Marcus Hultberg Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Hello people :-) I have a question (for you experts ;-)) regarding my new DC-GH5. Whenever I take a picture there seems to be a slight, subtle drop in the quality of the picture being layered on the SSD-card, compared to what I monitor on both the screen and viewfinder prior to taking the picture. I can't seem to find any explanation on this anywhere. I've tried adjusting various settings, but to no avail. I'm using SanDisk, Extreme Plus, 90 MB/s, and the Vario 12-35, 2.8 lens. I been wondering of it has something to with the speed of the SSD-card or the minimum arpeture of 2.8? When I adjust the aperture manually it doesn't affect what I'm previewing on the screen or viewfinder. The change only applies to the stored picture (Can this be changed, btw)? I'm VERY new to DSLR so this might be normal, but I find it annoying to not be able to completely trust what I'm seeing. I'm therefore hoping for a solution :-) Any help will be appreciated.

Trek of Joy Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I'm guessing you're shooting raw. What you see in the EVF and on the LCD is a processed version of the raw. If you shoot a jpeg it should be pretty much identical outside of how your monitor is calibrated. If you're shooting raw it'll be flatter and less sharp when viewed on a computer. When you process it, then you can replicate the look you see in the camera. Chris Orangenz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orangenz Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Also, add an item to your custom menu called "Constant Preview". This needs to be ON most of the time. When shooting in very low light (long exposures) you turn it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
