Buggy Livestreaming Camera Ruins Shots

This camera is not worth it and seems like an overpriced mess. The livestreaming feature is a total disaster and causes a lot of headaches. The only good thing about it is the quality of the footage it captures but that's not enough to save this product .Do not waste your money on this buggy and unreliable piece of electronics..

Pros
  • High-quality video output
Cons
  • Expensive compared to consumer-grade cameras

Not Worth A Penny good for me

As an electronics enthusiast, I recently tested a digital camera for live streaming. Unfortunately, this camera failed miserably. The video quality was subpar, even on its best setting, which made the camera rather useless for professional work. on the positive side, the camera was lightweight. However that's not enough to justify the hefty price tag. I would not recommend this camera to anyone....

Pros
  • High-quality cinematic footage and live streaming capabilities.
Cons
  • Limited compatibility with accessories from other brands, requiring additional budget for proprietary equipment.

Wouldn't recommend it to users who don't use GH5.

I was conflicted about the Lumix BGH1, but I went about my cautious ways, went to B&H and bought it. After hesitating before purchasing, I contacted B&H's Pro Video department, where, to my dismay, a video engineer worked. , got all my questions wrong, making this the first of many disappointments. Supposedly the Lumix BGH1 is a redesigned and improved GH5 camera housed in a box shape reminiscent of ZCam box cameras, but I soon found the workflow required quite a bit of learning. With no LCD…

Pros
  • BOX CAMERA IDEAL FOR LIVE STREAMING, STREAMING AND MOVIES: Compact and lightweight, the high-performance BGH1 camera is expandable and manages multiple cameras via Wi-Fi, Ethernet PoE+ and 3G-SDI.
Cons
  • Little things
