Panasonic GH4 was so popular in 2014 and gained “Gold Award” from Dpreview with a very high score of 85%. The Micro Four Thirds camera is capable of capturing 4K videos at a frame rate of up to 30fps.

The specs list for the Panasonic GH4 camera includes 16MP Live MOS sensor and Venus Engine IX processor with an enhanced fast and accurate Auto Focus (AF) system (approximately 0.07 seconds).

Panasonic GH5 is now rumored to be the GH4’s successor, the mirrorless camera with a Micro Four Thirds sensor is said to be capable of shooting 4K videos at 60fps and record 8K videos.

There is no detailed specifications or release date of the GH4 replacement camera. The upcoming GH5 has a long way to go before becoming official. Our expectation is that the Panasonic GH5 should arrive in 2015. Possible event could be the NAB Show in April, 2015. Stay tuned!
