Can the GH2 have custom picture profiles?
So: - There's no way to get flat/log profile. - No way to get higher resolution AVCHD. - A firmware upgrade will make it unhackable. Damn, I guess then we'll have to upgrade our gear. But in my opinion GH4 isn't that much better, re…

@apefos I don't know anything about technical stuff, but damn, I want this firmware upgrade so badly :)

Can the GH2 have custom picture profiles?
I'll love to have an update on the GH2 firmware, I love this camera image madly. But as @apefos has pointed out, it's not likely to happen. It's an old model and Panasonic has implemented in newer models all the stuff we'll like …

Excessive Grain (Not ISO Bug)
I use Moon T8 and: - Yes, that noise it's perfectly normal for dark shots. - Crisp/sharp shots: is probably due to lenses and aperture people use.

The End NR4 - Stable - High - Intra - GH2 Patches - 03/28/2015 - by Apefos
@dado023 25p isn't the best mode for GH2, and it's interlaced. The best mode for quality is 24p. I've used Valkyrie patch on 25p HBR mode with success when I needed it, but nothing beat the 24p mode quality. As apefos has pointed out…

PTool v3.66d public beta topic
Sorry if this has already been answered somewhere before, I've search the forums, FAQs, etc.. to know if we can expect something new from the GH2 hack (or a new ptool version). I know it's an old model and it's probably unlikely becau…

The End NR4 - Stable - High - Intra - GH2 Patches - 03/28/2015 - by Apefos
@apefos I've tested the following patches against Valkyrie: - The End All-I (Intra GOP 1). - Epilog High120 (GOP 3 I believe). PAL, natural light, interior, manual lenses (MD Rokkor-X 28mm 2.8), all electronic features off, smooth profile all…

Wow, you're quick @apefos. I'm interested in the new NR versions (different denoisers) and the GOP 1 24p patch, I'll try to test it asap.

"The End" - Patch for GH2 Hack
@Manicd the room had a window, light was coming from the left of the picture but never direct sunlight. It was shot one after the other, the light didn't change. What you see in the front wood of the record player it's noise (it can be se…

"The End" - Patch for GH2 Hack
I've made a test with Canis Mayoris Night Matrix, The End, Moon T8 and Valkyrie 444 Type-Zero. Tripod shot, natural light interior (around 17:00), Auto White Balance, both at 160, 320, 640 & 1250 iso (I've double checked to avoid iso n…

"THE PATCH" - for GH2 Hack - Developed by APEFOS
Hi, Great to know that there's a new patch for the GH2 going on. Thanks for this! I couldn't find any info about GOP (it's 1, 3 ,etc...). I usually use Moon (GOP 1) or Valkyrie 444 (GOP 3) for pro work. Sorry if this was also answe…

GH2 High Quality GOP3 Settings, Series 2: 'AN' Valkyrie, GOLGOP3-13, GOP3ZILLA, Duke, natural :-)
@bkmcwd Thanks for the info. I'll stick to "Valkyrie" for the moment, the 24p mode is amazing and the HBR mode is very good for long events. I'll give "Spizz" a try soon. Thanks for your work!

GH2 High Quality GOP3 Settings, Series 2: 'AN' Valkyrie, GOLGOP3-13, GOP3ZILLA, Duke, natural :-)
For non-technicals like me :) I use a lot Valkyrie 444, and I was wondering what's the differences between "Spizz" and the "Valkyrie" series?

Windmotion - upsampling to 4:4:4
@BurnetRhoades & @rean: I've not used windmotion, but I´m interested in the tool. I like avisynth and what you can achieve with this free tool. The film script I wrote about it's amazing, but as a mac os x user I've just used matc…

Windmotion - upsampling to 4:4:4
I've keep my eyes on this project, I'm always looking a way to improve the footage I get from the camera. I've used avisynth in the past a lot. It's incredible flexible and powerful, but not for newbies, you have to know (someho…

Color correction solutions on imac (mini displayport)
Thanks for the reply. It's great to know that the MXO works with Apple Color, and CS6 (do you get it working with premiere?). I need something my eyes can trust, the film happens mostly at night, so I need to accurately correct shadows and blac…

will these Minolta lenses work with GH2?
I have a 28mm MD Rokkor 2.8 (I don't know if it's the same model as the one listed) and for video it's a good lens. Not as wide as you would expect (as it's really the equivalent of a 50mm on a Super 35 sensor) but I used it a lo…

GH2 Third party batteries
I think it'll work as you said: it'll charge on the original charger and it'll shutdown without warning. What grabbed my attention was the picture of the battery (apparently as the seller said it's the one you'll actually ge…

GH2 Third party batteries
I was looking in Aliexpress for GH2 batteries and I found this one for 19$. In the picture provided by the seller it looks like the original Lumix battery with the logo (poorly) hidden. The specs looks good (but as always with these chinese stuff, n…

Should I switch to Gh2?
I've been (and I still) a Canon profesional user for the last 3 years. I've shoot with the 5D Mark II and the 550D/t2i, mostly promos, events, studio, documentary & live stuff. I'm not a tech or DOP, so I speak from a filmmaker/ed…
