So you didnt shoot and compare RAW because in your words "It wouldn't be a fair comparison." Are you kidding? Isnt that the point of a comparison? To compare each cameras strengths, especially those strengths that one has well above the other. You compared the GH5s photography over the BMPCC4K, surely that is not a fair comparison too since the GH5s is primarily a stills camera??? No consistency and your shot comparisons are all over the place with framing and white balance.
@Ryan-Payne6 жыл бұрын
He mentions that the black magic is a clear winner if you want a raw workflow. It's automatically a better image that the GH5s can't achieve, but comes with workflow and hard drive space limitations. As for the photo capabilities he mentions those prior to the comparison as an additional thing to consider then goes on to compare the video aspect of the cameras. To me the pocket 4k image is clearly better but the GH5s' functionality wins me over for being a camera that I'd own and use for any application. I'd rather rent something for short films.

I find the BMPCC4K colours and tones far more pleasing. I do find it extremely unforgiving and best suited to controlled environments, especially in ProRes. However in RAW, while it's more work later (for small/unimportant projects I even just do a basic re-encode to a smaller format), it really isn't that much harder to work with once you have a decent workflow down as generally you can copy the RAW grades to other clips as the correction before coloring and I find it to be far more forgiving. The only facet I consider the GH5 to be superior is the quick turnaround and more manageable files/sizes. I shoot with both on a team and without the budget for 10's of hard drives a month I can't keep raw files, so the extra step of re-encoding for archive for me as opposed to just archiving the off camera GH5 filesas is can be a slight hindrance at times.

I own both cameras and can speak retrospectively on both without being selective as he’s done in this case. However his summaries are with faults of a high condemnation with steers more to giving the Gh5S the greater of esteem. Without placing them in the same situations during comparisons and similar control variants, then sadly the ideation to submit true life conclusions is bereft with errors.

For me at the moment raw is not important because time is money and post would take at least double the time for me. Also the ergonomics to me matter a lot and there the Pocket Camera is great to hold in the hand but a pain to shoot with lacking both a flippable screen and a evf. I really like both Blackmagic and Panasonic because of they do not cripple their products and give us what we want. So no bias here. On the contrary the GH5s was. slightly slightly better in iso 3200 and 6400 but it was so little so I decided not to mention it and because it can vary depending on how accurate you nail your exposure.

@@ArberBaqaj Hi Arber! Great to hear back from you. I think the crux of the matter isn't your personal taste (everybody has different tastes and preferences and that's perfectly fine), but I think it's that viewers click on your video because of its title "Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K vs Panasonic GH5s - lowlight, sharpness and color review and test" with the assumption that there will be a unbiased comparison using the scientific method (i.e. independent/dependent variables & controls). However, in a controlled environment (like I said before), you can't selectively choose NOT to include RAW (despite your disposition towards ProRes). Otherwise, it's not exactly a good comparison. The control of the experiment should be the subject you are filming, the independent variables should be VLOG versus RAW, and the dependent variable should be image quality. It's because of this skewed "comparison" that viewers are questioning the test's credibility. Again, this is irrespective of your own personal tastes and preferences (i.e. ProRes). Anyway, those are my two cents about why it seems many have a bone to pick with this video. Hope it helps. Have an A1 day!

Another good video. As I consider buying one of these cams, the sharpness of the GH5s is actually a big downside, for one very important reason... you can't turn OFF the sharpening effect the camera is applying. You can turn DOWN sharpening, but CANNOT turn it OFF. The BMPCC4K does not apply sharpening in-camera (unless you want it to). That gives you a more flexible file. I DO love sharp 4K video... but it looks like video, especially on skin. For cinematic applications, I would NOT want sharpening, and unfortunately that's just not an option on the GH5s. But it does have so many other things going for it...

Plus the Gh5S has less pixels than the Gh5, only slightly, on the same size sensor. Still enough pixels for 4k, but not a bunch more like you would want for photography specifically. Less pixels on the same size sensor means that each pixel is bigger and gather more light which is better for low light and video in general. This is called the pixel pitch and the pixel density. You can find websites comparing different sensors against each other and their respective pixel pitch.

Thanks for the comparison Arber! You have basically confirmed my belief that both cameras obviously produce a lovely image when a skilled cameraman uses either tool! I would guess that there would be more variation in image quality in regards to quality of the lenses used, meaning that if one already owned the GH5s and felt like upgrading to squeeze out that little extra subjective image quality, it would probably be just as viable buying the next level of lenses rather than buying the BMP4K. I feel that these cameras are in the same league so the differentiating factors will be how you light, how you lens each camera and finally how good your grading skills with your chosen software are. Also, as Atomos have shown that Apple ProRes Raw can work over HDMI 2 with the Nikon Z6, I would be surprised if they did not team up with Panasonic this year to give us that upgrade to the GH5 and GH5s, then the difference in image quality would be even smaller!🙏🏾

You are very right and I like how you think! Agree totally. Prores raw on the gh5, now that would be an upgrade!

What did I just watch? How's it fair to compare photographic features but not different codecs on video? Other one is still camera and the other is video camera. It's like comparing a van to hatchback and say "hatchback is better because it has 5 seats. It's unfair to compare the amount of stuff I can fit in the compartment because other one is a van." There's nothing subjective to what comes to video quality. 12bit RAW vs 10bit ALL-I the difference is night and day.
@eliteextremophile88955 жыл бұрын
There's one clear and simple difference in these cameras. Other one is good all-around camera and the other one is a cinema camera. If you have the money for ARRI and you're going to vlog and photograph, maybe take your money to Leica or Hasselblad.

@JodyBruchon3 жыл бұрын
Dynamic range doesn't matter at all unless you have a high-contrast scene. In other words, it only matters when it's a problem. More dynamic range isn't always useful, especially if it comes at an expense. Shooting log/flat profiles with 8-bit output files is a great way to ruin your colors in your midtones, for example, but if that 1/2 stop of DR is all that matters even if the colors get wrecked...go for it.

@ArberBaqaj6 жыл бұрын
Well for me it is quite a difference, just the size of raw is huge with cdng, and if you look at compressed raw you have to go with resolve, and for that’s a big deal, or then transcoding afterwords, and my computer doesn’t play it good either, with prores I can start directly and edit everything smoothly:)

File sizes are supposed to be large. There is no way around getting good quality. Simply, the smaller the file size, the lower the quality. Cinema DNG is not even uncompressed whereas Arri gives you uncompressed RAW.
@GarethStack6 жыл бұрын
I'm not sure this is a meaningful comparison at all. Given that the BMPCC4K costs about the same as a used GH5, while the GH5s is close to double the price. It's like comparing an A7iii to an Ursa mini pro. Have you come across any issues with the red channel on the camera? I've heard reports it's much too hot with the current colour science and blows out irrecoverably on things like rear headlamps.

Arber Baqaj I have a GH5s and use it daily. When I got to your skin tones part and you had the highlights blown out on both cameras, in a studio environment, I had to quit watching. I'm not sure what you're going for. Are you just applying a lut and not making any other adjustments?

This is absolutely Not the best comparison of the two cameras. Please do your homework (at least on how to obtain proper exposure) before you film the video. The dynamic range of the two cameras are very comparable & they both shoot with same codecs & settings. Even if you didn't want to use RAW, you could have done an apples to apples but you blew the exposure of the better camera EVERY TIME

I shoot in what ever I choose to shoot in. That is my choice. I love ProRes as Ive stated and just because you shoot raw that doesn't fix everything. As I said in the video, for some things raw is better in every way. But for my workflow I prefer shooting in ProRes. This might change when Braw is available.

you have that choice, but you are ignoring that you did not use the Black Magic the way it was meant to be used. Not meant to be a hybrid photo / vlog camera. And even that is OK but your presenting it as a fair comparison and its not. Shoot on the GH5 like you would the BM and you will find the GH5 falls short trying to be the BM
