I also chose Dark + Light. But the Intensity level has to be High. I noticed that the profile looks noticeably more Flat. Also, the Noise Reduction cannot be switched off, since then, it actually starts Creating fixed pattern noise. I hope it works on the Excellent Nexus 6p phone. That one's sensor is an engineering masterpiece. I was blown away by the 240fps video. The camera can actually do 300fps, and the 720p looks IMHO as sharp as the one from the Sony cameras (RX10 ii and RX100 iv). Also, it can do RAW 35fps at 12.35MP, apart from 4k at 60p. Pushing the bitrate in that one comparable to the GH4 would seriously be something. Maybe, as I predicted, mobile phone sensors will finally start competing with mhch larger sensors (beginning with, for video). This one was shot on the Cameringo app on a Note 2 or 3. And it was shot in terribly low indoor light. And the picture looksa lot more like Vlog.

Dear Developer, I tried the app on the Samsung S6 Edge, and while the video quality is excellent and comparable with DSLRs that shoot Full HD (Maybe even 4k), the profile could be More FLAT. Like the one on the Cameringo App, when the Contrast is pushed Completely Down. Thanks in advance ... ;-)

Very good question. On the better camera in phones argument, I have always wondered why they don't have faster lenses (f1.4?) on mobile phones, along with built-in ND filters? The f1.4 zoom idea sounds great. Or they should let users just buy and adapt better lenses on mobile phones, amd sell them separately. Why should we be stuck with fixed f2.0 lenses with tiny sensors. It's terrible. Especially at night. The sensor on the new Nexus 5x and 6p does 12.35 MP 12 Bit at 35 fps, 4k at 60p and 2k at 120fps. I guess the Snapdeagon 810 in the 6p may be able to handle a hack pushing up data rates, to capture more information. But I wonder if it will be able to do RAW at 30 or 35 fps without burning (exploding in the case of the Snapdragon 810).

The new Nexus 5X and 6P have just been announced, and will be hitting the markets around October sometime. They obviously have been upgraded in big ways, and what is most impressive, is something that seems completely unannounced (specifically), in the Press Release (the videos and the documents provided). Both these mobiles phones, sport a New Sony Sensor, namely the Sony IMX 377 CQT sensor. What is Very interesting, about the sensor, is this: It does full pixel readout, of its 12.35 MP Sensor, at 12 bit, 35 fps !!! It also does 4k at 10 bit (decent), upto 60p. That's some insane quality, for a sensor on a mobile phone. Unfortunately I am not sure the processor or the codec on that, would be geared to handle something with that bandwidth of data, whether during recording, or otherwise. If someone could hack it, to be able to get 12 bit RAW, from its sensor, at 30 fps, it would be insane. Like an App, on the lines of the 4k Cinema App (that does a reasonably Flat and 200 Mbps video). Since it can do 2k at 120fps and 4k at 60p, I am guessing that Motorola would push for those frame rates by updates, maybe sometime later. This is the Sony literature on the sensor: http://www.sony.net/Products/SC-HP/IS/sensor2/img/products/IMX377CQT_ProductSummary_v1.5_20150414.pdf

I didn't sign in when all this crap was happening. I panicked, like someone was going to steal my password. Hehehe. The appoval of new posts is a great idea. Btw: I suspect it is someone we all know. Dunno who precisely, but I just have a gut feeling.

The video quality has improved tremendously. I would love to see a face-off between this and the 200Mbps Samsung S6 monster.

Dude you disappeared. I am sure everyone would love a face-off between the S6/ S6 Edge/ Note 5 etc and the iPhone 6 Plus with whatever app is best for it. I would put my money on the S6. Btw, how well would this run on the Moto X Pure or Style?

hahaha. Zacuto were extremely shocked by all the brickbats from the Companies, the DoPs and the participants, when online users started randomly quoting single sentences and taking random figures frlm their findings. It got to the point that they couldn't take it anymore, and they cancelled any further tests/ shootouts. With Hacked Canon and Nikon, Zacuto wohld be digging a 100 metre grave for themselves, which they might never be able to come out of. Hehehe ;-)

I think it's only fair to let Zacuto do another of their famous Shootout Videos, where they compare cameras on almost all technical parameters. They could throw in a few mobile cameras too, especially those with the installed apps for improving bitrate. And, have a few blind audience tests ... Those were fun and controversial ...

Wow. Pretty neat.

I guess you could pick up almost every literally work outside the copyright protection period, whether songs or poems, or anything else. This is a list which isn't too exhaustive: http://publicdomainday.org/node/44/

What is ofs? Also how do you plan to use tbe poems?

IF the GH5 is out sometime in the last quarter of 2016 (or later), I would wish for: 1. Digital Stabilization like that on the Moto X Play/ Style. Despite not having Optical Image Stabilization it does a much better job than mobile phones that do. So I am guessing, it is perfectly doable with video on DSLRs and DSLMs. I am guessing that internal stabilisation especially at 4k and on larger sensors may be an issue, with sensor shift technology, regarding heat. 2. Better low light and better dynamic range. Panasonic have handled heating issues extremely well, and I don't believe anyone has heard of their cameras overheating. But I guess a lot of people feels their lowlight and dynamic range, especially for video could get better. 3. I wonder if they can have a larger than M4/3rd sensor inside that body (APSC or Full Frame), while maintaining the mount size. Much like the Metabones trick, but the other way around. It may help with low light. 4. That YAGH thing needs some serious makeover. They should add a recorder, preamps, XLRs and a battery in that unit. And reduce the bulk and bad looks of that thing. Something not much larger than the JuicedLink units. I guess most other things are pretty neat about Panasonic.

Maybe we should take a poll: 1. Is the VLog easy to nail regarding exposure? 2. Does it has noticeably more noise, and one that is not organic? 3. Should Panasonic have tested it before release? 4. What about all the Beta Testers who used it (CameraStoreTV, Driftwood, etc etc)? Were they Unaware of it, since Mat from NewsShooter actually said the highlights on the Panasonic DVX200 were pretty much clipped. Since they have similar Log Profiles I am guessing they have similar clipping issues. Though macro blocking seems more prominent on the gh4.

I seem to be a little lost. Maybe it was the D5300 instead of the D5500, or I am unable to find the video. Anyway, please check this video first. I will try and find the D5500 video too: http://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=Nikon+D5300+extreme+low+light+video+test&view=detail&mid=9040F02122116092FAE19040F02122116092FAE1&FORM=VRRTAP

I hope Panasonic tweaks the VLog some more to reduce the noise among other things.

The Nikon D550 looks like a great camera, with a Flat profile for video and great low light too. But, for video it has a strange color shift between various ISOs. From a red to a yelow tint, vacillating between various ISO settings.

I am glad to be of help. Also, I personally don't mind making a donation towards the VLog if I pick up a GH4. Do you also feel, that they should let the VLog trickle down to the other Panasonic Cameras (FZ1000, LX100, G7 and GX8) ?

Thanks for posting this. The JVC has quite a lot of features. I am very curious to see how the new Log profile is in more videos. NewsShooter's Matt Allard seems to prefer it over Sony's and Panasonic's Log ("The J-Log1 gamma is quite flat, but it has more colour information in it than say S-Log or S-Log2. I have recently been testing out the Panasonic DVX-200 and V-Log L. Comparing the two, they both seem to offer similar levels of dynamic range, but I do prefer the way the JVC handles the highlights."). Would love to see some good image testing with the new Log Profile.

Wow. I love the whole spirit on EOSHD. People are generally honest and sincere. And mostly very polite. A rarity in online forums nowadays. We are a Rare Species.

hahaha. I don't know why people read something else into posts. I never said it is stealing, because the glitch is caused by Panasonic. I only said morally. Law and morality don't always go hand in hand. More than anything else, this news made me laugh like crazy. Panasonic took so long to come up with pricing and selling the GH4 Vlog, and then, a little glitch has made it all free. Maybe if they target selling another few thousand GH4s, they can easily recover the cost. Or even better, release it for Free on the FZ100, the LX100, the G7, and the GX8 too, and let people go out to buy all those cameras, with the new Vlog. IMHO it sounds like an interesting marketing idea.

hahaha. Panasonic just lost about 1$ Million ($99 x 10000 GH4 Cameras approx). I think, they should be broad shouldered about it, and let it go. A few people were cribbing about the $99 price tag for VLog. Maybe someone heard their prayers. hehehe

I am a lawyer (among other things). You discovered a glitch and did Not hack or break into the security. Having said that, since the VLog patch is a Paid patch, and you have gotten it for free, ideally atleast on moral grounds you should not discuss this any further. Please delete this thread.

Wow, some serious weight throwing around here. Is that a French Bulldog or an Old English Mastiff? Also, apparently there appear to forum members who would prefer carrying an IMAX sized (and similar weight) camera for commercials and DNG work. Maybe they should make an Ununseptium version of Cameras for people who like to use the cameras as dumbells in between Shots.

I had read that the Ursa Mini is a rather heavy and not very well balanced little camera. Does anyone know how much it weighs?
