Cheaper focal reducers will do the job for 150USD

Just. WOW. Thanks Luke! Looking too awesome!

I got my GH4 from amazon.co.uk and it can switch without problems I don't think that pana will block this in GH5.

Patience was waiting for a bigger FW update on the GH4, but it never came :D

They say it's still under consideration. I really don't understand, they give us a camera with a dedicated anamorphic mode, comparing it to ARRI, yet one of the basic function is still under consideration, dafuq?!

BUMP. Bid or buy now for 560!! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sankor-2x-Single-focus-Anamorphic-Cinemascope-Lens-4K-FHD-anamorphot-/112261557579?

Sir, yes sir

They give you 5 years everywhere. The bad thing is, that I ordered from CVP for 1700 GBP (2000euros), Camera center is offering the GH5 for 1900 euros, guess I have to cancel my preorder to save some dosh.

Let's bring up a topic that nobody talked about, are the third party accessories like the Speedbooster, Lens Turbo, Lens Regain work without problem with the GH5? I know, the mount and the foundations did not change, but suspiciously there was nothing about this on the internet. Pre-users, please give us some mind!

Damn. I just placed my order. I truly hope that they learned from that experience...

Finally, a business that ships to whole EU, thanks Andrew!

You can place your preorder in 2 UK stores which are not shipping to any other EU country. Why's that? How should I preorder if I'm outside of the UK?

Too much wine for tonight, thanks! :D

So NO IBIS with the SPEEDBOOSTER?! That. Is. Disappointing.

@Neumann Films God bless you, thanks for the footages, looks freaking awesome. Can you check the VFR bitrates for us please? Also, is there an anamorphic liveview/stretch on the LCD? So how should we upgrade our PCs? I have i7 4core, 16gb ram, 3GB graph card and my computer had hard time to play the footages even on 1/8th of the original quality.

Yep, that would give sense. A TASCAM DR40 mounted to my camera already gives me that, so why should I/we "upgrade"?

MOTION PICTURE So, 400mbit/s will be .h264 http://www.43rumors.com/download-the-official-gh5-leaflet-and-specs-list/

Shooters in europe, where are you placing your preorders?

h265 confirmed! http://www.newsshooter.com/2017/01/04/panasonic-gh5-internal-10-bit-422-4k-recording-at-400-mbps-and-hd-up-to-180fps/

I'm just guessing, so they kept the .h264 for 10bit, right? So we now have the option of LUT previews, for Cinelike D? :D LOL

https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1283257-REG/panasonic_dmc_gh5_mirrorless_micro_four.html What can you tell about AVCHD Ver. 2?

How do you like Griffins new short? Shot in 4K 60p 4:2:0 (?) looks good to me.

I think that they are trying to make GH4R somehow attractive. 100bucks will not kill me, neither you. Remember how much charged SONY in the past for an upgrade like this? Also, having a professional 10bit 4:2:2 image in a consumer PP like Cinelike D, and not having LOG, does not really give me too much sense. Anyway, previous commenters are right that this business concept is disturbing and I hope that'll cause a riot on CES :D

Reviewed.com published an article 12h ago, they took it down, but it's accessable from the cash. So did they just wrote an article from the info that everyone knows or not? http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:http://cameras.reviewed.com/content/panasonic-lumix-gh5-first-impressions-review Some noticeable stuff: No mention of the codec

Nice image, thumbs up, but the edit is really drawing away my attention
