preview below:

Depending on sensor tech, lol! At same exposure levels and in lowlight situation GH5S video shows same noise performance as A7SII at ISO 6400. Above 12800 ISO A7S is better, at 51200 it´s eating it for breakfast of course. But ISO6400 quality like an A7s, thats awesome lowlight performance! You can watch the video on youtube, which is comparing the GH5s with the sony, the EVA1 and with the original GH5.

That is great to know! Thanks for sharing info.

What´s up with Matt Frazier? I loved that guy.

I figured you would already be convinced.:) As if I was comparing "Gone with the wind" and "Avatar" regarding their boxoffice success, I was assuming that I have included that kind of "inflation factor" in my observation and judgement. Comparing GH5s to GH5 then, if picture quality is up to EVA standards and lowlight up to C300II standards then this camera has more going for it than I was assuming just one hour ago, to say the least. It would be a cinema camera with image quality just like a c300ii or a varicam lt with a price being very laughable by comparison. Rolling shutter would be interesting to know, as well if it has a setting for zero sharpening.

Luke, people are out of likes for today. They have been throwing around with it today because of the GH5Ss´ launch day today! So maybe come back a bit later Awesome footage despite not being graded by you. Congratulations!

Compared to a LS300 it´s pretty swell as a launch price. GH5s with better image, much better grading potential, 10bit vs 8bit, nice EVF and LCD, much better lowlight, no internal NDs of course. It is an interesting deal just like LS300 was and still is.

That´s why you would love full curve for that varicam look which is in the same league as arri.

@Andrew Reid, I knew it, you were up to something being so surprisingly quiet about rumors, you sneaky cool cat. We love you, Andrew!

Yeah full VLOG is for EVA1 and Varicam cameras, providing 14stops rather than 12 stops of dynamic range. With full VLOG curve they would have given us the same image as Varicam 35 and LT. Woundn´t that have been crazy and amazing! It would also have provided us with the possibility to turn sharpness completely off.

no full VLOG curve:( Hopefully sharpness can be completely turned off.

Panasonic would also have to rearrange or even put a completely different IBIS in the camera due to new sensor layout and its slight oversize due to multi aspectratios

Muaha, muaha, lol! That mimicry of a term is a nonsensical nonterm.There is no such thing as cultural marxism. What this right wing term is describing is in need of a better name. It´s neither cultural forofilmsism nor cultural pannysvhsism, muahaha! To connect Arnold Toynbee to this term is very misleading.

Yeah, that graphic has a funky mixture of fonts, fontsize, going all bold and red and nuts with weird layout and adventureous grid. Full VLOG instead of VLOG L, please! Now Panasonic heard me, just on time:)

GH5 doesn´t have TC? Edit: Got it now:) Cheers

Funky mixed fonts and fontsizes in the lower right part of the graphic. So many comments in the last five minutes. Thread getting fat and bloated:)

If it does not have full VLog instead of VLogL curve nor option for turning sharpness completely off and "only" one stop improvement in lowlight, I think GH5 would be the better choice for my shortfilmmaking pleasures. Edit: Well, if it has the first two features, I would be satisfied with one stop improvement! By the way, that graphic design of the comparision chart of the two cameras looks very, very dubious, especially the lower part of the GH5s specs. @Cinegain. G9 still has no high bitrate HD mode nor HVFR modes nor 10bit. HD has gotten worse on the lesser Lumix cams since the G7. G7 was the peak of the lesser bunch when it comes to resolution.

@webrunner5, yeah, it has a really great feel to it. Gnarly, so? Look at the bricks in the background my friend. I would call that a true resolution feat! Remember, original footage would have the vertical height of a 2K scan, which it was digitized with. I really love that piece too, big time. Grapes of Wrath is a great description of the mood. Gonna watch it again now:) Good night

Bob ain´t sellin cars. And Lee Moses is a forgotten Soul genius or even more true: he´s hardly been recognized in his time. Youtube can be still a place to find gems like this. I always feel disgusted with the current youpoop startpage, so I have a link in my bookmarks with AF100 as a search term:)
