Hi,
I would say the GH2.
The GH2’s 720p 60p, even un hacked, looks better than any canon cameras in 1080p. So hacked it could look even better !
And if you had to choose in between the a57 and a65, take the a57.
It’s cheaper and it has better low-light performance.
I’ve hesitated as well, but I went for the GH2, and I don’t regret it !
As for the autofocus, it’s about the same.
Look ar my own post :

I went for the GH2.
I was going for the 650D at first, then went to the Sony a57, then to the GH2.
I found out that even professionals like Philip Bloom, Atiba Evans and much more use the GH2, and some even use it for TV ads !

Don’t take the 650D if you want a quick autofocus (to film quick moving subjects), because even with the STM lens, it is really slow and hesitating. And even if you want to do manual focus, it’s easier with the GH2, because it has focus assist (zooms in more to help you focus), and you can also focus with the touchscreen (geeat feature). And as for the quality, the un-hacked GHGH2 has a better quality in 720p than any canons in 1080p (moire, aliasing…).

So once hacked, it’s a war fighting machine, capable of having better quality than RED cameras (GH2 -> less than 800$ RED -> more than 5000$).

Hacked, you can change from PAL to NTSC and vice versa DIRECTLY into the camera, and the best hack for now can make you go up to 244mbits ! Some people upscale it to 4k ! And I don’t think the hack stops the guarantee ! So no reason to not hack it !
And there’s a wider choice of lens, and you can buy an adapter to use your old lens (if you have any). I think it’s the best DSLR for video, with the GH1 and GH3, of course.
So in order :
GH2 better than > Sony a57 better than > 650d (or t4i)

Hi,
I have a Asus Laptop with a GeForce GTX 670M,
and it won’t work, is it because it’s on a laptop and
or is it because it’s 670M and not 670 ?

Thank you.

Hello,
I shot a film on a SONY HDR CX115e, in 50 fps.
I’ve seen that in after effects, if I put 50 fps in the comp settings,
and preview it at 25fps, it shows me a smooth slow motion.
I’d like to know if it’s possible to keep it in slow motion,
ind what render settings I have to use to keep it.
Thank you
