Re: The $199 Z Camera E1 vs Panasonic GH4: 4K Video

Question: With the new firmware, is the 4K bit rate still 60 Mbps, or have they upped it to 100 Mbps?

Static subjects really tell us nothing about the ability of the codec to record real video. You know, video where things actually move, often very quickly.

For $199 I think that is quite a bargain, assuming it can record moving subjects without artifacts.

Oh, you really do need to make it clear which camera is taking which shot when you redo your side-by-side comparison.
