Videoscoping with Panasonic GH3 (1 Viewer)

The weather has not been good since I got the GH3 but I was able to shoot on the scope today out of the window of my flat. I wanted to see how the various video slow motion and fast motion options turned out.
This video shows the effects from normal to slow to fast -

Hi Neil,
Nice to see this thread. Got my Swaro ATX95 a month ago and will pick up a GH3 in a couple of weeks, though will use the TLS adaptor. Look forward to seeing more video here. Test looks quite good, what are your thoughts on the GH3 in the field?

It's a great camera in the hand and works very well with the lenses I have for it - 20mm, 14-45 mm and 100-300 mm. I'm very impressed with the video results. It's nice to have the option of several Custom modes so I can set it up to quickly switch to the ETC Mode ( electronic teleconverter) which I use a lot for video.
It's a little heavy on the scope so will need a balance rail to get good balance.
Have fun.
Neil.
