First Short Film Shot on 4K Panasonic GH4 Emerges (Le Cas GH4)

Check out Driftwood’s Le Cas GH4 !

The Panasonic GH4 is one of the most highly anticipated cameras of 2014, mainly due to it’s stunning 4K video performance in a package that costs under $2000. Panasonic has done a great job of sharing commissioned footage from the camera on their official YouTube channel. Now for the first time we get to watch the very first independently created short film, exclusively shot the GH4. The film by Nick Driftwood  does a great job of giving an entertaining overview of Panasonic’s new camera. Really, Le Cas GH4 is one part indie short, one part GH4 camera test, and one part pseudo GH4/5D Mark III shootout.

Unfortunately, there isn’t much information available at this time about how Driftwood approached his film — lenses used and camera settings (though he does say he’ll share details soon).
