Why is it that most the video tests are shot horribly? From Driftwood’s to this. Way to much sloppy shooting to objectively judge what’s being tested. Tripods and focus is a good place to start. Also, how about a slate that lists all the relevant specs as well? Sorry if I come across a bit bitching, but I’ve done hundreds of tests since my film days and as always, you have a control and your variables. Keep one consistent and log all the changes on the other and you can make some sound judgements.

There is also another video camera that can take micro 43 lenses and that is the Blackmagic which is miles better than both the Panasonics mentioned when it comes to image quality. So Panasonic and Olympus have a way to go before reaching the potential of what the format is capable of on video.

To be fair .. in the review of Noam Kroll he compaired the video quality between a hacked GH2 and the GH3 (thus not the GH2 that comes out of the box). You have to take that into account.

For stills this camera is a major improvement. Especially the improvement of noise with high ISO ,the improved Dynamic Range and faster AF.

And not even close where it regards to IQ. This mode isn’t binned down like the rest of the video (at least on GH2) so it doesn’t bring much of an advantage over FullHD.
