    @mpgxsvcd Ah I see, thanks for the clarification!

    They just wanted to use standard term, it is Class 10. But very shitty Class 10 cards exist.

    Hello, please correct me if I'm wrong:

    • no more multi aspect aspect ratio sensor
    • no mention on minimum shutter speed option in auto ISO
    • no mention on zebra and/or some kind of realtime liveview highlight clipping
    • no mention on focus peaking

    Any comment is welcome.

  • OASYSOASYS

    No news about the silver body?

  • mpgxsvcdmpgxsvcd

    *1 Use a card with SD Speed Class with "Class10"

    *2 Use a card with SD Speed Class with “Class 4” or higher.

    .MOV files require class 10

    All others still only require Class 4. It is amazing that they have All I frame recording with a warranty for class 10 cards. I don't believe there are any all intra GH2 settings that will never fail with "any" class 10 card.

    @gokuan003 Gh3 image quality seems definitely different from Gh2. I wouldn't say it's better or worse. But that makes Gh2's image quality to be unique. Definitely I'm not selling mine. Gh1 was different story where it's high bitrate 24p was sorta unstable.

    Is the LCD screen larger? Wondering how my Varivon Loupe will fit?

    Have to say I am very disappointed about Peaking and Zebras. For me though the solid body and other bells and whistles is just enough to make me consider upgrading.

    Damn rumours got my hopes up. The rumour sights seemed to sure to be wrong. booo!

    @gabb3r

    Because I don't always shoot at 2x frame rate for shutter speed. If there is very little motion then as fast a shutter as possible will yield the sharpest image.

    But yes if there is a great deal of motion I would set it to 60 FPS and probably something like 1/125 through 1/500 shutter speed depending on how fast that motion is. The faster the motion the closer to 2x frame rate I go.

    Indoors I usually cannot go faster than 1/125th because of fluorescent lighting.

    @stonebat ok thank you for your opinion ...

  • stoneystoney

    @VK 48p or 50p for slow motion... I don't think it would make that much difference.

    If it were the real time speed at 48p, yeap that would have been awesome.

  • gabb3rgabb3r

    Any news about HDR? I suppose it's only for stills photography, right?

  • Vitaliy_KiselevVitaliy_Kiselev

    As you may notice by twitter, Dieter made photos and video using GH3, and will upload them for analysing after he'll be home :-)

  • TraumManufakturTraumManufaktur

    @driftwood Photokina Team @Aked has files of GH3 on SD card. Stills and video, no word if .mts or mov

  • mpgxsvcdmpgxsvcd

    @Vitaliy_Kiselev

    Waiting for your firmware or theirs?

    HDMI output is 1080p. Not sure if that is 60p, 30p, or 24p though.

    mini HDMI TypeC Video: Auto / 1080p / 1080i / 720p / 480p (576p in PAL system) Audio: Dolby® Digital

  • gabb3rgabb3r

    @mpgxsvcd Why are you saying goodbye to ND filters for video? if you want to record motion blur as a human eye does, wouldn't you always need ND filters to stay around 1/60 shutter?

  • Vitaliy_KiselevVitaliy_Kiselev

    @stonebat

    Yep, no 48p, my most loved mode.

    Will be waiting for firmware :-)

  • Vitaliy_KiselevVitaliy_Kiselev

    I wonder if it will do 1/16,000 with electronic shutter for stills?

    We'll know soon

  • stoneystoney

    @kavadni

    24 / .4 = 60

    24 / .48 = 50

    24 / .8 = 30

    And so on. Panasonic engineers love integers.

  • mpgxsvcdmpgxsvcd

    Still Images: 1/4,000 - 60 and Bulb Motion Images: 1/16,000 - 1/30 (NTSC), 1/16,000 - 1/25 (PAL)

    Good bye ND filters for video!

    I wonder if it will do 1/16,000 with electronic shutter for stills?

  • stoneystoney

    @gokuan003 Don't sell Gh2 yet. If you can, keep it.

  • kavadnikavadni

    What would be the reasoning behind the slow motion speeds 40% / 48% / 80% / 160% / 200% / 300%. I am guessing it is derived/determined from clock frequencies readily available in the camera, thoughts? I ask out of curiousity

  • stoneystoney

    @hedrox I like AVCHD. And I like MOV. But putting them in a same room... I don't like. They might step on each others feet.

  • gokuan003gokuan003

    :) Good news remains to be seen if I sell the GH2, or take the GH2 and GH3? I'm lost: D I would like your opinion on the topic XD

  • mpgxsvcdmpgxsvcd

    @Vitaliy_Kiselev

    Sorry. I fixed most of them.

  • stoneystoney

    @mlysbakken +1. That's a great loss of pixels when cropping 4:3 on already cropped 16:9.
