Panasonic GH6 video sample gallery

The Lumix GH6 from Panasonic is a video-centric Micro Four Thirds hybrid camera that boasts impressive capabilities from a digital mirrorless system. We took a closer look at some of the video options by shooting multiple clips to highlight some of the compression options, picture profiles, image stabilization modes, dynamic range boost, and low light performance.

• Compression options
• Image stabilization
• Picture profiles
• Dynamic Range Boost
• Low light performance

We encourage you to download the full resolution video files below to avoid the compression artifacts typically present in the YouTube version.

Compression Options

Compression: Both clips were shot at 3840×2160 in 4:2:2 10-bit color. We look at the difference between shooting 400 Mbps, All-I vs 150 Mbps, LongGOP.

• 4K / 400 Mbps / 422 / 10-bit / All-I (60 MB)
• 4k / 150 Mbps / 422 / 10-bit / LongGOP (29 MB)

Image Stabilization

To evaluate image stabilization we shot three clips: a control clip where no stabilization was applied, a second clip where in body and in lens stabilization were turned on, and a third clip where E stabilization and in body stabilization were both engaged.

• No stabilization (37 MB)
• (Dual IS 2: (In body and in lens stabilization) (37 MB)
• E-stabilization and in body stabilization on (59 MB)

Picture Profiles

For picture profiles we take a look at Standard, Cinelike D2, and V-Log.

• Standard – ISO 100 (29 MB)
• Cinelike D2 – ISO 100 (30 MB)
• V-Log – ISO 250 (30 MB)

Dynamic Range Boost

Each clip in this section was shot in V-Log. The control clip where Dynamic Range Boost was off was captured at base ISO 250. For the clip where Dynamic Range Boost was turned on the ISO was set at 2000 (the lowest setting at which it’s available).

• Dynamic Range Boost off – ISO 250 (29 MB)
• Dynamic Range Boost on – ISO 2000 (29 MB)

Low Light Performance

To test low light performance we shot a variety of scenes and ISOs in both the standard picture profile and V-Log. For each clip Dynamic Range Boost was off.

• ISO 4000 – Standard picture profile (29 MB)
• ISO 5000 – Standard picture profile (29 MB)
• ISO 6400 – V-Log (29 MB)
• ISO 6400 – Standard picture profile (29 MB)
• ISO 8000 – Standard picture profile (29 MB)
• ISO 10000 – Standard picture profile (29 MB)
• ISO 12800 – V-Log (29 MB)
