That is an exceedingly thorough rundown of the video capabilities of the GH4.
 
Glad to see DPReview putting more emphasis on video.

I will  be making extensive posts on lenses.... new... old, vintage... cheap and expensive and what their main good points are and how to get the best out of them.
And also some useful articles on general lens use that will help improve your shooting and make things more dare I say more 'cinematic' and less 'video' which seems to be what alot are asking for.
so say tuned folks and watch this space......

If Sony wasn't so afraid that a possible A7000 would mess up with their A7's sales and market, we could have expected a a higher end one with mic and headphone inputs and that would had been great.
 
I'm also curious about the GX7 vs A6000 tests in terms of IQ, overall operation but also AF in video. How does it compare to the GM1 in terms of video quality? That should give us about where the GX7 stands against the A6000.

Great news.
Would be great to compare also with panasonic G6 in terms of video and still.
Best.

Shame about the audio. If it had the jacks I would buy one.
I'm not really that happy with my A7.
 
Great article again. Thanks.

I brought the sample clip into FCP X to inspect on the histogram, and as suspected, it records into the "super-whites", just like many of Sony's cameras.  So by lowering the highlights a bit, you actually recover some more detail and increase the perceived dynamic range.
 
I also noticed some of the artifacts of poor compression around the shadow areas of flesh tones, which was one of the big drawbacks of the NEX-5n and made it almost impossible to color grade effectively (especially at high ISO).  The RX cameras don't seem to have this problem.
 
I'm curious about:
 
- Clean HDMI - I doubt it'll be 10-bit, but maybe at least 4:2:2
 
- pixel binning: I've noticed that the Rx10 and Rx100 are sharper than the D5200 and 5dmkIII because the RX cameras use full-sensor readout.  Would be great if Sony somehow implemented a similar downscaling method in the A6000.
 
- overheating: still an issue?
 
- rolling shutter - was awful on the NEX5n; maybe they've taken strides toward improving it.
 
- Is video autofocus improved, or just photo?
 
- really a pity they didn't go for 35mbps at 60p. Just saying.
