Would You Perhaps Be Interested In A Different GX80/85 Colour Profile???

Leiny · January 7, 2021

I'd like to share this finding - as that of GX85 & ZS100, my newly acquired ZS200 internal also has Cinelike-D which can be activated via "DEPLOY CINELIKE D AND V 1" hack. Very nice!

Did not tried in my GX9, but this could be interesting: a guy in Personal View forum made this post:

"Hey guys,

not sure if this was known yet, but I thought this might be useful for some people.

I found a way to enable recording video to a *.mov file format using higher bitrates on my Lumix GX9. Specifically recording 1080p (up to 60p) in either 50 Mb/s, 100 Mb/s (or even 200 Mb/s, which is not very useful though since the GX9's UHS-I SD interface only supports write speeds up to 104 Mb/s).

The method I used is very similar to the Cine-D trick for the GX80/GX85 back then. It shouldn't break your camera since it is only accessing hidden settings implemented in the camera anyway.

I did not compare the footage against the standard MP4 4k or 1080p modes provided by the GX9. In theory this should enable up to 4x higher bitrates when shooting 1080p, which I could confirm after analysing some test footage. The documented options from Panasonic only include 1080p recording up to 28 Mb/s.

Here is a html tool that you might use to try it yourselves. https://pastebin.com/mHG1T5Ph Just copy the code into a *.html file and open it using any browser.

I posted this on reddit already, but I thought its maybe better put here 🙂 Enjoy."

Hi

i apply this to my GH5 to retrieve all the info from the camera

This is what i got and is very interesting that this camera still have some hidden feature for further update to come if they do it one day. My question to this forum is how can we change the ENABLE from NO to YES. i want to unlock Vlog via HTML and to Unlock the 6K recording feature in normal mode and not in Anamorphic mode that is already available in the the cam since the update.

if some one can help i will be glad to test it.

here is what it came out:

turn on 6k photo and select aspect ratio 3: 2, start / stop mode.

When cropping to 16: 9, you get 5k 30p
how did you get the list of hidden modes? I would like to do it with my G9 too

Hi all,

Please send me a small corrupted mov file (full hd 60/50p 100/50mbps) from the following cameras: g85, gx85, g90, gx8. I want to try and repair them.

Hi, we have repaired it successfully long time ago, resulting no real increase of bitrate. So we abandoned the investigations.

I have repaired the MOV-file from my G7 too and unfortunately it has 10mbit bitrate only for all MOV options. For some reason my camera freezes with settings mov_24_50mbps and mov_24_100mbps

PannySVHS · December 23, 2021

Darn it @Grimor. Having 100mbit HD on the GX85 would have been.. Well, would have been still the same HD which lacks the natural beauty one gets with HD from a G6 or G7. GX85 HD looks a bit underwhelming and brittle compared to those two. GX9 on the other hand might be a winner. Any experiences with the 100mbit and 200mbit HD from the GX9?

I don't have gx9 to test, but its really easy and safe to test. You will know that you are in a stealth mode when the screen does not show the recording mode and you generate those corrupted movs.

PannySVHS · December 26, 2021

@Grimor i don´t have a gx9 myself. I downloaded hd files with 100 or 200mbit rate from a link in this thread. They worked. Btw 200mbit would mean AllI Intra flavor of Pannys codec!

I have a GX9 but the 4K mode is disapointing to say the least. I can live with the 1.25x cropping, however because of this crop, the noise is everywhere, even at ISO 200. It could be awesome if it was possible to remove the crop in 4K. This little camera is almost perfect otherwise for daily use , pocketable with small lenses, good IBIS, nice colors etc.

PannySVHS · December 27, 2021

@Beritar Then you might like the 200mbit hack for HD on the G9. You can find it in this thread and let us know about your findings.:) I like the 4k on my GX85. I imagine the GX9 to be about the same. It crops in more than the GX85 does because of having 4MP more in resolution. But it also is the newer sensor from the GX8 and GH5. I imagine the GX9 to be the perfect compact HD camera with its new 100 and 200mbit modes, coming from the hack.

I only use 4K because I watch my videos on a big TV. I downloaded some clips with 20 and 100mbits in 1080P but I don't see a major improvement. I also compared some of my old 4K videos with my GH4 and the GX9 is really worse noise wise. I think it's a pretty bad idea from Panasonic to use such a crop on a 20MP M43 sensor.

PannySVHS · December 29, 2021

Improvement would have to be seen when heavily graded. The thin AVCHD codec with its low bit rate should show so much mare artefacts than ALL Intra. Also in movements more mushiness due to compression.

David53 · September 28, 2022

Hi,

Can this be used on the LX 10 by any chance ?

you should check on my article, avchd is actually a more compressed codec rendering in higher quality. I tried out avchd in hd and it was to my eye by far the best quality, especially in 1080 60p

It's also worth pointing out that the IQ that you get from a camera depends on:

the codec
the bitrate
the performance of the camera
the processing the camera does prior to compression
the quality of the processing algorithm in the camera

The C100 downscaled from 4K sensor to a 24Mbps file that was easily better than the 100Mbps 4K files from many cheap cameras. Sadly, in this subject, everything matters.

PannySVHS · October 21, 2022

4K on the GX85 slamdunks any HD AVCHD flavour on it, especially the brittle HD 60p. Also, the 24 to 30p HD on the GX85 is by far not as nice as on the G6 and G7, which both have a very smooth but high resolving HD. GX85 HD is brittle by comparison. What article btw?:)

You are mostly right, but also partially wrong. Of course 4k is best. But AVCHD offers by far the best 60P on the gx80, it's not even close. AVCHD is also a much more highly compressed codec compared to h264 so it's the best codec for full hd on the gx80 as well. If you wanna keep stuff simple, I recommend shooting Full HD AVCHD with the gx80 on anything not job related. I owned this camera for 5 years and squeezed out every bit of quality u can get out of the camera.
Have you actually used the AVCHD 60p? It slams the h264 60p by lenghts....
