@Vitaliy_Kiselev Where did that quote come from? Also, indeed Color Space has nothing to do with codec, but I never said such thing. I simply stated that the HLG standard uses REC.2100, that's simply part of HLG's specifications. I just…

There is another interesting bit regarding the GH5 and HEVC. Hybrid Log Gamma uses REC.2100 and its content has to be 4K 10-bit 422 but H.264 doesn't support HLG, so unless that changes, it will have to be H.265 - since I don't expect the…

Does somebody know if you shoot at 180fps, can you choose not to conform in camera and output a 180fps video file to play with it in post? Or do you have to choose some framerate up to 60fps? I'm curious about the bitrate of each fps output.

@AKED nice! Where did you get it? I searched a lot for it back in CES but could only grab a few snapshots that Newsshooter interview showed - that was taken down afterwards... hahahaha...

@driftwood any chance of false color monitoring?

@sam_rides_a_mtb Panasonic already said that it's one V-log per camera.

GH5 Panasonic camera, from anticipation to love or hate
@soulkeeper You are correct. Each camera has to have its own V-log and once you attach to one camera, you need another one for a different camera. You can't use the same for several cameras since as you pointed out, it's attached to the se…

EspenB No, he said 1,89x and it was a trivia sent by his friend to say that with focal reducer it would have the same crop as some RED camera and later he said that he didn't really have such info from Panasonic, that it wasn't MAR. And a…

@chipxsd it would need that much to do a proper 10-bit 422 but if Panasonic will bring 400Mbps mid-2017, they could very well make the hi-res anamorphic around 300Mbps 10-bit 422.

@Ralph_B these are VFR codecs, the bitrate will change based on the amount of info, you basically set the quality and the file size will float accordingly, so it doesn't change anything. It's like saying that 24p will be better quality bec…

Ralph_B I understand that, I just think that your option is more complicated and less likely to happen, plus the space you save, file transfer time, processing demands, etc. there is very little gain IMO. Crop markings in open gate, that would be i…

@Ralph_B if you have crop marking you can easily do that in post @driftwood I couldn't remember the AVC Ultra's specs from the top of my head, so after the chat last week I went to check it and AVC Ultra up 30p is exactly 400Mbps, so alt…

Things Panasonic could implement: * charging via USB * crop marks/guides on screen while shooting video * 4K with HEVC options - including All-I * option to crop in 4K from the normal 2x crop up to 1:1 pixel 2.5x crop, this gives the user the flex…

2 of the guys that shot with the GH5 plus Nick Driftwood replied to me that they think the new firmware update of 400Mbps All-I will be H.265. Nick even said that since HEVC is 2x more efficient it would be like an All-I 800Mbps in the GH4 with an H…

@Tron I saw one guy testing the footage and he said it's VBR and it maxed out at around 200Mbps.

@liork it's the same pixel count. GX8, Pen-F, E-M1 II and GH5, they all have a 5184 x 3888 pixel sensor. Panasonic saying 20.3MP and Olympus saying 20.4 is just a different in how they made the pixel approximation but both sensors have the exac…

Some video modes have HEVC H.265 but it's not clear all modes supports it. It would be interesting then if they could implement an All-I version of H.265 as well, not just the 400 Mbbps H.264 codec.

225-points of CDAF is good but no PDAF may be a bit concerning for tracking AF since everybody that has improved it has adopted PDAF. Along with Waveform and Vectorscope, False Color would had been nice as well. I wonder what Panasonic will say ab…

It's probably all H.264, IPB for 150Mbps - hopefully not 100Mbbps for 24p/25p/30p and 150Mbps just for 60p - and then afterwards they will release a 400Mbps H.264 All-I. I wonder why only in late 2017. Haven't they managed to make it work…

@aldolega If Panasonic is going to offer H.265, why can't they also offer H.264? I mean, DJI just did that, they are offering H.265 but there is still H.264 for those that prefer it, Panasonic could simply do the same. It doesn't need to b…

@Eno I think it is, it's what makes the most sense. As mentioned before, to surpass the $2000 barrier would be complicated and pricing it similarly to the E-M1 seems natural, even more so if the speculation of shared tech between the two camera…

@Vitaliy_Kiselev but I think you are both talking about @Brig, not me. I simply wrote articles about the GH5 and wanted to discuss more about codecs, encoding, etc. I've never talked about JVC firmware, Panasonic and him or anything like that…

@LPowell Why are you tagging me into that discussion? I've never mentioned you, I don't even know who you are nor the people that were talking about you. I think you are mistaking me with someone else.

Another thing that I thought is that if this is indeed a multi-aspect sensor and it works similarly to the LX100. It means that in 16:9 it might be 18MP, but in 4:3 it's 20+MP, in 3:2 is 19-20MP, this turns this Photo 4K much closer to the E-M1…

@endotoxic this is not about being productive though, at least I didn't do this with that in mind, it's simply that I do that with everything, I like the speculation and digging things deeper until I find something that makes sense, it…
