Great Namibia video shot on the GH5 by Kevin Blanc

MY NAMIBIA SAFARI from LAUSCHSICHT on Vimeo.

Kevin sent me the following message:

“We recently shot this Film in Namibia (4K): https://vimeo.com/256772321
It’s all GH5 and Phantom 4 Pro – deliberately a very light setup. Normally we shoot on much bigger Cameras.

I thought this might be of interest for you and your readers :)

Panasonic now turns 100 years old!

Panasonic launched a special 100 year anniversary page:

Panasonic was founded in 1918 by Konosuke Matsushita. That year, Panasonic introduced an improved attachment plug, which allowed people to power an electrical appliance from a light socket. Next was a double cluster socket that made it possible to power lights and appliances from a single source. Our principles of making life ever more comfortable originated from these small ideas.

Panasonic’s 100th anniversary is upon us. To address the changing times, we continue to develop the products of the future worldwide, always cherishing the principles our founder defined for us one century ago.

You can see some of their key products of their first 100 years on their page.

Panasonic GX850 Review by Imaging Resource: “one of the best compact mirrorless cameras available”

Imaging Resource posted the full GX850 review

The Panasonic GX850 is an impressive entry-level camera in its own right. It is well-designed, it performs well and it captures great images. It also includes numerous nice features, such as 4K video recording and many neat shooting modes. Its performance is enough to make the camera stand out in the compact mirrorless category. However, when you consider the price of the GX850 — under US$550 with a kit lens — the camera becomes a stellar option. While not without its faults, if you’re looking for something compact and sleek which will offer a lot of great lens options and give you room to grow, then the GX850 is a great choice and is thus an easy Dave’s Pick.
