I'm still shooting low budget full feature films with my GH4. I just bought it on 2020 after loosing my Canon 7D with a 5 lens set while on location to shoot a movie. And I love it!
@@RandomRotation stolen. i Ended up using an old Iphone SE to shoot that movie until I got Covid and went to hospital for two months. Another at home and returned to filmmaking, now with a GH4 and I love it!
If you hook up a gh4 to the image app on an ipad, activate the zoom function on the ipad settings, you can then enlarge the monitor window to fill the whole ipad screen using three fingers, basically turning the ipad into a full screen monitor.
I'm shooting with GH4 and I'm sticking to it. So far it seems like none of newer Lumixes are vastly better in lowlight and the other thing I would need is in body stabilization. A good one. Honestly when it comes to 1080p even GH2 is still killer and in some cases better than GH4 (it's less noisy in the shadows for some reason). I don't want to switch to Sony, so unless GH6 comes with good in body stabilization, I'm not buying anything new for a long, long time.
I absolutely agree, it's an impressive camera. Even after all these years. And like I said it still is in use. At the moment I'm shooting on both, Panasonic and Sony. They both have their strenght and weaknesses.
Unless you have the Metabones Speeds booster and a low light lens. I have gotten some good low light footage run and gun stuff . My go to lens for this camera Canon 24-70mm, 16-35mm Sigma 18-35, Nikon 35mm .. Awesome channel !
Hi I have big request, it’s been 2 months I tried to setup my Gh4 100 times and followed TH-cam experts settings but still when I shoot the video is coming bright and play back bright in camera monitor, however hen I export the photage video to my Mac book pro 16 inch, the video is darker.. I use 3.6 aperture 50 shutter 4k 25p , iso 400-800, 1 roof light 2 led lights, AWB, Cinelike D -5,-5,-3,0,+1, masterpedisteral +5.. I m really frustrated with, any solution plz
@@RandomRotation no, the camera LCD brightness is set middle.. actually when I use the up dial and put it on P or M mode the recording is as clear bright on my computer as what show on LCD,, but those modes aren’t have 4K and the quality isn’t that good.. as everyone use Video logo M mode, and that’s the perfect mode for video but that’s coming clear on lcd but darker on computer, I don’t know why the other comes bright on both screen same, and the special video M mode coming out dark photage in computer
I'm just starting to delve into pro-video work, shadowing an independent filmmaker. I've been thinking of getting a used camera on the cheap (not for client work, but just to learn with as my first video-focused camera). There's an opportunity to buy a used GH4 from a friend - it's in great condition - for about 180 euro. Should I just jump at it or wait for another deal? I don't have much of a budget, so I know I won't be able to afford a secondhand GH5 / equivalent for quite a while, even if the prices get cut when the GH6 rolls around.
Get it! 180 is a very good price. I don’t think you‘ll regret it. Even if you buy a GH6 or something similar in the future, you can still use the GH4 as your B-cam.
I love my 80d, but I'm thinking of getting a gh4 for the synchro scan, I'd love to get a gh5 or gh5s but they are too expensive and I can't justify buying them just for the synchro scan (as I don't need 4k60 all that much)
Thanks! The FUJIFILM X-T30 is close to 1.000,-. That's a pretty solid camera. Or the Sony Alpha 6400. It depends on where you see yourself in the future. Switching systems is expensive. And there's a good chance, that your lenses will stay with you longer than the cameras you buy. Choose wisely :)
i making photos and video with this with pro olympus lenses. this is ultra powerfull toll to make manual work and force to make good lighting situations. this is good enough for pro work

Oh boy, have you lost it or did it got stolen?
Awesome! Would love to see any Gh4 work you have and able to share :)

@@pacoreguenga That's a bummer! But I'm glad you made it through.
So sorry to hear that.
Godspeed, you're relentless 💕😤

That’s cool! I did not know that yet. Thanks for sharing man! 🙌🏼
@@RandomRotation no worries, I was pleased to discover that trick, as the image app window is a little too small generally.
Such a beast! Still using it in 2022
🙌🏼
Thanks, brother! I'm going on a video shoot with my GH4 today!! Best Wishes
Happy shooting!
@@RandomRotation Thank you, my friend! :)
Last weekend I met a photographer who still uses the GH4 and he makes a living from it.
The panasonics are not good for low light night shots but everything else superb.
Denoise post processing software helps.
Very solid device! No doubt.
@@thegroove2000 Denoising on what editing platform pls?

👍🏾 I use firmware hacks on my GH2, and am happy with the results. The colors and skin tones look great straight out of the camera.
I just filmed a two-hour-long meeting using a GH4. It worked fine.
It is a very good device!
Can you tell me if I can do tethering in lightroom with the gh4 or if there is any program that does this?
I guess that should be possible. But I honestly never tried. Maybe this video can answer your question: th-cam.com/video/CyqCbsysgFM/w-d-xo.html

Is it possible that you have set your cam monitor brightness to high? Sometimes it's those little things.

@@RandomRotation thanks for the advice - I think I'll do this :)
Used or new one, plz reply.
Great vid, i wish there was a webcam capability with the GH4 seems rather difficult to set up
Thanks :)
Well, you could use OBS and run the GH4 as a virtual camera. That works fine.

Oh yeah, the 80D is a fantastic camera. No doubt! What about a used GH5?
@@RandomRotation gh5 is too expensive, I'd love to own one, but I can't justify buying it.
The only thing I'd switch to is the XT3 but I don't have the money. The only issue I have is it's hard to find good cages where I am
The XT3 seems to be a damn nice camera! I haven't shot with it so far. But it looks good! Where are you located?
V good video, plz advice me best photo camera for wedding videography under 1000$ without lens, pls reply.
