Kuban (video on top): “Bit a short video I shot using the Olympus OMD EM 5 II, last weekend in London.
Simply testing out the camera’s video and HDMI clean feed, I couldn’t get that to work, but the camera performed really smoothly, all shots handheld in a run&gun style, filmed at 1920*1080 at 50fps then re-interpreted in 25fps in premier.”

Stephen: “My 2015 Rode Reel Submission, filmed with two Olympus E-P5. My first video production, based on an interview with my 99 year old Grandpa who still lifts weights, lives independently, and holds a valid driver’s licence. http://www.rode.com/myrodereel/watch/entry/635”
Dustin: “Wish I had the lowdown on new gear, but I want to make a contribution of work. I use the GH4 for my video marketing company Idaho Studio, idahostudio.com. I was going through some of my videos created to test out lenses, I thought this one still shined. Feel free to share. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTr_Jvl-1pc https://vimeo.com/116029111“
Nick Driftwood posted that “Panasonic GH4 V log L versus Sony A7s S Log 2” comparison video. He writes:
Here’s test number 1 of a few coming up. A rather quick ‘vanilla’ test done in the back garden of my 83 year-old father – both cameras using similarly matched lenses , shutter and aperture was adjusted to keep in accordance to the default recommended LOG ISO as given by each camera. Exposure was bang on 0 for each. Nothing else I will give away about the above…just yet!
Panasonic GH4 has ISO 400 in V Log L and Sony A7s has 3200 ISO.
A7s is a full frame, GH4 is a M43.
I may or may not have moved the position of the focal length of each lens.
GH4 lens was a 12-35 Panasonic lens and the A7s was a 24-70 Canon.
This is a fun test and not to be taken seriously by camera fanboys.
With a little adjustment (not shown) its fairly easy to make both cameras match each other during grading. :-)
3D LUTs employed: Panasonic VLog_to_V709_for_V35_ver100 & Sony FS55 1.From_SLog2-SGumut_To_LC-709 .cubes placed using LUT Utility plugin on FCPX.
NO OTHER GRADING DONE ON THIS
All 4K recordings were performed originally on an Atomos Shogun (zero’d) in 422 8-bit on the Sony A7S and 422 10-bit on the Panasonic GH4.
