Stu Mannion Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I have to say that while the GH3's image is very clean and sharp the low-light grain and highlight handling is clearly not up to 5D standards. Not unless there's some unseen colour profile that can pull more latitude out of it. Specs aren't everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beneos Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 RE: Louvre - in defense of the camera, I saw the soft focus as an operator issue. There are some incredibly sharp clips in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigelbb Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Have they fixed the stupid way that you adjust aperture/shutter? On the GH2 the adjustment is on the same wheel & you press to toggle between shutter & aperture (M43 electronic lenses only of course). This is the biggest single ergonomics issue that I have with the GH2 as it's so easy to accidentally adjust shutter speed when changing aperture. It looks like the GH3 is a bit larger than the GH2 which always feels like a fiddly little toy in my admittedly large hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgharding Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 [quote name='QuickHitRecord' timestamp='1348078766' post='18610'] I would love to see it. I read something about a Hasselblad-Sony partnership that would result in Hasselblad's first(?) full frame camera. I don't know why Sony would do this considering that it could challenge their A99, but the schematics are out there. [/quote] I reckon the pricing will stop it being a challenge to the A99, it'll be at least six or seven thousand for any Hasselblad full frame. Think of how much the Lunar is, and it's basically an NEX7 The medium format backs could probably add video if they wanted, like the crazy Phase One IQ series. The IQ180 is 80 megapixels...

People go on and on about the new panasonic zoom lenses and how good they are, but for true nit picking of video quality wouldnt it be better to atleast be making proper judgement of footage shot with atleast a set of cp2's on there via pl adaptor?
