27May Panasonic GH4 on a 1/4 20 Mic stand mounting adapter

I know the Panasonic GH4 is a lightweight compact camera, but this really shows how little it takes to support it. I wanted to position the GH4 above a table for some quick 4k hands on product shots, but none of my tripods really allow me to get the camera into the right position. Normally I […]

23May Swivl pan and tilt Multipurpose robotic platform – First impressions

Short rant about Kickstarter Before I dive into the Swivl, first a little note about kickstarter. You might have noticed that I no longer post much about new camera related kickstarter projects. That’s because out of the 9 or so projects I’ve backed so far only three projects went off without a hitch. Four had major delays (like […]

17May Panasonic 25mm f1.4 lens, a pretty affordable prime.

Even though I picked up the coveted Voigtlander 25mm f0.95 lens I still like to have auto focus when possible. With that in mind I just grabbed the child size Panasonic 25mm f1.4 lens. The Voigtlander will still be my shallow depth of field monster for the Panasonic GH4 but at a price of around $450 used the 25mm […]

16May Sony A7s $2498 official pricing announced.

At 12:00 A.M. this morning Sony officially announced pricing and a release date for the new A7s. When I first heard about this camera I was very disappointed at the lack of internal 4k recording, but after getting my hands on it at NAB it completely changed my mind. While I’m disappointed that Sony chose […]

14May Panasonic GH4 weather seal testing

If you’ve been wondering why I’ve been missing from the internet for the past week and half or so, it’s because I was in France and Iceland. I made the decision to travel with only the Panasonic GH4 for the trip so I could shoot some 4k test footage and get a better feel for the camera. […]

02May Panasonic GH4 finally showed up

The fast shipping ebay seller ended up getting the GH4 body to me faster than B&H and as of this morning (writing this at 4 a.m.) prices have started to drift up to around $2000 if you want a GH4 before the end of next month. My B&H order did finally ship so maybe that’ll […]

02May Samsung 4k monitor U28D590D – First Impressions

The Samsung U28D590D 28 inch 4k monitor just showed up from Amazon. I picked this up over easter while it was on sale for $599 but shipping was delayed several times on my order before it finally made it to Fedex. Sometimes Amazon Prime shipping just doesn’t live up to its super fast delivery promise. Inside the […]

28Apr New Transcend 64 GB UHS-3 SDXC 95MB/s cards

Looks like the first round of UHS-3 Class “guaranteed for real-time video recording at 4k” memory cards are starting to hit the market and Transcend’s 64GB SDXC cards are winning the price war at $49.95 for a 64GB. I’ve had pretty good luck over the years with Transcend’s CF memory cards, but my experience with […]

28Apr B&H has the Panasonic GH4 in stock

I haven’t heard anything from B&H on shipping out my order, but it does appear they have the Panasonic GH4 in stock So nows the time to order if you are in the market. I’m not really sure yet if the GH4 will completely sell out like the GH3 when it was released or if they’ll […]

28Apr Want the Panasonic GH4 sooner?

I know a lot of you, like me, pre ordered the Panasonic GH4. It can be a little frustrating when others have already received their camera and you’re still waiting for B&H or Amazon to deliver. If you can’t stand waiting another week and don’t mind spending an extra $100, there’s a seller on ebay […]
