I think the gh3 on the vivid profile, and the hvx produce the best looking footage out any other consumer cameras ive seen. What do you guys think?

I guess the compression might be a bit better with the hacked gh2, but I feel like they're pretty much the exact same the gh3 just has 1080p which is faily noticeable I think. This video does look incredibly beautiful though, barely looks compressed at all and actually i really cant tell much of a difference between 720 and 1080 here

because that's 1080 dude haha, the guy (crutchkiller I think?) said he ramped up the shutter speed on the 1080 24p on the gh2 for that video

god damn this video looks so fucking beautiful, how does this video seem to have no compression at all? Is it the plus membership? The color grading software? Holy cow

Yea, only downsides to the gh2 were no 60p at 1080, which I didn't mind much at all, I prefer 24 most of the time. My gh2 also had the most extreme shift to green when I was shooting in lowlight. I was shooting on nothing but canon fd primes with the gh2, and I love that look.
