    The audio was pretty off except for  some of the ambient / tool noises. With a piece like this the audio drives the piece and brings the viewer in - for your next video try and get a lav or a shotgun in close to really get the timbre  and bass of your subject's voice - it will be a pain to sync up (or not if you dont button off during the interview)  - but that's why we pay extra for Gh4 4s with audio inputs (works great with the Rode Film maker wireless mic system)  - or have a sound guy (my budgets usually dont allow for this luxury but its so good when the budget is there)

    There is some good free production  music you can download on youtube  -the background soundtrack was pretty jarring in parts...

    Agree. A shotgun and a lav is on my next to buy list. I am still learning how to mix the audio tracks so having trouble getting the level right.

    I have now graded the video with filmconvert. I'm not sure it's better but it has a different look. See what you guys think.

    When I shot that video portrait of the leather artisan I had an H1 on a small tripod a few feet away from my subject. It still recorded the background air conditioner noise but not as much. A lavalier would have been better. I find the in camera microphone is acceptable for ambient sound or if the subject is close by in a quiet room. So for home video like birthday party in my house it was quite adequate. Outside or if the subject is far away an external recording system is obviously better. I have try attaching the H1 to the hot shoe directly but I pick up a lot of handling noise of the camera. I am planning to buy a RODE videomicro, which has a  shock mount , to attach to the hotshoe and feed that to the H1.

    Total NOOB here. Bought  the gx85 a month ago as a tool to learn how to  shoot video. Steep learning curve. A few books, Google and forum like this taught me everything so far. Went to a video portrait workshop organized by a local camera store on Thursday night. They had a local artisan there for us to shoot. Three light set up. Did a quick edit with Resolve. Learning as I go. I think it is a fantastic camera.

    New to this forum. Looks like the video link I posted above did not change to an embedded player automatically. Will try it a different way to see if it works
