Oliver Daniel Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that the GH5 will be getting a firmware update later in the year for 4k 60p 10bit? Is this true or false? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this true or false? I believe it's false... the high bitrate 1080p at 60p will be 10 bit, but I think the 4K 60p will remain 8 bit.

I think it's Bloom who said it in his blog. I'm really enjoying the A6500 at the moment, and even chose it ahead of my FS5 for a shoot this week. The 4K image is pretty special sauce. Better than the FS5's internal 4K. The IBIS is super useful. The autofocus is great, awesome for a gimbal. Just wish it had 4k60p. This peaks my interest in the GH5 - as I expect the experience to be similar, and better in some aspects. Its one of them though. I'm totally covered with my Sony's. No colour issues. Got past that. I'll keep watch of the GH5 but new cameras and gizmos are way, way down my priority list. Making stuff is No.1 mercer and jonpais 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as long as you don't have a lot of blue sky in your shots, I haven't noticed any artifacts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emmanuel Pampuri is so kind to share the ooc on vimeo. "If you want to test to grade the V-log footage you can DL it from my vimeo https://vimeo.com/204662860" The pale grade of the skin is for a reason. Reminds me of the first GH4 Vlog footage Nick Driftwood shared a couple of years back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty known that sLog3 does not play well with 8 bit, but in certain shots... it is amazing. slog2 has similar problems on occasion but again I feel the pros outweigh the cons in most instances...

webrunner5 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I have used one several times, never owned one, but yeah I stayed away form sLog3. The owner said it just fell apart to easy, and I have seen plenty of examples, so I see your concern. "A bridge too far" as they say.

bunk Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Auto white balans is at fault for the skin going from yellow to pink in a couple of frames (from what I read in the comments, my french is not that good). ….But is it also the cause of a terrible (here slightly exaggerated by adding too much saturation) skin disease? Doesn't look to good to me. And it's not just skin that is plagued by macro blocking. Saw it in the Neumann footage as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunk Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 What 'liberties' did Neumann or Pampuri take to create macro blocking? All they did was share ungraded ooc footage. mercer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stab Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I have an important question. Where are these people who make testvideo's getting their GH5's from? Did Panasonic contact them? Did they contact Panasonic? I have a wedding coming up soon and would love to use it but I guess that's not going to happen. And did they 'borrow' a pre-production model or simply received one? How does that even work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunk Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 1 hour ago, Ken Ross said: I was under the impression you were talking about graded footage. I was and am. But grading, any grading, is not why macroblocking turns up. With some effort you can quantize colors but that's not macro blocking. Two more samples from Neumann. Once you see it you can not unsee it. Could be that there is a bug with AWB. Maybe someone can test it out. If so then Panasonic should fix it pronto as it's there since Vlog was released for the GH4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimitris Stasinos Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I don't get it... What has white balance to do with macroblocking? All I am seeing in those extreme gradings above is color banding, which is normal after such a push in post. Macroblocking is a compression artifact... webrunner5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I am seeing in those extreme gradings above is color banding, which is normal after such a push in post. Macroblocking is a compression artifact... Color banding and macroblocking are related. "encoding blocks" are small clusters of the same color, so for example the 8bit banding of the sky can get exaggerated with the macroblocks of compressed bands in the sky. If WB is far off then color tonalities will be off and that can also create banding & macro blocks, but in this case WB was correct. In the specific example the bunk posted (4th picture) there is a lot of macroblocking on the skin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have used the term 'YUV chroma smearing' ...it's been a while. Here are two link where Lpowell explains about it. http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showthread.php?340370-Exposing-V-LOG-L&p=1986578386&viewfull=1#post1986578386 http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showthread.php?340370-Exposing-V-LOG-L&p=1986578534&viewfull=1#post1986578534 Dimitris Stasinos and Don Kotlos 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
