PANASONIC GH4 BLK CAMERA BODY
What can the PANASONIC GH4 BLK CAMERA BODY do? As a low light compact camera, the better question might be: what can’t it do? When you’re talking about a camera body with a premier viewfinder, Wi-Fi® connectivity, plenty of luminance adjustment, focus peaking—you’re talking about a camera body with “the works.”
Product Highlights
- It begins with the technical specs, and boy does the Panasonic GH4 camera body have it where it counts, including 4K 24p cinematic video—which, if you’re counting, is the world’s first DSLM camera recording video in that quality.
- The focus compatibility with your favorite lenses allows for both manual focus and autofocus modes, giving you more control over your shorts—or, if you prefer it, less control for more convenience.
- Easy adjustments including highlight and shadow control make it possible to put your photographs through your own manual filter before you process them to your favorite social media sites.
The Panasonic GH4 camera body is a camera body for someone who wants it all—and believes that they can have it in one single product and one single purchase at Adorama.
Learn about the PANASONIC GH4 BLK CAMERA BODY
Between the words you see thrown about when describing cameras—durability, compatibility, versatility—is another, more underrated word: reasonability. The PANASONIC GH4 BLK CAMERA BODY is the quintessential reasonable camera body. What do we here at Adorama mean by reasonable? We mean that it knows what photographers like you want, and it responds in kind by providing exactly that, offering all of the technical specifications that make a camera body attractive in the first place. It’s reasonable by giving you exactly what you need to take high-quality pictures: no muss, no fuss. And in many areas, it goes above and beyond reasonability into pure, raw photographic ability.
So how do we define reasonability at Adorama? Let’s explore the many features of the Panasonic GH4 camera body:
- Technical specs: We’re talking a newly developed 16.05 Megapixel Digital Live MOS Sensor and Venus, which helps record images at high speeds and high sensitivity. If you thought a “reasonable” camera couldn’t take stunning photographs, then you were wrong. And that’s not to say that video is exempt from this technical superiority, either. Try 4K 24p cinematic video—the world’s first digital single lens mirrorless (DSLM) camera recording video in 4K. That’s above and beyond the call of duty.
- Beautiful viewfinding. Viewfinding should be both attractive and accurate—if it’s neither of them, then you’re never going to frame the shots that you want. The Panasonic GH4 camera body accomplishes beautiful and accurate viewfinding through a high-speed dual OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) display. This LVF (Live View Finder) and rear monitor helps ensure that you get a full-resolution display of exactly what you need to know about your next shot. Without this feature, you’re just guessing.
- Wireless connectivity. If you’re a photography enthusiast, then there’s a good chance you don’t mind sharing your work once in a while. Enter the wireless capabilities of the Panasonic GH4 camera body, including the DMC-GH4 integrating with Wi-Fi® connectivity. If you want to instantly share a brilliant image you just took, then this camera body will help you do exactly that quickly and easily.
- Achieve the right lighting—every time. A bold promise, to be sure, but the luminance level adjustment on the Panasonic GH4 camera body is something to behold. The DMC-GH4 supports plenty of “postproduction” features that allow you to mess with lighting to a degree beyond the amateur. This camera is capable of capitalizing on plenty of dim light, allowing you to make the most of every picture. Pair it with a high-aperture lens and you’ll never have to fear nighttime lighting again.
- Fast focusing with easily interchangeable lenses means you’ll have no problem utilizing fast autofocus on your favorite lenses. The digital signal exchange maxes out at 240fps, giving you a focus effect that is both quick and smooth as silk.
Calling the PANASONIC GH4 BLK CAMERA BODY a “reasonable” camera might strike you as a back-handed compliment: until you read the specs and find out that in Adorama-speak, “reasonable” translates to “durable, versatile, and capable.” This camera body is capable in just about every area it serves, offering you a plethora of options for your intermediate and advanced photography. The only question is: are you reasonable enough to procure one for yourself?
