Editing GH4 Footage on Premiere Pro CC at DVinfo.net

Vishal Jadhav · March 11th, 2015, 11:10 AM

I am not sure if this is the right forum to ask this or should i be on NLE

Currently i use a Windows machine to edit my GH4 footage.

On my HD Dell monitor the Raw footage appears nice without any aritifacts, however if i put it to editing in Premiere pro there appears to be some artifacts like waves or a lossy footage.
80% of footage is 4K downscaled to 1080 P

My doubt is that i am not setting up Premiere Pro rightly .

Is it possible.

i have attached my sequence settings to this.

Need help

make sure you are viewing the timeline at full resolution, Premiere has options to view footage at Full, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8 and 1/16 of the file size the options can be set from a drop down list on the preview window.

Vincent,

I am viewing all at full resolution as i usually do.

One bad thing i find is if i play the video out of cam on my monitor it has no issues in playing and looks flawless, however if same is imported into CC and exported out to HD it has loss in quality no matter what quality i render it out, hence my thought is that i am screwing up the import process or setting up my CC in a bad way.

I am pretty happy with the colours that GH4 gives and i need only to assemble the videos to edit them, however i find it very strange that this quality loss is seen, even with a 4K video down scaled into HD this is a issue, which technically should not happen.
Getting just too confused .
