@Vitaliy_Kiselev I work for a marketing agency, and I can tell you some large companies don't see the "Value" in marketing. They just don't get it.

A trusted source told me that he heard the V-LOG firmware update for the GH4 will not come for free. Panasonic will let you pay for it.

Huh

@Tjabo thanks! I'm not sure what you mean by keeping the image size small. I rendered it at 1080. I believe it's streaming in 720 on Vimeo.

Disregard my comment please! :) I'm not sure why, but your video was playing with a black border around it for me as if it was 720 format in the middle of a 1080 screen... Now it's filling the screen normally.

@Gerondo I had the same thing happen 3 times last November. I called one of the lead techs in the U.S. and he said that it was likely a faulty sensor switch, which is supposed to disable the flash when it’s closed. He said that even thought I could smell plastic burning, nothing was really being damaged, and it probably would never happen again, but if it did to send it in. I have used it most days since then, and it has never reoccurred. It was very cold and dry where I was when it did happen - I wonder if static electricity could have played a role.

@h2otara Thanks for your reassuring comment. The camera did work fine with electronic shutter on and filming was not a problem. But the smell of plastic burning did ring an alarm bell. I did make a photo two times and two times there was this noise and smell so i did not dare to use the camera again. Camera is insured so I 'll wait for parts and repair. I will let you know what their (Tech repair) analysis is of the fault.

This was shot in using a Panasonic GH4 camera, set at 1080p 60fps and recording at 200mbps. Lenses used were the Panasonic 14-45, 45-175, and Olympus 60mm macro as well as 75-300.

@lmackreath from metabones site "Auto focus on Panasonic Micro Four Thirds cameras"...

The Sigma would be longer... 32-91mm equivalent. The Panny is 24-70 equiv. The Sigma and booster will also be much larger and heavier.

@Vesku Yes! I've wanted auto ISO in M with EV adjust since the day I got my GH4!
I spoke with a Panasonic sales rep last week to ask what he'd heard about the GH5. According to his information, although there are a lot of rumors out there, there are no official specs for a successor to the GH4 at this time. My wish list includes: 4K at 60fps or higher 1080 at 120fps or higher (and full quality, not whatever we're getting out of VFR mode) 4K raw in camera...

Commercial for KM Novosibirsk. In this project I was DOP and the operator in some shots :). It was fun. Shot with the gh4, DJI Ronin, set of cine lenses Samyang and nikkor 50 1.2 ais, benro tripod, crane, 3x Dedolight Felloni. Сuts in Premiere.

@Rerbreg

Nice work, and ... loved the story, especially the end. Back in the mid 60's, as a 7th grade student in an inner-town school 7th-9th grades, with a lot of fights, I was tall for my age, pudgy, and scared of fighting. Also as we now know, I'm well onto the Aspergers spectrum. So my social skills weren't great, all my attempts to 'blend-in' with the normal early teen teasing either ticked people off or caused them to howl in laughter at me.

So ... I became the instant favorite of all the bullies who wanted to shove someone around ... safely. Without really risking a real fight, you know. My dad had been much the same at that age other than short & skinny back in the late '20's in the upper US plains. And a bully target. He'd learned to be a street-fighter to the point of looking for fights, and became a TALL skinny kid who could take anybody for the thrill of it.

So ... he taught me to think street-fighting, to invoke an adrenaline rush and use it to enable a quickness I could not do otherwise, and to think totally cold ... maximum damage for minimum time using anything to hand, causing MAJOR pain at the least ... and to drop the opponent to the ground as fast as possible & get out before his friends could gather. In a few months, I found no one interested in bothering me anymore. It was way too painful and embarrassing.

Watching this brought back memories of a couple situations ... and yea, taught to be a nasty street-fighter, he had those kids right where he wanted them ... in close in a confined space with no witnesses, all within easy arm/foot reach for him, and if he surprised them at point of attack, they're in trouble. Easy to cause enough pain they won't follow for a bit, and scamper away.

We're too sissy to teach anything like that in the US these days. A very sad situation.
