I couldnt believe my eyes i was searching ebay and saw this auction for a like new red epic-m with the monitor and sidehandle and the highest bid is currently 4,250 and its ending in a day? It'll go higher for sure and I dont have the money for it now but mannn... I can't believe the deals you can get on this camera that used to cost like 50,000 dollars! I'm super shocked. Amazing how fast technology devalues things. Here is the link if anyone is interested. https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/231865245670 although now i see the seller has 0 feedback... Maybe too good to be true?

Wow looks great Ed! You always produce great looking work. Would love to get that LUT!

I'm confused, was this supposed to be your example of good footage or bad footage?

Interesting so it's basically an accelerometer for your camera. I remember thinking that someone should have this to make 3d Tracking camera movements in post production much easier but i guess it works for stabilizing footage too. It looks way superior to the warp stabilizer in after effects. If you don't have crazy camera movement then the crop will be much less and maybe you can maintain some resolution.

Oh cool, yeah didn't think of that!

So just in case anybody was wondering. I just tried to order the V-log from the Panasonic website. I chatted with a representative and the lady said that the VLOG update can be bought and applied to GH4s even if they were bought from outside the United States. HOWEVER, you cannot buy the VLOG from overseas, even if you have a US mailing address and credit card. The website does not allow purchases made from overseas at all. Here's the transcript of my whole chat. Jessica: Hello! I am a Panasonic Product Specialist.
