Hmm, the results are clearly better on the GH3 on stock. But that is after all the whole point of releasing an updated model. However… I would love to see a comparison of a Hacked GH2 running a high bit Driftwood VS a Stock GH3. I’m sure if and when they hack the GH3 it too will then beat even a hacked GH2, but for now I’d like to see a hacked GH2 battle it out with a Stock GH3.
Both seem really similar. BUT i dont think the creator should have used AutoWB for both. They should have set it to a standard day light, fluorencent bulb for comparison.
Because its Auto we cant actual how the sensor reads colour. the GH2 and GH3 could have selected two completely different settings.
Or what have been really good is if they standardized to the same white card.
Any thoughts?
@Nathan I hear you. I always feel that comparison tests should be shot in full manual anyway so I do agree with you on that one. Staying away from auto anything when shooting is typically best practice.
Thanks for sharing! I hope someone learns something from that comment. You begin to understand your camera’s settings better as well when you manually plug in your settings.
