Hello there, I am looking for the lowest cost camera (under $1000) in the used or new market with the below specs. It will be used to study still photography and cinematography:
SPECS:
4K or Ultra 4K
DSLR mirror or no mirrorless
Capable of recording video in RAW or at something slightly similar e.g. V-log
Not interested in something that can only do 1080p video recording.
The only lowest cost camera (under $1000) with the above specs that I have narrowed it down to is the Panasonic Lumix GH4.
Question 1: Do you have any other alternative recommendations that fit with the above specs and pricing?
Also:
Shane Hurlbut, Cinematographer and member of the ASC, has done some really good work. I actually like his style in the movies he has worked on. However I read his assistant's article below which, to me, showed that Shane felt that the GH4 was not 'cinematic worthy' and felt more like a broadcast video camera.
Question 2: What are your thoughts on Shane's view below? I ask because it makes me hesitate in choosing the GH4 to learn cinematography or eventually work on cinematic projects in future with that camera.
