@aked Thanks for great interview.

@Vitaliy_Kiselev lol, BTW I would have cast you as Dr. Evil in a world-premiere GH3 short film!

I dont undestand that chart 'Required extra investment: Lumix X 12-35 f2.8 and CV 25mm f0.95'

The lenses go according to what you want to do and your pocket. You can buy the GH3 and use old lenses or other lens M4/3 more economical.

@mozes I just noticed that the video was posted twice before and removed once. I don't want to be redundant but at least people can now go straight to the only good part of the video instead of having to go through all the marketing BS.

ahbleza - That graphic makes no sense. Why is a Mac Pro required for the BMDCC? Why did the Sony require a 70-200/2.8 when none of the others required a telephoto zoom?

It is extraordinary how people omit the Nikon camera. Do these people look through there ass. The only camera beside the BMC of Panasonic gh3 that I would consider is the Nikon D600. Just look at the Nikon D600 promo video and at the Sony one or Canon ones. Super Dr, very very low moire and little aliasing, fully uncompressed 422 hdmi out and very low rolling shutter for $ 700 more than a gh3 or $ 800 less than the Sony alpha camera.

People are just entrenched in there brands and hype and just never look beyond that.

@ahbleza

Why does one need to buy the Panny x lenses, and Nokton 25mm? I sold my Nokton couple of months back, and have never regretted it. Use whatever lenses you have accrued with GH2. i have a complete suit of Carl Zeiss zfs and am very pleased thank you

Here's an interesting comparison (not mine.)

Don't know how it is at Photokina but at NAB, the major manufacturers like Sony and Panasonic also send engineers to the show and they are in the exhibits floor. They dress like any sales rep and stand next or close to the product they help to develop. Sales reps only learn a script based on a standard list of possible questions which is very limited. When someone throw a curb ball they call the engineers to come to the rescue. The problem in the case of Sony (my experience) is that those engineers are Japanese and only speak limited English, so it's hard to get any information unless you speak their native language.

Did the photokina team or anyone else for that matter report on what the increments for Shutter speed are?

So where, again, did Panny specifically say that the sensor is not muli-aspect?

In their spec sheets :-) Check resolutions :-)

As for your "bigger pixel" idea. It is wrong. If you make sensor smaller (not multi aspect now), you reduce number of total pixel count. Simple.

So where, again, did Panny specifically say that the sensor is not muli-aspect?

Also, you guys wanted lower light useability, so to keep the same sensor size, they decreased max pixel count by 1million pixels, presumably to increase the pixel sizes. Wouldn't this ruin the potential multi-aspect ability of the sensor? It sounds like you guys got what you asked for and now aren't happy that you got it.

I know this post goes a little bit off topic, but in regards of gh3 .mov container, I´ve had colorgraded some music videos which were shoot on canon 7D (which stores videos in .mov ) and I noticed that the colours holds better and are better to grade than my hacked GH1 .. could someone smart clarify if .mov container can store more color information than .mts even that both are 4:2:0?

2 Graded frames form the 'Cat video', I am not vaguely skilled as a colourist, but the latitude/colour in these clips were very easy to achieve results.
