In NY and LA Theatres January 2026 – major new movie Magellan is shot on the Panasonic GH7

With really filmic results, the filmmaker Lav Diaz decided to use the most compact Super 16mm rig out-there – the Panasonic GH7. It has a hypnotic hybrid documentary-cinematic look and the look of Super 16mm film, showing that the format of Micro Four Thirds is still every bit as brilliant in the right hands as full frame or Super 35mm – despite the large-sensor-craze of the 2020s!

What next for Micro Four Thirds?

The Panasonic GH7 I believe to be the final model, but the second hand value of some Micro Four Thirds cameras has been on the increase. Could the system still find it’s way to co-exist with a legion of cheap and small full frame cameras, or is it game over?

I will always remember what a Leica manager in Germany said to me, which went like this: “I have read your publication today, and I have to admit that the tone is from my point of view unreasonable. However, we respect that journalists can make up their mind independently. But I think even for your reputation within the worldwide video community this article might not be helpful.”
