Just sharing with you a video we just made for Christies in Hong Kong. It was shot on the GH4 using V-Log.

We only had 6 hours to shoot 60+ watches so it was quite a challenge.

Be good to get the communities feedback.

Cheers

I am selling my 1 week old Metabones Speedbooster XL 0.64x. Comes boxed as new and is only a week or so old. Bought to use for one project as client demanded we shoot with a GH4 with Canon Glass, and it was amazing. However, I no longer need the speedbooster as I prefer to shoot with the FS7, hence the sale.

I am selling for $600 USD including postage. Considering it's so new it's already a bargain as it includes postage.

In original box of course and all the original accessories: strap never used, battery, charger, manuals, dvd, usb cable, etc (plus the 2 extra batteries & the 1 extra charger!). This is the US version with 24 + 30! (so better than the 24 + 25 of the European cameras).

I have priced it to move: €599 +20 for shipping (includes insured + trackable shipping). Paypal accepted.

Contact me by PM.

Shot in GH3 and Voigtländer 20mn F0.95, edited and composed with After Effects

I've been following various posts for some days regarding research for a new camera for my video works after having used the canon sx200 for several years to shoot video. For my last work (degree show video at art school) I borrowed a gh1 and I quite liked it, but only due to the existence of this enormous lively community which enriches video life to such a high degree! thanks for that girls and guys!! For the work with the hacked (using mostly 100Mbps Max Latitude Settings V2) gh1 I bought myself two voigtlander noctron prime lenses, one 42.5mm (equiv. 85mm) and one 17.5mm (equiv. 35mm) which I quite enjoyed. I also used a photo tripod, one LED extra light and the great sound device t702 with a great 20 yrs old neumann mic from my school. I search for a camera that works well with these two micro4/3 prime lenses.

I now think about getting either the nx500, gh2/3/4(?), nx1, maximum 1000 EUR. But then I still want to have a lot of extra equipment like for sound, tripod, monitoring and so on. By the way is it possible to use a Mac-Book Air as a live monitor with any of these? I have absolutely no experience and I feel a little bit overwhelmed with all that extra research/equipment, trying to figure out everything here at the forum. Getting a lot of extra gear slowly is wanted, I want to grow up using more and more specific equipment for monitoring, recording sound, follow focus...

For my approach to video/cinema I never worked for money (except for one apprenticeship) so far, my personal projects are non-funded projects and I do operate everything myself (sound, video, editing, even standing in front of the camera) so far. I’d like to shoot either still or handheld mostly, considering the possibility to buy a rig or something similar one day. I’m not so much the studio and big team guy until now...

Since I'm so unsure about what I need maybe I should for the start just go for the gh1 body only costing me 240EUR?

The fact that panasonic goes to three years of guarantee (gh3/4) sounds tempting to me as well. I guess I'm too unsure/experimental and too easy to manipulate.

Thanks in advance! kolinko

I shoot with a hacked Panasonic GH2, mostly Flowmotion V2. My upload codecs are usually h264 .mp4 varying from 24fps to 50fps. Nothing too extreme. When rendered and exported everything is pretty much synced. But on Youtube they are off.

I work on a Macbook Pro Retina (late 2014) 2.2 Ghz Intel Core i7, 16GB RAM

Does anyone know why or how to fix this? Or is it just me and am I going crazy.

Good visualization,

Thank you

Does the Speedbooster feature activate on the GH2 only with a external third-party 5 Volt MicroUSB power supply?

If yes, could anyone who has experience in it share a tried and tested third party 5 volt MicroUSB brand i would need to buy for the same?

Please feel free to share any other views on MB SB+ GH2 setup.

The hacks developed here have piqued my interest. I'm a filmmaker -- still in school, and looking for an affordable way to shoot beautiful footage.

Hopefully you can help me out. Otherwise I'll keep shooting on my panasonic hdc-sd60 (cheap consumer camcorder).

Right now it'll be closed. I'll open it after I get dumping results in about a week.

I was approached by Panasonic several months ago to speak at the Canadian G7 release in Toronto on my experience with Panasonic cameras and my move to 4K video.

Since that time, more opportunities have come to light and I couldn't be more excited to share this with everyone!

Panasonic Canada has created a new website called http://www.lumixstories.ca which highlights several videographers and photographers and I was lucky enough to be featured on the site for my work with the gh1 through gh4. Have a look through the site and check out some of my work as well as some of the other talented shooters!

On top of that, I will be in Halifax, Nova Scotia this long weekend to do an in-store hands-on test day at Henry's with the G7 and new GX8 as well as teaching a 1 hour workshop on my 4K video workflow in Adobe Premiere!

If anyone is from the east coast of Canada and is interested in participating in the workshop, or would like to show me around the beautiful city of Halifax, please message me on here! The link to the workshop is here:

https://www.facebook.com/events/1608468506085767/

There is a lot more in the works and I can't wait to share it with everyone!

With Lumix GH4 with few different lens, and recorded in 96fps high speed.

World Grand Prix 2015, Hong Kong has Thailand, USA, Japan and China teams.

Recorded with Lumix GH4 with 45-200 / 40-150 F2.8 and Extender

Cine D and non-graded image

Color Graded Version by Magic Bullet Look and Sony Vegas

On paper it has the perfect specs. fast Leica lens, 4K video with 100Mbps bitrate to name a few.

The question in my mind is - Can it really be used as a A camera for broadcast quality documentary production? (I am not concerned about the audio)

Your views?

Thanks

I am selling my Nikon - MFT Metabones speedbooster. This has lived on my Sigma 18-35 and is an amazing combination.

I am only selling the adapter because I have gone upmarket in my camera equipment and no longer require it. It is only a few months old and comes as new.

$380 including shipping.

I'm trying to find something that could translate to 14mm (in 35mm land) without overly fish-eyeing. It seems like a lot of people have shot in 4K and used "De-fishing" software to get it looking nice in 1080p.

Found a bunch of 7.5 lenses. As far as I can tell these are as wide as the format can go. But, there are so many. And the Rokinon and Bower look kind of the same. I also noticed Rokinon and Samyang label their last two as "cine".

Any opinions on these lenses?

Rokinon 7.5mm f/3.5 Ultra Wide-Angle Fisheye Lens for Micro 4/3 (Black)

Bower 7.5mm f/3.5 Fisheye Lens for Micro 4/3 Cameras (Black)

Rokinon 7.5mm f/3.5 Ultra Wide-Angle Fisheye Lens for Micro 4/3 (Silver)

Rokinon 7.5mm T3.8 Cine UMC Fisheye Lens for Micro Four Thirds Mount

Samyang 7.5mm T3.8 Cine UMC Fisheye Lens for Micro Four Thirds Mount

My main camera will be the LX100/GX7 or maybe a Olympus EM5-II for the IBIS when running around.

Thank you!

I'm looking at getting the Panasonic 12-35/2.8 and looking for a longer lens to replace my Panasonic 35-100/2.8 which I like for stills, but not for the OIS jitter when shooting video. Does anyone have any experience shooting handheld with OIS with either the P12-35/2.8 and the P45-175? My LX100 OIS is good, but my 35-100 is very poor.

The two lenses will be used with my GX7 and possibly the new G7 for multicam shooting (I also have the LX100 for a smaller third cam).

Which out of the 2 is the better lens? I have the option of selling the SLR Magic to a film maker i know and the Samyang costs roundabout the same as what i am selling the 12mm for.

Kindly advice.

P.S- I have been recommended to go for the Samyang compared to a Tokina 11-16mm (EF) as they said It's sharper and has better CA control. Views on this.

My question is would it be possible for me to change my GH3PC (NTSC) camera to a GH3GC (PAL - India)? This would allow me to use in Europe without recording limit.
