    @dutchAerail. But M or S are functions to take photo's. Am I wrong? I want to change shutter speed while filming.

  • DutchAerialDutchAerial

    Yes, you have to set it to M of S mode.

  • beeldlabbeeldlab

    Just recieved my new GH3. Anyone any idea how to change shutter speed in movie mode?

    @vempire Probably in an update.

    Meanwhile, here's a Vimeo transcode of GH3 footage test screengrab - original prores left, h264 /vimeo right.

    Hope I´m not going offtopic here: At the moment the gh3 can no longer be controlled via wifi when record has been enabled. Basically it would make a lot more sense if focus could be controlled during recording. Any ideas if that will come with fixes in lumix link. Currently the whole wifi functionality seems to be very unstable. Thanks Holger

    For some reason I'm not able to download the user manuals on my main PC. But it worked on another one. The 10 MB Advanced user features (320 pages long) was nice to study while I wait for the camera.

    Guys, with Lightroom, plesae, go into Lightroom topic, we have one.

    @MDavid and @uzland:

    Did you install LR 4.3 Release Candidate? THis has support for GH3 RW2 files.

  • MDavidMDavid

    uzland, you're not alone-- I can't read the files on Lightroom pro either.

  • uzlanduzland

    Also my iPhone 4s wouldn't connect to GH3 through WiFi. It says "connecting" and the at the end "connection lost". Any tips?

  • uzlanduzland

    Not sure if I am asking in the right section or this question was addressed already, but I can't view RAW (RW2) files from GH3 on anything - iMac Finder, Photoshop 5, Lightroom 3 and 4 (Got the update for Lightroom 4). They all show that they are up to date. What do I need to do to view the RAW files? Thanks.

    @cablefreak76 thanks for the info. I have never tryed the c100 my self, only seen it on a stand with a live feed output.

    The gh3 seem quite nice in your tests. People should understand that the low contrast/higher DR output could make some problems with CC because of the limited 8bit codec, make the picture somewhat messy when pushing it in post. That's why the gh2 often seems so good after CC, nice balance between output DR/contrast and the 8bit color space. The limited DR force you to be more carefull with proper lighting, which actually is a good thing dealing with a 8bit limit.

    Have you guys noticed that moire in footage posted by Mimirsan on page 1 is quite severe in 25/50p mode and is minimal in 24p. How come?

  • jamesgh2jamesgh2

    @Mimirsan

    I have never seen moire so severe my GH2 I think something is handled badly in processing. mpgxsvcd is right!

  • jfilmmakerjfilmmaker

    Can someone do a test with Panasonic Leica 25mm lens vs. equivalent manual lens on GH3 (w/ maybe GH2 as control) for video aliasing/moíre. Trying to figure out whether that is a safe lens to go with or whether it encourages aliasing/moíre.

    Thanks!

  • cablefreak76cablefreak76

    @adventsam and @andrevanberlo I would definitely do more thorough tests as I own both cameras. Just very pressed with time that's why I threw out the shaky one to compare other aspects, no IQ comparison! I believe the sensors are very similar (probably both Sony though) but not equal, I believe the low pass filter and hot mirror is the main differing part but in terms of IQ the diff is minimal. The OM-D is really quite sensitive to IR while the GH3 is virtually blind in that spectrum... Hence the conclusion :)

    @fix the C100 has the edge with horisontal resolution, while being much degraded vertically and the noise looks extremely video-ish... The choice is easy unless you need to go extremely high-iso... The C100's native sensor makes for some extreme sensitivity, just too bad the in-cam codec is that crappy..

  • olegkalyanolegkalyan

    If I could ask to shoot a resolution compare chart, GH2 vs GH3, Nick D., or the owner of both bodies, would you? Same lens please!

  • MimirsanMimirsan

    @mpgxsvcd It depends what you are shooting. GH2 has some moire to some degree. Theres been plenty of other examples shown from both cams now that people are getting them.

  • mpgxsvcdmpgxsvcd

    @Mimirsan

    I have never seen moire like that with my GH2 or my GH3.

  • MimirsanMimirsan

    Just leaving this here...Geee the GH2 has moire...whowudda thought? ;-)

    @hoodlum

    I really suggest to use lens topic for this.
