True Hybrid 4K Cinema & Stills Workhorse Fully Functional with Light Cosmetic Wear
The Panasonic Lumix GH4 is a legendary, true hybrid mirrorless camera body engineered to bridge the gap between professional still photography and high-bitrate broadcast cinema. Anchored by a 16.05-megapixel Digital Live MOS sensor and a quad-core Venus Engine processor, the GH4 captures razor-sharp JPEG and RAW images while simultaneously delivering broadcast-quality video. It natively records high-resolution cinematic DCI 4K (4096×2160) at 24p and UHD 4K (3840×2160) up to 30p internally to SD cards.
Built as a global system with switchable system frequencies (59.94 Hz, 50 Hz, and 24 Hz), it accommodates advanced video bitrates up to 200 Mbps All-Intra. Housed inside a splash- and dustproof magnesium alloy die-cast frame with a shutter mechanism rated for 200,000 actuations, this studio-ready workhorse features pro utilities like focus peaking, real-time 10-bit 4:2:2 HDMI output, and variable frame rates up to 96 fps in Full HD.
Please note: This camera body has been comprehensively bench-tested and is fully operational. It exhibits minor cosmetic scuffing on the bottom plate and a small scratch on the corner of the LCD monitor, but all buttons, dials, and electronic systems perform flawlessly.
Key Features & Technical Performance
16.05MP Live MOS Sensor & Venus Engine: High-speed sensor readout drastically minimizes rolling shutter artifacts. In tandem with the 4-CPU processor, it delivers accurate color reproduction, rich gradation, and an expanded low-light sensitivity ceiling of ISO 25,600.
Professional 4K Video Engine: Records internal 4:2:0 8-bit video in MOV, MP4, or AVCHD formats. It supports true digital cinema DCI 4K at 24p and UHD 4K at up to 29.97p at a robust 100 Mbps, alongside high-bitrate Full HD recording at up to 200 Mbps (All-Intra).
Real-Time 10-Bit HDMI Output: For uncompressed studio capture, the micro-HDMI port can output a clean, real-time 4:2:2 8-bit or uncompressed 4:2:2 10-bit signal directly to external monitors and recorders.
Variable Frame Rate (VFR) & Slow Motion: Allows for high-speed Full HD recording up to 96 fps, enabling fluid, stylized slow-motion playback internally without needing post-production processing.
Dual High-Speed OLED Displays: Features an ultra-sharp 2,359k-dot Live View Finder (LVF) and a 3.0″ 1,036k-dot free-angle touchscreen OLED rear monitor. Both panels feature a 10,000:1 contrast ratio for critical focus monitoring.
High-Speed 49-Point DFD Autofocus: Utilizes Contrast AF enhanced by Depth from Defocus (DFD) technology to achieve focus locks as fast as 0.07 seconds. Supports high-speed mechanical burst shooting up to 12 fps (Single AF) or up to 40 fps using the silent electronic shutter.
Item Condition & Diagnostic Notes
Functional & Button Status: FULLY FUNCTIONAL. Every physical input has been rigorously tested. All tactile buttons (including exposure compensation, ISO, and White Balance clusters), control dials, the rear directional pad, the touchscreen panel, and the articulating hinge function smoothly with snappy, responsive feedback.
Cosmetic Presentation: Good aesthetic condition overall with standard signs of professional tripod mounting. There are visible scuffs across the bottom of the body, accompanied by distinct scrub/rub marks concentrated directly around the metal 1/4″-20 tripod mount socket.
LCD Display Condition: The rear display glass is clear and responsive, exhibiting just one small, faint scratch located in the top right corner of the screen that does not obscure frame visibility or live-view monitoring.
Sensor & Electronics: The Micro Four Thirds imaging sensor is immaculate, clean, and free of dust or scratches. Internal Wi-Fi connectivity, the hot shoe, card slots, and all physical I/O ports (3.5mm microphone/headphone jacks) interface correctly.
