I'm trying to figure out how to hardwire tether my GH4 to a Mac computer. Right now we are using a 40D with the EOS Utility software. It seems like the software choice for Panasonic is the PhotoFunStudio. Herein lies the problem; PhotoFunStudio is a Windows only program. We do run Parallels on our systems, so that shouldn't be a problem. With the Panasonic GH4, you have a wide set of variable frame rates to play with: In frames per second: 2, 15, 26, 28, 30, 32, 34, 45, 60, 75, 90 and 96. Footage shot at 96fps will render out slowed down 4 times if shooting at 24p (96 divided by 24) and it does look sweet! Tethering a LUMIX GH4 to your computer is quick and easy with Tether Tools gear and USB Tether for Lumix from Promote Systems. LUMIX Luminary and Celebrity Fashion Photographer Michael Grecco explains the benefits from his experience from tethered photography with his LUMIX GH4. PromoteĀ® Systems introduces two exclusive tethering solutions for the Panasonic LUMIX DMC-GH4 camera. USB Tethersoftware, designed from the ground up in cooperation with Panasonic developers, allows users to easily control the LUMIX DMC-GH4 from a PC or laptop.
