Thanks man, this is awesome content. As a GH5 user I love your channel :)
Quick question, will the G9 output the picture profile you have set over HDMI? I have a chance to pick one up at a good price.
@@photojoseph sick! Thank you! I’m gonna pick it up and add it to my studio. I wanted one more BGH1 but seems like the G9 is pretty legit
Yes it will
How do you turn on the red box when recording on the s1 and s5?
The option is called “Red REC frame indicator”
Thanks for all your videos. I've transitioned from Canon to LUMIX (specifically the S1H) and they have been really helpful. I'm assuming with the Profoto remote update it also allows me to shoot HSS with the S1H, Profoto, & their TTL-O remote. Is that correct?
Excellent!! Thanks for letting us know.
@@photojoseph I just checked with them and they said it can. So that's good news.
Yes, it should, but you'll need to check with Profoto to be sure. I don't have any of those Profoto strobes. I did shoot and direct the video on it though ;-) https://youtu.be/qEwmMaKgd6s
i cant afford a new gh5 with the kit lens. is anyone of you has a gh5 in excellent condition and selling it in affordable price? :')
I just noticed an anomaly with setting EC.

If you adjust ec using the top button, while you adjust EC, the brightness changes but you do not see any resulting changes to zebras. This is also the case if you adjust EC using a Fn button.

However, if you set the top back dial or control dial to adjust EC, the zebras will change as you adjust the EC.

How can a request be submitted to Panasonic to have zebras react in all EC adjustment methods? (Or is there some wisdom to this “madness”)
(Anyone reading this who does't know what John means by "EC", he's referring to "Exposure Compensation"). When you use the top +/– button, you are hiding the rest of the on-screen display, including the zebras, while you make changes. Using the other methods you've described, you are NOT hiding the display, and therefore not the zebras. I would recommend if you use it often, to set the rear thumb dial to exposure compensation. That is, for me, the single most used function on any camera!
Is ‘highlight weighted’ a form of spot metering or center weighted with EC to compensate for highlights.

I have always assumed that ‘multiple’ metering was similar to Canon/Nikon, that is it was ‘center weighted’/‘multi’ metering with EC adjusted based on metering at multiple points and adjusted based on a proprietary “magic sauce”.

Since Panasonic called it highlight weighted I am assuming it is a form of weighting. However, the symbol they use adds confusion that it might be ‘spot metering’.
Hey John, I got some more info back — my explanation is spot on (pun intended!). It is specifically designed for scenes with bright spots where those bright spots are what matters most, like a theater stage.
PhotoJoseph Any chance you could check with Panasonic and clear up this confusion. It would help if we had a better idea what they are doing vs. guessing. I would think they could give some guidance without revealing any proprietary information. Thanks.
I agree the symbol used is confusing. Honestly I wasn't sure how this worked until I looked it up because you asked ;-) The manual describes Highlight Weighted as a "Method used to perform measuring which focuses on the highlighted parts of the screen to prevent overexposure. This is suitable for theatre photography, etc." So I guess the spot symbols is still largely relevant, meaning that it will adjust the meter for a smaller, brightest part of the scene, regardless of where it is. Like an auto-spot meter, that points the meter at the brightest part of the scene, wherever it may be. Multiple metering is like Canon's, Nikon's etc where it evaluates many parts of the scene at once, and not just averages, but intelligently analyzes the scene to try to determine what is most important.
Joe, Thanks for the videos. I just bought the Nikon Z50 for shooting videos and vlogging etc. Do you have any experience with that camera? It seems like the GH5 is one of the most popular choices. I am considering taking this camera back and getting that one? I wish all of these cameras had quicker auto focus in real time! Also I just shot a video in 4K and a lot of folks like Casey Neistat say he uploads in 1080p, but why do I always see a 4K selection link in his videos? Does that mean when you upload in 4K Youtube automatically includes all of the resolutions below the 4K format? Thank you, keep up the good work.
@@photojoseph roger that. Thanks
Yeah I'd definitely start with 1080p. 4K does look better if you're on a a big screen but at least on my channel, half the audience is on phones. (Also, it's Joseph, not Joe, thanks)
@@photojoseph Awesome, Joe, thanks. I need to learn more about cameras as my videos and editing are pretty lackluster. I've learned a lot about 4K today and I'm pretty much done with it. Even to render 4K at 1080 is useless as YouTube kills it with compression regardless of anything you do in post. I'm sticking with 1080p @ 24fps 👍I need to get off all of the camera "auto" settings, they pretty much kill everything I'm trying to do. I saw a million things adjusting in the video I shot today... it was bad. I havent uploaded for a while so I'm gonna try to edit it for a Monday release. Thanks for your help, Joe. Most guys don't respond. Thanks again 🙏
I don't have experience with the Z50, no. The GH5 is a very robust camera with a ton of high end features, check it out closely. As to YouTube and 4K, it will downscale whatever you give it, but it will not upscale. So if some of Casey's videos are showing in 4K, then he uploaded in 4K. That doesn't mean he shot 4K; he could have shot 1080p and then uprezzed to 4K, which would be weird, but it's possible. Then YouTube will automatically render lower resolutions. For example this video was shot and uploaded in 4K (2160p), but you can watch it in 1440, 1080, 720, 480, 360, 240 or 144p. (those are all vertical resolutions, by the way)
cant update firmware 1.4 in my gh5s
No love for the G80/G85? Can you have a word with Panasonic and ask them if they can improve the 28mbps of the 1920x1080 50p and 60p Thanks.
Only the pro cameras get updates like this, sorry.
My slot 1 on GH5 is not working. Can I update from slot 2?
I tried but it says NO VALID PICTURE even though i followed all the right steps till then.
Any solution? Anyone...?
It has to be slot 1. If you go to the bottom of the installation page there’s instructions to do it over USB, however I’m pretty sure you still have to have a card in slot 1. Time to get that slot fixed.
Wow this is such a wealth of information! I'm going to have to update my cameras and come back to continue learning. Thanks for putting this all together in such a great package!
My pleasure, and please do keep coming back!
been looking for a camera upgrade and now i got my eyes on PANASONIC they just make Great Video Cameras! and now i'm stuck on which to buy in the G series since i use a canon for photography and this would be mainly for video
Nice! If you decide to get the GH5, be sure to check out my complete training course at GH5training.com as well. Good luck!
PhotoJoseph Definitely why i'm looking at this now. Just yesterday we were planning on getting the bmpcc6k but just discovered about panasonic and it's staggering! it's like a cheaper bmpcc6k full setup and it'll cost us about $5000+ in total for a fully equipped bmpcc6k.
It comes down to if you need the GH5 features. Anamorphic, shutter angle, unlimited recording time, NTSC/PAL switching, true 24.00fps. If not, get the G9!
And the million dollar question, which camera is the best in video for the money after the update?? GH5 or G9? Asking because I need a reason to not buy a GH5... 😅
Than Parm oh yeah, unlimited recording, I left that off!! After 10 minutes at 4k60 the G9 will stop. You can start right away again but if you do that enough times on a hot day it will shut down. The GH5 will run all day in intense heat — search YouTube videos for evidence of that! The G9 records up to 29:29 in other formats before stopping; that’s a tax issue (google it if you’re unfamiliar)
@@photojoseph thank you for your feedback! I have one more question if you don't mind. The G9 has a 10min limit in 4K. That means the video stops every 10min and continues automatically with 10min clips, or you need to press the record button every time it stops?
GH5 still has features the G9 does not (DCI, Anamorphic, NTSC/PAL switching, true 24.00fps, shutter angle control), but if you don’t need those then the G9 is the way to go.
After updating my GH5, I found that the auto focus improved--but now I am getting motion blur in Manual Mode.
Then your shutter speed/angle must have changed
I have been rocking the G9 for several years now for some hybrid photo/video work and was longing for more video features, this will work great, going to update the firmware now! Thanks for sharing!
Awesome!
What are your top tips for GH5 lenses? Think travel.
• 15/1.7 https://geni.us/3KtyCz
• 25/0.95 speedmaster (if you don’t mind manual focus) https://geni.us/rPpGbZn or the 25/1.4 https://geni.us/ww4A6LA
• 42.5mm/1.2 if you can afford it https://geni.us/h2UL or the 42.5/1.7 if not https://geni.us/0uinjND (there is a noticeable difference in sharpness other than the half-stop difference).
Hello Birdman! :D
Thanks for the video. Any chance G85 will get a similar update?
Not likely.
I don't get why the Ultra Resolution Mode for Photos couldn't enter on the GH5 update. Aren't they both micro four-thirds with moving sensors? I wish they added that to the GH5 as well.
Processing technology. The GH5S and G9 are a generation ahead.
I think going forth for most people, the G9 is the better buy over the GH5. Makes me wonder if the G series might take over much of the GH roll and the GH will go back to non stabilized more video focused video machine like the GH5s. So the GH6 will be an upgrade to the GH5s, and the G10 will be an upgrade to the GH5?
I was mentioning on another forum about the high res improvements in relation to motion/moving subjects in the image. This was one response I received " it works by substituting parts from a standard res shot, so if there's lots of movement you basically lose any resolution advantage". Can you advise if this is the case at what stage does "lots" of movement cause the resolution advantage to be lost?
Yes that’s right. If the scene is static (i.e. a studio photo) then just use mode 1. But if there’s any chance of movement, use mode 2. Which is usually going to be the right choice.
@@photojoseph So the new mode 2 of the high res option still requires a static image to get the most out of the resolution. Thanks for the response 👍
That is correct. If there’s movement (i.e. leaves moving) then the camera can’t piece together parts from multiple exposures because they won’t match / line-up. So instead of having bizarre shadow/glitchy images where things moved, wherever there was motion you’ll have scaled-up pixels. Since it’s handled on a virtually pixel-by-pixel basis, it’s pretty hard to spot. The fewer moving portions of the scene you have, the harder it’d be to notice. If everything is moving… well, then the scene isn’t a candidate for high resolution mode 😉
Joseph thanks, I have a gh5 for about 2 years and never update it. It’s enough updating with the last version of firmware or do I have to get all the updates to get the whole package. Sorry for my ignorance.
Thanks Joseph for your help and great video!
Just one update is needed
I am using .Mov format now to record with my G9.
Guess what... .MOV is an Apple codec but... Apple Quicktime is nog able to open te files !

OMG, Apple. What has become of you ? Apple is becoming Microsoft !
powermichiel I tweeted the question… let’s see what people say: https://twitter.com/photojoseph/status/1198311675172012032?s=21
@@photojoseph Hi !
No, i am not on Catalina yet. Since the latest iOS-13-email-debacle i have not had the courage to update MacOS yet.
For quick playback i am using VLC which i highly recommend because it plays back anything you throw at it.
Fortunately FCPX plays it without any hiccups. So i am using VLC to determine which clips are worth importing into FCPX and after importing you are good to go and edit away.
QuickTime can’t read the 10-bit files. It sucks. You have to open those in an NLE. But question for you — are you on Catalina? I haven’t updated my editing system so I can’t check but I’m hoping they added 10-bit support finally.
GH5: HIghlight-weighted metering is a great addition ! Very useful.
Thank you for the detailed update! I don't think there's anything in this update that really helps the GH5, for how I use it at least, but it's good to know Panasonic still cares!
The firmware updates are so good, I forgive the PITA process to activate V-Log L and waveform.
haha glad to hear that!
The most comprehensive, informative and easy to follow video on this subject I've found. Thanks, I now get it ... well at least I'm facing the right direction! Thanks from a grateful G9 user.
My pleasure!
So now I'm very confused Friday I'm buying the the new camera what advise me Gh5 or G9 ? I like take photos and make videos . In Italy Gh5 it's 1250 euro with kit lens and G9 1100 with kit lens... I'm your opinion what's the best in this moment :)
Fantastik Firmwares G9, Thanks Panasonic The BEST !
Also, what is considered the best Atomos external recorder for the GH5 now?
Again, no “best”; they have different features you may or may not need. Personally I’d go for the V right now.
Hey Joseph, assuming you’re working on new videos covering using the updated features of these cameras. Could you please cover using the G9’s additional VFR functions as I’m struggling to access them as they’re greyed out in the menu. Can’t seem to find any info on what I need to do to make that menu available.

Cheers
Make sure you’re in MOV mode then chose mode a format that lists “VFR available”
Is it still recommended that you turn focus to manual on the GH5, then use the rear focus (AE lock) button to focus in on your subject, checking the focus peaking, before recording?
@@photojoseph Understood. But from your Lynda/LinkedIn learning video it seemed like the process I posted above was the best way to stop the hunting issues on relatively stationary subjects.
There is no best. Just whatever works for the situation
WTF ! Used Firefox to try it again. It's there ! WTF, Apple Safari ?!?!?!
Cache issue then. Glad you found it!
Nice but... It's the 20th now and it is still not available. Tried yesterday as well. Something wrong with the update ?
Excellent updates. Panasonic is doing a great job.
G9 got a loot better indeed, but the purpose of the GH5 and the G9 is still very different even after the update - GH5 will never do still pics as the G9 and the g9 will never (unless they change in the next update) do videos as the GH5 - Unlimited recording, C4K time and the 10-bit 400Mbs are the deal breakers for filmmakers
You got it. The G9 isn’t a filmmakers camera. The GH5 is actually great for stills though, TBH. That was my main stills camera before the G9 came out.
I've done some initial testing with this FW upgrade and I'm wrapped. Will be shooting my next paid gig with the G9 in 5K video using the 6K photo mode. From that I will extract stills, 1:1 insta-videos, 17:9 videos for everything else. The photos may not be RAW, but if I know what I am doing, I can get them in range enough for 10bit 4:2:2 to be enough and not have to be pushed too far.

This is it. We have the ideal hybrid solution here.

The natural upgrade path is the S1H. Can't lose.
The G9 is now a sub-$1K camera. Currently being sold at places like Adorama and Amazon for US$997
What a beast... Panasonic is WINNING WINNING WINNING in my view.... especially for newbie freelancers cutting their teeth.
Thanks Again, wish I could like more than once. Just finished my the upgrade on my G9.
Went to update the firmware for my GH5 but listed under the Version 2.6 was Version 2.5? Today is Nov. 19 2019?
Just learned about this today at a shop! Now strongly considering the S1
On the G9 ...Can I jump from version 1.2 to version 2.0 without doing version 1.3. ?
@@photojoseph Thank you.
Yes
Hi, i have an issue with the GH5s firmware when i active the " [AF-ON: Near Shift] and [AF-ON: Far Shift] functions have been added. [AF-ON: Near Shift] preferably focuses on a subject nearby while [AF-ON: Far Shift] preferably focuses on a subject far away." in a functions after i can't able remove hold press the same function because it try to focus. I tried to switch to manual focus also, but it doesn't work. Second Issue i can't see the peaking in autofocus.
OK , so its 0918 in the morn of the 19th 2019, and no sign of the download ..although 2.6 has been added to the firmware page there is still no 2.6 download. Seeing as you have a secret key to the kingdom of Lumixalia can you give 'em a kick outta bed to get them working . Second cup of joe on the way too !!
S nice!
@@photojoseph Thanks but it wasn't that . All installed now and looks good. Panasonic UK had a server tick that delayed the issue. A short call to Pan Uk and the support sent me a clean link. Just another reason why In Lumix I Trust
Try clearing browser cache.
It’s up, others are installing it. I’ll be doing a video this morning.
I just did some S1 firmware v1.2 and 1.3 noise tests. It appears that the new 1.3 firmware ADDS more noise at every ISO mark that the older 1.2 did NOT have. The older V1.2 seems to be significantly CLEANER than 1.3. Looking further into this....beware of v1.3 until this can be sorted out.
Hey Joseph! Great video ! Thanks for this update. I am thinking about getting a G9 but I ask myself if there are limits (in contradiction to a GH5/s) when connecting to a Atomos Ninja V or Inferno Recorder ?
When using HDMI Output 60fps, 4:2:2 10 bit—IS the recording time unlimited for G9? (Instead if 10 min internal?)
Tony Babarino yes the G9 will output indefinitely (until it runs out of power but you can put it on an AC adapter), and yes of course the G9 has IBIS. Watch the comparison portion of this video; it’s better than the GH5’s IBIS.
@@photojoseph So if the external recorder can record for 1 full hour, the G9 can keep going for the 1 full hour? Also, does the G9 NOT have IBIS?
That’s up to the external recorder at that point. The camera is just outputting non stop.
How does this affect AF performance with adapted EF mount lenses?
Nothing listed so I wouldn’t expect any changes. Those would, I think, have to come from the adapter manufacturer.
You're a wealth of info. But sadly, this doesn't seem like they've changed much for the GH5. Good news for G9 owners though. Thanks for the website info. This is TLDR for GH5 owners, insert Sad Face here.
Great news thanks!
Could someone give precise details/specs regarding the .MOV video for the G9 for particularly Pal here in Australia?
Thanks.
Once it’s shipping…
