Kevin: “https://vimeo.com/113183920. Shot with the Panasonic GH4. Sleeping in The Cosmos is a portrait on driver (sleeper mechanic) Scott Sousa. In late 2014 Scott took his sleeper Saturn up to the line against a 5th generation Chevy Camaro and not only won, but achieved an entirely new record for himself putting the car into a whole new time bracket. Join Scott on a journey through the cosmos to understand what makes him and his car tick!”
Andrew: “Your readers may be interested in some of the unique architecture in Rangoon (Yangon), Burma: http://worldofdecay.blogspot.com/2014/11/burmese-days-1-very-odd-lim-chin-tsong.html This is a very odd mansion built a century ago by a Chinese businessman. http://worldofdecay.blogspot.com/2014/11/burmese-days-2-decay-at-pegu-club.html This is the famous Pegu Club, the British gentleman’s club from 1882, now deserted with fate unknown. Most photographs taken with the Olympus 9-18mm lens, processed with PhotoNinja software.”
Shaun: “This short documentary was filmed entirely on the Lumix GH4. The story is about a young teenager who loves photography, has never visited a college campus, but is given the opportunity to go to a Duke University football game and photograph it with an all access media pass. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6lARirchro”
Mike: “I just got my GM5 a few days ago and did a first impressions review focusing on the size advantage and how it works with various micro four thirds lenses: http://backgroundblur.com/#!/articles/547e16cd4306f47b33c62b10”
Lawrence: “I recently purchased the LX100 through your links and just spent a week with it in Japan. I took a few stills (attached 4 pictures from Japan and one from Seattle – feel free to share ) but focused mostly on video.
The video is below – originally shot in 4K, then downsampled to 1080p and edited in Premiere Pro (with a little color grading, levels, vignetting applied). Everything was handheld except for the time lapse scenes. So far I’ve found the LX100 to be a joy to use – substantially better handling than the RX100 series I had been using previously, with far better options for video and just as good image quality.

Excellent sharpness in the centre from maximum aperture
Lack of autofocus may put some people off (although it really shouldn’t)
