Abstract: As video cameras go, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH4 and Sony Alpha 7S are very DSLR-like in shape. A four-fold difference in sensor size, and a significant gulf in price suggests this may be the only similarity. However, in terms of intent, they're not as di...

Impressive 4K video; Durable weathersealed body; Very fast autofocus; DSLR styled design is a pleasure to use
Weak Tracking AF; Higher resolution sensor would have been welcome; Intimidating, overcomplicated controls
The Lumix GH4 probably could have turned up just with 4K video and still gotten people talking, so it's to Panasonic's credit that a clear and conscious effort has been made to create a camera with more to it than that.This camera is a solid attempt ...

4k footage looks noisy at 800 ISO and above, 1080p footage uses non-integer crop, Rolling shutter artefacts in some conditions, Still photo quality no better than other MFT cameras, Shooting speed slows to 5-6fps with continuous AF, No phase-detect / hybrid AF, No built-in stabilization, unlike Olympus MFT models, No in-camera panorama mode.
It's hard not to be impressed by the Lumix GH4. It handles confidently as a stills camera and is an absolute joy for video. As I've mentioned throughout my review, it is not a low light monster: the 1:1 crop for 4k video from the relatively small sens...
Very fast single AF with 20 (RAW + jpg in full resolution) to 40 bps (lower resolution jpg), Very fast: continuous AF: 12 bps (mechanical shutter: RAW + jpg) to 20 bps (electronic shutter: RAW + jpg), Fastest shutter speed of 1/8000 and 100 ISO expansion
