Panasonic Broadcast & Television Systems

Hey @Panasonic I have noticed some serious issues within the sensors pixel array, currently I have hundreds of stuck pixels on my sensor that pixel refresh does not seem to resolve making it horrible for any long exposures I take which are almost always at ISO 200… Since my gh4 is rendered useless for anything I capture at night I have since moved back to my gh3 which captures a much cleaner usable image. Any suggestions would help as I would hate to believe your technology get worse as the years progress, please prove me wrong! If I can provide any useful information I would be happy to do so as I would really like to resolve these issues ASAP!

AVOID SENDING YOUR CAMERA IN FOR REPAIR HERE!!! I was quoted roughly $ 500 to have my Panasonic HMC-​150 cracked LCD screen repaired. I figured, it’s worth it, I like my machines to be immaculate. When they received it, they sent me a quote for ONE THOUSAND EIGHTY TWO DOLLARS. Ridiculous! I paid $ 40 to have it shipped down to them… now I have to eat that. They were «gracious» enough to offer a 20% discount, but that’s still $ 300 more than I was initially quoted. Had I been quoted $ 1082 initially, I never would have sent them my camera in the first place. The process is about as unofficial as possible: I never received any kind of «approve your quote online», and they asked for me to send them my credit card information over an unencrypted email for crying out loud. What a rip off. The manager ended up knocking my $ 50 return shipment fee down to $ 20, and then he waived it. But they also charged me tax for their minimum evaluation fee of $ 130??? I’m a Washington resident, not a California one??? RIDICULOUS!!!
