From the quote Quote OK, so I've done a test of Cine-D, Like709 with knee adjusted to give maximum dynamic range, and V-Log. zmarty 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would like to see skin off different types of interior lights, wide and cu, and also mixed lights. Interesting, GH5 seems to have a similar magenta tint that I see in GH4 stuff often.

jase Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 it is quite awesome, that the losless tele converter now also works in 4K (in contrast to the GX80, sadly), so that users get a 1.4x crop which is nearly the same as having two focal lengths with just one lens. This together with the Summilux 12 as praised by @jonpais would make it quite awesome... Must resist. jonpais 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKED-M Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Hello, I would need you help: I tried today to get the ext. Telephoto to work in photo and video mode. Page 53 of the handbook. I followed all the steps and have assigned the function button to zoom, but whatever I do, it stays greyed out. I have no problem activating it in photo and video mode on the GH4 but the GH5 seems to need other settings. Can anybody help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Convince Panasonic to make it variable like Sony does, that way you get a whole range of focal lengths with the one lens or use a fast prime as a zoom (12 1.4 zoom lens anyone?). Wonder if they could do that via firmware? jase 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronChicago Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Technically it's not like like having 2 or 3 lenses. The characteristics of a 12mm zoomed 2x (in camera) is going to look different than using an actual 24mm. You'll get the same FOV but it's going to look different. Think about the scene in Jaws where they do a dolly out - zoom in. That would look entirely different if you were dollying out while digitally scaling the image.

Think about the scene is Jaws where they do a dolly out - zoom in. That would look entirely different if you were dollying out while digitally scaling the image. I have used the Sony variable zoom in my A7s with a few different lenses (including a 24mm 1.4 FD as well as an 85 1.2) for stills and video and in better hands than mine it can be very useful in video I think. It also allows you to use smaller sensor lenses without vignetting sometimes with just a little zoom (1.1x or 1.3x might be enough). That is more useful to me with a FF camera and APSC lenses but I think it would also be nice with some smaller than M4/3 lenses. Of course with the A7s I also have an APSC mode and it works great with that too for even more range. In video, it might be useful for example with macro distance subjects or to "zoom in" on a person or animal (or zombie's) eye or zoom out for a scene or zooming in/out with a product shot.

Ki Rin Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 I'm hoping there are some settings he didn't have right for this test, because the AF performance here is pretty disappointing Also a bit concerned that the camera will not fit correctly on the Zhiyun Crane (he mentioned it a bit earlier in the video). Still usable, but not ideal. zmarty 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's there. But have you ever spotted ghosting in any of the real world low light tests completed so far? I've seen ghosting when freeze framing some footage (the low light V-Log stuff from Emmanuel Pampuri) - but it's not noticeable to me during playback from what I've seen so far. And ghosting is something that really bugs me, having wrestled with it extensively on the XC10. Even in this video, which is the classic wave-the-camera-around-to-show-ghosting, you have to kind of concentrate to spot it.
