I help you master your LUMIX cameras and grow your solo video business. I've been doing freelance video since 2012 and have been using LUMIX cameras since the GH4.
I found LUMIX cameras have fit my workflow perfectly because of the hybrid versatility. I've used the GH5 since it came out and currently am running a setup that includes the GH6, S5, G9ii and S5ii/S5IIX.
These videos will teach you how to get the most out of your LUMIX camera settings and features for cinematic video or simple content that needs pushed out quickly.
You can also expect videos on some great accessories that will help make shooting with LUMIX even better.

Thanks you so much caleb 🙏🏼
Thank you. And for hlg?
Do you also have any luts for hlg?
pretty cool...i think i will order some when im near my laptop
What about sound, do you use the internal mic or a field recorder and time code?
Anybody who has been shooting video on MFT cameras with speed boosters should wait for these features to appear on a comparable full frame camera unless you need them right now.
Hello Sir! Do you have any idea of how to tighten the lock when it’s loose? I’d appreciate a response🤝
Their not their lecia would expect them to cost even more
Caleb, what light stands do you use with the SmallRig 120D/B lights?
LOL the LUMIX Lab is impossible to use for transferring LUTs and photos between the S9 and the iPhone. It fails to connect via WiFi after pairing Bluetooth. Useless app.
Off topic I know, but what make/model of tripod are you using there?
I don't want to hear anyone complain about the GH7 not having enough recording formats.
Hallo Caleb, I already have a GH5II but I need better low light performance. I'm so undecided between purchasing a second handed GH5s or waiting for a new GH7 (I don't need some professional stuff like RAW and something like that). What do you think about this question?
All Panasonic products are heavily overpriced especially $2000 s52....... oh wow did we just pay For trip to Japan for every UA-cam camera scammers...... no more anything from Panasonic anything from this company
Apple ProRes RAW sounds great...in theory... But can someone name a real world shooting scenario where it could be used with the GH7? That kind of quality probably needed for cinema or streaming or high end commercial work...but those jobs won't use a GH7. Also it would be nice if Panasonic could update this menu as shooting in mov and switching from 60 open gate to 4K 24p seems like a lot of scrolling. Like either a resolution or fps based "shelves" system where you select for example the res and inside that category you'll only find the options for that res would be a pretty easy FW update and a lot easier to jump between modes
GH7 = GH6 UGRADED WITH HYBRID AF
Does the gh7 auto focus work with speed booster matched with Sigma 18-35
Can we please stop making videos about lenses and cameras where 80% of the video is NOT filmed with the lenses and the camera? Like... I don't need to see you holding the camera while talking. But if you film with the camera and lens, then I'm watching you talk while looking at what the camera is actually capable of. thanks
The video has nothing to do with image quality, nor is it a review of the lens. Go kick rocks if you’re bored. Additionally there are video examples of the lenses within the video.
Wanna see a review where people test the AF with say a cannon 24 - 105mm and a metabones speed booster. Then I’ll know it’s for me.
My luminance spot meter shows a percentage instead of the exposure stops
Think most cameras brought out these days are made overboard. Has specs that will rarely be used. Only people who will use these specs is content 'creator's ' who need to make video content when they can't think of anything else to talk about. The GH5 had open gate 5k. Yet it was hardly talked about. Content camera creator's want so much today it seems camera brands are making cameras for UA-camrs rather then for those using cameras for clients or wedding's. Using the full specs on the GH7 a CFEXPRESS type b card is needed. A 64gb card cost £89 with the 256gb costing close to £200. With most shooting a 64gb card won't hold much memory so the user will be needing a 128gb card witch cost £139.
I think for the GH7 Panasonic should have kept the colors science of the GH6 instead of the G9II. The G9II colors are not bad, better than the GH5 in my opinion, but the GH6 is in another league.
What's the point of having great color science if the person only use the camera to film themselves and short be rolls? Worked on weddings and clinet vidoes never had the bride or clinet ask if my camera has great color science.
They've addressed this. They need sharpness for the PDAF. PDAF is what the market demanded.
@@adidabax6809 What this has to do with the colors ? And I'm not sure about the need of sharpness for PDAF. The G9II has much less edge sharpening than the S5II and yet this camera uses PDAF too. Also, when using BRAW on the S5II, there is no bad edge sharpening, the details are perfect and yet the S5II uses PDAF in BRAW.
@@adidabax6809 said before the GH7 came out it was going to be what the GH6 was ment to be..felt lumix rushed the Gh6 due to the demend. Lumix users rushed to buy it then lumix release the S5ii/x with PDAF. Then the G9II now the GH7. All lumix users wanted was a camera with PDAF.
At least it has everything the gh6 has!!ohyeah🎉it looks so big in the thumbnail😂 reminds me of the old burger king whopper commercials. But i got these small hands😂🎉Thank you
😂only shoot c4k 24p 422 10bit and 4.9k open gate mode with my gh5 So why i need to upgrade to gh7??
Nobody compare the quality between gh6 and gh7 😂 Really feel disappointed As a gh5 user i don't need such 12 pages option of video formats I just need a powerful voice that remind me go to gh7 without hesitation 😂😂
Autofocus my friend
Dynamic range, color, and autofocus.
@@Giovanni-Giorgio only have one lens leica dg 8-18 I use mb speebooster for ef lens most of the time
@@D3AL1O agree !but only a little ,i want more information that gh7 compare with gh5
I would like to see if gh7 works well using a Viltrox adapter with sigma 18 35, it's possible ? Thank you Caleb because of you I bought a gh5 and I was very happy with it and now I have a gh6. ❤
Why you never shoot mp4? I never used mov with my gh5, did i miss something?
If you want to color grade you want the more robust files. 10 bit etc…
i've pretty much memorised the video recording modes now. it's a shame 60p open gate is pixel/pixel (cropped) and not even full sensor...
dude i love it! there are definitely a lot of shooting modes! love the space my dude!
I only shoot 4k 24p or sometimes just 1080p, and only for my idie film stuff, and some UA-cam shorts. I'm thinking my G9II will be good enough. Now if Lumix offers a $500 trade in bonus again maybe I'll get the GH7.
Thanks for the video. Can you also show us some cinematic footage with the GH7?
We need a compare that gh5 vs gh7 with same lens at same video format😂
@@Jdtstudio I will do that as soon my GH7 arrives ☺️
It will be the same as the GH6 or G9II 😅😅😅. Cinematic is movement motion. Can shoot good Cinematic with a iPhone or latest smartphone.
@@orinorio1 Go shoot with your iPhone then
@@kenslyder don't have one. Have a friend who bought the newest iPhone just to shoot videos with. The word cinematic is just thrown today by UA-camrs who spend more time talking to the camera then behind it. Even photo based UA-camrs say how to make a photo cinematic 😆 🤣. Just shows they have no idea of what it means and saying it as click bait.
What phone so you use as a photographer and everyday person, iPhone or Android, which model? Anythig you can only do on one platform over the other?
I have two GH5’s, one GH5 Mk2, and one GH6. I shoot live theatre, concerts and dance shows. I have been using the GH6 for closeups so I have been using manual focus and the focus limiter and it has been pretty reliable. I must say that I’d really like the autofocus of the GH7 or the G9 II.
Does GH7 photo quality improve significantly from GH6?
Is the Gh7 better than the Gh5 in low light situations?
I have been using both for a long time and they are excellent. I also use the 200mm f2.8 (same filter thread). It is a killer lens too. I think the 25-50 is probably the best lenses Lumix has made. You don't mention close focus, but it is good on both lenses. The lack of good closes focus on my FF system, is a real plus for m43s.
Panasonic kinda kicked users in the nuts by following the GH6 closely with the GH7 feels like they needed to deliver the GH6 but then had some extra ideas and put them in the GH7 and cashed in again, GH7 should have just been the GH6
Can you leave a long telephoto lens on and it'll fit in that camera spot? I find when I'm at a sports even I'm mostly shooting on a my 50-200 ... so would rather have that on than have to change lenses right away.
Do you think GH5 footage will mix ok with S5IIx? I do mostly social media content for clients whos videos just end up on IG and FB. I'm upgrading to a S5IIx but am considering only getting one instead of two, and then just using my GH5 as a b cam when I rarely need one. Thoughts on this?
As has been the case for a while, the GH6 has more AF than the BM cams. So if the GH6 is not useable, what should the BM owners do? haha They are all great cams.
Hi. Can you tell me where in the G9ii settings I can enable focus lock by tap on the display in manual mode? In gh5 I could just tap on the display to lock focus.
nice! what is the difference to grade the vlog like you did and simply go in the left pane where the LUT library is is and there choose the panasonic lut or any other lut? Seems to work fine..
im running 2 GH4's still, trying to decide if i should get a gh5mk2, 6, or even a 7. i cant afford to upgrade both, so would i be able to edit them to match??
I feel like you get more value out of the 12-35/35-100mm f/2.8 combo. I currently shoot with the Leica 12-35mm f/2.8, the f/1.7 zooms are attractive however still can't get over the price tag. Great content.
you don't even need the 25-50, just get the 10-25 and 35-100 2.8 and just crop in from 25 to 35.
Maybe look at Shane (Geeky Nerdy Techy) how to test AF - just sitting in the same focal plane and sippin' coffee won't do much. Also you seem to notoriously f* up your AF sensitivity/stickyness settings in every video - also: did you update the firmware of your speedbooster at all - there was one in mid november 2023 ('Improved AF accuracy with older lenses that do not report distance information')..
ISO "frequency"? Who uses that term? ASA/ISO in film is the sensitivity of the emulsion to light, in digital cameras is equivalent to gain - no frequencies anywhere!?
When full frame start to have f2 f1.8 zoom lens, mft still has majority zoom lens at f5.6(the look), only two lens has f3.4 look. And I do not see any sign Panasonic will invest in m43 high quality fast zoom lens.
One generally chooses Micro 4/3 for size, weight, and cost considerations. Shallow depth of field is NOT always a desirable commodity. I use Micro 4/3 so I can get MORE depth of field for macro work, not less. There is a purpose for every format from m43 to medium format. Each has unique characteristics to exploit for different purposes.
You are partially wrong. Yes, the 25-50 does not extend when zooming. It's all internal. However, the 10-25 DOES extend and trombone out. I own both of these lenses and they are spectacular.
I've been through a ton of MFT lenses (and those sigma art badboys) for my GH5, GH5ii, GH6 and soon to be GH7 and I bought the Leica 10-25 & 25-50 last year and they're my power couple for A/B talking heads. I also like the size, sadly for a lot of clients they see big, impressive, looking equipment and think "professional" ... sad but true! The size is fine for me, if I wanted a travel lens then you've got the 35-100mm and all sorts. These guys are beautiful and I'm happy to see some firmware updates!
Hey really smooth build. Any ideas if I can add a rode microphone on top of this somewhere?
