theEgg Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Found a big thread about the GM1 here, and the question was asked several times but no owner answered. How long can video can be recorded on a single charge with the Panasonic gm1? Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonpais Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Panasonic rates the battery life in video at an overly optimistic 40 minutes. In fact, it is at most probably around 25-30 minutes. You'll definitely need several spares if you're planning on shooting all day long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzynormal Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Last week I used it as a b cam on a shoot and just let it run using the OEM bat... Ran for just over 60 minutes. 30p 1080. theEgg and fuzzynormal 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzynormal Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 That's uninterrupted recording, btw. I have a handful of 3rd party batteries that only do about 1/2 the juice of the OEM. Of course the 3rd party bats are a lot cheaper. theEgg 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theEgg Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 That seems amazing for 600mA. Thanks for replying. I looked around the net and couldn't find an answer. Shame the camera seems perfect other than small battery and lacks 1080p60. Though the latter I suppose I could do without and can always get extra batteries I suppose.

fuzzynormal Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 can always get extra batteries I suppose. Yep. Battery swaps are pretty easy and the 3rd party batteries are cheap. Personally, I really like this camera. It's unassuming and very stealthy, but has awesome quality. Fun stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
