GH4 Punta Cana Wedding

Beautiful color, especially the flesh tones!

 

Nice moments you chose to highlight from the wedding as well.

 

The GH4's limited dynamic range is evident, but I think the blown-out windows etc actually look pretty good in this piece because you kept them soft.

 

Do you think you could have recovered more highlight detail in post? Or is the GH4 pretty limited in that regard?

Thanks Rungunshoot for all the feedback. (I'm having issues with my forum account so Im logged in via FB until I can get it straightened out.)

 

There was zero color correction done. This was all edited as a quick teaser of just the gh4 footage. I think some stuff worked out very well but I really wish I had the time to cleanup and improve a lot of the middle section. There's better shots I could have used. I jsut wanted to get something out quick to show. 

 

 My sensibilities on these type events lean towards a cinema verite style so in the rare case I get to edit my own footage I look for unique moments. I like a flawed image so i use a lot of windows. The gh4 does seem to have a little more dr over the gh3, but not much. My opinion is the jump from gh2->3 offered a larger increase in visual quality, for how I shoot. The gh4 in some regards handles images close to the gh3 but with better fleshtones and 4k. The 4k shouldn't be dismissed though because it adds a new dimension to the image beyond clarity, which I'm at loss to describe. Maybe you could say it makes it more of what it already is... if that makes sense. Its really cool to be at the limit of your glass. I've shoot some neat stuff with vintage glass in 4k. 

 

 I haven't really done very much in post with gh4 footage so I can't say. I don't think its going to be a huge leap of gh3.
