I really love this camera, the GH4 is very easy to use and the 4K is unbelievable, it's the best value for film maker's. Also the slow motion is phenomenal, I can't believe how great the footage looked. I personally own 6 of the best affordable cameras in and the market, BMCC & BMPCC, Canon 5D & 7D , AG-80PJ Panasonic and the Go-pro black. Now I have 4K I will be using my GH4 more than any other camera I own, the quality is unbelievable for the price. Thank's Panasonic you have made a excellent camera for film maker's. Now I need to purchase two GH4's for my production company. Can't wait to see GH5 !!!! Thank you. Tony Moore

This is truly a professionals camera, and for $330, it's a great deal. After a lot of troubleshooting you can pull some professional images, but as a starter camera there is a lot that needs to be tweaked to provide a solid image for a given lighting scenario. I'd recommend getting this with an automatic lens, I bought some manual lenses, and the constant process of adjusting the focus is a bit more of a pain than I expected. It's a great camera, image is top tier and sharpness in 4k exceeded my Samsung S10e. Most importantly it runs continuous video without interruption for basically unlimited time, as long as there is memory available, and that is the biggest step up from my phone, since longer videos get chopped unevenly by the phone, with a jarring audio fault. Throwing a lav mic on this thing completed my setup and I'm very happy now that I've gotten the lighting right.Read full review

This is my second DMC-GH4, so I now have two for multicamera video capture and editing. I like this "hybrid" camera very much for both video and still photography; it's an amazing piece of technology, to put it mildly! Having two identical cameras makes it much easier to match the content (color, saturation, contrast, and more) from both cameras. If you do a search in YouTube for "Michael Kevin Jones & Graham Vink - Rachmaninoff Sonata for Cello and Piano. Andante" you'll find my recently posted multicamera video using both GH4s. Although it was a good price, the only problem I had was that the power cable for the battery charger had a non-standard 2 prong plug (Australian?) for North America. Hard to locate the cable separately, so I simply cut the original plug off, and attached the correct 2 prong plug for NA.Read full review

So instead of wasting your time I have to ask you why don't you have one of these? The quality is superb. The ability to compress 4K video down to a file size that you can edit on almost any system is phenomenal. I produce films for Redbox, and if they are paying money for the film's I shoot with this camera what are you waiting for? There is no doubt that this has all the features that you need to make professional Independent films. So if you want to be silly and go out and spend $40,000 on a red trying to outdo your buddies be my guest. However when your check comes in you'll be paying off that red camera instead of putting money in your pocket. Remember this is a business be a business person be smart get this camera. Enough said.

As a visual enthusiast and amateur creator, I decided that 2020 would be the year that I would upgrade from my tried and true Canon EOS Rebel T3i. Having the little knowledge of cameras I did prior to my upgrade posed as a disadvantage when it came to making a decision on what I would upgrade to, so I thrust myself into a 2 week crash course on which components you should focus on when looking for a "quality" camera. On paper, the Panasonic GH line caught my eye and stuck with me the most consistently throughout my decision process. A professional content creator by the name of Nigel Barros, an avid GH3 user, helped convince me that choosing from the Panasonic GH line would be in my best interest for my particular needs. I went with the GH4 because the distance between it and the GH5 price wise was a little steep for my budget, and the GH3 didn't quite excite me enough with its specifications. So far, the GH4 has marvelously served my needs in a variety of creative settings, including a couple short films, a handful of music videos, and some simple indoor/outdoor photo shoots. The camera is very user friendly, having one of the best menu layouts I've ever used, has a great selection of codecs, has focus peaking and zebra highlight warnings, is very light and compact yet sturdy and durable with its weather sealed magnesium alloy body which is a definite plus compared to its competitors often having "cheaper" feelings plastics. I haven't found many cons with this camera besides the obvious limitations of the MFT system, the lack of IBIS, and poor AF, but these negatives were easily remedied with a speed booster and a basic understanding of proper composition, a tripod and a simple cage rig. I'm never in a situation where I would use the AF system, so that is irrelevant to my requirements. For AF, I would heavily recommend a Canon, as they are one of if not the best for that particular function. I'm not quite sure why the GH4 gets such a bad rap in low light either, because that's where I thought I would have definitely seen a noticeable negative in its sensor performance, but for me personally, it handles any situation and setting I throw at it with relative ease. It's crazy how much quality you can get these days on a budget. Conclusion: If you're an amateur filmmaker looking to upgrade from an older DSLR model and leap into the mirrorless world, I highly recommend this Panasonic camera, as it is a definite bang for buck option, especially when you snag one at a really solid price (Like me!). However, if you're a solo content creator // streamer // vlogger for Youtube // Twitch with no intention of investing in some external equipment, (E.g. lenses and adapters, audio recorder, lighting, studying filmmaking techniques, etc.) I would probably look elsewhere.Read full review
