Lux Shots

Hmm, no I haven't shot 60P on the GH5, but I have on the GH5S ?! Point taken about bitrate, I was quoting DCI 24p numbers.

Have you actually shot with the GH5? If you grade your footage there is a ton to be gained from having 10-bit internal, no subjectiveness about it I believe he's talking about ProRes 4:4:4:4 12-bit. ProRes HQ 4K footage is just under 800 Mbps.

If you really look at two scene shot both ways, the difference is very minimal, and you have to hunt for it. If you can shoot 24p and the client doesn't require ProRes deliverables, I'd skip renting the recorder, as it's than good.

Umm, yes Premiere Pro CC 2018 does! You just have to export in H.265 Rec-2020 and HDR export is available. I just did a test HDR export today and loaded to YouTube. It kinda looks like crap because my monitor is not HDR, nut it was detected as HDR in YouTube properly.

Well, the GH5 and GH5S can shoot 400Mbps ALL-I, so don't dump on them just yet. I posted a link to some footage and most of it is 400Mbps. So take a gander, give it a grade and report back! ?

(This is a repost, as the other post was labeled RAW GH5S footage, which the GH5S clearly can't do real RAW ) Here is some rather uninteresting video I shot at night with varying ISO ranges so users can do test grades. It's way too cold right now on Ohio to do anything artistic! Most of the footage is in V-Log, but some is in HLG. Video 6 was shot in ISO-4000 even though I said ISO-400. Video also contains 150Mbps 10-bit and 400Mbps 10-bit samples. I've noticed the HLG videos can be pushed past IRE 100 in Premiere Pro CC, so that may be a good format to try and create an HDR H.265 export from premiere. https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=1BPHKWVRXA8ynNSQCCBaLuB9hZ4fxgpB8 Happy Grading.

Well, I figured that was a given! I thought everyone knows the GH5S can't output RAW, but I will see if I can rename the post.

No I haven't! I posted a link to some straight out of camera GH5S footage here just for you! It's rather uninteresting footage, but it's outside at night with high ISO in V-Log and HLG so you can see how it grades.

The only reason I don't own one is that I own a GH5S. I've used the GH5 for a number of jobs, I just don't do stills often enough to consider it for my work.

You must have never shot with the guy or GH5 to say something that simple minded. IBIS in the GH5 was a game changer! And 10-bit internal recording brought pro level capture to the masses. Maybe if your just recording for YouTube, you may not appreciate the quality gained, but you'd have to move up to the Sony FS7 in order to get 10-bit 4K. So let's please stop with the no one has HDR 4K sets argument. I've had one for over two years. Maybe your circle doesn't have one, but you always should capture footage in the highest quality your budget can accommodate, and the GH5 has that in spades. Additionally, the OP states interest in photography, but he didn't state what kind. I shot portraits and weddings for years using APS-C gear without complaint. And if he decides to shoot sports, there isn't a full frame camera made that will meet the requirements of that genre. That's where 14 fps and the extra reach of the APS-C Nikon D5 best full frame every time. And guess what? The 6K photo mode best the Nikon D5 in reach and frame rate! Then there is the GH5's focus stacking feature, post focus feature, time lapse feature, direct to web image transfer with the Panasonic Image app. Hey, you know what? It sounds like the GH5 is a fantastic hybrid camera after all! Do I own one? Nope. But I have no problem recommending one for the OP over anything else.
