Product details

The new Lumix GH4 combines outstanding photo quality and 4K video recording - the world's first* mirrorless interchangeable lens camera - with professional features, making it the perfect choice for professionals.

The
Lumix GH4's new 16.05 megapixel digital live MOS sensor is impressive with its high sensitivity and response speed, which also significantly reduces the rolling shutter effect for photo and video recordings with an electronic shutter.
The four-core quad-core CPU makes the newly developed "Venus Engine" image processor even more powerful.
This guarantees fast signal processing for high-speed continuous shooting and 4K video recording.
GH4's effective noise reduction systems allow extended sensitivities from ISO 100 (new) to ISO 25,600.
Image quality is further enhanced by improvements in sensitivity, gradation, resolution and color rendering.

The GH4 allows high-speed continuous shooting of up to 40 (RAW)/100 (JPG) images at 12 fps (AF-S) or 7 fps (AFC) to capture fast-moving objects in sharp focus.

Große Schwächen lassen sich bei der Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH4 nicht finden, dies sollte man bei einem hohen Preis von 1300 Euro jedoch auch erwarten können. Sie glänzt mit einer hohen Bildqualität, sie bietet eine starke Ausstattung und auch das Tempo bewegt sich auf einem hohen Niveau.
