Same

I agree, this workaround works fine on the G9. I guess that the GH6 reads the raw file instead of relying on the embedded jpeg inside the raw file.

Well there's a compliment I won't soon forget...many thanks!

I use Adobe Camera RAW in Photoshop, and have done since long before I moved to Panasonic. It has never given me any trouble with the Lumix RAW files. I have done a couple of videos showing my editing process on a few photos. Here's one: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/och6orZ7sKiWdX0.html

No preburst mode. It does have the super high speed burst with electronic shutter, but not the pre burst option.

@@naturesimagephotography Many thanks for your reply confirming the GH6 doesn't have the Pre-Burst, I couldn't find it in the manual. After seeing your excellent "Pre-Burst Mode For Bird Photography" video, I'd really miss that feature. Look forward to seeing more of your inspiring videos about the G9 & the GH6 and your beautiful photographs!

I've just tested DX0.. OMG, its perfect. Dark arts at work here!

I hope so, but the GH6 has lower dynamic range and worst burst rates than the G9. It seems the benefits of this sensor are weighed towards video. Would this sensor make sense for a G9 successor?

@@nickcarneyphotography im sure it would be based on this sensor more aimed towards photos much like the g9 was based on the gh5 sensor

Hi, thanks for the tip. I am aware I could do this, but because I shoot RAW I can do the colour correction pretty easily in post production. So I never really bothered. It would be more of an issue now that I expect to be shooting more video on the GH6. I know almost nothing about editing video, so the fact the colours come out much better straight out of camera is a bonus. Your message has given me a reason to go back and look at the WB settings on the G9 and maybe make some adjustments (i.e. time to stop being so lazy!) so thank you.

@@naturesimagephotography I'm the lazy one Andrew, my goal was to not spend so much time in post processing so I've done my best to get sooc as I want them, I know I cant achieve your results but I'm happy. Another point, Advanced AF Set 1 2 3 4 there's virtually nothing on YT giving comparisons and opinions, only how to set it up. So food for another video maybe?? Thanks for the great videos ,well done.

The G9 is great for video. Note the elephant clip at the start of this video was shot on the G9. The GH6 does shoot at higher quality and has impressive specs, but as a stills photographer I am finding there is a huge learning curve to tackle video. I would say if video is your primary goal, then take a look at the GH6. If you are mainly after still photos with a bit of video thrown in, then you will be very happy with what you get from the G9.

I love the G9 too. I am having fun working with a new camera but my favourite photo of the set is the lion up the tree taken on the G9.

HI Steven, I think it stacks up really well against full frame cameras, thanks to that 25mpx sensor but also the quality of the Leica Panasonic lenses. That is as long as you are close enough to the subject for a good clean shot...I feel the only limitation is that the photos can't take as much cropping as a full-frame image. On the other hand, thanks to the 2x crop factor, the don't need as much cropping.

I really didn't do much video but found it worked well whenever I did. By all reports it is an improvement on the G9. Other brands love to criticize the Lumix focus system but if you are sticking within Panasonic, it seems each new model and each new firmware updates makes it a little better. I haven't had issues with it but only limited use so far.

@@naturesimagephotography Thank you Andrew :) Maybe when you go to the zoo. You can give us a review of your thoughts on the video side.

Cross fingers and toes and hope for the best...

I have the sense that it's a bit better, but t's hard to say as I was never able to shoot a subject, then change lenses to shoot again. So I wasn't able to make a like-for-like comparison. I can say it was great to have the animal detect option available on all AF area modes, not just two. I found this very useful at different times during the tour.

So far I haven't seen any significant improvement, although I haven't exactly been tracking the numbers. I know that if I expect to do a lot of photos in a single day, I'm going to need my spare battery at some point.

@@naturesimagephotography thanks

@@f8haus glad to hear that. I was getting that or close to it with my G9 so the initial count I heard sounded very limited.

It's really only f2.8 when at 12mm. As soon as you start zooming the f-number begins to change. But still a very healthy f-4 at 60mm.

@@naturesimagephotography ok im not sure to get that lens or the 24-70 version all 2.8 ff one do u know anything about the teleconvers as a 200mm lecia would be 400mm f2.8 so if put 2x one that get 800mm F5.6 so if u have that lens and get convertor then u wont need to get the 100-400 what u used ?
