Try resetting your keyboard configuration.

You do that in the browser not on a timeline.

C100 is a more purpose built camcorder first and foremost. The GH5 is a stills camera that happens to have awesome video specs. But they are not the same budget ballpark as you could get two GH5 bodies for the cost of one C100.
Then there’s the lens choices to consider. MFT vs EF etc.
Both are solid choices and it would be more a question of overall budget, what you’re shooting and the glass you might already have available to leverage.

Haven’t heard any major issues- that said it does mess with your config files. So if it roasts a project, you have zero help from official sources.

Yeah that would be a major recompression step / loss in quality, not too mention MPEG2 is not directly editable. Your first instinct to feed directly into a recorder that can capture ProRes is much simpler, least destructive to the already iffy VHS source.
Further questions:
1. Do you agree w/ my assessment about it being preferable to circumvent DV and use card+ProRes? Yes
2. For my anticipated small amount of work, is there any benefit to considering the Intensity Pro 4K at about double the cost? Something I’m not considering WRT future utility or expansion? 4K and beyond is where we’re heading, you’d be future proofing yourself a bit more if not having an immediate need for this particular task.
3. What sort of specs/data rate would you target for archival transcoding in my step #3, keeping in mind that I’d like to retain enough headroom so that I might “re-online” at some later point for editing? Go ProRes 422, LT will introduce a certain amount of visual noise and artifacting for a not that significant amount of space savings.
4. Think ProRes LT will suffice for the intermediate cleanup, or should I use “full” ProRes 422?Noah

Try copy/pasting into a new timeline and be sure to send feedback to Apple.

Without expecting miracles due to garbage-in/garbage-out, yes that workflow sounds fine.

Ha it looks crazy but I wouldn’t be mad to have a Mac with those specs….
