Looks interesting for GH4 owners but on first glance it is expensive. I don’t have a GH4, an OM-D E-M1 where Olympus is offering tethering free.
Hey, that’s the statue of Sam Houston in Herman Park! Glad to see a GH4 developer in Htown.
Nice. I’m in Houston too, and this company is off the southwest freeway.
I ‘am all for 3rd Party support but this device is totally unnecesary, por starters this is not really tethering , And considering pany cameras have wifi built in for free I don’t see the point
Good point about tethering. 🙂
For time-lapse, doesn’t GH-4 have a built-in command in menu for controlling time-lapse?
yeah but if you watch the video, he explains how the remote gives you at least one advantage – bracketed time-lapses. For HDR. Nice!
Does it mean automatic day-to-night timelapse?
No, it doesn’t. For now thay don’t offer “Bulb Ramping with ISO control”. seems it works only with Canon / Nikon 🙁
Also another nice option “Focus Stacking” is not available for GH4 🙂
so only Timelapse with bracketing … expensive .
Here’s the link to the tethering software https://www.promotesystems.com/products/USB-Tether-for-Lumix.html Cost is $49.00 and it only works with Windows 7, 8 or 8.1. It saves to a Folder for use with Lightroom, Maybe also with Capture One Pro.
for Windows – the world’s most rapidly declining operating system, used by fewer and fewer photographers every frikkin’ hour…. and tethering that employs some 3rd party software thingy that completely denies the fact that other camera manufacturers have made this possible using nothing more than a USB cable and Lightroom or Aperture…
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz nonsense
oh, okay then. which part?
But, sure that remote control rocks… seems they’ve found a way to do things with the camera, that the firmware could easily accomplish if it was just programmed better.
