Since ISO 25600 is extended there is no way you can get the same DR for ISO 12800 as for 25600. DR at 25600 will be about 1 stop less. If your result is different you have severe error in methodology.

we shall see, I sent the data to William Claff (the author of the program)...

And I suspect ISO above 3200 will already be extended so with proper measurement you should get a chart similar to DxO chart for E-PM2. It's the same sensor after all.

Except the nominal ISO for Olympus cameras are not the same as nominal ISO's for Panasonic cameras...

BTW, according to manual you posted, GH3 has no real ISO 125, it's overexposed ISO 200, just like Canon has "ISO 50" on 5DMkII. So, unlike your chart shows, ISO 125 should have the same DR as ISO 200.

may be not... the wording "extended" in manual for ISO125 not necessarily means the same thing as in Canon's case... Olympus nominal ISO200 DxOMark measures as ISO106, if Panasonic stays true to their approach then their ISO200 will be measured around ISO200 and hence ISO125 might as well be ISO125 and not overexposed ISO200.

If ISO 125 was real why would Panasonic call it extended?

you have the link to my raw files - feel free to find an error in how they were shot... I really need a fresh input where is the error if indeed there is an error on my side in how I was shooting.

A french site (photo numerique?) posted RAW files from E-M5 and GH3 and IMO they were exposed similarly at the same settings.

there is no need for IMO - you just need to compare raw histograms to see the situation.
