GH4 New footage

I wonder what exactly is going on here ? Simon Alexander is listed in the Nov 29 2013 video and the Simon Alexander from the March 19 2014 video replies "amazing footage crazy good" on the Nov 29 2013 video 1 day ago !


I don't know. The guy seems like a real person on the www.gyronimoaerials.com site?
Why would he rip a video and claim it was GH4?

I asked if he shot the "GH4 Video Test " in 4K with the GH4 and his reply was "yes shot on GH4 4K the original non youtube compressed file looks amazing"

But the same video was posted on Vimeo 4 months ago by Andrew Julian who said " All of the footage was shot in raw cinema DNG with the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera."
The Original 333mb MP4 1080p file is still available for download so anyone could upload that file from Vimeo and upload to youtube and post it under a different name.
 
some new footage I came across, alexa and gh4 both at 1080 96fps. This is the first one i've seen where the gh4 was set to have a deliberately flat profile.

Yes, that's AJ's video haha. All Blackmagic Pocket. He's out shooting another on the 4K BMD cam now I think.

I'm not sure WHY there are so many fake uploads for the GH4, it's silly.

People just trying to drive traffic to their YouTube sites….Andrew should sue Simon for copyright infringement.

The thing that I noticed most about that footage is that the bokeh looked terrible. Is it the speed booster that's doing that?
because he says he's using it with leica lenses which are supposed to be renowned for their smooth bokeh.

Hah, that's the first thing I noticed also! The Bokeh really sucked!

This is what Emmanuel Pampuri wrote on his Vimeo-site about the Bokeh: " c'est mes vieux Leica qui sont "mous" à pleine ouverture et c'est volontaire ;-) ..." Seems it's because of his old Leica lenses being used plain open.
 
GH4 shows a lot of promise but I still wouldn't know what to do with it. I reckoned DSLR video shooting was dead due to the excellent video cameras with S35 sensors we now have at hand.
