@kellar42 Me too. Although I downloaded the original file and while theres clearly something done wrong in post. the video shows more detail than what ive seen from Canon,nikon and sony cameras. So hmmmmmm...

Could someone who has the gh2 and gh3 do a side by side panning shot with some brick wall. This moire/aliasing issue or non issue is just dragging so long even if the camera is still out. I think it is a given that the gh3 is better in low light so no need to see more of these.

For it is urgent that someone does a side by side test about the moire/aliasing, because if videos like the one with the church above is just horrible and if it not representative of the gh3 than it is making a lot of bad publicity to it.

But then if it is true and representative of the gh3 than why any need for a hack, etc. Because it shares the same family number than the gh2. At least with me, I would look elsewhere.

@Mimirsan

Looking at all owners reports I do not see any that mention moire that is more than GH2.

@Vitaliy Thats true but that "churchyard" video is pretty extreme amount of moire (if it is genuine) way more than the GH2 would. Ive shot in similar surroundings with GH2 and had nothing what that video demonstrates.

Maybe the ones who currently own GH3's havent experienced something that would ring it off so much yet. Still early days.

It would be nice to rule out the churchyard video example. See something shot similar. Just for peace of mind.

At this point there are FAR more videos that show no real signs of bad Moire/Aliasing than ones that do. Why is it that some only seem to want to focus on the few videos that show some? Whatever the reason for the issue in some videos, the 1st hand reports from those who actually have the GH3 also confirm that it's not a major issue that some are trying to make it out to be.

I may be in the minority but I don't go out of my way to look for evidence of flaws. Unless they jump out and become distracting to the point of not being ignored, then I don't go pixel peeping to try and find an apartment window on the 30th floor that shows some moire in the background of a scene. Rather than moire tests I want to see some more well done scenes that can show just how good this camera can be. I like the many creative modes that @driftwood demonstrated. The GH3 seems like a far more adjustable than the GH2 was.

I just have a question about those creative modes: Are these some "process" of the GH3 AFTER it shot or is it a different way for the GH3 to grab the picture? I'm conscious my question sounds corny, Im sorry english is not my native language... But the point is to know if these creative modes are just some "filters" that could as well be made in postproduction with better skills by pros than some presets for my girlfriend when she uses the camera? Because if it is the later, I don't see the point except to look for the flattest profile possible.

I have a GH2 and for 2 years I put videos online on VIMEO. I extols the benefits of this amazing camera. I could compare it to 5DmII, the FS100, the D800 and recently 5DmIII. Always the same love for the GH2. Like all of you I expect the GH3 for months, and like all of you, I put a lot of hope in this new camera: to finally work with GH3 for TV. Panasonic has the opportunity to capture a very wide range of buyers and to guide the GH3 professionals (those who see only Canon brodcoast for work). So I find it normal that the first tests point to the problems of moiré this camera! I do not expect that I made ​​this the perfect picture under optimal conditions. I am waiting to give defects! Qualities necessarily exist! As for 5DmIII or D800 or any other cameras.

This does not convince me. Little noise, but the video quality seems from a smartphone -probably a bad renderization?-

Hmm, the more footage I see the more I tend to dislike the GH3. It's sad really, such an amazing camera on paper, with features I REALLY want. But alas, I just don't like the image all that much. It just lacks something organic that the GH2 had.

Wish I could specify what's unappealing about the image, perhaps it's slightly more plastic and artificial looking than the GH2. Whatever it is, I think I'm gonna stick with my GH2 and wait out until that magical day the BMC actually ships.

@ vk thank-you for your creative attention to... well, keeping these forums on task. as a reader/learner, sifting thru chaff can be tiring.
