Reasons one could have for buying a GH3 over a D7100

2a) Broadcast quality movie codec


That is interesting. I always thought that broadcast quality is 18 mb/sec or lower. In the case of Cable it is MUCH MUCH lower. That is where the original 18 mb/sec spec for m4/3s video came from.

I'm sure I've heard that for AVCHD footage 50mbps is the low end cutoff for what the BBC will accept (not sure about others, but seeing AFAIK the BBC is still one of the biggest/richest, if not the biggest/richest, broadcasting company around it isn't a bad benchmark to aim for). I think for All-I it might be over 100mbps, for which the GH3 clearly falls short, but I'm not so sure on that one.
