Hey Everyone Upcoming update for GH5 is on Monday 
Panasonic has announced the first of its planned firmware updates (Ver.1.1) for the LUMIX GH5, which will expand the camera’s 4:2:2 10-bit video recording mode.
The new firmware enables 4:2:2 10-bit video recording in either FHD [MP4(LPCM)] / [MOV] or Anamorphic (4:3) modes, in addition to the existing 4K video recording mode. The GH5 delivers Cinema 4K (4096×2160) video at 60p and 4K at 50p, using the entire width of the sensor when shooting 4K and then downsampling the footage in-camera.
What the firmware will offer
In 4:2:2 10-bit 1920×1080 Full HD [MP4(LPCM)] / [MOV] mode the firmware will offer 50p and 25p (PAL), 59.94p, 29.97p and 23.98p (NTSC) and 24p (Cinema) – all at 100Mbps with Long GOP image compression. Whilst in 4:2:2 10-bit Anamorphic mode (3328×2496) it will offer 25p (PAL), 29.97p and 23.98p (NTSC) and 24p (Cinema) at 150Mbps with Long GOP image compression.
Bug fixes
The firmware version 1.1 for the GH5 also includes following bug fixes:
• A problem in which the exposure adjustment did not operate properly during live view standby under specific condition in using (Variable Frame Rate).
• A problem in which afterimages appeared when recording video under high ISO sensitivity settings in using (V-LogL).
Release date
The new GH5 firmware (Ver.1.1) is scheduled to be released on Monday 24 April 2017 – you will be able to find out all about it on that day by visiting the LUMIX Customer Support website by clicking http://av.jpn.support.panasonic.com/support/global/cs/dsc/

Not sure if this has been posted. Looks great! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMMasJ1N_Sg

Here's some pointers, search for 'DMW-SFU1':
e.g. both Digifoto and Fotokoch seem to be sending stuff abroad. No stock yet though. https://geizhals.eu/panasonic-dmw-sfu1-updateschluessel-a1567852.html . Might wanna shoot a msg in direction of these guys too: https://www.panasonicstore.ie/about-us/ . Or https://eng.faq.panasonic.com/app/ask/p/5 , does say 'UK & Ireland', so they must gotta have some info for you on how to get a hold of one. Gd luck.

No way people will cancel there orders for no
10bit ,focus peaking , 5axia ibis, etc
plus price point of Gh5 is bargain for indifilmakers 
i agree canon has best PDAF but 8bit and mayby ML thats something i cant gamble my money on

Omg yes yes Canon is the best  is that what u want everyone to say?
its not just Focus peaking 
5-axis in-body image stabilisation system with DUAL IS image stabilisation
Waveform and vectorscope monitors
Internal 4K/30p 10-bit 4:2:2 
1080 video at up to 180p
Pre-config rack focus mode
No record time limits
4K/59.94p and 50p shooting with 10-bit 4:2:2 external output or 8-bit, 4:2:0 internal at 150Mbps IPB (two firmware upgrades in April and the summer will bring 10bit HD 4:2:2 recording and DCI/UHD 4K 4:2:2 10-bit recording at 400Mbps internally, and 1080/60p 4:2:2 10-bit recording at 200Mbps, all using All-I. Anamorphic support coming then, too
 
Now if u can find Body that coast similar price in Canon with specs i just posted please i will Cancel my preorders because i love canon too 

Heatsinks has to be modifed in order to run new firmware without premature warning 
also last ML update work was on 70D 3 years ago roughly 
and again why pay 1500$more for tech thats outdated ? 
Your filmmaker and all u need is PDFA? ???

No arguement there 80D does have best autofocus but it lacks 4K and slomo, thats main reason am jumping from 80D :/ but if combine EOSHd C_Log with 80D u get asome footage )not mention when combo is 18-35 1.8 

dpaf vs Advanced dfd

Pretty impressive IBIS and man is that shooter a fast runner...
But I think that video would have looked the same way if it was shot with a $300 Panasonic camcorder.

Once we get closer and see the pre-show announcements/leaks, I'll probably have a few. Thanks in advance.
Questions about unannounced products always get the same canned answer - "we cannot comment on future products." But its good to keep prodding them to show there's interest.

Long time GH4 user here...I was GH5 hesitant at first...BUT I Gotta say, I have recently seen a few GH5 vids on vimeo and youtube that have blown me away.
The GH5 Welder video for example the colors are just great, some of the best I have seen...many people in the comments too have stated that they cant believe this was done on a GH5, to me they are very Alexa like.
Another I saw recently, just a sunset, no special postwork or anything, but I swear tho the colors ...I could never get those out of the GH4,and I am pretty proficient in Premiere and using Lumetri.
There is something about the colors that is really special, not too over the top, but far more dimension than the GH4, and I have seen some pretty decent skin tones too.
All in all this camera seems to be able to do me for several years,Just need to sell a few things, I cant wait to get one.

something to consider in future,  Anamorphic Glass should be next on my list after my baby arrives fingers crossed shouldn't take long 

No lock-ups with the adapter yet but please wait and see. Very early days! The AF is good in stills mode with the adapter but nowhere near as good as with the Panasonic and Olympus lenses, which are lightning fast.
The anamorphic mode on the GH5 is a resolution feast... Seriously nice. I will be putting my anamorphic lenses on it, and with a 2x lens if you kept the vertical resolution as high as it comes off the card and did the de-squeeze by stretching 2x horizontally you end up with a 10K frame

Lol. Guys, you do realise you sound like diehard Canon fanboys but in IT world?  

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

Auckland, New Zealand. The shop (ACC) just called so I'm going over now. Will shoot the feature film on the way back ;p 
Of course we all know a proper review means shooting the review on an RX100 while holding the GH5 and looking at it for 20 minutes. 

Good news  so looks like rumors of 22nd were true...

Youtube & Vimeo gona have some Flooding with GH5 vids in couple days  i cant wait to get my copy

Just been with Nick Dirftwood playing around with a GH5 this morning and the IBIS is very very impressive even just in your hand with no rig ..... I do like this feature a lot especially on a shoulder rig for hand held shots , it does get rid of micro jitter and torn frames which I hate on hand held footage , and the rolling shutter is minimal - this is also great news for panning shots they don't lean over!! At last I can do great pans on a hand held rig. You can also upload your own LUTs into the camera , a very useful feature to have. 10 bit 422 looks superb ,we are getting into Alexa type quality looking footage now , the detail and clean blacks are there . I do think this camera is a game changer for Indy film makers . Panasonic are sending me one to use on the next film I'm about to start shooting, so I will share footage so you can see how good it is .PS on a Panny native lens you can programme in focus points on the rear screen  and it will pull focus between those two points very useful feature to have . you can actually programme in 3 focus points in all. We all as indie film makers have to thank Nick Driftwood for working closely with Panasonic to get these great new film making tweeks implemented on the GH5 .
