Davide DB 418 Posted September 1, 2020 (edited) Turn boh off and color profile natural at least. P.S Find any thread on GH4 configuration and copy everything Edited September 1, 2020 by Davide DB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bill1946 16 Posted September 1, 2020 Here are the general settings I've been using. Just took the GH5 and nauticam housing to Komodo. Settings will also depend on how much light you have--ambient and video lights. I used the Olympus Pro Fisheye and 12-50mm lens. Color profile: Natural Shutter Angle: 120 not more than 180 ISO: Auto is fine or manual at times Aperture: Manually adjust for depth of field and light Focus: Auto Stabilization: On Recording: 4k 60p White Balance: Custom (I set two white balances on a grey slate. One with ambient light, one with video lights and switch between the two.) Focus peaking: On Exposure peaking: On Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tchakatak 1 Posted September 2, 2020 This is most probably due to the exposure in your blacks Did you try to look at the waveform ? Try to keep your blacks above 10/15 ARI. Also a footage example can be useful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Google on 'Waveform explained'. 0 IRE is complete black, 15 IRE will show some detail in the blacks and less noise, especially if you lift things up in post processing. But GH5 footage is prone to noise, keep the ISO as low and the shutter speed as long as possible if you want to avoid it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When the footage looks grainy is because SNR drops. Signal (i.e. light) missing shows grain 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Davide DB 418 Posted September 5, 2020 Guys, Regarding op question, shooting at 180 or 120 doesn't make any difference except being nominated for a Grammy award:) Please stick to these settings: 90% of Panasonic setting are the same since GH2. As I told you you are using completely wrong settings. Bye Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyway, I find a longer shutterspeed in bad lighting conditions more important than the 180° rule. Especialy under water with slow movements, I prefer to go 360° when shooting in 60p. 1/60s is short enough in those conditions. In 30 p, I will use 180 or 270, depending on light conditions. To Eransalah, read about this stuff so you understand what you are doing, or you will depend on other peoples 'rules' to setup your camera.

Shutter speed is much easier to work out for exposure especially for 25 fps where is an exact multiple Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But in this post 120 and 180 are used in two different ways. That's why it's possible it is confusing to the TS. Edited September 5, 2020 by rollin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
