Panasonic Announces Preview Campaign for DMC-GH4
Panasonic is pleased to announce a preview campaign for the newly announced DMC-GH4 LUMIX interchangeable lens camera, allowing consumers the opportunity to see the new camera 7 weeks before it is released. Three GH4 cameras will be in the UK for this weekend only for the preview campaign to be held exclusively at three stores for three days at each store.
The preview campaign will start on Thursday 13th March, Friday 14th March and Saturday 15th March, from 10-4pm at;
Conns Cameras, 54 Clarendon St, Dublin 2
The previews will continue at the following stores on Friday 14th March, Saturday 15th March and Sunday 16thMarch 2014 from 10-4pm;
Jessops, 129-131 Oxford Street, London, W1D 2HU
Park Cameras, Burgess Hill, not London
Each store will have a working sample of the camera for users to try, as well as a dedicated Panasonic person to talk through product features and answer any questions. Offering a unique opportunity to see the new camera before it is released, the preview campaign provides a great opportunity for those considering purchasing the new camera to come and have a look.
Panasonic’s new LUMIX DMC-GH4 is the ideal interchangeable lens camera for photographers and videographers that want greater mobility and speed, while delivering the professional quality they expect. The most advanced camera yet in Panasonic’s series of LUMIX G cameras, the LUMIX DMC-GH4 boasts stunning image quality and 4K video capability in a compact and durable chassis.
For those consumers looking to purchase the new DMC-GH4, Panasonic is offering a free battery and battery grip worth £315 when they purchase a DMC-GH4 Digital Camera. An excellent addition to the GH4, the DMW-BGGH3E battery grip offers a longer battery life and a comfortable grip and easy handling even in vertical shooting, while the spare battery will be most useful for more shooting enjoyment. The free battery and battery grip is claimed by consumer redemption to Panasonic (http://www.panasonic.co.uk/promotions) until 2nd June 2014.[1]
What better start to the weekend than having a first look at the new and much anticipated DMC-GH4 camera!

“Panasonic is offering a free battery and battery grip worth £315 when they purchase a DMC-GH4 Digital Camera.” Is that due to higher relative UK price or just a very location specific benefit?
Usually it’s a “compensation”… Olympus is doing the same for UK/Eire as well… E-M5 is on promo, you get “free” HLD-6 + 45mm 1.8 lens if you buy the body with the 12-50 lens… 😉
Can you show me the offer ?
put into google: olympus uk promotion
and this will come out first…
the link I posted here was removed so try this way…
I think Panasonic had a bit of a lull in the UK in 2013 and now are focused on coming back with a bang =)
Yes, there is no preorder option in germany. I checked all price comparision sites and it isn’t listed anywhere. But you can allready buy display protection films for the GH4 😉
I think Panasonic need to also do previews in Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Glasgow, Bristol/Cardiff, Newcastle and maybe Belfast…
You can order it here in Germany at Marcotec
Veodosis, I tried to check their site but it shows an error only!

And pelase, use some behaviour when sendin me complaints via contact form. As you see I had my reason why I didn’t post it on 43rumors. There is simply no Gh4 preorder page!
Criticism is not bad behaviour. At least where I come from.
I think I can’t post a link here, but you have to replace the ‘germany’ with ‘shop’ in your link.
Or just google ‘gh4 marcotec germany’
“Is it a joke to you that you want information from the users? Because you’re obviously ignoring it.”
You could have simply nicely asked 🙂
That’s not bad behaviour. That’s being rude and mean. That’s a difference 😉 And Bavarian style btw.
I know. We’re mean folk here in Bavaria.
I’ll pop into Jessops on Oxford Street this weekend to check it out. Hopefully they’ll have a 4K screen set up to view the footage.
GH4… Henry’s Canada had preorders open on Tuesday.. Mine is already ordered. http://www.henrys.com/search/gh4.aspx
Panasonic US would never even imagine such a thing. This US organization seems to think the only important products are TVs, shavers and kitchen appliances.
I was @ Conns Cameras today @ 7pm – lucking the Panasonic guys were still there so I had the GH4 for few minutes… It’s an impressing camera, especially that they had it with the 42.5 1.2 lens… 😉
