I have an hcx1500 and it is a very capable camera, but this video demonstrates your skills at videography above anything else and for that reason alone I loved it.
Recently picked one up for aviation (needed the zoom) and thus far i'm really impressed. I'm still figuring out the movement, settings and editing workflow but the cam is bang for bucks so far.
Yeah, though with some shutter speed adjustments and a bit of grading some of the highlights can be brought back. The original shots were in 4:2:2 but I didn't grade any of them here.
If Panasonic ever releases a similar camcorder with the same form factor and capabilities, but with a 1 inch sensor, I will throw my money at them immediately.
Yeah, If I was filming mostly indoors or at night I would definitely need a larger sensor. Fortunately for most of where I'm using this the ND filter is a must-have and there is more than enough light for the smaller sensor.
Pregunta. hay diferencia de calidad entre la grabacion directo de 1080p de esta camara y una grabacion de 4K y l uego descalar a 1080p ??? escuche que la calidad varia. podrias aclarar eso????
Por lo que puedo decir, la calidad es la misma. Tanto 4K como 1080P tienen modos 4:2:2 de 10 bits a 60 fps. La velocidad de bits también es la misma a 200 Mbps.
The camera has a 96GB cap on file size, so you will need 2 SD cards and relay recording enabled. That will keep recording continuously and will swap to the next card when one runs out of space. According to Panasonic, the temperature operation range is 32 - 104F. 100 degrees and being in direct sunlight might push the camera over that limit though.
Unfortunately I am not sure there is a way to add additional languages that are not in the operating system. You can keep an eye on Panasonic's firmware updates to see when they add new ones in official patches: av.jpn.support.panasonic.com/support/global/cs/e_cam/download/x2000/index.html
Yes most of the time I used manual mode. Blue hue could be the white balance setting... Right out of the box the two defaults are either everything very orange or everything very blue. However, you can change the white balance to be more accurate to the exact lighting you're in.
Spec wise, the Sony has a 1" sensor which means it is going to be much, MUCH more capable in low light. The Panasonic has a smaller sensor, but it can shoot at 4k/60fps, can shoot at higher biterates, has built in ND filters, and has nearly twice as much optical zoom. For my use case, I find the Panasonic's features a lot better. But if I were shooting more indoors or dusk/dawn/night footage I think the Sony would be the one to choose.
@@hunsberg my primary video footage is indoor music concerts where lighting is most challenging with being very dark and then other areas being very bright due to overhead spotlights, etc. It sounds like for my needs, the Sony would work best unless you had an entirely different make/model recommendation. Your videos are great and I found them by browsing around for other top camcorder models videos so thanks! :)
If money is not an issue, take a look at the Panasonic HC-X2. It has the advantages of both models (20x zoom, ND filters, and 1" sensor size). Of course it also costs considerably more and is a physically larger camera.
This camera is a like a GH5 but with a sensor that you typically see in cheap cell phones or older GoPro cameras. Becouse the sensor is small it does not need that much processing power so it easily can do 60fps 4K without breaking a sweat just make sure you are outside in the daylight or a studio with a lot of bright lights. When you are outside internal ND's work well, The camera will even suggest the ND setting.

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
Very capable camcorder in day light settings. Love the incredible zoom.
I want one!! What an amazing picture.

Depth of field looks nice, great looking images.
It does!
Very nice buddy
God bless you
Good stuff! Waterfall shots are mesmerizing
Thanks!
Really nice. I've got so much to learn ;)
Thanks!
Gracias por tus Maravillosas tomas de video, Thank you for your greats video shots.......Saludos desde Venezuela, regards from Venezuela
Thanks!
wow great camera. seems only flaw is the highlight clipping. wish it had a tad more dynamic range for a smoother highlight rolloff.
Yeah, though with some shutter speed adjustments and a bit of grading some of the highlights can be brought back. The original shots were in 4:2:2 but I didn't grade any of them here.

They just have.... it's the HC-X20
Hcx2
nice!
Thanks!

Great quality.. its handheld or gimbal?
Thanks! Some of the still shots used a tripod, but everything else was handheld. The camera has very good optical stabilization.
@@hunsberg Glad to know about stabilisation 👍🏻 Your input is helpful. Thank so much ❤️
Great stuff! Can this camera record for two hours straight walking at up to 100 degrees, at 4k/60 HDR without overheating?

@@hunsberg Thank you! Susbscribed
It has an internal cooling fan it doesn't have any of these problems
Tell me, the camera does not have the required language, where and how can I install it, thank you in advance

What recording settings are you using? 1080 at 60fps or 30fps?
4k at 24fps and the shutter speed for the most part was 1/48.
The slow mow shots were filmed at 4k 60fps and then slowed down to 24fps
@@hunsberg do you record in manual mode? I’ve tried to but I get a blue hue to my image and idk how to adjust it.
Yes most of the time I used manual mode. Blue hue could be the white balance setting... Right out of the box the two defaults are either everything very orange or everything very blue. However, you can change the white balance to be more accurate to the exact lighting you're in.
How does this compare to a Sony FDR AX700?
