still no V-log 🙁
Pathetic! I thought they might have given it us FFS considering the NX1 has it!! disgrace.
calm down, its not like you’re gonna need the Vlog to make “awesome” videos.. i barely see well created videos done with a GH4.. the ones that are created well, rely on talent and lenses.
Only for the YAGH ? Seriously ?
no
No, there is an Atomos compatibility firmware update for both the GH4 and the YAGH units, so you can use it with or without the YAGH unit.
Still worthwhile just for #4 and #5 even if you’re not using an external recorder.
Oh yes, fantastic. Really fantastic !
Utter w@nk that Panasonic! utter wa.nk! Samsung will piss all over you with the NX1!
Hey troll. You wouldn’t make a dingleberry on Philip Bloom’s butt. Furthermore, you couldn’t stick your finger in your own butt with 9 hands, let alone produce a video.
“you couldn’t stick your finger in your own butt”
Wrong, I do that all the time. It helps me relax.
He meant yours, not your mothers.
STFU dingleberry!
The troll is posting his trash under my nick, the same way he posted his idiotic drivel under the guise of Philip Bloom.
The jerk trying frantically to stick his finger in his own butt does NOT speak for me. He is incapable of polite social speech and his mother never taught him any manners. I hope she has to live in the same dwelling with her miserable pathetic wretch of an offspring.
BTW I up-voted your post. It’s easily the best of the morning!

How rude, does yer mum know that?
You seem to sum up most GH4 owners pal…..
Seems again they cripple or hold back on features only to entice the mugs to buy the next version, the GH5.
No thanks. Tired of the BS.
What the heck are you referring to ? The VLog profile ?
The VLog profile is being worked on, and Panasonic aren’t going to release it until it’s ready. With any luck we will have VLog before NAB 2015. ( I knew that this was going to be an Atomos compatibility release and did not expect anything else )
Who the heck are you, a Panasonic staff wannabe????
we all know the real philip bloom would never use a GH4 or GH5 for that matter, hes too much of a sony/canon fanboy cunt.
I’m actually curious what you’re referring to here.
I’m actually curious what you’re doing here.
I’m here asking questions about this camera. You mentioned that it’s crippled, and I’m wondering how it’s crippled? I’m looking at purchasing a GH4, it seems like a great camera and it meets my needs, but you think it’s crippled. How so, so I know before I buy.
Ask GH4 Eva, he seems to be the resident knowall and should be able to answer your queries mate.
Panasonic have also released update for the X35-100 H-HS35100 to ver.1.2 wef 21/01/2015
Did you have no rumors about upcoming update?
ERRR!!! NO!!!!
Look what you could have won…..

As a Panasonic fan I do worry about where they are going: they had the lead in 4k but they need better sensor tech now to keep up with all the FF and APSC sensors coming out or start making some faster lenses with OSS. F2.8 is not enough.
We have the 42.5mm f/1.2 with O.I.S., and more lenses should follow if people are prepared to pay professional prices. ( same goes for Olympus PRO lenses )
Nice update. Here are the ones that I was happy to see.
-4K/23.98p/100Mbps mode is added in MP4 video recording.
-The upper limit of the ISO sensitivity can be
set in the menu of ISO sensitivity setting and emission amount of flash
light can be adjusted in the menu of exposure compensation.
-Focusing performance of 1-area AF in video recording is improved.
-Tracking performance of tracking AF when used with the interchangeable lens H-FS14140 is improved.
How’s this “big”? Looks like some small to at most medium sized improvements.
It’s a big deal for people who want to shoot 10-bit 4:2:2 with an external 4K recorder, for the rest of us it’s an incremental upgrade. V-log will be a much bigger deal when it’s released.
Don’t hold your breathe for V-Log. Panasonic won’t release it as a firmware upgrade for the GH4.
why on earth are there so many people (trolls) that hate MFT that 1) visit this site 2) bother to comment. Why don’t you guys just sod off to whatever forum for whatever camera you like and bathe in each other’s warm piss? I bet you haven’t considered that your visits are counting as hits which make the site more attractive to advertisers, and every time you visit, you’re helping the site’s admin make money through banner ads? So yeah, I’d like to say thanks, but I’d also like to be able to discuss camera and lens tech with my fellow users without having to slap all you pale pimpled momma’s basement-dwelling potato-chip and soda-pop devouring teenage f**kwits around.
Been rejected again huh? It happens to geeks.
Aawww poor troll, was it hard for you to understand all the big words? I mean, that must be why you thought this had any relation to your personal problems.
Dazzling rebuttal.
Get a life troll
I’m impressed! Not only can you type (though you can’t use punctuation and have only capitalised the word ‘Get’ because your commenting software does this for you automatically), you have learned to use words instead of grunts. Tell me, how long have you had internet in the village of Buttshart, Nebrahoma?
