GH4 shipping in the US now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just got off the phone with Samy's in California. They are picking up their first shipment today. They should be shipping to customers by next week. Their site lists it as in stock. Not sure if Amazon is filling orders yet or not...

I finally created the first of several Panasonic GH3 tips and tricks videos. I will create more of these as time allows. For now this video goes over the items below. Make sure you watch it all the way through. At the end I discuss some of the issues that the GH3 currently has. If anyone...

Video in AFF mode with the 35-100mm F2.8 lens. I am not a professional photographer. I am simply a dad that wants a camera that can make me look like a better photographer than I really am. The GH2 accomplished that for video but it didn't really work as well for stills. Now with the GH3...

Here are some sample Astro Photographs I took with the GH3. I was able to capture 15 objects in a single night. All of these images were out of the camera jpgs. Most were single exposure shots with no post processing at all. I will try to upload the original files here but I don't have the time...

Here is a guide to how I have my GoPro 3 setup and some tips on how to handle some of the issues with it. This isn't totally about Micro Four Thirds. However, I use a GoPro 3 instead of buying a wide angle lens which is very expensive with m4/3s. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2d_GI31Tv5A

I have been shooting with my GH2 and GoPro Hero3 Black simultaneously for a few weeks now and I am getting the GH3 in two weeks. I bought the 35-100mm F2.8 lens last week and I wanted to get the 12-35mm F2.8 lens as well. However, I just couldn't afford both lenses. Instead I decided to get the...

Here is a set of highlights from a local BMX competition that I filmed with my GH2 + 35-100mm F2.8 @ F2.8 and my new GoPro 3 Black mounted to the hot shoe. The clicking noise in some of the clips is the GH2 taking stills while the GoPro Recorded video. I know the editing is poor in this video...

Just talked to Samys.com. They got 12 of the 35-100mm F2.8 lenses in stock today. Mine will ship today or tomorrow with next day air so I will have it for the weekend. Any things you all are interested in seeing tested? I plan on checking for IS and Shutter vibration issues, optimal focal...

I entered a video contest for Misty Mountain Climbing. A link to the video I entered is below. If you want to help me out then please click on the picture at the link below and then "like" the picture on Facebook...

Here is a sample video of the kind of events that I shoot. They are all in extremely poorly lit climbing gyms that are more like caves. I was pleased with the content of the video. However, I think the GH2 has some shortcomings that I would like to remedy with a GH3 + 35-100m F2.8, + GoPro...

I want to get a dual head tripod or perhaps a wearable mount to compare the GH3 to the GH2 with when I get it. I would like to film the exact same thing side by side with the two cameras. So is there anything that won't break the bank(<$200) that will support two cameras and perhaps be mobile...

This video demonstrates the difference between the multi aspect ratio sensor of the GH2 and the non multi aspect ratio sensor of the new GH3. It also shows how important the additional dynamic range of the GH3 could be. So how important is the M.A.R to you...

FZ200 High Speed Video samples for those interested in it for GH3. In my opinion they are not great. Hopefully, the GH3 brings better quality with the same functionality. 720p @ 100 FPS(PAL) 480p @ 200 FPS(PAL) http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbIzuTHj_FvNJJVy6-xNXSA?feature=watch

So how you all deal with shooting at faster shutter speeds in fluorescent lighting with a rolling shutter camera. I shoot a lot of slow motion indoors and so I want to shoot at higher shutter speeds. However, I get a sort of strobing affect if I go faster than 1/120th of a second. Will this...

You use a GF1 which does not benefit from the long shutter duration noise reduction. In fact the GF1 has much better long shutter duration noise handling than the GH2. I have both and use the GF1 for Astro Photography stills and the GH2 for solar system videos. I have a auto trigger device that...
