  1. The difference is in the ability of the lens drive, not the body. The older lenses will still have dual IS mk1. Why on earth would you think otherwise? http://shop.panasonic.com/dual-is
  2. Actually I wasn't referring to her being in every shot (and making every shot consequently that much better) but simply that Bondini regarding "Neumann Films" as just a man is actually the sexist part, not Panasonic. It jumps on the SJW train and disrespects both the quality of work involved in all the promos, and the actual people involved (like M)
  3. Thanks for being sexist and ignoring Marika.
  4. Temp mixed with water content of the air. Condensation is more a problem when going from a cold environment to a warm one. The machine is cold and being introduced to warm moisture filled air (because inside houses people breath) creates the condensation. I tend to leave the camera in the bag when going inside and leaving it in there for a little while so it warms up slower.

    I was wondering why they had all the lights off. Evidently a low light show off. Funny they leave the Sony headphones obviously on the table in front of them. Ah, his coming film about ICE is also GH5.

    IBIS by itself is 5 axis, so I hope you mean dual IS (which the later discussion seems to be about). Other tests: in addition to the focus one, a test to see if you can punch in with manual focus while recording - or is that just a feature check? On board flash and if so can one bounce it upwards? How fast is wifi app connection/start up? Can you program slow focus pulls? Can you record 4k video starting in a photo dial mode (without turning photo mode on) (GH4 has to be in video or custom)
  7. Final one looks (to me) like back to crushing blacks and blowing highlights again?
  8. Ahh ok. Once I read it through instead of trying to follow it like a step by step list it all made sense by the end. (The explanation is after the settings). Looking good!
  9. Ah ha. Worked out what you mean by the picture profile settings. Now onto understanding the white balance bit.
  10. Finding it a bit hard going applying the instructions to the new rx100. Totally new to picture profile programming vs custom memories.
  11. I wasn't recording that amount of time. Each run through was about 4 min then we'd muck about for a bit. I left it on in between takes though. Overall we were all quite surprised and pleased that it coped so well. Pretty new battery of course.
  12. I shot clips for a couple of hours. Camera on all that time. Half to two thirds still left on the battery.
  13. Well that's interesting. Not 100% sure on that skin colour? but pretty impressive overall. What an easy one step grade! What to set idynamic and iresolution to Andrew? I had idyn off and ires standard here. Temp -15, Exp +0.4, Shadows 31.9. GH4

    I have more interesting dreams than a camera even on my off days. Now if only you could make them come true.
  15. The GH4 AF is very fast, yes. You are incorrect on both the effect of the crop difference and brightness of the GX85 shots. You're on the wrong track with the "clips the highlights", I set levels on the basis of highlight limit - not general scene exposure.
  16. Cinegain was incorrect. The 12-35 has always had the best IS of all the pany lenses. No doubt somewhere in the back of his mind he was thinking of the 35-100 on the jitter issue.
  17. What do you mean from raw? It's screenshot of video test. I don't think the GX85 "clips" more than the GH4 but it does do a roll off which makes it look as if it does, even when it isn't. The other point I might make is the two cameras were set up the same (with exception of idynamic mistake) for the purpose of comparing stabilisation. The problem of the highlights would need a slightly different approach as the GX85 is noticeably brighter - it crops much less and gets more light. So to bring the overall brightness of the images closer something else would have to change, like running GH4 at 400 iso and the GX85 at 200 or 300 (don't know if you can do that). I prefer the GH4 highlight rolloff but can't beat the better low light and ibis of gx85.
  18. I don't have the original footage. The colour is better on GX85. As for the range, it's hard to tell really, apart from saying I prefer the highlight treatment on GH4. There's some comparison shots here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TlNsj-CSaE where you can see the GH4 sky is darker with more contrast showing.
  19. I only shot the video, the violinist did the great edit considering it was on Pinnacle and crashed a lot. I think it was corrected colour a tad in post, yes. I set it up to not clip highlights so it could have probably done with a lift overall into the middle. Yeah basically a totally dark room with three lights (background near cross, foot, roof spot. Thanks! Fairy lights are great! The thing that struck me was the IBIS while using my favourite 25mm. My GH4 sat unused.
  20. My fault on the white balance there, also this is natural setting as you know gx85 does not have cineD. Personally I like it as that's what the skin actually looks like under orange lamps (flame). Also set the highlights to spot clip as I didn't want the editor to have to colour grade too much on their $50 software. The GX85 does highlight clip easier than the GH4. Apart from the fairy lights the only lights here are a tungsten spot from the roof and a fill panel on the floor, ie. a very high dr situation. Thanks for the feedback!
  21. and external mic input if you like putting a fluffy shotty on the top. Shot this on GX85, 25mm 1.4, and 42.5 1.7

    Better for me than drinking Mountain Dew, but I have a sneaking suspicion not cheaper.

    Don't know about Andrew, but I'm very partial to drinking 4992 glasses of water over 3744 days. Hmm, that will take me several new years resolutions...
