Panasonic Firmware Update Programs for LUMIX G Camera DMC-GH4 (Ver.2.1) & Interface Unit DMW-YAGH (Ver.1.1) are Available

The following video presents [NEW] Panasonic LUMIX GH4 “Dalia’s Dream” in 4K by Scott Rhea BEHIND-THE-SCENES:

A world-renowned film director Scott Rhea created a film titled “Dalia’s Dream” in 4K using Panasonic LUMIX GH4.
Scott says: “Shooting with the GH4 was nothing short amazing as the 4k image that the camera produces rivals that of cameras costing exponentially more. The size, weight, and functionality of this camera were extremely well engineered and both user friendly to photographers of all skill levels. I found the touch screen interactivity to be faster and more accessible than previous working conventions and the focus confirmation feature something that sets this camera apart from others. Variable frame rate options, low light capability, and stellar image quality make this camera an extreme value and has just taken first position in my camera bag.”

Panasonic recently released the firmware update programs for the LUMIX G Interchangable lens camera DMC-GH4 (Ver.2.1) and the Interface Unit DMW-YAGH (Ver.1.1),
