Can you post an example? I don't see how this can even touch lens IS. From the sound of it, the app takes pictures and records data from accelerometer at the same time, then uses that data to stabilise the footage in post. But the way lens IS works, there are elements working in real time that counterbalance any shake. The accelerometer in the phone may be able to record the direction it is facing, but it cant counterbalance jittery hands. Unless you can prove me wrong with some footage?

I would like to see some more real world tests from them because from other tests that Ive seen, the GH3 (not even the 4) has very comparable DR to the 5d Mkiii.

Come With Me (We Are One) - an EOSHD music video for DJ Paul Van Dyk
Inazuma replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
I agree. I found it really bizarre seeing those images with high tempo music after having first watched it with lovely french stuff. However it is very good to have been picked by a big record label :) -
Why the Olympus OM-D E-M1 is better than expected for video (Review)
Inazuma replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
Sorry to resurrect an old thread but.. Does this advice apply to all footage shot at 24mbps and below? And do you mean to convert the footage to ProRes proxy before importing to Premiere? Or to just create a sequence using ProRes (or Dnxhd in my case) settings? And why would this make a difference anyway? -
Here's another great example of the what the Olympus can do I don't know about you, but if I were to shoot something like that, especially for minutes at a time, the end result would be really quite shaky! I also quite like the colour rendition (when the camera stops changing WB). The dynamic range is not bad either; he could have underexposed it a bit to keep some highlight detail. But I still have a problem with the way it handles fine details (cotton jackets, hair, leaves, etc)... Maybe the supposed (but still somewhat doubtful) new firmware will fix this?

If anyone's interested, I'm now selling two vintage lenses. Light-weight primes with metal construction. Konica Hexanon AR 40mm f1.8 Vivitar 28mm f2 MC Picture of the lenses here: http://imgur.com/a/8qIgc#0 The Vivitar was used to make this:

It's possible that part of Nikon's deal with Sony means that they can't add certain video features to their cameras. I remember reading somewhere that Olympus wasn't able to add focus peaking in to their cameras for a while because of such a contract. And even now, Olympus' focus peaking is a really strange implementation. Remember also that the GH3 uses a Sony sensor. Maybe Sony disallows focus peaking to be used on any cameras that use their sensor except their own?

Question about shallow depth of field and long lenses

The GH4 rolling shutter test is done in 4k, which is much worse than it is at 1080p. Also that a5100 images looks pretty soft. The "colorchecker" text is hard to read even though it's quite a big font. However the dynamic range they claim is most excellent, if true.
-
well to be fair, you can't really pan fast or walk with it as it ends up looking like you used warp stabiliser in post. At least from my experience with the EP5 last year.
-
I emailed 43rumors asking "do any of the em1 rumors indicate the video image detail will improve?" and they said yes. I asked when the firmware will be announced and he said within 10 days. Even though I love the image I get from the GH3 and I love the handling, I would probably give it up for the 5-axis and better viewfinder if the EM1's video detail is improved.
-
People are spreading rumors about 4k video and high fps shooting when Olympus doesnt even have a decent readout for video yet. Why even entertain these rumors? The Nikon camera with 4k, 120fps 1080p, switchable OLED was ridiculous enough.
-
Ep5 could be used for those type of shots you see in movies sometimes where the character is talking into a tablet of some kind. They need it stable but bad quality.
-
Those are probably from the two h264 cameras; gh4 and canon 1dc. From my experience, that type of noise and banding occurs when you try to use a LUT that tries to push more data around than is present
-
No, I mean a magnifier for the actual viewfinder itself. eg
-
Hi, There are after-market viewfinder magnifiers for almost all camera brands except for Panasonic. I wonder has anyone managed to modify one of these pieces for use with the GH3?

I have a normal ATX setup. With core i7 @ 3.9ghz, GTX 680, and recently upgraded to 16gb ram. I used to think 3D rendering required a lot of performance, but it seems video encoding is even more demanding! You can't avoid fans if you want a decent setup.
-
Rule of thumb is what ever FPS youre shooting at, set the shutter speed to double. So if shooting at 24 or 25 fps, set the shutter to 1/50th.

Panasonic GH4 user films, tests, reviews and opinions
Inazuma replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
I think you're making the right decision and Im sure a lot of people would agree too. My only other suggestions would be to go with Nikon glass, as they tend to be adaptable to almost any mount. -

Inazuma replied to Andrew Reid's topic in Cameras
The answer to your questions depends entirely on your aesthetic preferences and uses of your equipment. For example, I use my gear for planned shoots and so have a rig and several constant aperture Nikon-mount zoom lenses. I really believe people should buy what they need.. not what will sell better in future. -
4k? 120fps 1080? Optional OLED viewfinder? You're out of your mind!
