Lens recommendation for filming football with GH4
  • Hi I wondered if any of you had a lens recommendation for filming a football match using a GH4? I'm going to be covering a couple of matches (one of which might be at night under floodlights). I was thinking of having a friend use a 35-70mm on a tripod and I would use the 42.5mm or 12-35mm on a stabilser following the action.The lenses I have are the 42.5 and the 12-35mm so I was wondering which telephoto to get 35-70 or 100-300.

    I assume that the shutter speed stays at 1/50 for videoing sport? I'm not looking to film the whole match just key moments of one player that I would edit down to a 5 minute promo.

    Thanks for any advice.
