Interesting technical read this thread, but here's the bottom line - I have had every Panasonic G series cam apart from the G2 and shot extensively with all of them - you can spend as many hours analysing raw digger data as you like, but in the field, let me tell you that the GH3 is hands-down the best Panasonic G camera so far.

The high ISO, regardless of what any technical analysis with a myriad raw tools may tell you in terms of numeric scores, is the best of any G series cam and as good as the OM-D. In fact, it is better than my Sony SLT-a57 whcih supposedly has the 16MP Sonty wonder sensor. The low ISO images are crisp as anyone would want with good DR - seems to be quite a weak AA filter on this camera (hence the moire issues in video).

By all means continue this interesting technical analysis but I would urge any G cam owners to try a GH3 if it is within your affordable price range - it's a very good camera indeed.
