Download or read book The Panasonic Gh4 Menu System Simplified written by David Thorpe and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-07-17 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What's the difference between Self Timer and Shutter Delay? Between AFS and AFF? How can Disp.Style change your viewing experience? The menu system of the Panasonic GH4 is one of the best presented and most logically laid out of any digital camera. But with 32 pages containing 149 items, many with their own sub-menus, the manual for the GH4 is labyrinthine. Many photographers faced with this, one of the most sophisticated digital cameras ever produced with its seemingly endless array of options, never fully get to grips with it. That needn't be you.This book offers a blow by blow explanation of the menu items, what they do and why you might want to utilize them, in non-technical language. The last chapter goes through every menu item in order and tells you how the author has his camera set up. You can simply copy these settings to your GH4 and within a few minutes be out and about taking pictures with confidence. While my professional expertise is in stills photography, I cover the video aspects of the GH4 in some detail but would never lay claim to the same expertise that I do in stills.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH4: The Unofficial Quintessential Guide provides a wealth of information and professional insights for owners of this powerful HD camera. With its electronic viewfinder and interchangeable lenses, the GH4 is capable of not only recording professional-quality still images, but has the added ability to record HD video as well. The mirrorless design enhances the camera’s versatility beyond that of most digital single lens reflex (DSLR) cameras.

It is smaller than a typical DSLR in both size and weight, and retains automatic focusing while recording videos—a capability that is missing in many DSLR cameras. With the GH4, Panasonic has significantly expanded the video capabilities beyond those of previous models. Among the improvements is the camera's ability to record 4K video and save the movie to the internal memory card. Along with these powerful functions comes complexity, and that is where this essential guide comes in. Authors Brian Matsumoto and Carol Roullard explore and explain the features and capabilities of the GH4 in detail, as they cover everything from the basic features of the camera to numerous advanced photographic applications. The informative text is illustrated with example images throughout. Readers will learn how to: • Control the most basic camera functions—focus and exposure • Navigate the camera’s menu system • Achieve a range of artistic effects using various camera settings • Use the camera’s automated controls, and override those controls to obtain better exposure • Use the GH4 in its video mode to obtain 4K and HD videos • Expand the camera’s use by mounting it on a telescope or microscope • And much more…

Download or read book The Panasonic G9 Menu System Simplified written by David Thorpe and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2018-03-24 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The G9 is Panasonic's first top of the line camera specifically designed for stills rather than being a stills/ video hybrid. With 60fps burst shooting, class leading stabilization, a user configurable menu system, 80Mp High Resolution mode and many other high end features it is of necessity a complex camera. As with any digital camera the heart of the machine is the menu system, consisting of around 180 entries, many with their own sub menus offering many hundred of options. It is no surprise then that even experienced users can find themselves scratching their heads as they wade through the mass of options.. This book goes through each and every every menu choice and explains what it does and why you might want to do it. It doesn't try to teach you photography. You wouldn't have chosen a G9 if you didn't already have some expertise. What my books aims to do is to familiarise yourself with the G9 and learn to tailor it to your own taste and needs. Having done that, you I think you will find using the G9 not only a pleasure but inspiring as well.

Download or read book The Panasonic GX9 Menu System Simplified written by David Thorpe and published by . This book was released on 2018-06-02 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Panasonic GX9 is a direct descendant of the much loved and still much used GX7. It has all the improvement you would expect, better stabilization, quieter shock free shutter and higher pixel count. As important as all the technological progress is, it wouldn't mean a thing if the camera had lost the charm and sheer usability of the GX7. With its trim and compact rangefinder style body the GX9 remains Panasonic's little Leica.Like all Micro Four Thirds cameras, the GX9 is a highly complex digital imaging machine at heart and for anyone new to the system or upgrading from a smart phone it can seem quite off-putting. It needn't be. If you want a simple life, just put the G9 in iA and it is no more difficult to use than your phone. On the other hand, you don't buy a quality camera just to do selfies for Facebook and snapshots for Instagram. The GX9 is capable of just about any type of work, from 30 frames per second speed burst for the sports photographer to quiet and instant focusing for street work.There's a lot to know about the Panasonic GX9. LVF Display Speed? ESHTR? Some settings are crucial, some just good to know. This book doesn't try to teach you photography. Its aim is to familiarise you with the menu and settings of the GX9, what they do and why you might want to use them. It is true that the camera is a tool but just knowing your scales on a violin makes you a better musician, so mastery of the GX9 menu will make you a better photographer.The menu system and controls of the GX9 are well presented and logically laid out but with 6 main containing around 200 menu items, many of those with sub menus, even the most experienced user will sometimes find themselves scratching their head and wondering what an entry means. This small book goes through every menu choice and control and explains (a) what it does and (b) why you might want to do it. It may not inspire you in a literary sense but with its help you may find a GX9 tailored to your personal taste inspiring to use.
