I have a GH6. I managed to get this a few months ago when Amazon discounted it. I paid approximately $2,000 Canadian where the camera stores were selling it for just under $3,000. I shoot live theatre, concerts and dance shows. I also have two GH5's and one GH5 Mk 2. I record with Atomos Ninjas and one thing I really like about the GH6 is I can record ProRes internally. I have a 2 TB CF Express card so in addition to recording the 4K on the Ninja, I record 5.7 K ProRes internally. This doesn't just mean backup, it means that should I wish, I can punch in. I power all my cameras with a USB power source and a D Tap to power the Ninja.

@aiseurnae5976 13 дней назад

Can't agree more. The best thing about this camera are the colors. But the best thing about the GH5 are the fine details and Open Gate 60fps. And the best thing about the G9II is the AF. It seems we never get a perfect camera.

@artistjoh 13 дней назад

Your videos keep getting better. You have refined your story telling to a perfect blend of entertaining but with facts and real world experience. This is the mark of all the best RU-vid channels. I have always loved your more down to Earth approach to MFT, and you are not wrong about that price advantage. Just shows how much GH6 sales must have crashed after the GH7 announcement. I, like a lot of people are saving pennies to get a GH7 eventually, but in the sensible real world, I am very happy chugging along with my GH5 II and GH5s, and for stills, I still grab the G9. We are blessed with an abundance of larger body Lumix choices. We just need to convince Panasonic that compact MFT will be a viable path if they introduce compacts with PDAF and flippy screens. There is no shortage of us who prefer MFT to L-mount, and want more of this attention to the MFT ecosystem.

Picking one up for 1k on Monday and I'm selling my g95 towards it so 600 outta pocket. Being the gh7 is 2200, the GH6 is still a very great camera for all it has and is capable of coming from the GH5. For every thing I do with mine, it will be plenty good and still something to grow into. Also heard the image on the GH6 looks a little better and not as digital as the GH7 but that's just what I heard. Super excited to get it Monday

You will love it and will feel like you will never need to upgrade. I just bought another one.

@od628 13 дней назад

I've never used Dynamic Range Boost in my GH6, and have been happy with only the natural profile. The colors and footage are astounding. If you want 32 bit float, mount a $99 Zoom H1 essential which has a 1/4 20 thread on the bottom, right where you need it. Yes, you have to sync the audio, but it's not that big of a deal. Also keeps you from spending another $500 plus adding a giant mic. To anyone on the fence, I would opt for the GH6. The value that you get now with the GH7 out is the perfect time to snatch one up. To note, I have never experienced the streaking issue I have heard of and seen others mention. I always like to say, what professional movie/production set uses autofocus? This is a professional camera.

Shane - also pretty amazing is that the S5II is selling for AU$2039 (US$1359)! So duty free that is about AU$1855 or US$1236! B&H is selling it for US$1997! So anyone who wants to buy a few S5II should just fly to Australia for a short holiday and the savings buying here duty free will pay for the trip! Also the S5IIX is selling for AU$2292… amazing value… But the S9 is AU$2399 and the G9II is AU$2421. Doh! 🤣

@ramblingcameraman990 12 дней назад

Just picked up an open box GH6 WITH Leica 12-60 lens for $500 from Best Buy a couple weeks ago. Absolute steal, especially since I sold my old GH6 body a few months ago for $1100 and upgraded to G9II as my A cam. The lens alone is worth $500, so I’ll sell that (already have one) and I picked up my B cam for free! 😅

@daniel-ortiz1982 13 дней назад

Still rocking the GH6 in 2024 and beyond. I have a ton of Leica lenses the Leica 12-35 f/2.8 is my favorite.... Hurts to say this but I think Lumix made it to the autofocus party a little late, Sony definitely has the crown in that department. I recently picked up the Sony A7Cii over the S9, lack of an EVF and physical shutter was a deal breaker for me. Great content, I really enjoy the autofocus test you’ve been doing lately.

@castielvargastv7931 7 дней назад

I tried the 7c the view finder , the display and the ibis are horrible. The view finder is unusuable so i dont mind if the s9 has none. Overall the s9 gives me much more for less money and i never use mechanical shutter anyway

@pragmaticfilmmaking 13 дней назад

Things like e-stabilisation could easily be added to the GH6. I'm so tempted to get a third body, as I've seen one used for £850, but I'm holding off on buying any more Lumix cameras. What if the GH7 doesn't sell? Will they abandon that, too?

@newfoundmass 12 дней назад

If you don't think you'll just end up getting multiple GH7s within a year then why not get another one? But if you think there's even a small chance you'll end up getting multiple GH7s then I'd save the money or just go straight to the GH7 set up. It's really only a good value if you get a lot out of the camera, meaning it'll be a work horse for years to come. It'd be a good deal for those G85, GH4 and GH5 shooters out there who are low budget and haven't upgraded yet. For the rest of us though, I don't really know that the value is there even at 50% off.

@adidabax6809 13 дней назад

Love my GH6, but in the US no one's paying B&H prices. $2,200 is the same as GH7. Best Buy - our big box clearance stores - had it for dirt cheap open box for under $1k, but clearance in the 1.5k range. I got mine in 6/23 for $1,200 from Amazon, so I wonder what they'll do, but no way they'll keep it the same as the GH7 where they even have any GH6 in stock.

@ElMundoDuro 12 дней назад

I have thought about selling my GH6 to fund the purchase of a GH7. But with the announcement of the GH7 the market for used GH6 cameras is saturated and a used camera is much less than a new one, especially a new GH7. I think I will just have to wait on the GH7.

Gh6 works well with lumix and leica lenses but the ibis is almost useless with wide primes without lens IS because corners are warping no matter how steady i hold the camera. I hope pana updates the e-stab in gh6.

@filipmichalsaffray441 13 дней назад

Hi Shane, Sure GH6 ist good except AF...but buying used even better I saw one model running 799 € used...body only because of the GH7 going out the prices in used market shifted...you get a GH5 for 450 €, GH5s for 550-600 and GH6 for 799 which was the price of GH5s one year ago... IMHO because of how good the GH7 is except putting dual (triple) ISO inside a possible GH7"S" I think we maximized the quality of MFT in GH7 it means you buy a GH7 and use it 5 years minimum without body refresh...what brings you a GH6 if after some times you figured out that the GH7 was a better choice....for me if you buy sub 1000€ or around 800€ used that a great price worst case scenario you sell it for 500€ and you lost 300€ if you buy new now for even 1300€ and after one year you sell it for 700€ you loose 600€ which is the double ...😅😅😅 Long term GH7 new make more sense short term GH6 used sub 1k€ at least in EU is probably better...GH6 is a robust camera which I have no problem buying used like GH5...

@rghgamer5368 13 дней назад

Oh come on. I really wanted to go to sleep but now I have to watch your video otherwise I am going to be thinking about it in my sleep. Seriously now thought for filmmaking the gh5ii(the gh5 doesnt have vlog but other than that its great) and gh6 are great cameras and for a fraction of their true value simply because everyone sells them right now. I would like one but I think a s5 would suit me better due to dynamic range and photo capabilities. And you can find one as of right now used for 500-600€ for a gh5 and about 1200€ for a gh6 without the price drop. However no one is going to buy used if they cost more than new so the price for a used one will drop to a sub 1k€ at about 600-700€ on average meaning that its DEFINATELY worth it. I mean 600€ for 6k recording? I had bought a sony a6300 body only for more than that and it isnt even close it quality. Its kind of the same thing that happened with gpus a couple of years back.
