GH5: do I have problems turning on my GH5? at DVinfo.net

Adriano Moroni · November 27th, 2021, 06:25 AM

Hi,
I took the GH5 camera from the photo repairer (I only do video) and now I no longer hear the "beep" when I turn it on. It is silent. I don't know if I need to configure something or unfortunately my GH5 wasn't fixed well. And then I also noticed that as soon as I turn it on, I see the Monitor instantly . Maybe I am wrong, but when you turn on the GH5, after the beep, does it not pass around 2-3 seconds before you see the monitor turned on, ready to work?
I HOPE SOMEONE MORE CAN ANSWER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE because otherwise I have to bring it back to the photo repairer and she is not in my city
Thanks for the answer.

My GH5 monitor comes on less than a second after switching on - that is perfectly normal - and it does not beep because I turned it off in the settings menu.
It seems like your custom settings have been lost and you will have to set them up again.
But does the camera record clean video? - that is the most important thing.

Please, could you tell me how I can enable the audio when I turn on my GH5? I don't see that option.

I have a problem with stabilizer. I see on the LCD screen they both are enabled, I mean that of of the lens and that of the camera but if I go into the Menu, I see the stabilizer is disabled. I can't click on the word "Operating mode" (I hope it is the right translation) because it is disabled.
Why? Is that a problem!

I'm thinking to replace GH5 with GH5 II. Do you think I wil get a better video quality? Has GH5 II a better dynamic range than GH5?
