I really feel fleeced by Panasonic on this. To release this so soon after the GH6 - why was this new PDAF added to the GH6?? Come onnnnn

Good to know. I'll try to delete it and redownload it. No I was just using regular photo mode. Davinci can for sure handle DNGs, I wish they would update to handle RW2 files though ..

Yessir it said I was using the latest version. Going to uninstall and try again. What do you use? I tried several old versions to no avail. What do you use? This method?

What is everyone's workflow with RAW RW2 pictures? With my GH5 I could send them through the Adobe converter and change them to DNGs so Davinci Resolve could read them, but now for some reason, the RW2 files out of the GH6 don't work in my Adobe DNG converter? I don't see what changed? It should still be a RW2 file so I don't understand why it's not working anymore. Haven't been able to find a work around yet. Thoughts?

Firmware update 2.2 coming 9/27 that holds the record to SSD upgrade :D really looking forward to that. I do hope that they'll eventually make me choose between recording to an SSD or getting the Blackmagic monitor and utilizing BRAW like the GH5s...

Wouldn't mind sharing that would you? I would happily pay for it. I'd like to mess around with it. It's very nice!

I was going to say exactly this. It's subtle, but the GH6 looks softer. Great grade btw. Similar to the GHAlex workflow with the nice highlight rolloff. FWIW his sample footage of the GH6 vs Alexa were indistinguishable to me. Like you, he's still doing some tests but so far he told me this is his favorite camera ever by far.

No, it should be fine to buy the same size VND. Typical practice is to buy a filter that fits your biggest lens, that way you can use step up rings on your smaller lens

GHAlex just did an update/release for the GH6. So excited to mess around with this. He doesn't have any shot of it up yet, but I bet they will be amazing https://www.emotivecolor.com/gallery

I still wonder (and wouldn't be surprised) if we get BRAW to the Black magic recorder as the GH5s has it. I really hope so. Since I use a PC and Davinci this would be amazing

To me, alot of these "grievances" are just talking points of preference. Yes, MFT doesn't have the same "bokeh" as full frame. But I've never needed or wanted more background blur with my line of Oly 1.2s....there's no autofocus. Ok well maybe this isn't for all the Youtubers. Yes it's annoying they didn't address that issue, but I rarely wish I had AF when I'm manually focus pulling. Roger Deakins doesn't use AF so I'm good. Low light for the GH6 is excellent, especially with fast glass. The GH5s is amazing with the 1.2s, so the GH6 will be even better, I can't wait. My one of few complaints is that they took away the dual SD card slots for backup recording. Why not have 2 CFast card slodlys with 2 SD card slots inside? Now I'd I want to back up record I have to pony up for the CFast. I've pretty much decided I'm going to wait for the SSD card update,as those are much more cost effective for storage. Other hope/expectation is that either ProRes RAW and/or BRAW externally with come via update. That would be awesome. There are so many positive upgrades for this, I'm super excited. I spot with Alex Mack who makes the GHAlex Lut...he's super pumped about this camera and had already preordered one. He's got his files prepped to have a GH6Alex update as soon as it's out. Looking forward to utilizing they with Prores and full Vlog.

The fact that a future update is coming that let's you record to an SSD out of the usb-c port is HUGE for me. I was really hoping for that. I'm also wondering if BRAW will end up being available,since they have those updated for the GH5s and the S line (even those it's to the BM Recorder). I don't really care about Prores that much being on a PC I thought these were interesting to see as well, pretty impressive

Here you go! Media Division got early access, watching now https://youtu.be/jUd_I8Z3Iqw

Well? anyone catch the Lumix live stream this morning? - GH5 ii (meh, some updates to the GH5 basically) - GH6: didn't reveal much but dangled enough for me! Confirmed release for this year, 4k 120 4:2:2 internal 10bit as well as 5.7k 60p! Also with the announcement of the Pro Res Raw via Ninja V for the GH5s, can only assume something similar or even better will be offered on the GH6. Personally I'm glad they didn't try to chase the "K's" too much and go for 8k. I think 5.7k will be a perfect resolution for low light performance as well as reframing if you want. I like what I hear so far! All new sensor and new neural engine.
