kidzrevil Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Im considering in selling my whole kit for a gh5 now that I’ve upgraded my computer. Im starting to prefer the image and usability of my G85 over my sony a6500. Pana bodies are so easy to work with & reliable I grab a pana body for paid shoots and sony for my personal projects. I may just sell my g85 only and upgrade to a gh5 and use my sony as a b cam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercer Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 @kidzrevil I think you are definitely one of the people that could benefit from the extra 2 bits of color. So it may not be a bad idea at all. I also have a feeling, according to @Neumann Films recent teaser post, that the GH5 may be getting something more... if it’s Raw video... then I may have to buy one too. And if you go on eBay, Samy’s Camera, in LA, has some great prices on New Open Box models. By benefit, I mean utilize. kidzrevil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonpais Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Glenn - if it got RAW, would you buy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think I would sell my 5D3 for it, but I may sell almost every lens and equipment I don’t really use for Raw and IBIS. But I am betting it is going to be ProRes or something else... perhaps a smaller crop if that’s possible with that sensor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidzrevil Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 @mercer if this thing gets raw its going to put it ahead of EVERYTHING ! I just may upgrade if I get a buyer for my g85 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercer Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I guess it could also be some kind of straight 6K without Anamorphic mode or however that works. If we want to really speculate, the easiest way is to find out what the next big thing is on Panasonic televisions? Or who knows... maybe with all of the rumors of the soon to be announced FF mirrorless cameras by Canon and Nikon, that Panasonic has decided to release its own APS-C or FF mirrorless.

buggz Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 For me, something "simple", like outputting a signal via HDMI during internal recording 6k anamorphic mode would be great, I NEED a bigger screen for my tired old eyes... jonpais 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have a good point there, Glenn. ? As an aside, I realize some cynics (and I’m not saying you’re one of them!), accuse Sony or Panasonic of adding ‘useless’ features like 4K to their cameras only in order to be able to sell TV sets, but as everyone knows by now, the reason our cameras have been shackled to rec 709 is precisely because of guidelines drawn up for 30 year-old display technology. And a full frame Panasonic would be awesome. Where can I preorder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercer Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Is all-i h2.65 possible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neumann Films Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I honestly don't know if RAW is being added to the GH5 or not. It would be great if it was though! Different cameras do different things. Sony cameras have the low light capability and that is one of their main calling cards. The GH5 is more "all around" in my opinion. Its a beast!

Vesku Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 " ...I shooted thousands of videos.... 5 hours ago, Orangenz said: Sure... Only in one hiking trip in Norway in September I shooted 883 4k60P video clips. Do you want a list of thumbnails? The quality of those GH5 videos is stunning.

Vesku Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 4k 60P 10bit 420 with HEVC would be nice and maybe possible too. All current 4k modes with HEVC would be useful and handy. Also 6k video with 16:9 ratio is in my hope list. I think that RAW video is not possible with current SD cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seku Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 And here i am ... literally half an hour away from getting a reserved GH5 ... I better cancel and wait a bit longer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonpais Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I'm going to wait another year till they fix all the problems with the GH5.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seku Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 of course. But I better wait to see what this beast is about, so i can make an informed decision to get the GH5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would've not buy it. 1-If I was planning to mainly shoot in low light situation. 2-if I needed to relay on auto focus most of the time.
