So, your plan of kidnapping Panasonic lead manager kids is going smooth?
:-)
P.S. I just do not know any more efficient way
Tomorrow is the premier of GH5. The camera will be in stores later in spring. They are making final adjustments for FW. I hope the GH5 will have:
These are little things and mostly doable with FW programming.
4/3Rumors says 180fps maximum video frame rate. So probably 1080p 180, not bad at all!
Specs are correct, as they are from press kit.
"If the specs are correct, the GH5 seems to have the same sensor as the E-M1."
So it seems Panasonic used a off the shelf Sony sensor after all. No surprises there.
DLSR territory... While the Canon 5D4 was a big disappointment for video this will not be. Heavy weight probably means effectiv heat management.
GH4 = Approx. 560g (body, card, battery)
GH5 = 725 g (SD card, including battery)
Almost 30 per cent more weight.
Battery (and card) seems to weight the same 80 grams.
Wow, thats heavy for a 4/3 micro format... 725 grams, deep in DSLR territory.

LUMIX DC-GH 5
LEICA DG Vario-Elmarit 12 - 60 mm F 2.8 - 4 Power OIS
LUMIX GX VARIO 12 - 35 mm F 2.8 II ASPH. POWER OIS
LUMIX GX VARIO 35-100 mm F 2.8 II POWER OIS
If the specs are correct, the GH5 seems to have the same sensor as the E-M1. USB Type-C is very welcomed, fast charging through the camera would be nice, which can also help with all sort of stuff with a new GRIP, extra ports and possibilities.
Bluetooth can be interesting if Panasonic implements a solution like Nikon for remote mobile app. I've seen a lot of people praising it for its practicality.
Hopefully the changes in the 12-35 and 35-100 GX II lenses is more than just cosmetic like in some other "II" lenses from Panasonic.
The GH4 is 132.9 x 93.4 x 83.9 mm and 560g with battery, the GH5 is a little bit bigger but considerably heavier than the GH4 - and E-M1 II.
I wonder what made the GH5 this much heavier, was it the IBIS alone? Well, the E-M1 also has it and it's nowhere near 725g, what else?
I already posted this on other topics, but it is worth discussing in GH5 topic also
This is Olympus MK II main motherboard. If my sources are right, GH5 motherboard will be very similar. For such price MB must not have SD slots directly mounted on it, as well as do not have any external connectors.
In short it means that it'll me least integrated and most complex MB for few years for Panasonic.
Still no picture of the sensor. I'm dying to discover the aspect ratio of the sensor...
Nikon has it, BT has low energy consumption.
Looks like on the photo with LCD flipped out, it has the Bluetooth symbol, what will that do instead of wifi connection?
AE-lock button seems to bee much closer to thumb in GH5 than in GH4. It is good because it is difficult to use back button focusing in GH4. It needs too much thumb movement and the video shakes easily. I hope is will be possible to program separate AF and AE lock and maybe even WB lock.
What are the new drive modes?
I think 6k Photo and post focus?
I bet the joystick is to move between PDAF points...
Time to get rid of such things. All it needs is one button and good eye tracker inside EVF for this.
I bet the joystick is to move between PDAF points...
@theSUBVERSIVE Yes that's a good point, assuming there isn't some technical reason it couldn't be done, that would be the ideal solution for right now. And the GH6 or 7 could be h265 only, as by then everything would have caught up.
@aldolega If Panasonic is going to offer H.265, why can't they also offer H.264? I mean, DJI just did that, they are offering H.265 but there is still H.264 for those that prefer it, Panasonic could simply do the same. It doesn't need to be a hassle with just H.265 like Samsung did.
1 - because the video is 4k @60. And 2 - because the host is a Panny ambassador now.
I did not get it, why do you think this was shot on GH5? I skipped through video couldn't watch it really..
Based on the clips inserted into the podcast, it looks like he shot his documentary in 4K 60P as well. Probably done purely for marketing reasons, as that is a standalone feature of this camera. If the cam can really do 180 fps HD (3x slow-mo in a 60P timeline), it could still add a nice dramatic effect to the final piece.
Some additional specs http://www.43rumors.com/ft4-additional-gh5-specs-180fps-225-focus-points/
first footage shot on the GH5?
The clips properties show it was shot at 4k 60p..on a panasonic lens....????
Any chance the GH5 could have built-in waveform?
Why are you so pessimistic Vitaliy?...
