Newbie here - Video on a few cameras I'm considering

[nvldk]

Hi,
 
As the owner of the G6 I'd recomend you this little camera.

Look at my website www.novyludek.com, all the videodiary was shot on the G6. 

 

Just one short example:

GX7 makes the most sense to me. The only question is if i wanted to shoot hand held w a prime (and no IBIS for video) what needs to be done in PP to stabilize it. I want to see how cumbersome that will be.

I would not try to stabilise in PP, unless you shot your video at fast shutter speeds and if possible 50/60p. It won't look good.

 

My choice would be the E-M10... I mean, do you really need 24p for a home video? 30p will be fine, makes it smoother (unless you live in an area where having 30 instead of 25p will give you problems).

As I mentioned, nothing on the market is going to make amateur videos of your family look better than 5-axis stabilization.  For the record, PP stabilization on extended clips is typically lousy, not to mention time consuming to accomplish.

I think i'm coming to the conclusion that for my simple home use...not having the IBIS might be detrimental if not using OIS all the time.
