The best walkthrough video on the Panasonic GH6 I've seen so far. Thank you.
Thanks Darryl!
Thanks Darryl!
You just earned a new subscriber my dude, this is exactly what I needed for my upcoming shoot. Killer content
Thanks so much!!
Thanks for making this video - I just bought a GH6 and it is actually my first video camera, so this in depth video was really helpful!
Excellent, thorough video! A GH6 is still on my wishlist, but this video helped me learn a lot about my G95. 👍🏻
This video is the ONLY video you need for your GH6 setup! It's an absolute MASTERCLASS on this device, great video sir, really great quality. Subbed, liked. How do I donate? I've literally watched the video at least 4 times now start to finish.
amazing video. appreciate the length. this is a complex menu and needed you to take your time. a few things got skipped but it was all self explanatory stuff or stuff i could easily figure out in the manual. one of the few times i subscribe off a single video, but i can tell you are very knowledgeable and i loved the color grading comparisons you showed with vlog at the end. great stuff, convinced me to begin with vlog.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Bought my GH6 today. Your outstanding tutorial saved me so much time! Thx!!
Really useful, literally just bought one 👌
Thanks!!
Excellent walkthrough! I just got the GH6 and this is very helpful.
Thank you very much. I saw this video two times organizing all the settings of my new GH6. Vey helpfull.
Hi, I'm excited.
As a day old owner of the GH6, I'm glad I found your FB. There is a difference in the menu whether it is a GH5 or GH6. I then preset the VLog variant. I will implement your tut in my weblog, it's worth it. Thank you, really well done.
Thanks for that, and good luck with the GH6!
Your introduction is very detailed I like your video very much
Thank you!
Good for you Russell keep up the great work
Nice job man! really appreciate the video! helped alot.
Fantastic video ! Thank you very much for this very useful information.
Thanks for watching!
Absolutely fantastic tutorial!
Very useful walkthrough!
Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you for the walk through, even though I'm familiar with the Panasonic series camera, this is very helpful
Very good. Learned alot. Thanks
Great video! Bought my GH6 yesterday and this makes life a lot easier.
Great to hear!
Glad to hear it 🙌
This was amazingly helpful, thank you so much!
Thanks Anthony!
What an amazingly detailed review of the external buttons and internal menu options. This saved me a ton of time. Subscribed. Thanks Russell! Well done.
Thanks a lot for watching!
This was so much better than reading a manual! Thank you! My company just purchased this for me at work and I can't wait to start using it!
Thank you! We're really glad you liked it. Good luck with the new camera :D
Thank you!
Great vid. I think the port on the front is T/C.
Yeah you can sync timecode with the flash sync port 🙏
This was super helpful, thank you!!
Glad it was worth the watch, James!
Very helpful, Russell. Cheers.
Great tutorial. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Teşekkür ederim güzel bir video olmuş. Faydalandım.
Awesome bro ✌️ and thanks 😊
I got mine the other day, did a trial filming and I’m amazed. The AF is amazingly a lot better. I can’t wait for ProRes Raw @ 120fps externally. Wow! I’m an amateur but now I know why the GH5 was wildly popular. Great video!
Thanks!
Good Video sharing brother!!!
useful gh6 centric review as good as gh5 II handy being in between 5 and 8k. not bad price for it.
Thanks John!
Thank you!!!!
LOVE ❤️
Thanks Pierra!
Thanks Russell. .75 playback speed works for me 🎥 👀
Didn’t know vlog was dual iso 👍🏽
a big like for this video
Thanks!
thnx! Found some new menu items :)
Would be great to hear more details on how to shoot and expose best on GH6 in VLOG
I prefer to overexpose a little bit and then drag down the highlights afterwards. On my channel I have an example of how I use my LUTs in final cut, you’ll see the footage is slightly overexposed. An external monitor is really helpful to be able to nail the exposure of budget allows!
hey, thank you so much for this video, it helped me a lot! I have a question tho! I would love to work with slomo but when I try to set up the variable frame rate i can only go up to 50, not higher. How can i change that? I tried changing several settings like the rec quality but nothing changed.
Thanks Man!!!!!
Pleasure!
Super👍
Thank you 👍
I have two GH5s, and one GH5 ii. I just ordered a GH6. I appreciate your tutorial. The options are staggering.
That's great to hear, thank you for watching and enjoy the GH6
Shooting surfing from land with the 70-200mm f4. Any advice on shooting 4k/120fps and 5.7k/60fps in super bright sunlight for 12 hours at a time? Like any settings I should have on/off that I may notg be thinking of? This camera does so much. Moved over from a Sony FS5 and I feel like a total rookie using this camera.... Thanks!
After updating my Camera to firmware 2.2 and my Leica 12-60mm lens to 1.3 My GH6's Lens Information option at 24:18 of the video is greyed out. Even when switching the camera off and back on it stopped asking which lens I am using. Please help!
Hi, thank you for your video! I'm trying to find 8 bit and 23.96, 24 , 60 and 120 fps. Where can i find this frames rates? Do i have to do a software update? Thanks
Fantastic. Thank you. My camera arrived today so your walkthrough will be very useful. How do you do it without a teleprompter? Impressive.
Great, thanks for letting me know :) I have used GH cameras for years so a lot of the features are familiar to me 🙌
Hello, your video is amazing and it help a lot. I would like to use the GH6 in AF and I would like to use it to shoot everything, without ever taking it off. I shoot V-Log, 4K, (ALL-I 600Mbps), 10bit, 4:2:2, 50p and I'd like to ask 2 questions please:
1) I put the level on AFC. I would like to use AF in everyday life. It annoys me when he occasionally stutters to seek focus. How would you configure Sensitivity and Speed?
2) When I go to Menu/AF Mode and use "Full Area", why do I have to use the focus handle like when I use "1 Area"?
Thanks for your advice.
excellent presentation russell, thank you very much !👍
Thank you Olivier :)
In the HDMI section, you were speaking about going to directly to ssd, Could you further explain that. I am wondering about getting a cf express type b/sd card reader and then downloading to ssd.
I completely watched your video. Thanks for the long review. Did I missed the menu option where you change between PAL and NTSC? I rather would like to film in 24fps...
Sure, sorry I didn't cover this - it's a simple switch from PAL > NTSC in the Settings menu.
I still have the same problem with the autofocus of the GH5M2 or GH6: the focus is perfect when going from the foreground to the background but inverts the camera continues to seek focus towards a 3rd plane? instead of coming back to the foreground instantly... it takes a moment to come back to the foreground. is there a solution ?
I put a manual lens on my GH6, and cant enable on monitor the exposure meter. How can I solve this?
Really helpful video! Question, at around the 25minute mark, you go over the image stabilization menu settings. At the bottom under “Lens Information”, if we are adapting a 35mm lens with a speed booster, do we still put 35mm as the lense choice? Or do we have to choose a different focal length for the camera so it’s stabilization is more accurate?
Hi, I would put the equivalent focal length as to what the speed booster brings it to. Ie if you’re adapting the 18-35 Sigma ART and using a 0.71x SB, I’d set the lens info to whatever the 0.71x is :)
@@RussellKentNicholls makes sense, thank you for the response! funny enough i just ordered the sigma 18-35 for my gh6, seems like everyone says its a must have. excited to try it on my new gh6 with the viltrox!
@@AlanChunkyMunky great choice! It lived on my GH5!! Great lens :)
@@AlanChunkyMunky Buy the PanaLeica 10-25mm and be happy!
Didn't realise this released
Yes! You can pre-order yours now. :)
Just thought I should add tha if you're lens has OIS mode, then you cannot change the Operations Mode to OFF -- because the lens is taking over that job, that is, setting the OIS to ON and OFF is the same as setting the Operation Mode to ON or OFF
The GH6 doesn't have dual native ISO... it has Dual GAIN output. The main difference is that in VLOG with DR Boost ON, it records 2 video streams, one at 250 ISO and the other at 2,000 ISO, and combines them into 1 output. This is how cinema cameras like the Arri Alexa work too.
Hello, so I have a problem. I accidentally changed my settings for downloading photos from my camera to the app. it now says "images and group pictures that cannot be copied to the smartphone are excluded" how do I fix this so that I can again?
How do set the ISO sensitivity to 400 if you are using V-log? My camera only allows a lower limit of 2000.
I think you have dynamic range boost ON which forces lower ISO of 2,000. Turn off DRB off & your dual iso will change :)
Very helpful video! However, Panasonic needs to FIX the Time Code display which will NOT display the Time Code value on an external monitor. It will display the letters TC (for Time Code of course) on the external monitor but NO Time Code value next to the letters TC.
I have a setup where I need to see the TC value and this annoying glitch is preventing me from using an external monitor until Panasonic fixes this.
I e-mailed Panasonic customer service about this issue 6 days ago and despite their pledge to respond to e-mail within 24 hrs....nothing but cricket sounds from them.
Really great info and video!!
It takes awhile to figure out settings that are perfect for you - this helped.
FYI - my favorite color profile is Natural with: Contrast -2 / Sharp -1 / NR -.5 / Sat -1 /Highlights -.5
V-log is of course great for high DR - but takes more grading work. ;-/
Hey - how did you record the camera menu screens that are displayed semi-transparent?
Thanks!
Hi, i was looking for how to record GH6 screen, how did you do that? Thanks.
Hi, I recorded it with a Ninja V and then cropped it on the screen as an overlay. I recorded the menus afterwards, that’s why you can’t see the cable connected in the video :)
What about pixel-pixel mode??
So Russell, The GH6 is the top 4/3rds Camera for Video, what is the Top 4/3rds camera for stills Photography please, I currently use all Olympus gear. regards, Colin.
Hi Colin, even though the GH6 body and features are geared more to video shooters, it is great for photography. You might like to look at the GH5 Mk 2 as well, as this is an updated version of the GH5 which is more evenly balanced for both video and photo.
You can’t go wrong with the G9, the GH cameras are more geared for video and you’ll just be wasting money if you don’t care about that.
Hi Russel can you help me i have gone from GH5 to GH6 i use the Atomos Ninja V on the GH5 you were able to start recording on the Ninja with the shutter button but I am not able to do this on the GH6 regards Dave
Hi Dave, thanks for your question. It’s definitely in there on the menus, you might need to turn Timecode ON first and then go into the HDMI menus and look for HDMI Rec option and turn it on (I can’t remember it exactly by memory). I hope that helps!
@@RussellKentNicholls thanks I will give it a try regards Dave
I bought a gh6 and I have a strange problem. Well, the recording on the card starts 2 seconds after pressing the shutter. Is it normal? My card is ANGELBIRD AV PRO CFexpress SE 512GB
It might be that it has an internal issue or it could be the format you are filming in - I don't think it's unusual
At the 6:41 mark you see on the camera screen next to your F1.7... There's a +3 data number showing. What is that ?! And how can you turn it off...? That would drive me crazy. I don't remember the GH5 having that...
Hi! This is on the GH5 as well as all S Series; it's just the EV meter to show the exposure of the image. It's really helpful in use :)
“The Dual native ISO kicks in at 400 and at 2000”. This is not correct: native ISO is 250. And the 2000 ISO offers the option to active the high dynamic range boost function. Which is a great feature but not a dual native iSO.
Hi, how do I set it up for filming pilates outside with bright and cloudy day? Mine is so difficult. Thank you
Hello! You just need a filter - we do really affordable ND's online under the Calumet brand.
Thank you! Which one do you recommend for sunny day in Spain and also a cloudy day? I need both to film outside @@WexPhotoVideo
Hi Russell
Whats the difference between afc to afs. When shooting for video
Hi Antwon, if you or your subject is moving I’d recommend using AF-C (Continuous) in video mode as you’re more likely to keep it in focus over AF-S. Continuous means the camera will keep the AF active throughout, and this can also be changed in the menu to be focusing before you press record by setting the mode from Mode 1 to Mode 2 in the menu.
@@RussellKentNicholls thanks for the advice. What do you by changing mode 1 or mode 2
@@antwonwilliams-smith3740 no problem, check out the video at 18:13 where you’ll find this option.
How did you get the camera screen on the video with a transparent background? that's pretty helpful.
I am not sure if this is the case but in editing programs they have those options were you can select overlay, color burn, stencil alpha etc… one of those menus selections that are in the program you could probably use to acquire that effect and remove the black part. If it’s not out of the camera that way.
Yes I recorded on ninja, cropped out the rest and used “Screen” opacity mode to remove the black background so it became transparent.
@@RussellKentNicholls nice btw Russell love your work! Been following you on Instagram. Have you shot a video with the GH6 yet? I have an S1H, S5 and recently added the GH6 in the line up. I would love to see what look you can make from this camera.
@@amthemusic7632 thanks a lot! I actually only had the GH6 for this video - I loved it but because I use the S Series which is a different lens mount for now, I’m sticking with those :) but I started on GH series and really loved the results with that. So filmic; they’re seriously underrated 💪🏻💪🏻
@@RussellKentNicholls ah understood! Hope you get another chance with it this year. Also I agree I am definitely excited to see whats next with the S Series line up!
What's a good lens for GH6
The 10-25 is pricey but covers pretty much all the ranges I’d use (20-50mm FF equivalent)
can I disable the front record button?
Hmmm, as far as I know, no - only the shutter button as record can be enabled or disabled. I haven’t seen any menu options for turning it off completely.
@@RussellKentNicholls I keep turning it on by accident. Once I get a cage that might help
I subscribed but I can't take this camera seriously at the same pricepoint as a Sony A7IV which is light years ahead of this thing, even after waiting for years. Regardness, really good video and I am considering another GH5 as my nostalgia camera and because the $1,299 pricepoint is exactly where the GH6 should be.
Sony is good for photographers. You probably do not understand what video capabilities are in the GH6.
For professional video work you should not take the Sony A7IV seriously at the same price point compared with the GH6!! Amateurs and beginners believe in the FF hype and are led to believe that FF is the only option for good images! Curious time for us when beginners use FF and professionals use crop sensors (among others, of course)! Cameras are work tools! Every job requires a different tool! It remains to understand them and know how to use them!
@@TITAOSTEIN The GH6 is a great camera and the stabilization is awesome. To compete with that, I have to use a Gimbal which is big and heavy. However; If I'm geared up with everything, you won't stand a chance against me with me A7iv and Gmaster 16-35. BUT, if I can't use the gimbal, because of the stabilization you will smoke me. I wish I had both cameras. The GH6 is a comfortable option if I could live with the crappy focusing.
@@TheThaiLife A Porsche would smoke a Land Rover Defender on a racetrack, but lose on mountain trails. Different tools. Choosing iQ as the sole criterion for Cameras is the same as choosing speed as the sole criterion for cars.
@@TheThaiLife If you are satisfied with what is in the Sony A7IV, then this is the camera for you. I bought the gh6 because it has something that the Sony A7IV does not have, and I need it more than the Sony brand.
how do you turn it on?
The on/off switch is on the top cover around the mode dial. If you look at 5:25 there is a top-down camera angle which shows the whole top cover. the on and off markings are visible between the Mode dial and the red button.
nativ ISO?
The GH6 has dual native ISO or dual output gain. This enables the camera to read two different outputs from each sensor and then combine them to deliver images and video with more detail in the shadows and highlights
The GH5 really disappointed me when shooting video of moving subjects like birds flying or planes landing. As soon is a have to follow/pan the subject, even very slow following, a lot of jitter and judder occurs in the recordings. For me, as a wildlife videographer, it made the GH5 practically completely unusable. Do you know if this serious jitter problem is solved on the GH6? Did you do a jitter test?
