GH4 Checking out the GH4...and questions?

[Mike Lorushe]

Hey guys,

I'll be heading to the last day of the BVE Expo in London tomorrow. I went yesterday to check out the GH4 amongst other things. I had a little play with it, as well as the hideously designed add-on brick; physically the GH4 is almost identical to the GH3.

The Panasonic rep said:
- It will probably be out latest in a couple of months but he couldn't say for sure
- Pricing would be announced shortly before being released
- It will be a world PAL/NTSC camera.
- It is indeed intended to replace the GH3

I forgot to see if the menu disappears after a few seconds. Is there anything else anyone would like me to check out with it while I'm there?

I would be very interested if you could check out the picture quality in 1920x1080 mode. Look carefully for any aliasing and moire. Also, how does the ability to resolve fine detail at 1080 compare to the 4K picture when the 4K is reduced to 1080? I know this last one may not be possible to determine at a show, but I thought I'd throw it in anyway.

Thanks!

Would love to see a variation of this instead of the current offering.
I still think they could have a real winner if they spent a little longer
working on the form factor. At least this would be a more ergonomic
option given the camera is probably not going to change.
Anybody from Panasonic PLEASE ! this would make a lot more sense than the current brick.
My 2 Cents

1) it's only ONE zebra - isn't it?
2) can you chose the % in zebra?
