GH4 Pin out for shutter release cable.

[Attic6]

Anybody know the pin out for the GH4 shutter release?
it seems like 2.5mm hoping its the same as the 60D.
I need to order one to go with a new timelapse slider.

Thanks!

The following scheme works at least for GH1 and GH2 (Google is your friend):

Probably they did not change remote control for the GH4, but I cannot be 100% sure. I suppose that you won't destroy anything by trying, since you are simply applying resistance to the pins.

Panasonic uses the same remote for all their cameras, so you can use that. It's not the same as the 60D (pole polarities are different).

So something like this would work attached to my shoulder rig?

Yes, unless the knock-off cable is bad.

Only way to know for sure is to order one... Ordering now.
