Don’t know if this one has been posted yet. Very shallow DOF with those lenses but crystal clear, no moire on a stripy shirt. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l14HbVSgT4Q
GREAT VIDEO! Thanks for sharing! Beautiful COLORS! . . . . VERY SHARP!
Especially liked the close-ups of the girl showing her ear-rings . . . SO CLEAR.
Lovely rendering of skin tones.
how would you know what the skin tones are? She’s got make up painted on, including skin lightener, and they are under fluorescent light yikes
Outstanding color and clarity! Simply amazing. The GH4 really looks like the pace-setter for Hybrid cameras.
Wonder if this video was taken with the GH4 mounted to the YAGH unit?
The person who made this preview is a supreme amateur LOL.
First the GH3 does not have an image quality comparable to 5D mark 2, it is better in all most all areas compared to 5D mark 3, with the exception of very high ISO.
Second, the filming very amateurish.
Third, the OLED screen from GH4 has not the same resolution as the screen from GH3
etc, etc
Don’t bother watching it is a a crap!
Lol..Yeah, the GH3 is so amazing, it doesn’t even have a decent all-i codec..moire everywhere..allaising..no info on the screen after 10 sec…crappy efv..no 4:2:2 hdmi out..crappy skin tones..I could go on for the rest of the day. The only thing it has going for it is the 50/60p in 1080p. and that’s that 🙂 Final note since I own both and actually work in this industry: It’s not even comparable to the 5D3, ML or not. One is an industry standard, the other is a consumer camera for people who can’t afford better options out there (not a bad thing, but it’s a very compromised camera and more of a “beta product” when it comes to shooting video)..Now the GH4 might be a different story.
Not everybody is interested in RAW video, and 5D mark 3 is soft as hell in H.264, and with a lower DR than GH3, not to mention the other video functions like real AF, AE, 60p and so on. And by the way, moire in Gh3 is not so bad as you say. I think you did not used the other canon cameras then LOL, compared to Canon 6D, 5D mark 2, all rebels, 60D, 7D, 70D etc, GH3 “is moire free”.
OMG, whoever did the intro had no idea how to handle a camera SMOOTHLY.
The reviewer states that the GH4 replaces the GH3. It is my understanding that Panasonic will continue to market the GH3 which is smart due to the price point difference between the two.
Here’s a link to pre-order the GH4 in France

Panasonic GH4: $1,698.00 USD. DMW-YAGH Interface Unit: $1,998.00.
The DMW-YAGH Interface Unit is more expensive than the camera! I hope
third party companies create a better version (battery issue) and a less
expensive unit.
