Super Members BTM_Pix Posted July 4, 2017 Super Members Share Posted July 4, 2017 If you still have V2.3 on your GH4 and have access to an Android device and don't mind doing a bit of work to do GX80/85 owners a favour (even if its to put them out of their misery!) can you please post here and I'll give you some instructions.

Super Members BTM_Pix Posted July 4, 2017 Author Super Members Share Posted July 4, 2017 EDIT >>>> OK Scratch that. I've found a different route and, as I suspected, it is game over for VLOG on the GX80/85. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercer Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 VLog on the GX85 would have been a hot mess anyway. Panasonic didn't offer 10bit video, for $2000, on the GH5 out of the kindness of their heart. However I would still love if the LX100 could get CineLikeD or V... but that sounds like an improbability as well, I suppose? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimor Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 What about G80/85 BTM? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Members BTM_Pix Posted July 4, 2017 Author Super Members Share Posted July 4, 2017 What, you think I'm just going to wander into a camera shop in London tomorrow asking for a demo of a G80 and casually try and put VLOG on it? Because of course thats precisely what I'm going to do ! ntblowz, Grimor, Chris Oh and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Members BTM_Pix Posted July 4, 2017 Author Super Members Share Posted July 4, 2017 Fair warning though that I fully expect it to be the same outcome as the GX80. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Members BTM_Pix Posted July 5, 2017 Author Super Members Share Posted July 5, 2017 Unbelievably, the shop had an actual Panasonic rep in who was eager to help me evaluate the G80 so I had to think on my feet. "Can I just see how the focus tracking works when its being controlled by the app compared to my GX80?" "Of course" "OK, you go over the other side of the shop and I'll put the app on and then you walk towards me. Slowly". " OK....Is this far enough? " "No. Further away". (Faintly) " How about now?" "Yes. Now walk back really slowly" (pretend to study app screen while sending commands) "How did it do?" "Its the same as the GX80 so I'll stick with that for now" What's also the same on the G80 and the the GX80 is that VLOG doesn't work on it either. I have an idea about a clue in the GH4 that might shed some light but don't hold your breath. jonpais, TwoScoops, Chris Oh and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthiasd Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 But it should be possible to get V-log on the g85 with a custom firmware woudln't it? I know for a fact the g85 could handle it, isn't there a way to just copy the files from gh4 to g85 or something lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
