Stab Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Hey everyone, I'm very stoked about the GH5 and will shoot a lot in 4k 50 fps! The question is, which external monitor will accept this signal as input? I'm using a cheap Seetec monitor at the moment with the GH3, but I don't think it is able to handle a 4k 50 fps feed. I've seen some affordable newer monitors which accept a 4K signal, but only 30 fps at most. Anyone knows anyhing about this? Or could recommend some fairly priced monitors? jonpais 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldolega Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 If you're just monitoring, not recording, you could just turn on the HDMI downscaling. Then you'll have a 1080p60 signal, which most monitors should accept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majoraxis Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 The Neway CK1014S should do 4K 60p with a resolution of 3840x2160 with a 10.1" IPS screen. There is s thread about it at PV here: http://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/15683/neway-ck1014s-10-3840x2160-ips-hdmi-2.0-and-3g-sdi-monitor/p1 Inazuma 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonpais Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Should you buy the GH5? Shot with the GX85 and Sigma 30mm f/1.4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ki Rin Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 the AF doesn't seem to perform very well in that video. Or maybe that lens cant focus that close? that would be a bummer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's face it: grown-ups don't freak out about gadgetry. This lengthy video, unrehearsed, practically un-edited, off-the-cuff reality TV, better shows the capabilities of a camera than those thoroughly picked snippets we see elsewhere. My impression: nothing to write home about regarding image quality, but apparently a no-nonsense workhorse. jonpais 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand +1 Good reading between the lines!...with each new camera release and posted clips, the comments just keep getting more ridiculous....This guy took the camera from his friend...climbed in his van, turned the camera on and started driving...WTF....what is anybody commenting negatively on the GH5 based on this clip expecting?

Expand Exactly Jonpais!!...and I like the fact that Brother is out there excited and playing with the GH5 for a night (he actually mentions that it's all manual focus BTW!)...but he's out there shooting!....sleeping in he's van in the cold to catch beauty light before sunrise...like the energy and enthusiasm more than the armchair pixel peeping...my comment on the GH5 would simply be, if this is your budget and you want a reliable, work anytime you need it on set, or a wedding or whatever, and ease of operation camera, this camera is amazing...and there are more trolls for the GH series cameras than any other cams, so Panny must be doing something right!...as for the exhausting DR discussion, buy some lights and learn to use them, or another camera and go fumbling around in the dark! jonpais 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Members Mattias Burling Posted February 2, 2017 Super Members Share Posted February 2, 2017 Im not sure I understand all the hate towards that video. Thought it was fine for what it is.
