@From_Paris "I will make my film in 24P and I will transfer in 25P in post-production." Yes, this is probably the best solution -- but there are various ways you can do that -- so research well and choose properly.

@herbycamer The issue of a better patch for 25p misses the point of the mechanical flaws with the GH2's 25p. 24p is native, true progressive. 25p is un-flagged progressive frames laid on a 50i stream -- and that's truly consumer junk on a range of levels. No matter how good the patch is -- the recording method is crap.

If I lived in a PAL country -- I'd film in 24p and use the appropriate method to convert the footage to 25p -- and there are a range of different and effective ways to do that.

Hello all! @ From_Paris. You need more diplomacy i think. I'm a PAL user too... I know your problems

Unfortunaly, 24P mode is better since conception of the GH2, because of native sensor output.

I think the good question for Nick Driftwood is: "Do you think is it possible to make a patch like Orion, Sedna or Mysteron ONLY for PAL HBR25p that match 24P mode, or if GH2 can't do that?"

Now, you can try Bkmcwd's Patch like GolGOP or GOPzilla. It look well in PAL mode ( a new silent user!!!)

Thanks VK, ND, Bkmcwd and others actif for this great work they do for community, don't forget that...

@From_Paris , I think that "Panny" hacked it's own firmware to provide us HBR mode :-) they did not count on 25p.

@From_Paris I afraid nobody would réponse mais parlez vous like that ;=) Just choose on setting and try out of yourself, whatever patch ( sedna, orion, mystery ) work with your sd card, then call it très bien

And why this fucking 24P is ALWAYS better than the 25P I need!??? :))))

SHIT GIVE ME ONE 25P VERY VERY GOOD!

THANKS ALL

well i just want to say i had no problems with sedna aq1A 720-50 home testing, recorded fine no write errors! very nice settings work great for pal country's, was wondering if i could change to gop 1 but haven't try it yet. and detail is so great that i believe could be upscaled to 1080 with no problems!

once again thanks driftwood, if you ever come to argentina you got a place to stay and eat!

btw sedna is referring to a star beyond Uranus possibly the solar system 10th planet hah!

@tinbeo

Yes I need the HBR (1080P) for French TV. Mandatory.

I do not know what patch will give me the best 25P in image quality.

Orion V4, Sedna ... ?

Thanks

Didn't you want to shoot in HBR mode? And did you ever update your camera with the new firmware of Panasonic?

@tinbeo @Driftwood

I saw all the tests we VIMEO, every patch, I do not know why but I think Orion V4B always seems to be better (like Quantum V9B few weeks ago).

Orion = V4B Sedna Mysteron = 25P = all in too?

Thank you for helping me.

@spaceandtime

Myst burst mode seems to only crash when there is alot of unpredictable movement.

All-I (intra) encoders are unaffected by movement. In fact, the more and faster the movement the better, because motion blur reduces details. Only sharpness and hight detail in any one single frame can stress the encoder.

Increasing ISO will increase noise, which, given its random nature and Mysteron’s sharp matrix, will result in extra detail. The next thing you know, the camera crashes.

@LumixUser i know sedna A AQ1 will win in post production,.. i was wrong at first then realized fault my side,.. my gpu i changed it to nvidia 9 series ,.. better gpu drives cuda well,.. then after all this i found sedna with vegas a great combination for severe grading and fstops in redgiant suites,... mysteron is also technically better,.. the mysteron v1 is so friendly i tried it with +9 fstops,.. was sooo good,... sedna a aq1 and mysteron non burst responses so similar,...for burst test thank u,..i didn't try burst yet,.. risk factor!!

@thepalalias, late reply to but I also would like to see the SeAQuake and Quantum v9b vs Sedna and Mysteron. Maybe throw terraquake in there too? Like Terraquake VS Mysteron, and Seaquake VS Sedna VS Orion

Small test with Orion v4b in werry bright condition, and fast movement. Pany 14-140, s50, iso 160. No grading, or anything.
