Panasonic GH4 review

The GH4's 2x focal length conversion helped with this shot taken at the telephoto end of the 14-140mm kit lens to give a nicely filled frame. Click here to see the full resolution image.

The automatic white balance system has produced an excellent result here. The colours look natural and the exposure is perfect. Click here to see the full resolution image.

This handheld shot was taken at ISO 1600. Noise is very well controlled and the details look great at normal viewing sizes. Click here to view the full resolution image.

Pushing the contrast setting of the Monochrome Photo Style to its maximum setting has produced a great result-in-camera, but it was nice to have the raw file with all the colour data to convert post-capture if necessary. Click here to view the full resolution image.

Rather than underexposing in the face of the bright sky and reflections, the GH4's metering system delivered a bright result. In fact we dialled in -1/3EV exposure compensation to retain a bit more of the sky. Click here to view the full resolution image.

The vari-angle screen proved useful here to allow a low angle shot. The AF point was set with a tap of the screen and the level view ensured that the horizon looks right. Click here to view the full resolution image.

This scene proved quite tricky for the GH4's AF system with the 14-140mm lens at it's maximum focal length even though the AF point was set at the edge of the man's silhouette to give contrast. Click here to view the full resolution image.

There's an excellent range of compatible lenses for Micro Four Thirds cameras these days. This shot was taken using the Panasonic 45mm Macro lens. Click here to view the full resolution image.
