Panasonic FZ1000 1", 4K video, superzoom, official topic

@belfryman As @kurth said, you can record internally and externally at the same time. First thing to try: don't have a SD Card in the camera when connected to the Blade (if you did not tried it already).

I dont't have (yet) the FZ1000, but looking at the Advanced Manual (http://service.us.panasonic.com/opermanpdf/DMCFZ1000_ADV.pdf), in the page 52, there are some HDMI output settings that are theoretically to work only in play mode, but maybe affects the HDMI output during recording too. The options are [AUTO, 4k, 1080p, 1080i, 720p, 480p]. Maybe this setting is in AUTO, and the camera cannot identify the resolution in Blade's HDMI - try to change this setting to 1080p.

@kurth - I'd be very surprised if it's the ninja. This sounds like the same hdmi problem with the GH4, that the camera is outputting 50/60p over hdmi - which the ninja does not support

US Version also has 30 min. recording limit.

Also to note, if you turn off Image Stabilization, you gain 2mm when shooting in HD (26mm @ widest instead of 28mm). In 4K, it is always 37mm at widest.

@MarcioK....no, I said that the image-resource article states you can not record incamera at the same time. I'd really want this camera if pany would put a more robust mp4 1080 codec. Not sure why they chose not to.

@MarcioK I tried auto and setting output, made no difference. I think it is the same issue as the GH4.

I just shot my first wedding with this camera. I love it. I wish the aperture was constant. But the zoom is a great addition, a great focal length, focus is sharp. And why couldn't they have a jack for headphones?

@uzland how did you monitor audio in your video? Tascam or Zoom H series recorder?

Now that the new fw is out, is there a chance someone will hack it and menage to get the 240fps? In 720p?

Hi, I made a concert recording in 4K. Someone may be interested in it. Audio is TASCAM DR-40.

MarcioK

@stevens37y it is exactly the kind of footage that I was looking. Do you remember which settings you used (aperture, focal distance, ISO, shutter speed, etc)?

stevens37y

@MarcioK : yes. F 4.0 : 1/40s : ISO 400 (or 800 i don't remember exactly)
cinelike D --- highlight-shadow=lower contrast ( shadow=+2, highlight=-2 ) --- contrast=-1 --- saturation=-1 --- sharp=-2 --- NR=0. I recorded the 1st part of the concert in 4K (~1h = 40Gbyte :)

MarcioK

@stevens37y Thanks. :)

@stevens37y really great job. Looks clean and gives me that "I was there" vibe. Really got into the Organ solo the way you shot it.

In almost every respect, performance of the Panasonic FZ1000 simply blows the Sony RX10 out of the water.

has anybody found the solution for FZ1000 baseplate so it would not block the battery door when being mounted on tripod ?

Vitaliy_Kiselev

@abolit

Cheap Chinese cage, file and some of your time.

Or you want something different?

abolit

Getting a cage would be a good idea but for now I'd rather get a small baseplate to keep it compact . Just checked RRS for a dedicated camera plate for FZ1000 , no such thing ... well ,I guess I will check with them to see if they have any plans to make one.
