4K for during 4000, there are almost poetic. Extremely affordable camera for those who are interested in both still and movie and want to take the next step in video quality. Terrible Quick AF for still images.

This is not meant to replace the GH4, but it could. Small, easy to carry for long periods of time. Buy this camera.

Best camera you can buy.
This is the best camera you can buy at this price. No other camera is this cheap with features like Panasonic G7. Totally recommended for cinematographers.
