GH5 Panasonic camera, from anticipation to love or hate

@caveport with all the news about camera companies, I'm starting to feel sorry for the big 4.

@Manu4Vendetta my testing shows that VFR on GH5 is full of moire and really only usable if shooting organic things, like water.

Would be nice if Panasonic could fix the low quality VFR in the next Firmware. But I get the feeling its a sensor thing. Could be wrong though. There may be lots of maths calculated on the processor that is throwing away detail... I would love to be proven wrong.

Hopefully with the separation of Lumix team from ProVideo, Lumix will be able to make changes that won't be considered Varicam killers.

@alcomposer, I'm not getting virtually any aliasing and moire when shooting 120 and 180 fps. Double check your files on different machines and or displays. I thought I was getting tons of moire with 4K 60p and it turned out to be only an issue when viewing the files in MPC-HC on a 27" 2.5k display. 4K and 1080 displays don't show it at all. In any case it's worth a double check.

Cheers, Pete

A short test with my new camera !

@c3hammer I think it depends on what you are shooting as well. I tested in car with powerlines above moving forward.

First weekend with my GH5 a month ago, I meant to test most of the features while shooting some Parkour / Freerunning. Ended up getting obsessed with 180fps slowmo. Amazing feature. Here's a video of the test footage I shot with a talking intro and then some discussion of my experiences with it after.

@valpopando - Thanks for sharing this. The graded skin tones are distractingly magenta though. What did you use for grading? Is it a LUT?
