Newsshooter reports that renowned camera tester Alan Roberts has released his EBU assessment of the Panasonic GH5s. What is that EBU test? Newsshooter explains:
To help maintain acceptable levels of quality in European (U)HDTV programme-making, the EBU has specified a series of measurements that will reveal a camera’s ability to produce high-quality television pictures.
The conclusion:
The GH5s has passed the European Broadcasting Union R.118 camera tests, and is approved by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) for high definition content acquisition!

Prem: “This is not a rumor but more so a Travel Film I shot during my recent Japan trip. I was wondering if you want to share it with your viewers. The link is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PKlJeYEcv4.“
Dpreview interviewed Panasonic Imaging Product Manager Sean Robinson. There are a lot of insights about the G9 and GH5s development. One curious note is that Panasonic also monitors forums and facebook groups for feedback and ideas:
We definitely don’t ignore any feedback, from anyone. It’s not always like an official interview, where we sit down and talk to someone 1:1, we’re also constantly scouring forums and Facebook groups, and when someone calls into our call center or messages us on Twitter for example, all of that information is captured. It’s collated weekly, and reported back to our team in Japan.
Sean is also member of our G9 and GH5/GHs facebook groups. So be sure to join us there and give your feedback!
