leafcutter Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 I've read a few comments about how you can extract a panning HD frame from within a static shot 4k frame. This could be quite useful for me as I shoot multiple angles of performing musicians and being able to edit in some movement in post without having to operate each camera individually would save me multiple takes. I'm just wondering though how easy it is to frame the HD shot within the 4k viewfinder. Are there any overlays on the GH4 LCD that show the HD frame and if so can you move it around (so for instance set up the shot with the subject screen right so that you can pan in the entire frame from nothing)?

Julian Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Nope... you just have to frame 4K and do the framing/panning afterwards. Maybe you can figure out something with the zoomed view for manual focusing to compose your HD frame within the shot. You'd have to calculate which zoom level gives the right crop. But it should be pretty easy to guess where your full HD frame is, as it is fits exactly 4x inside of the image. /Edit: just noticed, there is a custom guideline where you can place two lines wherever you want. If you put them exactly in the middle have your 4K frame devided in 4x 1080p. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
