B And H Lighting

[0.04 lb] Purchased Panasonic Lumix GH2 from B%H. Sound was the question with clarity. I owned Sennheiser ENG Wireless Mics. But the miniplug to the camera was the problem. So a friend(sound engineer from Germany who is working with us advised me to look for a SC25 3.5mm to 2.5mm Stereo Output Cable rather than trying to buy a expensive separate microphone for the camera. So I bought and works fine. So I am happy in the end. Thanks to my friend and B&H for helping to have the accessory part.

[1x Barrel Input] I purchased a XF705 from B&H approximately 7 months ago. I have been waiting patiently for a FCPX upgrade to allow the H.265 files to be ingested to FCPX. Good News...with the recent upgrade to FCPX, ver 10.4.7, I can import the XF705 H.265 files directly into FCPX. I am running macOS Mojave, ver 10.14.6. My iMac computer was manufactured in late 2015. I have to use proxy files for editing, otherwise my computer hangs up.

[17 μm] Excellent camera, lens, and gimbal. Have only used h.264 codec even so the images are quite nice. Here is a link to some video of the bear mountain bridge i shot with no post color manipulation. https://youtu.be/_vV2VKpMios

[0.275 lb] I purchased this camera knowing that Adobe Premiere Pro would not import H.265, but I thought that Adobe would soon fix that problem. Sadly that is not the case as of this review in March of 2019.  I have been using my Atomos recorder as a work around.

[Dual Channel] Been a while since I have run AMD but I am not disappointed. In Davinci resolve it can encode 1080p30 h.264 video at 3x realtime speed. It can encode 4k30 h.264 in realtime or sometimes a little faster. I didn't use the stock cooler and opted for an overkill Noctua one instead.

I think I was one of the first ones to order the GH6 from B&H (right at 5pm when it became available). I love this camera. I have 2 GH5S's and I wish I had 2 more GH6's instead. V-log L in the Gh5S was too noisy so I use HLG and get a beautiful, low noise image. But the GH6 in V-Log or HLG are a step above when exposed correctly. Very clean. I have shot in prores @ 5.7K and in H.265 @ 5.7K. The H.265 is a little hard on my desk top editing computer (10 core, water cooled i9). But Prores plays like butter. The only thing is with Prores @ 1.9G per secound, my Angelbird 512G CF Express card only has 34minutes but in H.265 it is over 5 hours. The 1.3G per second Prores records for 54 minutes. Big difference! I recommend the Angelbird 512GB AV PRO CFexpress 2.0 Type B SE memory card for $180.00. It will record all the speed hungry codecs. Most people give this camera a hard time because of auto-focus. I don't care about auto-focus. I have 3 Meike primes, 16mm, 25mm and 35mm and a DZO 20-70mm zoom. Also a Olympus Pro 12-100mm lens. It is my walk around photo lens although I some times use it for video too. The more I use the GH6 the more I love it. Maybe down the road I'll replace my GH5S's with Gh6's. I can always wish can't I.

[16] I do a lot of live performance and have been using the Canon XF 300s with good success, so for me the upgrade to the 705 was a no brainer. Ive only had the 705 for about a week now but I did a 90 minute test filming in camera to H.265/HEVC 4:2:2 10 bit and outputting via 12G SDI to a Shogun Inferno set to Pro Res HD. After the 90 minutes of filming, the Shogun Pro Res amounted to a 1.2 TB file in my Macs Premiere Pro. However, I was unable to import the H.265 from the camera file into Premiere Pro CC 2018. I assume that Adobe will soon provide a firmware update to allow H.265 files to work in Premiere Pro without having to convert them. In any event, Im very impressed with the camera and am looking forward to taking advantage of all the improvements they have made over the XF 300.

[23] This little thing is super awesome! its not very bright, and i wish it had a lower codec like h.264. but it does its job and is simple and cheap! Also I hope they come out with a p-tap power option, that would be nice..
