    Absolutely +10000
    I am going to write a blog about this.
    Adobe's GH5 support has been completely off-hand.
    Do you have a Mac to hand? Try EditReady, it's the best $50 I ever spent.

    V-Log with an additional no processing mode (no sharpening, no noisereduction etc.). Just a clean output.

    I'll throw in the first suggestion:
    Be able to toggle on and off the vector scope and the waveform while shooting--like Sony cams can. And also show the vector scope and waveform on an external display--like Canon does.

    If it is in autofocus I can understand. In manual, much difficult to accept this behaviour of the camera. Tap to focus can't be wrong then, it should work fine.

    You press the 'up' button on the controller / joystick.

    On previous GH cameras the centre top position of the control dial would act as a play button when in playback mode, still awaiting Gh5's arrival here to be sure

    Man, read the last pages: this is previous week news. Sorry, but you know how news run fast these days... ;-)
    This kind of reports on bad AF performance reminds me when people want to mimic Hollywood from default settings on their Walmart camera :-D

    Can you please try to replicate his shots where he was showing a lens to the camera? I think those examples are the worst.

    No problem marty, will do.
    Uploading to Youtube now.
    It's hard to believe that the lens could make all the difference I'm seeing between Max's video and mine.
    Zmarty, here ya go. Give it a bit of time to upgrade to 4K. It's now a low rez, but you should still see the focus.

    Hey guys. I shared some of my videos a few days ago and it turned into a crazy thread that got super religious and out of hand. I want to apologize by the way I responded. If I came across being harsh or "matter of fact" I am really truly sorry. I will continue to make YouTube content and am taking what I have learned from this forum and will apply it to my videos going forward. 

    If I offended anyone please accept my sincere apology.

    Hey,
    I think you should shoot in 10bit as you will not run into as much banding + you have more grading options. 
    Cheers

    Yeah we can change the command line parameters to get better audio. I can take a look later.

    The 4K 10 bit files that GH5 records internally cannot be read by some software such as Resolve. Also, the files are in an inter-frame codec so editing crawls to a halt in some software.

    The solution is to transcode from H.264 10 bit to an intraframe codec like Prores. Here is an ffmpeg command line that does that:

    ffmpeg -i "input.mp4" -c:v prores_ks -profile:v 2 -qscale:v 11 -vendor ap10 -pix_fmt yuv422p10le "output.mov"
    But you have to be very careful to use an ffmpeg version that was compiled for 10 bit support.

    Paul Leeming posted this example of extreme VLog ghosting at high ISO on the GH5 facebook page:

    Another user mentioned that Panasonic has said that if there is a demand to turn off NR completely, they will do it. Perhaps it's time to voice your concerns to Panasonic if ghosting like this is a problem for you.
    Personally, I would prefer to control the NR myself, and I'm sure many others would too.

    Do you remember the settings for the first video? What is your opinion of the pans in the first video? I think there are motion problems, I don't know why.

    4K 60 fps 8-bit 150 Mbps footage shot in V-Log L yields green and magenta (compression?) artifacts when converted to Rec709 by DaVinci Resolve with their color management solution.
    While the image below is a 2X magnification, it is also plainly visible in moving images at normal size. This is my dog's hair, btw
    I wonder if the color processing for V-Log in Resolve is mostly geared towards Varicams.

    I will also check 4K 30 fps 10 bit internal and external.

    HOWEVER, if I color grade the same footage manually starting from the V-Log, without using automatic color management, then I can make it look better. The artifacts are still visible when pixel peeping, but not obvious during play:
