Proper use of Dynamic and I Resolution settings on GH3 for movies

greytail2013 — Mon, 18 Nov 2013 10:54:32 +0000

I am confused about how to use the Dynamic range and I resolution settings on the GH3. I have three of these cameras for shooting weddings and I have them matched pretty closely. Coupled with this is the fact that these cameras are used by shooters who may not know the camera that well. Most of the shots are in poor light, so I used AVCHD rather than Quicktime. I have Dynamic range set on standard and I Resolution turned off.

Latest Live Music Video from Me and my GH2

tylerknight — Sun, 17 Nov 2013 21:30:41 +0000

Hey everyone!

I had the chance to work with a great musician and friend Maneli Jamal to shoot a video of him performing his original song Cold Arrival.

He plays a very niche type of acoustic guitar called fingerstyle guitar ( Andy Mckee, Don Ross, Michael Hedges to name a few)

This was with the GH2, Flowmotion 2.0, Canon FD 24mm f2.8 and a wicked musician!

Let me know what your thoughts are on the grade and overall shoot!

And definitely check out Maneli on youtube he's incredible.

First paid gig with the GH3

tylerknight — Mon, 11 Nov 2013 16:22:59 +0000

This is the first paid gig I have gotten a chance to use my GH3 on so was really excited to get out and see how it performed.

Overall I was really happy with how it handled the shoot from being on a crane, steadicam, handheld, and tripod.

The only problem I had which was my own fault, was that I left "continuous autofocus" turned on even though I was on the manual focus setting and it did hunt a few times. I have since turned it off.

AKG C747 Shotgun Condenser Microphone works fine directly plugged into the GH3

gameb — Thu, 07 Nov 2013 03:18:53 +0000

Just tried it out quickly and I get a really good level on the GH3. Very happy about that. I will post a test in the following days. Check my other topic out for setup and connection: http://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/4450/akg-c747-premium-quality-mini-shotgun-on-gh2-audio-test#Item_26

What shotgun microphones are being used directly plugged into the GH3?

gameb — Mon, 28 Oct 2013 05:03:57 +0000

I just got my GH3 and am very disappointed that I cannot use the AT875R on it, because it gives a mic level which is too low. What shotgun microphone are being used directly plugged into this camera beside the standard ones like sennheiser mke 400, Rode Video mic, Panasonic DMW-MS2E etc.? (Couldn't find a topic about it, if it is already discussed somewhere else, feel free to cancel topic)

wich steady cam for Gh3 with anamorphic

michal — Mon, 04 Nov 2013 08:44:22 +0000

Hellow fellows, i wanted to ask you what steadycam should i use with my GH3, i will shoot with and without anamorphic, the rig will weight around 2.5Kg with anamorphic, and 1.5 without. i was into the laing P03 because of the reviews and price, the price point is ok for me as it looks like the best around without going for 600$. And just to mention it will be my first steadycam. What do you think friends ? Thanks

Except sending to panasonic of course. I fill like little boy with injured, dying pet :) I know its a punishment for selling Gh2.

Showcasing some of my work from 2013!

tylerknight — Sun, 03 Nov 2013 12:33:27 +0000

Thanks to this forum and the work from Vitaliy and the other developers, I have been able to have access to some amazing settings for the GH series cameras and really start learning about shooting.

Up until I got my GH1 2 years ago, I was shooting primarily on a Sony NX5U which was a very video oriented machine.

Since then, I feel I have begun taking a more cinematic approach to my videos and putting a lot more time into the composition and editing of my shots.

here are some of my favorite projects from 2013 for your viewing pleasure! (not in order)

Documentary for Stellula Music in Schools ( non for profit to bring music into schools )

The Code. A 48 film challenge for Culture Days in Canada

When I Was Young - Jaime Payne (music video)

Promo video for an automated vending machine company in Toronto

Toasted .A short film project for a friend's film class.

Sad But True - The Brights. A parody video of " I Got You Babe"

Your feedback either good or awful is welcomed!

Thanks for everyone's work to date!

Gh3 doubled frames at 1080p60 Quicktime

georgewde — Thu, 31 Oct 2013 19:14:56 +0000

When I play back a clip recorded with Quicktime 1080P60 setting every frame is doubled. Only 30 frames are effectively recorded. I tried a number of different apps to play it back, even Panasonics own Photofunstudio, PC as well as Mac Quicktime player, no matter what it seems 60 frames don't exist in the recording, every frame is doubled up. What could be wrong? Has anybody tried to slomo a 108P60 clip and is it actually working?

Street Skateboarding Part with GH2/GH3/AG-AC90

Stiffla — Wed, 30 Oct 2013 11:28:13 +0000

I have been shooting a skateboarding part over the last Summer of 2013 in Vienna.

GH2 was equipped with Moon T5 and T7, GH3 in MOV 50P mode and the camcorder was in AVCHD 50P and 28Mbit/s 50p. I am really satisfied with these cameras, but color correction and matching was really tricky with the camcorder. The codec fell apart as well unfortunatly.

Take a look!

regards Stiffla

GH3 sensor failure?

EspenB — Mon, 09 Sep 2013 03:10:25 +0000

I was taking some Pictures at Alexander platz in Berlin when my GH3 sensor literaly died from one shoot to the next. In an instant the image from the sensor is mostly rolling banding with a fainth unclear image of the subject. Se Attached file. The camera still takes Pictures if you press the shutter, but the recorded images are allmost as bad as the liveview on the LCD/viewfinder. The dislay Works ok during playback of previously recorded pictures. Have the sensor gone bad? I tried a different lens, but there was the same malfunction regardeless. Comments.

The camera is obviousl under guarantee, but the body have suffered some minor dents during use - but still worked perfectly until my Berlin trip. I have a slight worry the shop might try to blame the malfunction as a result of the minor dents.

Any comments on this strange malfunction?

Lumix 14-140 disassembly?

jaycanode — Wed, 25 Sep 2013 21:40:14 +0000

Howdy. Worked on a shoot in the Grand Canyon for a bit with my GH3 and "kit lens". Body did great lens got a bit sandy. Everything works as it should internally but the focus ring now has less than desirable "action". Am I crazy for wanting to try and fix this myself? If not, anyone got a line on an exploded diagram of this lens? Thanks.

Crashed Panasonic GH3 and 8mm fisheye... sold for repairing elements?

kaikerr — Tue, 17 Sep 2013 03:29:10 +0000

Well, it's hard to write this, but I bought a GH3 three months ago and last weekend as I was filming some landscape timelapse in Valle del Jerte (so beautiful) the camera drop from a second floor as I was approaching to stop the timelapse after 12 minutes filming with no problem (damn wind, 2000 € flying!!!) and smashed against a rock. As it's seen in the photo the camera it's not very damaged as I could expect (it was al in one piece) but obviously it doesn't turn on and I don't know what to do with it: - send it to Panasonic? don't know how much money could be and never heard about an experience like this, how long could they take to repair it or whether it is worth... - or maybe sell it as a repairing elements kit for other cameras...

And now I need a new camera as my job depends on it, but a lot of doubts come to me: - buy another GH3 as there's nothing still on hacking it? - a hacked GH2 as I wait for the new upcoming GH5? Have someone any truthful news on thew GH5 or a soon hack for the GH3?
