GH4 8bit internal vs 10bit with Video Assist

The resolution on YouTube says "1080p60" so I suspect this is not down-converted 4K footage. YouTube compression also makes real pixel peeping impossible, but it's interesting nonetheless. Noise is certainly better looking and colours are clearly punchier.

Zacuto aren't going to make a 5" loupe for this thing are they? That would be silly. Wouldn't it?

Also this one from Mr CheesyCam (not settings or grade noted):

 

And another random one from Vimeo (again no settings noted):

Can't tell a lot from these two but the image looks "fuller" to my eye than internal footage. The golf course video showed some nasty artefacts in the shadows at times, but by the look of it I'd guess he didn't upload a very big file so hard to say what's causing it.

I thought about the VA and matching it up a BMMCC, but the lack of monitoring functionality had me worried. On the other hand there's the GH4 and V-LOG L is an interesting tool, but it appeared to really benefit from external recording. With Blackmagic addressing the issues people had with the VA, by releasing firmware, actually before it's readily availlable everywhere, they may have made it quite interesting again. Especially if they'd iron out even more of the wrinkles with newer updates. Would love to see more of it too.
