More time to add V-log to the build now.
Still no V-Log? I hope adding V-Log is the reason for the postponement…
Maybe…but I think they couldn’t announce it now. Last rumors told us that V-log was “on test”…maybe they are postponing it just to wait results from that test
Still no sign of fixing the unreliable autofocus in 4k video mode. I think Panasonic designed the GH4 for 4K recording without any resources left for an appropriate autofocus. Otherwise I’m pretty sure they would have fixed it with a new firmware.
It’s a shame that Panasonic made this design flaw. Samsung got it right won their first try with the Nx1.
… Samsung got it right ON their first try …
My GH5 wish list
1. multi aspect
2. C4K@25/50p h.265
3. UHS-II and m.2@NVMe slot for such ssd drives.
4. better viewfinder
5. Cine .dng.
One more piece of evidence pointing towards the obvious truth: that m4/3 lies on its death bed.
somebody smell troll?
I have the Sony a6000. Is the GH4 worth the upgrade?
depend on what you want and what you shoot, GH4 is more towards video.
I’d say it’s “also” towards video – the stills performance is amazing, by far the best MFT stills camera, But yeah, also the best 4K video camera for the money. Everyone talks about the GH4’s video capabilities like it wasn’t also an amazing photo machine 🙂
If you are mostly interested in taking pictures there is no need to upgrade, but if you are serious about video, Gh4 is one heck of a 4K camera! Nothing get’s close to it in it’s price range.
GIMME THAT VLOG PANASONIC!!!!!
