Panasonic G3 Stable Settings

luisnando — Wed, 17 Oct 2012 07:59:29 +0000

I managed to fix the writing error on the previous patches messing with the buffer size. Actually I put 170M bitrate and the small shootings I made really passed through with no errors! Since I am still learning about those settings, I would like to ask someone to analyze the data and see if I really got it. Annexed goes my patch.

I based my settings over Driftwood cluster v6 settings.

Panasonic G3 official topic

More details at - http://www.43rumors.com/continually-updated-panasonic-g3-announced/

To be short:

* Less buttons (you do not need AEL, right?).
* No eye sensor (You like play quest games enabling EVF via touch menu?)
* Noisier sensor compensated by math (read - more details blur).
* Intelligent resolution (read - more sharpness accentuating even minor flaws).
* And this magic button, ouch forget how it is called, something like Super-Druper-Auto-Everything-Intelligence-Not-From-This-Planet.
I think that it decides then you must take your pictures and prevents you to take any picture if it does not like this sour mugs ;-)
But I may misread something.

Overall, looks pretty cool for young girl.
Panasonic, why we don't see it in pink? Look at Pentax!

It'll be so better!

Panasonic G3 worse standard quality compared to GF1

5Lion — Tue, 13 May 2014 08:14:02 +0000

I ´ve been using Panasonic GF1 for years and even hacked it successfully. Now I bought the Panasonic G3 and I am very disappointed with the picture quality for pictures and video compared to GF1. Have more user´s noticed differences? Could Panasonic have altered the firmware between different GF, GH and G models to produce differences to justify price increases between models? If, how can one see it? I checked the .bin firmware with Ptool but could not find clues.

Hdmi live out except gh2 & hg3?

vovka_berd — Wed, 19 Jun 2013 08:02:55 +0000

Hello. According to the version history gf3 and g3 are almost identical to gh2. So I have a question: do they live hdmi out while video recording? Or does some other bodies maybe? Thanks in advance.

Second hand body to compliment GH2 - G3 or G2??

cmountman — Sun, 17 Mar 2013 07:26:58 +0000

I am looking to purchase a second body to compliment my GH2 and lenses. I am looking at the G3 and G2 and was wondering what you guys think is the best option?

I am in the UK where these cameras can sell very cheaply on ebay

Thanks

G3 hack plans?

Winterdune — Sun, 17 Jul 2011 14:03:13 +0000

Hi all,

Does anyone know if the G3 is likely to be hacked (to provide things like manual control for video, and maybe 1080 50/60p)?

Thanks,
Sean

G3 and Canon 550d

G3550D — Sat, 07 Jan 2012 07:35:06 +0000

Hi, I own a canon 550d and a lumix g3 and edit footage in Sony Vegas Studio 11 (HD Platinum). Does anyone have any suggestions or tips on how to use footage from both cameras in the same project - for example the lumix is interlaced and the canon isn't. Many thanks Stan
