Tyson’s GX7 – GX8 comparison is excellent. Thorough and witty, as always.
It’s worth the read.
I notice that his GX8 shots have much less fringing/discoloration/AA-artifacts. I wonder why it that.
I’ve noticed the same comparing images between my GX7 and GX8.
That is because they are in the same kind of sensor .
A reborn GX7 with more MPs for GX8 .
No significant ISO & DR improvements over the old one .
Need to skip this ugly bulky stuff .
There is a difference. Cleaner at higher ISOs and what noise there is is much like very fine film grain.
It’s a great upgrade and neither bulky, nor ugly.
Just keep waiting for that perfect camera…
and wait…
and wait…
and wait…
and wait…
No Buy , case closed .
Wait for GX9 .
Please be less stupid. Just this once.
Definitely worth a read in the comparison but still no worth of upgrade on my side .
It just simple as that .
I really enjoyed the comparison as well. For me the EVF is a huge upgrade and makes the GX8 a joy to shoot with even though ergonomically it is not my favorite.
Video maker has a weak personality and lacks the skills to use cameras as is again wishing a “larger sensor is better!” dreams.
At least the 45 cross type AF points are highly believable.
Totally fake imaginary GH5 specs but as @jeffharris says: “Tyson’s GX7 – GX8 comparison is excellent.”.
43rumors please stop giving fake info about the product
well said!!! this site is becoming a joke by the hour…..
I really hope better low light performance is on the list for the G5 along with 10 bit 4:2:2 color. If they do only that it would sell. Maybe through in RAW video and free not paid for Vlog.
Awww, thanks guys. Hey, no singular camera is going to make everyone happy, but I must say that initially I didn’t see the performance bump that the new sensor provides, as clearly until really digging in. Read into that what you will, but I’m impressed and do feel that they (panasonic) have, at the very least, improved just about everything in this new sensor, and that can only mean good things moving forward for the system as a whole. Bring on BSI Organic magic. I agree (mostly) with the criticism on some of the design and ergonomic
changes, but to me, it’s still a better feeling camera in the hand than
any of the EM5s or EM10s (not near the GH line or EM1, or even the GX7’s
grip IMO), but hey, again not everyone is going to be happy.
Thanks Admin, and thanks jeffharris, much appreciated.
Should have also thanked Eno. Thanks, Eno 😉
GX8 sensor? 99.99% probability that it is actually made by Sony.
Well, seeing as Panasonic has spent as much time in development with Fuji as they have, and have their own sensor manufacturing, I’d strongly doubt that, but honestly, I don’t care who makes the sensor as long as it performs and this one does very well for itself in that regard. Where have you heard that Sony was manufacturing the GX8 sensor out of curiosity?
Panasonic does not have their own sensor manufacturing anymore. There is TowerJazz venture, but it is separate from Panasonic.
Okay, a joint enterprise between Panasonic and TowerJazz develop Panasonic’s sensors. I’d still say that Panasonic has their own sensor manufacturing operation firmly in place, even if Tower Semiconductor Ltd. owns 51% of TowerJazz Panasonic Semiconductor Company. While not a controlling stake, Panasonic is still an owner, and developing party in their own sensor fabrication business. More than Oly (or most camera companies not called Sony or Canon) can say about the sensors in their cameras at this point. Not that having Sony, or Canon, or anyone making your sensors for you is a bad thing, just different.
I’d still be very interested in your claim of 99.99% Sony sensor, though. I’ve not yet heard anything to do with Sony on the Panasonic m4/3 side.
Has 43rumors been taken by the Chinese?
WTF was that video about?
Yup because the Chinese are buying out the whole world including farms, mines and producers so it doesn’t surprise me the mods have been swayed by a few Yuan…..
No time at all for this growing arrogant cashed up asian generation…..
Utter poopydoop. Waste of bandwidth.
this guy just wants clicks….another nothing video made by the self important…..lol
Absolutely “proffesional”
