There is no comparsion with the GH4 and the other three. It isa much better quality recording.
Using some test footage from a preproduction GH4 model with an early firmware (0.5), I conducted a series of quick grading presets tests to discover the latitude of the GH4’s footage when it comes to grading.
There’s a significant improvement over the GH3 due to:
1- GH4 has a flat cinema color profile (CineD) which offers more latitude especially in the highlights and shadows.
2- GH4 quadrupled the bit rate of the GH3 at 50FPS from 50 Mbps to 200 Mbps. Quite a step up...!!!

Edited in Final cut X using the following plugins:
Color Grading Central – LUT Utility
colorgradingcentral.com/lututility
This is a great tool that lets you apply 3D LUTs to your footage from within FCPX.
In this test I’ve used both LUTs to emulate film stock and looks.

Motion VFX - mLooks
motionvfx.com/mplugs-30.html
Another great tool to let you apply a look emulating famous Hollywood looks or famous film processes.
This plugin would usually push the footage to its limits as it’s much more dramatic impact compared to applying a simple Film emulator LUT. Yet, the GH4 footage seems to have accepted the challenge.
I’ve tweaked each look slightly to achieve those results.

Film Convert

This is a genius plugin that would offer your digital footage an instant authentic Film Stock look. The guys at Film Convert have mapped the most common digital cameras in the market as well as the most common film stocks used in the industry to offer you the closest film look match based on your camera profile.
Yet you can get really interesting results when you start mixing different camera inputs that do not match your camera profile to different film stocks.
Again, the GH4 was holding perfectly and offered very interesting results.
