Panasonic Lumix GH4 – Updated Info.

Some interesting updates  about the Panasonic GH4 extracted from a recent interview by Zacuto’s Steve Weiss and Jens Bogehegn with Panasonic’s Matt Frazer:
“In terms of native ISO, Matt says that ISO 800 is equivalent to 0 dB in the camera, so that’s likely where the Panasonic engineers see the most dynamic range with the least amount of noise — which is usually a good place to start if you’re shooting inside

The GH4 will only give you 8-bit 4:2:0 in 4K and 1080p to the SD cards, it will give 10-bit 4:2:2 4K and 10-bit 4:2:2 1080p from the HDMI port on the camera. There aren’t any 4K HDMI external recorders just yet, but something like the Convergent Design Odyssey 7Q could theoretically get a firmware update to support it. The HDMI is completely selectable to whatever frame rate you need it to be, whether that’s 24, 25, or 30fps.”
Here’s the complete interview.
