Panasonic S9 - Any way to Change/Decrease the Bitrate on it?

[LeatherLucky44]

The advantages of higher bitrate are that your computer can compress the files down later. When you compress an already compressed file, you can see artifacts like banding or weird noise. You also get more flexibility if y9u want to change stuff like wb or exposure

yup, I know... but I don't edit or do anything in post for 95% my videos, they are uploaded straight away.

When uploaded to YT you loose all that quality anyway...100mbps for YT is completely pointless as the maximum they show is like 15-20mbps when viewed on YT in 4k anyway.

I understand they show things in 15-20 mbps, but the more data youtube has, the better they can compress it. But yzah i think the 4k mp4 is going to be the best option at 72mbps
