As usual...I'm so late to the party! Very cool piece and loving that history. I'm gonna bet that MFT and GH line has a few good years left in it. Thanks again!
OG GH1 user here. Picked one up when they were like $400US and shot sooooooo much on it. Upgraded to the GH2 a few years later, shot some of my best stuff (all the stuff I'm proud of) including music videos, promos and wedding films with it. Was an absolute workhorse, only really let down by a weak codec that was fixed by those firmware hacks. Been shooting weddings and other shiz on the G7 since, still a workhorse only really outshone in my stables by the BMPCC4K. Sure it doesn't have full frame image, has that stupid M43 crop and has no headphone jack... but it ain't no slouch. You'll pry my G7 out of my cold dead hands... or when Panasonic release another 800 dollar 4K camera (like the G7) with headphone, mic and dual native ISO... I might then consider the upgrade. I'm no fanboy, I just saw the cameras for the workhorses they were. Without them I wouldn't have the body of work I have today. :)
i really really want to love panasonic gh4/5 BUT the huge problem is autofocus. with canon's dual pixel AF, i can run around and never have to worry about subject out of focus.
This is a fantastic series. When I first entered the industry I was really confused about what differentiated a Canon 5Dii with the 5Diii. Not terribly hard to search for info, but back then, I had no idea what to look for. This is an awesome way to look at the history of these tools that pervade our work places, especially for those who are new to all of the nuances. Really looking forward to the next one. Thanks for doing these.
What about a gh6 with the s35 5.7k sensor of the EVA, that could record proress raw esxternaly or proress 444 externally🤔 will be the last gh series camera
Same tho. Of course it feels better to shoot stills on a canon, but the gh5 is so versatile in comparison to what's on the market (and nearly in price range) Perfect cam for me.
This camera is great for photos when you know what are you doing. With a speedbooster and good lighting you can fake it for Full Frame. He said maybe that to make fun that you buy this camera FIRST for the video specs and photography come next. But this is a Great Hybrid (GH) mirrorless camera
Full-frame is absurdly overrated and most cameras can't shoot log properly (8-bit storage codecs are unacceptable.) While the GH4 was a massive thing, I personally think the G7 was the real game changer. Anyone can buy a G7. They were so cheap compared to the GH4 and did 4K at 24/30fps. Came with a decent lens too.
Whaaaaaaat i thought it was about GH5s , its just an history of the panasonic cameras :/ , anyways its always good to know the history too, but come on can you really make a video all about GH5s? thanks guys love you!
I'm running a Panasonic HVX200E Developed back in like 2006 it is more or less vintage by now, but it was a professional camera back then. Are they any good compared to armature cameras now?
I just discovered the History Deep Dive series and I love it. Keep it up! Also, I just got jealous about the GH5-series and nearly started getting buyers remorse for my Fujifilm X-T3 purchase. But then I saw that the GH5 is 1300€ - that's 500€ over what I got my used X-T3 a year ago and 600€ above what the X-T3 costs new with a good deal. Now I don't feel as bad (thinking my 1080p120 is great for what I paid, for example) and have a hell of a lot more respect for Micro Four-Thirds and Panasonic cameras.
What was Eric's first camera? It looked a lot like the PV-GS35, which was my first camcorder in 2005. That thing was amazing for its time and my knowledge level. 30x optical zoom, a whole 720 x 480 SD image...seriously though I learned how to make movies on that thing. Then jumped the Canon HV-30 for crazy mind blowing HD in 2009, and then to the GH3 in 2013...which I stuck with till 2017 with the GH5. Now I use that and the BMPCC4K. It's wild how much technology has evolved in the last 15 years since I got started making movies.
wait a minute that Tester 13 hack was ACTUALLY available for the GH1 as well. did it in 2010 mainly for the higher bit rate. We couldn't afford a 5Dmii for this low budget indie feature we were shooting haha.
Gh5s is a great camera. I think for 2019 crow they need to upgrade the resolution to 6k 10 bit and 4k 60fps in 10bit. And dont buy this camera if you want to shoot video using autofocus. its terrible in this regard. other wise Gh5s is killer camera in market.
_Next deep dive subject:_ shooting with 360 cameras, editing the shots and finishing with over-capture. Great for travel shooting where you just carry the camera and shoot everything, then use that footage to do the panning and tilting and zooming in post.
You really need to change the title to "The History of Panasonic". It took you 8 minutes in a 10 minute video to "kind of" talk about the GH5s, and there wasn't anything that you revealed that hasn't been talked about before.
Team 974 love my g9. Use it mostly for photography but I have done video with it as well. If you do more video, stick with gh5. If you take more photos, the g9 is a beast.
@@mikedionr I ended up getting the g9 for video. The stabilization and features it has over the gh5s seemed better. Plus I got it slightly used for 700 on ebay. I think I got a great deal. Loving it!
Can I ask why the footage of Eric looks so terrible, and even worse when punched in? Can’t Indy Mogul put a little time into getting better video quality?
Sirayuth Taramas yea, I was wondering why there was no credit?? It’s one of my favourite channels and I recognized both stills and video from The Hybrid Shooter!?
I didnt get a notification this video was posted, despite having the Bell activated, only found out about this video after seeing the preview on Instagram
I’m still using GH4s for video work. I hope they don’t abandon M43. I love the size. I have a full frame system for photo work and absolutely hate getting it out and lugging it around.
The GH5s doesn’t rival Sony cameras in low light. That’s a stretch. The A7iii and A7s will eat it alive. No question. Also, is this an AD for Panasonic. Kinda feels like it
Actually I think they're doing histories of the different camera companies. They already did the history of Black Magic. ua-cam.com/video/Royh88jdhyM/v-deo.html
Should I sell my GH5 and trade up to a GH5S. Been looking at A7III but the 30min record time put me off and the S line is very pricey not to mention more limited 4k than GH5. I assume bigger sensors more heat and processing required.
I kind of want to see an episode focusing on the Canon Vixia series. I used a Vixia HF R300 for years before upgrading to the G40. The interface is the same, but the camera is about three pounds and $1500 more. It's interesting to me that they're in the same product line, despite one being a very hobby-oriented "vlog" style camera from 2012, and the other being a heavy hitter in the prosumer market.
Still shooting GH2 for work.. hacked as expected... its has held up very very well over the years for our production work.. they are surly ready for replacement now .... but dang those hacked gh2 was a epic back in the day .
Small inaccuracy: Metabones speed boosters first came out before the GH4 and costed about $400. I had one with my GH3 and Sigma 18-35mm (Sigma's first art lens)
wow I'm Japanese and seriously embraced for the first time these companies named here are all Japanese companies. are we so obsessed in making cameras?? lol gonna search leica hasselblad arri blackmagic red trivias now.
Best summation of the evolution of Panasonic and their camera lines. I was elated to see that even through Panasonic has constantly be in competition with other cameras, they have been the first in many categories. I personally own a GH3, and will continue to be a Panasonic loyalist.
I see they still have those loose triangular metal parts for the strap to attach to. Never noticed it before Casey Neistat mentioned how much of a pain those are when they rattle around and bounce off the body.
Wait, this title should be *the history of Panasonic cameras* do a tutorial on clickbait
Yeah, it's a cool video, but it has almost nothing to do with the title.
As usual...I'm so late to the party! Very cool piece and loving that history. I'm gonna bet that MFT and GH line has a few good years left in it. Thanks again!

I 've been using my GH4 mainly for photography...have not shot a video yet. I am new to photography and got the GH4 to learn both photo and video.
Good rundown Erik,,, thanks.
Good video. Title is a bit off.
Thanks a lot. It was an interesting and funny video!
i really really want to love panasonic gh4/5 BUT the huge problem is autofocus. with canon's dual pixel AF, i can run around and never have to worry about subject out of focus.
dablet00 Which AF setting are you using? Also, are you shooting video or photos? Your AF settings should differ depending on which you’re shooting.
This is a fantastic series. When I first entered the industry I was really confused about what differentiated a Canon 5Dii with the 5Diii. Not terribly hard to search for info, but back then, I had no idea what to look for.

Thanks for doing these.
I still use my GH2 sometimes!
What about a gh6 with the s35 5.7k sensor of the EVA, that could record proress raw esxternaly or proress 444 externally🤔 will be the last gh series camera
dud is that a nv-gs15, totally my first camera > now own 2 :)
What's with the title? There was nothing new added that I didn't already know about the GH5S!
Gh5s or Sony a6400? Currently found the a6300 for 3500 on Facebook :) might just stick to that
You can buy a A6300 for roughly $500 on eBay. You sure you didn’t get ripped off?
GH5s all the way man. It's just better in...everything?
Wut this isn't about the GH5 this is about panasonic history wat[
Deal breaker is the unreliable AF.
:)
To answer your question: I use the GH5 for photos!
I shoot photos on mine regularly. Not nearly as much as I shoot video but still.
Dido
Shooting photos on the g85. My clients don't even notice lol.
Same tho. Of course it feels better to shoot stills on a canon, but the gh5 is so versatile in comparison to what's on the market (and nearly in price range) Perfect cam for me.

Still use my gh4 as main cam and use it as photography cam to it works
Full-frame is absurdly overrated and most cameras can't shoot log properly (8-bit storage codecs are unacceptable.) While the GH4 was a massive thing, I personally think the G7 was the real game changer. Anyone can buy a G7. They were so cheap compared to the GH4 and did 4K at 24/30fps.

gh2 and 5d mark2 2009-2013 good time
Being the proud owner of the BMPCC4K, I would like to see a similar in-depth video on it's features...and stuff.
No shoutout to the people’s footage you used for this video??? Come on...
It’s in the upper right corner...
I'm pretty sure they literally credited everyone dude
You mean the name of the video but not the user? Still kind of lazy to just credit the name of the video.
Ayechino Prod. Not at all. Just looking out for creators and where their credit is due.
I thought it was quite rude that he butchered someone's name, then proceeds to give him a nickname because he was lazy.
Didn't even research on how to properly pronounce it. 🤔 Probably thought it was so funny.
I'm running a Panasonic HVX200E Developed back in like 2006 it is more or less vintage by now, but it was a professional camera back then. Are they any good compared to armature cameras now?
8 minutes and 23 seconds until you talk about the subject of the video. Good info, but misleading title.
Can you do a video on Lumix G7
Yeah! Just got it as a gift for my birthday
I just discovered the History Deep Dive series and I love it. Keep it up!

I've been watching you guys since forever!! 💕 Sooo happy for the steady stream of content.

Glad to see the shoutout to Vitaly Kisalev: that's why I bought and still (occasionally) use my GH2.

Been thinking of G9. Lighter, cheaper, and IBS. Thoughts?
Team 974 love my g9. Use it mostly for photography but I have done video with it as well. If you do more video, stick with gh5. If you take more photos, the g9 is a beast.

Seriously love that you're back on Indy Mogul Eric!!
Same
Change the dayum tittle of this video Indy Mogul.
I recall this video being called "Everything you didn't know about the GH5S" when I added it to my playlist. Am I going crazy?
After reading other comments, no. It looks like they re-titled it.
Next topic - FujiFilm
The gh5s is a legend!
I'm still rockin' my GH4's to this very day.
im just new to the channel and i thought this guy is nick frost. XD
Does The Hybrid Shooter know you use his footage?
Sirayuth Taramas yea, I was wondering why there was no credit?? It’s one of my favourite channels and I recognized both stills and video from The Hybrid Shooter!?
Sweet video. I hope I can afford that GH5S after that S line comes out and ppl start selling their GH cams.
Waiting for your Fuji XT3 breakdown ;)
I think I found a whoopsie at 2:44 :D
I didnt get a notification this video was posted, despite having the Bell activated, only found out about this video after seeing the preview on Instagram
I was excited to see this video, personally i Own 2 Gh1’s and a Gh2
Eric Beck not my new dad. Very offended
why did he film this on a green screen?
lool
Currently using a G85 with a Viltrox EF-M2 speedbooster, Tokina 11-16, Sigma 18-35, and a Sigma 56. Paired with a Ronin-M and I'm set!
Hey that's my video in there about the metabones lol, thanks a lot for the shout out guys 😒
The history of Fujifilm
2:50 it could shoot 4k.
:|
I am dead.
This is why I love Panasonic.
I’m still using GH4s for video work. I hope they don’t abandon M43. I love the size. I have a full frame system for photo work and absolutely hate getting it out and lugging it around.
Is that a Tanzanian flag @0:52

Still shooting GH2 for work.. hacked as expected... its has held up very very well over the years for our production work.. they are surly ready for replacement now .... but dang those hacked gh2 was a epic back in the day .
Thanks for making this video!!! Its a nice history lesson on Panasonic's achievements! However, I think your title is misleading.
I really dig Griffin Hammond. Can’t wait for the GH6...
Thank you 🌴🙏🏽
Small inaccuracy: Metabones speed boosters first came out before the GH4 and costed about $400. I had one with my GH3 and Sigma 18-35mm (Sigma's first art lens)
great videjo
I take photos with my GH5. Check them out on Facebook: Kelownas Good Stuff
wow I'm Japanese and seriously embraced for the first time these companies named here are all Japanese companies.
are we so obsessed in making cameras?? lol
gonna search leica hasselblad arri blackmagic red trivias now.
Yo why didn’t these show up in my subscriptions I stumbled on them looking through the channel!! This series is good stuff!!!
Cool
Awesome video Eric we miss background FX please bring it back cheers SUPER TIME LAPS!!,

Love this style of video !!
Awesome!
Koh-Nos-Kay... That's how you pronounce Konosuke :). Fantastic video though!
I'm guessing the days of cheap prop builds are gone and just about cameras now?
do one on that Sony camera that let you see through people's clothes next !
Give me the gh6. I want it. I need. (And I feel like it might be time for it, right?)
