 So I'm filming here with a GH5 here. This is nearly the launch day right here in the UK and this is 150 megabit per second 4k 60 frames per second Awesome. Hello. So who are you? Hey, I'm Kevin. I'm here with Panasonic playing with the GH5 So there's a big photo show right now going on right here in the UK Yeah, it's a Birmingham NEC and it's the photography show live and this is the coolest camera that has ever been Existed in the world or we're glad that you think so. We've had a massive demand for this camera You know, we've had huge great Insurgent from people where they love the GH4 and they wanted to progress with their kit and GH5 does that So right here. I'm filming with a GH5 and this first time I'm using it So I'm not like quite totally maybe an expert. Maybe you can you can take over I'll be holding it right here. Okay. Now you're following me, right? What are you dressed like? Sorry? What is that? This is a card for a game? Okay, cool. Let's walk over here All right, let's walk over here. So it feels like a really nice to hold I think Check it out. So what are you dressed up like? Fast game. How does it feel to show fast game? Cool, right now is a this like what they call San Patrick's Day, I think and there's Comic Con going on. Cool. Thanks a lot Maybe I can I can grab it again. Let's try it again all right so It's got I mean this guy will be very interesting to see it's got very good autofocus now, right much faster autofocus Yeah, I mean the reactions for this camera are absolutely incredible the autofocus is instant You'd be caught in beyond broadcast quality on this kind of kit And the steady this five axis steady shot, let's walk a little bit. We're not using any rig here You've got it handheld and you're walking so you can see you know the Stabilization works incredibly well. We're stabilizing in body and in lens and right now. I'm using the Leica 12 to 60 Let's let's go over here. Let's check these guys out You want two of these guys at the same time? All right There's a lot of action going on. Hey, what are you? Justice Lee Thanks. All right. All right. I think it looks great and the steady seems very very steady You know, we've got a kid here that can broadcast only gonna do beyond broadcast quality We can actually do four to two ten bit in body You know setting the president where we can take technology on top of that We can also do six K photo. We can shoot at 30 frames a second and lift stills at 18 megapixels But come on, let's have a little walk in and what we'll do is have a look at the stand. Let's come find some people The neck fingers crossed they let me in yeah, yeah, I meet you Yeah, I need to grab my My badge right here So the photography show they allow cameras, I hope they allow cameras and they allow us to film Which is a great privilege on top of that It gives you the opportunity to get hands on and actually be one of the first people to get hands on with this kit and show People what it's actually capable of How's it feeling the hand? I'm not using any steady cam at all. I'm just holding it like you're holding it right now and and It's it's very interesting to see how the performances of this is what's called a Contrast-based focus, right? Yeah, it's super fast now with a newer chip Right, so we're using the Venus engine and the fact is that actually if you want to use depth of body focus So but it's incredibly fast. It would just zoom all the way out and get that focus point immediately But how you can hear the music. Let's have a look at what's going on. Yeah, let's go Try the So this should look like like cinema. It will look exactly like cinema So what people are often using so the BBC and other large corporations are using this can use inside cars big car shows Anything else on top of that what you're finding is it's the versatility of the product So whether you can put it in a drone or whatever you want to use it for actually on the stand Hopefully we'll be able to get hold of Nick Driftwood. Nick Driftwood is a pro cinematic Producer and he actually uses GH5 and GH4 He's progressed to GH5 and he's actually shooting in 6k and cropping down So he's even taking what we're using for photography and taking that and using it as well So cropping down to 4k. It's impressive stuff. Here. We are if you have a pan round You can see our stand you can see where we're going from here There's lots of people. I think I heard the 30,000 people come into the show. Well looking at this There's the main photography event in the UK. Yes, yes So more people come here than any other show and mainly because all the latest kits here So you can actually come down see the GH5 the 1 to 400 lens all the things that people want to see and get their hands On we can't in a general Marketplace so they're trying all the Trying right here And then you can slide along and choose Showing off to the best place to get hands on in the UK and how come are you launching? During the show basically is a coincidence. It's it's well. It's a pleasant coincidence So normally what happens is we tend to kind of like slightly miss it So we always end up watching a couple of weeks late. However this year It's worked out perfectly so we've managed to get a GH5 in every corner of the stand Which is perfect for us because it means that people can come down see what we've got and actually play with it It's very very cool. All right, let's check these guys right here We've managed to get Nick driftwood here. Hopefully we can drag him off Nick's the guy that we were talking about where actually he's using the kit professionally And you know he's an ambassador. He's getting out there and really kind of using this kit show is true potential and what it's actually capable of He's been using a pre-production model, right? He's used a pre-production model So he's progressed from GH4 using pre-production models of GH5 To kind of make sure that everything works make sure that when it hits the market place It's all perfect and up to speed so maybe he's the guy the boost that has the most experience with Just the guy the move and it's the guy the move that's got the most bits clipped onto one So he's the guy that we need to grab hold of and have a look at what he's got What is that? 12k 360 brick using the Panasonic GX 80 cameras with high-sugar lenses Yes, is that the is that the coolest quality 360 camera the best quality the best in the world? Yeah Do you get more than 4k out of this right you could get like 8k or 12k 360 4k every direction 12k every direction Not quite that much right, but so you put these videos on YouTube and how do you merge? We use all panel video pro that's stitching software To stitch all the six cameras similar to any other 360 stitching apart from the quality of Videos quite good I believe it I'd still better check that same as my DVH 200 it should be on living 20 frames 0.05 Hi, so who are you? I'm Nick Driftwood. Who are you? I'm a Charback from ArmDirises.net. So it's very nice to meet you and you you've been using the GH5 a little bit, right? Yeah, I take it. It's been okayed. I have been using the GH5 quite a lot three months now I've had it well battles and forwards people have been borrowing and begging them stealing them. Yeah, you know So the camera, what do you want to know? So it's like a very very special camera, right? It has stuff that people are doing crazy over this is the people's camera. It's a revolution It's sub 2,000 pound. It's not a camera like it specked out. Yeah, which can match it 4210 bit internal better chroma subsampling you've got Over a billion colors of tonality Much more than the 16 million colors of tonality of all the other 8-bit cameras You see around here and it can do it all internally 4210 bit We've also got 50p 60p at 4k and 180 frames per second slow-mo And a HD level up to variable so from 2 to 180 We've also got high resolution anamorphic coming. It will do anamorphic like the GH4 and it'll also do it at 60p Anamorphic in 4k. Have you tried the anamorphic? Yes, I use it all the time So that means a wide cinema style, right? Because this is now pixel-for-pixel readout. Yeah up 4k the GH4 was slightly cropped This is the exact so when I put a times 2 lens on it literally is double the size So when I desqueeze it the anamorphic picture. We're getting twice as wide shots Cinema scope so for what do you think about the autofocus now? GH4 That's just three of us Amazing Continuous When you track someone around half down the shutter, they're always in focus Not only that not only that I've got dual-limit stabilization to which means Lens and the body. It's got full image stabilization. I don't really need a gimbal anymore. It's so lightweight to use It's just fantastic. That's why I'm loving it. Let me jump on this side. So what do you think about the autofocus in video? All the focus of video is brilliant as I say 0.05 video with V-LOG I've now got V-LOG assist. I'm going to show you on my other camera Let's borrow that Over here. We've got a metabone speed booster on and that's 0.71 With a Sigma Art 50mm lens. Yeah. Now. Let's look at this The autofocus speed for bringing to my friend here Kevin I'll touch that Look how fast that autofocusing 0.05 of a second. Nice bit of depth of field I can change my settings on the metabones We've got a V-LOG as well when I change this mode now to movie making mode Like it's in that lovely gray V-LOG 4C V-LOG L but it's pretty similar to how it used to do. Yeah, but we can set that up V-LOG and See with a V-LOG view assist We can load up to four Different lookup tables You can actually kind of like get a taste of how it's going to look like after you do the color correction later You can see how it's going to look before you actually commit So you don't have to commit it to the card or via the the show gun You can't burn it in with the show gun, but with this When you turn it on you can see exactly what you're getting So if you made a LUT or a look Inside something like the vintage resolve you can load the VLT off the SD card into the camera via this V-LOG view assist mode LUT select load it to set one two three or four so up to four different looks can be Loaded up if you haven't got one you can you always use the V-LOG 709 look Just so when it is turned on you don't get the grays you get the full color look of whatever lookup table you've employed Okay Some gray stuff when you do your V-LOG Gray log and then I can see Chop in there you can see Yeah, what I'm actually getting Have you done the what you call the the coloring? Have you done that after how does it look at the end of the V-LOG when I bring in to resolve? I applied the same LUTs maybe or even adjust it with more nodes and layer it up more until I'm happy with the look It's fantastic 10 bit 42 amazing is really really good. Don't listen to what anyone else is saying. It's fantastic Okay, so 10 bit is a big deal big deal big deal over a billion colors of tonality. You've also got Better chroma subsampling as I said that's the chroma reds the chroma blues You've got both two both lines four to two full Dithering or four to two ten bit inside the camera You don't need that to show that but if you don't do the coloring after post-processing then the ten bit Maybe it's not that useful is mostly Think about like skies blue skies the gradations yeah in eight bits often when it's quite a bright The Sun is out the film in the blue skies. You might see stepping Yeah, you definitely see on a 10 bit monitor and we're all going 10 bit now monitors TVs PCs We're all going the 10 bit way. We're moving away from 8 bit so more and more people like you You'll be able to see that they got that problematic stepping you get with 8 bit. We want pure gradations We want better green screen blue screen Masking and we can pull out the colors better with 10 bit Obviously, we've got a much better chance of getting a better looking image Is this an HDR camera? I do 4k HDR will do what hi hybrid log gamma We've got a new gamma curve coming out in the summer on a new firmware update So you will be able to record hybrid log gamma images with this camera. It's a light. We're doing the V log It's a flat gamma curve where it needs it meets an SD kind of curve And those that was that will formulate an HDR style hybrid log gamma. We're calling it The high dynamic range image so you can record it for your TVs and the great thing about HLG is it's backwards compatible Yeah, and I personally believe that's the way it's going to go over things like Dolby vision and the rivals HLG 10 So I think we're on the right track definitely with the hybrid log gamma We've got inside this camera and so this is a 60p HDR or 30 only? HDR high dynamic range. Well, it goes in from 24 25 30 50 60 Yeah, and I haven't tested high dynamic range out yet in terms of video with the hybrid log gamma because we haven't got it yet So we don't know what level that will come out at so I can't give you any coupes The usefulness of that is you're getting all-in truck codec Yeah, which temporal and spatial Compressions much better than the long gone. We're getting 400 megabits. I believe it's going to be 8264, but I haven't confirmed that yet I think that's going to look a lot better than what we're currently getting With the long gone, but having said that the compression routines in here are absolutely phenomenal Am I wrong in wanting to see an option to H to have h265 in 4k so I can operate faster So the file size would be smaller. You're not wanting it. You never know you might get it We're changing over now to you know new Compression like h265 because let's face it as we go beyond 4k cuz 4k limit is only h264 It means we've got to go into h265 territory a lot of TVs Devices cameras now are beginning to take on x265, you know, we've been ratified now for over a year Panasonic at the forefront of that and they are definitely with a hybrid Compression h264 and h265 who knows what's going to happen to watch this space So right now I've been filming for nearly 18 minutes and it's not Shutting down. I shouldn't do it as your battery is charged. There's no overheating, right? And your experience none at all Extendable you can actually film away and record as long as you like down to your battery or SD card limit So the great thing is you've got hot swapping as well once one of the SD cards runs out You can drop another card in and I'll swap between them hot swapping them So once it wants your second card is one out pull the top one out change it over simply done You can direct videos to one card if you want and photographs of the other very nice And I was wondering the h265 6k have you used that are you able to use that for that? You can see a 9-minute video of 6k photo mode Yeah, 9 minute being cropped 9 minutes long. I've done it in the dimension resolved I've done a cut showing you what it looks like and it's an amazing 818.7 megapixels, you know what it is at 4 by 3 We're able to each frame so we're able to utilize that photographing mode as a filmmaker To actually record 30 frames per second video Of that I have used and it's Incredible image quality I cure this phenomenal to see the resolution alone Definitely is to be seen if you're filming like architecture landscapes or you're off the detail. I really love the 6k photo mode Really lovely black crushed blacks Fantastic crisp image quality and then the companion scandal crop it rather Down to 4k, which I've done online on my YouTube channel and that you'll love it May I ask you without stopping the video are you able to? Disable the flickering that's going on right now. I think it's correct. I'm not gonna do that. How do you do that? You would have to stop the video Okay, okay a little bit ill at the moment rather than carry all this swapping over But you've got flicker removal it looks at the show let me explain it looks at the shutter 50 shot up, you know a hundred shot 120 and then it will see what kind of lighting or what frequency range You're in that it adapts it to and it goes straight into being able to get rid of that flicker Without you having to go into the angle setting It's really a quick way of getting in there, but you can do it manually and fine-tune it with the angles as well All right, cool. So this is a really exciting camera GH5 and Cool dual XLR looks cool. Yep The XR1 we can control the sound by the manually Mono rather on one channel Copied both mono channels to over the both stereo spectrum or we can crop down to plug in two microphones One close-up for example and You can record at 96 K 24 bits 48 K 24 bits or 48 K 16 bits All good
