@alcomposer, I'm not getting virtually any aliasing and moire when shooting 120 and 180 fps. Double check your files on different machines and or displays. I thought I was getting tons of moire with 4K 60p and it turned out to be only an issue when viewing the files in MPC-HC on a 27" 2.5k display. 4K and 1080 displays don't show it at all. In any case it's worth a double check.
Cheers, Pete

@Manu4Vendetta my testing shows that VFR on GH5 is full of moire and really only usable if shooting organic things, like water.
Would be nice if Panasonic could fix the low quality VFR in the next Firmware. But I get the feeling its a sensor thing. Could be wrong though. There may be lots of maths calculated on the processor that is throwing away detail... I would love to be proven wrong.
Hopefully with the separation of Lumix team from ProVideo, Lumix will be able to make changes that won't be considered Varicam killers.
@caveport with all the news about camera companies, I'm starting to feel sorry for the big 4.
The V90's are here:
I think Panasonic should release the firmware hounds now. Before too many people sell their GH5 ;-)
Gosh @Vitaliy_Kiselev is anyone keeping their pre-orders?

Rumour regarding 20FPS RAW:
http://thenewcamera.com/panasonic-gh5-firmware-rumor/
I would much prefer a higher quality 6k Photo mode. 422, 10bit, > 200mbps
One thing that many people are forgetting with the 20FPS rumour: The GH5 has two SD slots, and thus it may be possible to save one photo to each card interlaced. Such a system was used on the Blackmagic Ursa for 24-25-30p AdobeDNG RAW images.
So if the camera can do 12FPS currently- possibly it could do 24 if using both cards, (and given that both cards are V60-90)... so much tech, so little firmware! :-(
@nobbystylus it may be referring to GH5 RAW image files only. If you take an image in RAW can you test to see if it is now viewable?
Hi - sadly after updating there is no change in the finder behaviour towards 10 bit files despite the fact that it says in the readme files that the new OS update supports GH5 files.
@nobbystylus can you confirm its the gh5 update?
"Let’s get right to the point. This post is a Predictive AF comparison test between the Lumix GH5, G85, Olympus EM-1 Mark ll, and the Nikon D500. I’ve been shooting the new Lumix GH5 for almost two months, and Panasonic’s DFD autofocus is now producing equal to or better results than any camera I’ve shot to date. "

GH5 update for Mac OS looks to have just launched. Hopefully this is the Finder update so we can view 10 bit files etc.
@caveport you have reason.
@ Manu4Vendetta That skin tone comparison video shows exactly why LUTs are a poor choice for these kind of technical tests. The LUT has clipped all the highlight detail. A better test would be to use a proper grading application where the signal feeding into the LUT can be controlled, or a custom curve can be used to avoid clipping.
