Hi Boris,
First thank you for all tests that you made for us and of course for yourself.
Could you tell me (us) in short what mode (fps, resolution) you can get from GH3 out with HDMI attach. Is there some limitation compare to GH2?
Can you view both mode (wifi & HDMI) on screen (wifi phone & HDMI monitor) at the same time. Use wifi (for video settings) and HDMI for recording.
Thanks.

It would be great but at the moment you want to film in 720 50p, a downlink is not a option. No matter if Zenmuse or a conventional HDMI adapter the Gh2 switches into 50I/60I 1080. Thats my main concern !

Exactly, and also 24p is not suitable for many aerial works and 25p is not even a close to the level of quality of 24p in GH2. And 720p is... well 720p even though it's amazing and better than most 1080p i've seen from DSLR:s. I still love my GH2 with Driftwoods cluster @720p50 but after playing couple of days with GH3 now i'm really impressed with it. Possibility to turn off contrast and sharpness + all the advantages of new features are making it a real player in the game. And to be honest i don't really get it what some guys (mostly guys who has not buyed GH3 yet) says it does not have "cinematic" look like GH2 have. Cinematic look is a result of many factors, i don't see it much less cinematic looking than GH2. GH2 did not look cinematic at all when it came out but after hacking it have been cult camera. I think already without any hack GH3 beats all competitors and many more but after Vitality comes out with a hack it'll open new doors again.
OK OK. I gotta chime in here. This whole "cinematic" look thing. Wouldnt it be bad if ALL your footage looked cinematic out of the camera without setting it that way? I would rather have neutral non compressed footage that I run through Looks than having an effect added out of the camera. Am I missing something here?
