But keep in mind that MATH is not everything. As reported by Slashcam and Osamu there seems to be already a 10Bit advantage with the current 150Mb/s compression. And this is and interesting test image by Randy Wheeler:
The external output on the GH4 doesn’t get compromised as shown in this pic so I would assume that the GH5 output won’t get compromised either:
GH5 at Amazon, BHphoto, Adorama and Panasonic US. In EU at Amazon.de, Cyberport.de and ParkCamera.
