Reviews
“The BGH1 is the seventh Panasonic camera approved by Netflix. Furthermore, another interesting fact is, that the Panasonic S1H which is another Netflix approved, was (and still is) the first mirrorless in that prestigious list.”

“I was wondering why this was a big deal until I saw the SDI out and timecode / genlock ports. This is going to be a camera rigged into arrays, setup as a livestream squad, flown on drones, etc. “
