Great video! I recently noticed the long battery life indeed and it made me super happy. My reason #8 is the anti alias filter in the GH4. It makes it my favorite for reproducing images from books or old magazines and newspapers. It also comes in handy when a TV set or a computer screen is in the image.

I have both GH4 and GH5 and I agree with all your arguments. Love my little GH4. For me the biggest strenghts of GH5 are IBIS (which is very useful for my handheld workflow), 4k 60fps and size. GH4 is too light and small for me. I was really sad that they removed 50mbs option from GH5, now files are huge and my laptop must work way harder with those files. I have GH5 2 years already and I still can't trust focus peaking. Great battery life, simplicity and amazing focus peaking makes GH4 way better camera than GH5 for me. Also my GH4 has some retro vibes in video quality, I can't explain what exactly it is, but in general video from GH4 is more pleasant to the eye.

Funny about the LCD screen! I used the GH4 for almost five years, and recently switched to the G9. The thing that got me was how the G9's screen was less clear, and thereby harder to manually focus than the GH4! For this reason, I'm thankful that G9 autofocus is much more useable. I stick with the G9 because of 4k 50p, IBIS, 150p and improved colour. But the GH4 is still surprisingly good by comparison.

The GH4 actually also still gets good use in automotive settings, because the vibrations from being rigged in lets say a car that's being driven hard would throw IBIS totally off and create IBIS wobble. I've always been shooting Canon for photos, but I got the GH4 many years ago for multirotor/drone shots and because it could do 4k video, when none of the Canon DSLRs could. That, and sometimes you really don't want to lug a big Canon 5D Mk3 around. Upgraded to the GH5 eventually, then the GH5 Mk2. Still have my GH4 though. It's a great little backup and as you say, it has it's purposes and advantages.

They would not allow the customers to handle the G9 so I could not compare the grip to that model. I feel that if the camera feels good in the hand one actually want to shoot more with it. I think if the grip on the GH5 has been improved over the GH4 then people with large hands may prefer the larger body/grip over the GH4 although the weight might be an issue after a whole day of shooting. When I moved up from the FZ200 to the FZ300 I did not like the new grip and the increased weight.

I my experience the GH4s match the GH5 pretty darn well. The GH5s might be a little different from what Ive heard and Ive shot with them both together but I didnt edit the footage so its hard to say.

The gh5 and gh5s feature sets would really be great for me to have, but I've been shooting interviews and multicam stuff with two identical set ups (GH4 and 12-35 f2.8 or the 35-100mm f2.8 if I've got to be across the room. Those two lens even have some subtle differences). I'm kinda thinking about one GH5 or 5s and just continuing to use the GH4 for multicam work with the GH5 as a third angle if I need it. I could pick up the 42.5 mm voigtlander to go with my 17.5mm for interviews and I think that might make a bigger difference than a 2nd GH5 for a little less money. I've always been amazed at the GH4 battery life too and would probably like to continue using it for interviews for that reason. A GH4 with two name brand batteries in the camera with grip is great because you can quit even thinking about battery life if you go in charged and are trying to run productions with no crew or 1-2 other people. I didn't realize the GH5 was so much worse until seeing your video.

The 10 bit in the GH5 among a few other features is super nice

You can add Atomos V and get 10 bit, it will be still cheaper than GH5

@@larrylarry1368 Yeah if you want to get the best DR but it's an additional $100. I was looking towards Z Cam E2C which almost same price (Z Log is free) but it has huge Rolling Shutter issue. And minimal ISO is 800

@@akmalsalikhov3732 That's exactly what I was also looking into but the retailer told me that the rolling shutter of E2C is horrendous. Furthermore, all Z cam cameras warranty is China based. Yes, you will need to send the camera to China for warranty service.

Its still amazing! Hard to believe its the first mirrorless camera to do 4k. There's some real legacy in these little cameras.

Hi! What special feature is going on in your videos taken with GH5 and Leica 10-25 to make AF work so horrendous? I saw many reviews and tests of this lens and while not perfect AF was always decent. But in your footage and in Gerald's Undone comparison to Sigma 18-35 AF in video is appaling. Do you do something differently or all these tests where somehow biased? I really need lens with these parameters and although I plan to use MF 90% of time, still this is unsettling. Is it about using V-logL...?

Using the log definitely didn’t help and I think it was my focus settings on this video. The part where it goes completely out of focus I was using single point and I simply wasn’t inside the box so it just focused on the background. I would check out some of my other videos for better auto focus examples where it actually works pretty well. I plan on making an entire autofocus video at some point but it’s a lot of stuff to go over and you really have to know when and how to use Autofocus on the GH5.
