Kloner - I'm interested in learning details about the vid you posted. I thought HDMI was crippled for anything except playback on this cam. How were you framing? And was this shot UHD 30p? Smoke / steam coming from top of building looks super weird. Was the shutter speed set really high? I gave up on this cam for aerial but your post is making me reconsider.
I read it has an NTSC output.
Agreed on the disappointment end. But it's really nothing new from big camera manufacturers. They're just trying to protect sales of GH4's and above right? I know a few guys (myself included) who had high hopes for this little cam. But in hindsight, it was pretty dumb of me think that they would actually enable external recording / monitoring from it. Will just to stay with my GH4 for now (which is still pretty damn amazing for the price).
Maybe the hack community will figure it out.. Long shot, but a slim possibility....
