- Hi, my name's Rich Harrington. - And I'm Robbie Carman. - And welcome to this week of Video Gear Weekly. Rob, we got a camera that a lot of people are trying to get their hands on. - Man, this camera has... Before it was released, the buzz about it was intense and immense. So everybody was talkin' about it and then since it's been released, yeah it's been getting awesome reviews. I've actually worked on a couple projects that have shot with it past week or two. I've gotten my hands on it and really gotten to know the camera. I got to say this is one awesome Camera System, and I say that about a lot of Camera Systems but this is one of my favorites out there these days.
And this week we're going to kind of break down as we usually do; things we like about the camera, things we don't like about the camera. We'll take a look at some footage, we'll take a look at some of the menus. But overall Rich this is kind of a unique camera because unlike a lot of DSLRs, it's almost a Cinema Camera. - [Rich] Essentially the GH3 has evolved into the GH4. - Makes sense. (chuckles) - And with that yeah, logical progression right? With that, we really have a camera that's aimed at two distinctly different markets. The H in the GH was for hybrid; and so on its own it was a great Hybrid Camera.
This is one of the first cameras to really embrace the DSLR video movement. Although it is a Micro Four-Thirds and not a DSLR body if you're being a stickler. - [Robbie] Sure. - But they kind of went a step further and said: well so many people love this for video, let's take all those video features people want and put them into this enormous brick you could attach to the bottom. We're going to talk about that too. So there's a lot of things to love and a couple of head-scratchers on this camera but that's what this week's show's all about. - Well let's jump in and get started.
